Benzene Vapour reference Cells CRM enquiry
Product Description:
At spectral bandwidths less than 1 nm, the benzene vapour spectrum provides a useful reference that has characteristic features that may or may not be displayed “ dependent upon the current spectrophotometer SBW.
Benzene vapour will not work well with a photodiode array spectrophotometer as this instrument type does not measure a continuum and the peaks will not be resolved well enough to be useable.     (see MSDS)
Suggestions for Use:
Scan the 252-262 nm region, and observe the spectral changes with SBW.
The 253.49 nm and 259.56 nm peaks should be visible at a SBW of 0.2 nm or less.
Benzene Vapour
Description: 0.1 ml benzene in the vapour state.
Primary Usage: Determination of spectral bandwidth (SBW) in the UV region.
Usable range: 230 nm to 270 nm, instruments with a SBW of less than 1 nm.
Physical Configuration : Far UV quartz cells that have been permanently heat sealed.
