General description

Mettler-Toledo calibration substance ME 18870, benzophenone (47-51 °C) is an analytical standard, ideal for the routine calibration of Mettler-Toledo melting point instrument. The melting point valueequals a mean of 6 to 12 measurements with aMettler-Toledo MP90 Excellence instrument that is calibrated withprimary standards.

Application

This Mettler-Toledo melting point standard is used to calibrate the melting point instrument Mettler FP900 thermosystem.

Features and Benefits

  • Melting point calibration standard traceable to a primary standard from LGC, London
  • Melting point evaluation performed in both thermodynamic and pharmacopeia modes for physically correct and heating rate dependent melting point determinations, respectively
  • Available with certificates of analysis and safety data sheet
  • A product of analytical standard grade to help meet the QC/QA requirements of melting point determination
