Immersion Oils, Calibration Liquids, and Refractive Index Liquids

Our selection includes:

• Immersion Oils: Immersion oils are used to increase resolving power resulting in a crisp, detail-rich image. Learn more about immersion oil.
• Refractive Index Liquids: These specially formulated liquids are used to identify particles such as minerals, chemicals, gems, plastics, and more. Learn more about refractive index liquids here. Refractive index liquids include certified water, asbestos refractive index liquids, high dispersion series E, B, and M refractive index liquid sets, Series E refractive index liquids, series M refractive index liquids, series A refractive index liquids, series AA refractive index liquids, series AAA refractive index liquids, gem refractometer liquids, series E refractive index liquids, series B refractive index liquids.
• Calibration Liquids: Calibration liquids include ASC reagent grade water, multi-temperature calibration liquids, and master calibration liquids. These non-toxic, very stable liquids are excellent for calibrating and verifying temperature controlled refractometers and glass refractive index measuring systems.
• Matching Liquids: Matching liquids are specialized optical coupling liquids with closely matched refractive indices of common materials such as Acrylic, BK 7 glass, Fused Silica, and water.
• Mounting Media: These mounting media are designed for optical coupling applications as well as microscope slide mounting.
• BRIX Liquids: Brix liquids are extremely stable liquids that cover the entire Brix range from 0 - 85% sucrose solution @ 20ºC. These liquids are ideal for calibrating Brix refractometers as their extreme stability means they can be used as a calibration liquid for years.
• Optical Gels: Optical gels and Sub-Lux gels are optical coupling gels primarily used to match the refractive index of BK-7 glass and fused Silica. Another use for the optical gels is as a mode stripping gel useful when evaluating fiber systems. Learn more about optical gels here.
• Preservative Tablets: Preservative tablets include mercury free Cult-Ur tablets, Stabilur Tablets, Sulfosalicyclic Acid, and Boric Acid tablets all used to stabilize and preserve urine samples for urinalysis and laboratory examination. Learn more about preservative tablets here.
• Density Standards: Density standards are used for monitoring and measuring the density of various liquids and non porous solids. These density standards include Sink-Floats, Aqueous and Organic series of heavy liquids, precision calibrated heavy liquids, and uncalibrated heavy liquids for adjusting heavy liquids in the organic series.
