Product Overview
This 10 ppm Manganese ICP-ML single-element standard is a high-purity, traceable solution designed for precise elemental analysis in inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The standard is prepared in a 2% nitric acid matrix to ensure stability and minimize contamination risks, making it suitable for demanding laboratory applications. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to guarantee accuracy, with certification provided for traceability to NIST or equivalent reference materials. The solution is packaged in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles to prevent leaching and maintain integrity during storage. With a shelf life of 24 months when stored at room temperature, this standard eliminates the need for frequent recalibration, reducing operational downtime. The low concentration (10 ppm) ensures compatibility with sensitive instrumentation while maintaining linearity across calibration curves. Free from interfering elements, this standard delivers consistent performance for both routine and high-precision analytical workflows.
FAQs
1. What is the matrix composition of this Manganese standard?
The standard is prepared in a 2% nitric acid (HNO₃) matrix, which is commonly used in ICP applications to minimize polyatomic interferences and ensure stability.
2. Can this standard be used for both ICP-MS and ICP-OES?
Yes, the 10 ppm concentration is optimized for compatibility with both ICP-MS and ICP-OES instruments, though dilution may be required for specific applications.
3. How should this standard be stored to maintain accuracy?
Store the unopened bottle at room temperature (15–25°C) away from direct sunlight and sources of contamination. Once opened, reseal tightly after each use.
4. Is this standard traceable to a recognized reference material?
The standard is traceable to NIST or equivalent reference materials, with certification provided for lot-specific accuracy and uncertainty values.
5. What is the typical uncertainty range for this standard?
The expanded uncertainty is typically ≤2% at a 95% confidence level, as documented in the certificate of analysis included with each batch.
