1.2 Grades of purity of chemicals Flashcards
Grades of purity of chemicals can be seen in what sheet?
SDS (Safety data sheet) / Material Safety Data sheet
Labels on these reagents either state the actual impurities for each chemical lot or the list maximum allowable impurities label should reveal the percentage of impurities present
a. Analytic reagent grades
b. Ultrapure
c. USP (US Pharmacopeia) or NF (National formulary
d. Chemically pure
e. Technical or Commercial grade
Analytic reagent grade
WITH known impurity
a. Analytic reagent grades
b. Ultrapure
c. USP (US Pharmacopeia) or NF (National formulary
d. Chemically pure
e. Technical or Commercial grade

e
Amount of impurity is not KNOWN
a. Analytic reagent grades
b. Ultrapure
c. USP (US Pharmacopeia) or NF (National formulary
d. Chemically pure
e. Technical or Commercial grade
e
Grading of these reagents should actually state its actual impurities
