Product Overview

The Zinc 10000 ppm ICP single-element standard is a high-purity liquid solution designed for precise calibration in inductively coupled plasma (ICP) spectroscopy. Formulated with ultra-pure zinc in a stable matrix, this standard ensures accurate and reproducible results in trace metal analysis. The 10000 ppm concentration provides a robust reference point for dilution series, making it ideal for creating working standards across a wide dynamic range. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control to guarantee consistency, with traceability to NIST or equivalent reference materials. The solution is prepared in high-grade acids to minimize contamination risks, ensuring long-term stability when stored properly. Compatible with ICP-OES and ICP-MS instruments, this standard delivers exceptional linearity and sensitivity for zinc determination. The liquid form allows for easy handling and precise aliquoting, reducing preparation errors. With a shelf life of at least 12 months under recommended storage conditions, this ICP standard offers both reliability and cost-effectiveness for laboratories requiring frequent zinc analysis.

FAQs

1. What is the matrix composition of this Zinc ICP standard?

This standard is prepared in a nitric acid matrix, typically around 2-5% concentration, to ensure complete dissolution and stability of the zinc element.

2. Can this standard be used for both ICP-OES and ICP-MS applications?

Yes, the 10000 ppm concentration is suitable for both techniques, though you may need to dilute it further for ICP-MS to stay within the optimal working range.

3. What is the recommended storage temperature for this standard?

Store the unopened bottle at 15-25°C in a tightly sealed container, away from direct sunlight and incompatible substances.

4. How often should I recalibrate my instrument using this standard?

For routine analysis, daily calibration verification is recommended, while full recalibration should be performed weekly or whenever the instrument undergoes maintenance.
