General description

The certified potassium hydrogen phthalate buffer solution is gravimetrically prepared using high-quality reagents at a registered calibration laboratory. It has a pH value of 4.01 at 25°C, measured using a combined glass electrode following a 5-point calibration method. The measurement is made in accordance with DIN 19268 using reference buffer solutions compliant to DIN 19266, NIST, IUPAC, Ph. Eur, and USP. The pH value of the buffer solution heavily depends on the temperature and therefore a constant temperature must be maintained during its use.

Please visit ISO certificates and Site Quality Self-Assessments to access the current certificates of accreditation.

Download your certificate at http://www.sigma-aldrich.com to view certified values, including uncertainty and expiry date.

Application

The buffer solution is used as a standard in analytical procedures for the calibration of pH measuring instruments or pH electrodes and as a control for the measurement of pH of other solutions.
