Description
Standard mixture of mineral oils is a ready-to-use calibration standard containing 500 mg/l mineral oil and 500 mg/l diesel, offered in a convenient 5 ml pack. Characterised by a density of 0,79 g/cm³, a flash point of −17 °C and a boiling point of 56,05 °C, this preparation supports precise analytical work in environmental laboratories. It is particularly suited to water and wastewater analysis for determination of the hydrocarbon index according to ISO 9377-2:2000 (H53 method). The mixture from manufacturer Carl ROTH provides a defined mineral oil and diesel content that helps laboratories establish reliable reference points when quantifying hydrocarbons in aqueous samples. Its documented physical properties facilitate controlled handling in routine laboratory practice, while the compact 5 ml volume suits calibration, method verification and quality-control workflows. Environmental analysts can integrate this standard into existing ISO 9377-2 protocols to obtain consistent hydrocarbon index measurements across diverse water matrices and support regulatory monitoring programmes.

Questions about Standard mixture of mineral oils, 500 mg/l mineral oil, 500 mg/l diesel, 5 ml
What is this article?
Standard mixture of mineral oils, 500 mg/l mineral oil, 500 mg/l diesel, 5 ml is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Chromatography standards (GC, HPLC, pesticides), inside Analytical standards & reference materials, in Lab chemicals.
A chromatography standard is the substance, or the mix, injected so a peak can be named and quantified. Pesticide mixes, residual-solvent mixes and single-compound standards are different articles. The concentration and the solvent are the specification. The solvent has to be one the method may contain.
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.

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.
