Chemical Structure

Hematite CAS 1317-60-8 chemical structure

Description

Hematite (CAS 1317-60-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula Fe2O3 and a molecular weight of 159.69 g/mol.

Based on its molecular formula Fe2O3, Hematite contains an inorganic composition; these features give the compound characteristic functional-group stretching vibrations in infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 159.69 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry.

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.

As a certified reference material (CRM), Hematite meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
