As a certified reference material (CRM), 1,2:3,4-Tetrahydrofluoranthene 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.
CATO supplies 1,2:3,4-Tetrahydrofluoranthene (CAS 20279-21-4), a certified reference material (molecular formula C16H14, MW 206.28 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of 1,2:3,4-Tetrahydrofluoranthene (C16H14) is characterized by a polycyclic aromatic system. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by its high hydrophobicity (logP), which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
