Product Overview
This density standard (0.9514 g/ml at 15°C) is a certified reference material designed for precise calibration of density meters, hydrometers, and other volumetric instruments. Manufactured under strict quality controls, it ensures traceability to international standards, making it reliable for critical measurements in laboratories. The solution is chemically stable, resistant to evaporation, and packaged in airtight containers to prevent contamination. Its low thermal expansion coefficient minimizes temperature-induced errors, while the included certificate of analysis provides batch-specific data for compliance and auditing. Ideal for routine quality checks or validation protocols, this standard maintains accuracy over extended use, reducing recalibration frequency. The non-toxic, non-corrosive formulation ensures safe handling, and its compatibility with glass, plastic, and metal labware eliminates cross-contamination risks. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing to confirm homogeneity and long-term stability, guaranteeing consistent performance across diverse experimental conditions.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this density standard?
The standard remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened at 15–25°C. Once opened, use within 6 months for optimal accuracy.
2. Can this standard be used with digital density meters?
Yes, it is compatible with most digital density meters, including Anton Paar and Mettler Toledo models, provided the instrument supports manual calibration with CRM liquids.
3. How does temperature affect the density value?
The certified value (0.9514 g/ml) is valid at 15°C. For other temperatures, apply the temperature correction factor provided in the certificate of analysis.
4. Is this standard suitable for food or pharmaceutical testing?
While it meets general lab standards, verify compliance with specific regulatory requirements (e.g., USP, EP) for food/pharma applications, as additional documentation may be needed.
5. What alternatives exist for higher or lower density ranges?
For densities outside this range, consider our CRM standards at 0.692 g/ml (light liquids) or 1.330 g/ml (heavy liquids), available in the same pack sizes.
