Description

Barium Ionophore I CAS NO 96476-01-6 is a highly selective neutral carrier used in the fabrication of ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) and optical sensors. Its primary value lies in its exceptional specificity for barium ions (Ba²⁺), enabling accurate and reliable detection in complex matrices. This compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers in analytical chemistry, environmental monitoring, and industrial process control who require precise barium quantification.

Application

• Key component in barium ion-selective electrode (ISE) membranes for potentiometric analysis.
• Used in the development of optical chemical sensors (optodes) for barium ion detection.
• Critical for environmental water testing to monitor barium levels in groundwater and industrial effluents.
• Applied in geochemical research and analysis of geological samples.
• Utilized in quality control laboratories for the pharmaceutical and ceramic industries.
• Enables fundamental academic research in supramolecular chemistry and ion recognition.

Quality Control

Our Barium Ionophore I is produced and tested to meet the stringent requirements for sensor-grade materials. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical characterization, including HPLC for purity verification and spectroscopic methods for structural confirmation. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and performance in sensor applications is provided with every shipment to ensure traceability and reliability for your research and production needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at 15-25°C. This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
