Chemical Structure
Description
The occurrence of α-Cellulose (powdered) is closely related to a carbohydrate-derived structure in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
α-Cellulose (powdered) (CAS 9004-34-6), molecular formula (C6H10O5)n and molecular weight 162.14 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to a carbohydrate-derived structure, α-Cellulose (powdered) is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 162.14 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
CATO manufactures α-Cellulose (powdered) under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
