Obtaining pure, neat compounds for these stan-
dards can be very difficult. Some of these commer-
cial-grade materials contain desensitizing agents
such as beeswax, water, or other manufacturing by-
products. Many are shipped wet and must be care-
fully dried before preparation. To ensure the high-
est quality standards, Restek chemists carefully
purify or synthesize each compound to 98% pure
or higher.
