Description
Platinum wire in glass rod is a qualitative detection reagent with platinum wire melted down into a glass holder for cation detection and related analytical chemistry. The glass rod measures 100 x 3 mm and holds a platinum wire of 50 x 0,2 mm, forming a ready-to-use assembly for flame tests and classic identification procedures. Platinum carries CAS number 7440-06-4 and EG number 231-116-1, empirical formula Pt, molar mass 195,08 g/mol, density 21,45 g/cm³ and boiling point 3827 °C. Supplied as one unit in cardboard packaging from manufacturer Carl ROTH, the article is listed among analytical chemicals used as qualitative detection reagents for cation detection. Laboratories apply platinum wire tools when introducing samples to a flame or observing characteristic responses of metal ions under heating. The melted-down joint keeps the wire fixed in the glass rod so the metal tip stays accessible while the glass acts as a heat-resistant handle. Unit weight is 0,054 kg. High density and thermal stability of platinum support repeated use in teaching and routine qualitative inorganic analysis.
This article is part of Reference substances & reagents (other), in Analytical standards & reference materials.

Questions about Platinum wire in glass rod, melted down, 1 unit(s), cardboard
What is this article?
Platinum wire in glass rod, melted down, 1 unit(s), cardboard 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?
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.
