About Laboratory Grade and Technical Grade chemicals

Laboratory Grade (Lab Grade) and Technical Grade (Tech Grade) reagents are suitable for educational and industrial or other applications that do not require high purity. They are not subject to the stringent purity requirements of USP grade, ACS grade, or LCMS grade standards.

Laboratory Grade chemicals are high quality, although exact purities are unknown. This grade is ideal for lab and classroom settings. Technical Grade chemicals are similar in purity level, and are appropriate in commercial and industrial settings. These grades are not suitable for analytical, pharmaceutical, or food applications.
