Product Name – Tin, 1000 ppm in HCl ICP single-element standard
Quantity/Pack Size – 100 ml
Form – Liquid
Grade – ICP-MS/AA Standard
Application – Trace metal analysis, atomic spectroscopy
Product Overview
This 1000 ppm Tin ICP single-element standard in 5% hydrochloric acid matrix is engineered for high-precision trace metal analysis in atomic spectroscopy applications. The solution is prepared using ultra-pure tin metal dissolved in high-purity hydrochloric acid, ensuring minimal interference from matrix effects. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to guarantee concentration accuracy within ±1% of the stated value. The standard is stabilized with trace amounts of nitric acid to prevent precipitation and maintain long-term stability. Packaged in HDPE bottles with tamper-evident seals, this standard is compatible with most ICP-OES and ICP-MS instruments without requiring additional dilution for most applications. The low-particle formulation minimizes nebulizer clogging, while the acid matrix ensures complete ionization during plasma analysis. With a shelf life of 24 months when stored properly, this standard provides consistent performance for routine calibration and quality control procedures in analytical laboratories.
FAQs
1. What is the exact concentration of hydrochloric acid in this standard?
The standard is prepared in a 5% (v/v) hydrochloric acid matrix, which provides optimal stability for the tin solution while maintaining compatibility with most ICP instruments.
2. Can this standard be used directly for ICP-MS analysis without dilution?
For most ICP-MS applications, this 1000 ppm standard will require dilution to fall within the instrument’s linear range, typically between 1-100 ppb for tin analysis.
3. What materials are used for the bottle and cap to prevent contamination?
The standard is packaged in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles with polypropylene caps, both of which are acid-resistant and leach minimal trace metals.
4. How does the acid matrix affect the standard’s stability over time?
The hydrochloric acid matrix, combined with trace nitric acid, creates a stable environment that prevents tin precipitation and maintains concentration accuracy for up to 24 months when stored at room temperature.
5. What certification documentation is provided with this standard?
Each bottle includes a certificate of analysis detailing the exact concentration, batch number, expiration date, and quality control data from the manufacturing process.
