Stray Light Standards
GFS Chemicals Inc. offers several different stray light standards at various cut-off wavelengths. These standards are used to verify that no stray light from an outside source is impact the readings. Stray light is of particular importance as you get further into the UV range. Testing for stray light is still important even if you aren’t testing in the UV range as it is also a good indicator of the overall health of the spectrophotometer’s optics, grating, and deuterium lamp. The five standards that are offered are Potassium Iodide, Sodium Iodide, Lithium Carbonate, Sodium Chloride, and Potassium Chloride. These are available sealed in a 10mm quartz cuvette or 60mL bottle.
