Viscosity Standard Fluid 1000 CP is a pharmacopeial-grade reference fluid designed for use in pharmaceutical quality control, laboratory calibration, and analytical testing for the calibration and performance verification of viscometers and rheometers that measure high-range viscosity in aqueous and non-aqueous systems.
🏭⚗️ Production
Prepared under strictly controlled GMP- and pharmacopeial-compliant conditions to ensure precise viscosity, chemical stability, and minimal contamination. The 1000 CP viscosity value is achieved using stabilized polymeric or oil-based formulations that provide uniform flow properties. The fluid is supplied in chemically resistant, sealed, and light-protected containers to prevent evaporation, contamination, or degradation. Each batch is validated according to USP <911>, EP 2.2.10, and relevant pharmaceutical testing standards to ensure accuracy, uniformity, and reproducibility.
🔬 Properties
A clear to slightly opalescent fluid with a defined viscosity of 1000 CP. Exhibits excellent stability under recommended storage conditions. Minor changes in viscosity may occur after prolonged storage or exposure to extreme temperatures or light; gentle mixing restores homogeneity without affecting the viscosity value.
🧪 Applications
Used in pharmaceutical, analytical, and educational laboratories for calibration, validation, and performance testing of viscometers and rheometers. Suitable for method validation, routine QC analysis, equipment qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ), and compliance with pharmacopeial standards requiring high-range viscosity references. Ideal for ensuring accurate measurements in formulation development, process control, and laboratory research.
⚠️ Safety
Considered low-hazard but should be handled according to standard laboratory safety practices. Avoid ingestion, inhalation of vapors, or direct contact with skin and eyes. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, goggles, and a lab coat. Store in tightly sealed, light-protected containers in a cool, dry environment. Dispose of according to pharmaceutical laboratory waste regulations and environmental safety guidelines.
