Product Overview
Bismuth(III) nitrate oxide, Puratronic™ grade with 99.998% metals basis purity, is a high-performance chemical designed for demanding laboratory applications. This ultra-pure compound ensures minimal trace metal contamination, making it ideal for precision analytical work where accuracy is critical. The Puratronic™ designation guarantees rigorous quality control, with impurities reduced to parts-per-million levels, ensuring consistent results in sensitive experiments. Its stable crystalline form allows for easy handling and precise measurement, while the high bismuth content provides reliable stoichiometric reactions. The material’s low hygroscopicity enhances shelf stability, reducing the risk of moisture-induced degradation during storage. This product is particularly valued in advanced research settings where trace impurities could compromise experimental integrity. The 99.998% purity level meets the stringent requirements of modern analytical techniques, including spectroscopy and chromatography. Its uniform particle size distribution further contributes to reproducible results across multiple experimental batches.
FAQs
1. What is the difference between Puratronic™ and standard-grade bismuth nitrate oxide?
Puratronic™ grade undergoes additional purification steps to achieve 99.998% purity with significantly lower trace metal contaminants compared to standard grades, which typically have higher impurity levels.
2. Can this compound be used directly in aqueous solutions?
Yes, it dissolves readily in dilute nitric acid and can be used to prepare aqueous solutions, though the exact solubility depends on temperature and solution pH.
3. What is the typical shelf life of this product?
When stored in a tightly sealed container under dry conditions, the product maintains its purity for at least 24 months from the date of manufacture.
4. Are there any special handling precautions required?
While not highly hazardous, standard laboratory precautions should be followed, including wearing gloves and working in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhalation of fine particles.
5. How does the particle size affect its application?
The uniform fine particle size ensures consistent reaction rates and complete dissolution, which is particularly important in quantitative analytical procedures.
