Composition & Formulation
- Lactic acid, 85 % or better, 10.0 g/L weighed as supplied
- Sodium chloride 5.850 g/L
- Grade 2 water
- No pH adjuster: the standard prescribes none
- pH 2.3, a conformity check rather than a target
Available Formats & Packaging
- 200 mL
- 500 mL
- 1 L
- kit 2×500 mL · matched pH
- made to order, prepared close to despatch
Main Function & Applications
Immerse the alloy or device and measure what it releases. This is the static immersion medium the standard specifies, made from the clause itself: 10.0 g of lactic acid at 85 % or better, weighed as supplied, and 5.850 g of sodium chloride.
User Sectors & Laboratories
- Dental alloy & prosthesis makers
- Orthodontics (wires, brackets)
- Implantology
- Dental faculties & biomaterials CROs
Good to know
The standard asks for this solution to be prepared within a few hours of use, so it is made to order and dated on despatch. If the pH falls outside 2.2 to 2.4 we discard the batch and check the reagents, because clause 4.1.5 provides no adjuster.
Certificate of Analysis (CoA) & Traceability
- pH measured at 20 °C
- Titratable acidity
- Chloride
- Water grade
- Manufacturing date
