Product Overview
The melting point standard set featuring benzophenone, benzoic acid, and anthraquinone is an essential tool for precise temperature calibration in laboratory settings. Each component in this set is meticulously purified to ensure consistent and reliable results, making it ideal for calibrating melting point apparatus. Benzophenone, with its well-defined melting point, serves as a benchmark for verifying instrument accuracy, while benzoic acid provides a secondary reference point for cross-verification. Anthraquinone, known for its sharp melting transition, further enhances the calibration process, ensuring that your equipment delivers accurate readings every time. The high-purity grade of these standards minimizes variability, allowing researchers and lab technicians to trust their measurements. Whether used in routine calibration or quality control procedures, this set guarantees precision and reproducibility, critical for maintaining the integrity of experimental data. The solid form of these standards ensures ease of handling and long-term stability, making them a practical choice for any laboratory environment.
FAQs
1. What is the melting point range for each component in this set?
Benzophenone has a melting point of approximately 48°C, benzoic acid melts at around 122°C, and anthraquinone has a melting point near 286°C.
2. Are these standards compatible with all melting point apparatus?
Yes, these standards are designed to be universally compatible with most melting point apparatus available in the market.
3. Can this set be used for calibrating other temperature-measuring devices?
While primarily intended for melting point apparatus, these standards can also be used to verify the accuracy of other temperature-sensitive instruments.
4. How should these standards be stored to maintain their purity?
Store the standards in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture, to preserve their purity and effectiveness.
5. What alternatives are available if one of the components is unavailable?
Alternatives such as naphthalene or urea can be considered, though they may have different melting points and should be verified for compatibility.
