Description
Platinum wire with a minimum purity of 99,95 % is a high-grade elemental metal reagent offered as a 0,5 mm diameter filament for laboratory use. With the empirical formula Pt, CAS number 7440-06-4 and EG number 231-116-1, the material has a molar mass of 195,08 g/mol and a density of 21,45 g/cm³. Its boiling point of 3827 °C reflects the thermal stability of platinum under demanding analytical conditions. Supplied as a 5 cm length in plastic packaging, the wire suits qualitative detection work and cation-related procedures in analytical chemistry. Laboratories employ platinum wire for flame tests, electrode setups and other detection routines where chemical inertness and conductivity are required. This product from manufacturer Carl ROTH supports consistent handling in research and routine analysis. The defined diameter and purity help maintain reproducible behaviour when preparing samples or performing spot tests. The compact pack size is practical for method development, teaching laboratories and workflows that need only small quantities of precious-metal wire.
This article belongs on Reference substances & reagents (other), in Analytical standards & reference materials.

Questions about Platinum wire, min. 99,95 %, diameter 0,5 mm, 2 m, plastic
What is this article?
Platinum wire, min. 99,95 %, diameter 0,5 mm, 2 m, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Reference substances & reagents (other), inside Analytical standards & reference materials, in Lab chemicals.
A reference substance has a stated identity and a stated content, used to check a method or to standardise a titration. It is a more tightly specified article than a reagent grade bottle of the same name. The lot's certificate is part of the product.
A reference material is the article against which another result is compared. Its value is stated, and the uncertainty of that value is part of the product. An ICP or ion standard is a solution of known concentration. A volumetric standard is for titration. A chromatography standard is the peak you match. The grade names, including pharmacopoeia and ASTM, say which impurities were limited. Identity is checked on PubChem. Names follow IUPAC. Medicinal grades follow the European Pharmacopoeia and USP.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Analytical standards & reference materials. The sub-category is Reference substances & reagents (other). The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are ICP, AAS & ion standards, Chromatography standards (GC, HPLC, pesticides), Volumetric standard solutions (titration), Reagents for analysis (Ph. Eur., ASTM, DIN), Spectroscopy & physical property standards and Indicators & indicator solutions.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
