Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 203.77 g/mol gives Lanthanum hexaboride distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies Lanthanum hexaboride (CAS 12008-21-8), a certified reference material (molecular formula LaB6, MW 203.77 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of Lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6) is characterized by an inorganic composition. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development.
This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
The assigned purity is verified by mass-balance and quantitative NMR (qNMR) approaches, with the expanded uncertainty reported at a 95% confidence level (k=2). Batch homogeneity and stability are independently assessed for every lot.
