With the majority of Quality Control labs using ICP-MS to perform trace metals analysis, the need for highest purity grade (10 ppt) acid to meet ICP-MS reagent quality requirements has increased substantially for the last couple of years. Apart from ICP-MS application, ultrapure acids are also widely used in AAS, ICP-OES, AFS and other spectroscopy analysis; however, buying high purity grade of acid can be expensive. Especially, post Covid-19 pandemic laboratory budgets are coming under stringent control and reducing the cost of laboratory chemicals, while maintaining quality, has become a major concern for many laboratories. As a result, more and more laboratories may consider opting for producing their own high purity grade acids by purifying lower cost trace metal grade acids, which in turn can significantly reduce the cost of buying expensive ultrapure acids.
