Product Overview
This viscosity standard is engineered for precise calibration of viscometers and rheometers across a broad temperature range, ensuring reliable measurements in laboratory and industrial settings. The standard is formulated to deliver consistent kinematic viscosity values at critical reference points: 30 cSt at 20°C, 24 cSt at 25°C, 15 cSt at 37.78°C, 14 cSt at 40°C, and 10 cSt at 50°C. Its analytical reagent (AR) grade guarantees minimal impurities, reducing variability in experimental results. The liquid form allows for easy handling and dispensing, while its stability under controlled conditions ensures long-term accuracy. Designed to meet international standards, this product is compatible with capillary, rotational, and vibrational viscometers, making it a versatile choice for calibration protocols. The 500 ml pack size balances convenience with cost-efficiency, catering to both routine lab use and specialized research applications. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality checks to verify viscosity consistency, traceability, and compliance with ISO guidelines, providing users with confidence in their instrumentation and data integrity.
FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this viscosity standard under ideal storage conditions?
The standard remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture when stored in its original sealed container at 15–25°C, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
2. Can this standard be used with digital and analog viscometers?
Yes, it is compatible with both digital and analog viscometers, including capillary, rotational, and vibrational types, provided the instrument’s operating temperature range aligns with the standard’s calibrated temperatures.
3. Are there lower or higher viscosity alternatives available in the same series?
This series includes standards ranging from 5 cSt to 1000 cSt. For alternatives, check the product catalog for standards calibrated at 5 cSt, 100 cSt, or 500 cSt, depending on your requirements.
4. How should this standard be handled to avoid contamination?
Use clean, dry pipettes or dispensing equipment dedicated solely to this standard. Avoid exposing the liquid to airborne contaminants or reusable containers that may introduce impurities.
5. Is a certificate of analysis provided with each batch?
Yes, every batch includes a certificate of analysis detailing viscosity values at specified temperatures, traceability to NIST standards, and lot-specific data for quality assurance.
