FAQs
What is the difference between calcium sulfate LR and AR grades?
LR (Laboratory Reagent) grade is suitable for most educational and general lab applications, while AR (Analytical Reagent) grade has higher purity for more sensitive analytical work. For most school and college experiments, LR grade provides excellent value.
Can I use this calcium sulfate as a food additive?
No, this product is specifically for laboratory use. Food-grade calcium sulfate undergoes different processing and certification. Always use chemicals only for their intended purposes.
How long does 500g of calcium sulfate LR last in typical lab use?
For occasional use in student labs, 500g can last several months. In research settings with frequent desiccant changes, you might go through it faster. The powder form allows precise measurement for small-scale applications.
Does eqipped provide certificates of analysis for this product?
Yes, we include manufacturer certificates with each shipment. You can also request additional documentation if needed for your quality control records.
What’s the best way to store calcium sulfate to maintain its effectiveness?
Store in its original container with the lid tightly closed. For long-term storage, consider adding a small silica gel packet to the container to absorb any moisture that might enter during opening.
