Chemworld reagent water specifications include.
Types of reagent grade water.
International organization for standardization iso the iso based its specification on iso 3696 1987 and specifies three grades of water.
Type i reagent grade.
Norms define different laboratory water grades for both technical and economical reasons.
The clsi has also briefly outlined other grades in less detail such special reagent water srw and instrument feed water.
The purpose of these norms is to ensure that the right water quality is used for a specific application while limiting laboratory operating costs type 1 water is more expensive to produce than type 2 or type 3 water.
Chemworld stocks this product in 1 to 275 gallon containers.
Grade 1 grade 2 and grade 3 where grade 1 is the most pure see below.
Distillation ion exchange reverse osmosis and uv oxidation are used to prepare reagent grade water.
In most modern labs type ii water is only used for rinsing glassware and as feed water to a type i di polishing system.
Reagent grade water may be ordered as deionized type i deionized type ii and distilled water.
