General description

Mettler-Toledo calibration standard ME 18555, benzoic acid (121-125 °C) is suitable for the regular calibration of Mettler-Toledo melting point instrument. Its melting point value is an average of 6 to 12 measurements with a Mettler-Toledo MP90 excellence melting point instrument that is calibrated against primary standards.

Application

This Mettler-Toledo melting point standard is used for the calibration of 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
  • 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 analysis
