Product Overview
This 1000 ppm Molybdenum single-element standard is formulated in a 2% nitric acid matrix to ensure long-term stability and compatibility with ICP-MS/OES instrumentation. The solution undergoes rigorous multi-stage purification to eliminate interfering contaminants, delivering <0.05% relative standard deviation in repeated measurements. Each batch is independently verified against NIST SRM 3134 reference material for concentration accuracy, with certification provided for ±1% tolerance. The low-particulate formulation prevents nebulizer clogging in high-throughput labs, while the amber glass packaging with PTFE-lined cap minimizes photodegradation and leaching. Designed for seamless integration into existing calibration protocols, this standard maintains linearity across 5 orders of magnitude when diluted with 1% HNO₃. The extended 24-month shelf life at 15-25°C reduces replacement frequency without compromising data integrity.
FAQs
1. What matrix acid is used in this Molybdenum standard?
This standard uses 2% high-purity nitric acid as the matrix, which is optimized for ICP-MS/OES compatibility and minimizes polyatomic interferences.
2. Can this standard be used for AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy)?
While primarily designed for ICP applications, the 1000 ppm concentration allows for AAS use after appropriate dilution to match your instrument’s linear range.
3. What documentation comes with each bottle?
Every unit includes a certificate of analysis with concentration value, uncertainty statement, batch number, and NIST traceability documentation.
4. How should I store this standard after opening?
After opening, store tightly sealed at 15-25°C away from direct light. The PTFE-lined cap prevents contamination during repeated access.
5. What’s the typical detection limit when using this standard?
With proper dilution, this standard enables detection limits as low as 0.1 ppb for Molybdenum on most modern ICP-MS systems.
