Custom Inorganic Standards 5 years Shelf Life
Custom Multi Element inorganic standards now have a certified shelf life of up to 5 years through Transpiration Control Technology (TCT) from Inorganic Ventures. With TCT, concerns about storage and transport conditions of standards are eliminated. This saves the lab money and simplifies research by eliminating the need to constantly monitor stock levels and reorder CRMs.
Last year Inorganic Ventures already introduced the TCT technology for inorganic Stock standards. So now this technology is also available for inorganic Custom standards.
Thanks to TCT, your custom standard can always be in stock.
Background
Last year Inorganic Ventures already introduced the TCT technology for inorganic Stock standards. So now this technology is also available for inorganic Custom standards.
Transpiration refers to the wall of bottle allowing water vapor to pass through and/or through evaporation from the closed bottle opening. It leads to increase in the concentration of the CRM/RM.
Transpiration Control Technology extends the shelf life of the product. Inorganic Ventures uses a specially aluminized bag that prevents an increase in concentration until the bag is opened. The sealed TCT bag stops the loss of water vapor from the bottle when equilibrium is reached in the bag. So it is the same high quality product as you have come to expect from them, but even more improved.
To explain the problem and the technology of the solution, Inorganic Ventures has developed a series of animations explaining the frustrations surrounding perspiration. This series is by chemists for chemists.
The latest animation is called “I’m just a Custom Standard“:
