Description

General description

Potassium hydrogen phthalate, also known as KHP, is a volumetric standard produced under stringent conditions and measured with the highest possible precision. The content of the standard is measured using volumetric acid-base titrations. Its certified value and uncertainty measurement are in accordance with ISO Guide 35.

Application

It finds its use as a reference material for the standardization of volumetric solutions in alkalimetric titrations.

Features and Benefits

• Available as a solid in a secure glass bottle to ensure its stability for the entire shelf life until opened.
• High-purity material traceable to NIST SRM
• High-quality offering accurate titer determinations
• Accompanied by a certificate of analysis (CoA)

Analysis Note
