Elements in Oil/Spectroscopy Products
Conostan® Division is the world's leading manufacturer and marketer of Elements in Oil standards and related spectroscopy products. Conostan's industry leading position is derived from superior product chemistry, manufacturing technology, and blending techniques. Conostan products are used extensively in the calibration and operation of analytical instruments for the analysis of elements in oil and other organic fluids. Conostan® is the only source of metallo-organic standards in the history of the National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST).

Conostan products are optimized for:
- Compatability- 32 elements can be combined over an extensive concentration range
- Solubility- Conostan element standards are soluble in Conostan PremiSolv™ ICP solvent, Conostan base oils, Ketones, such as 4-methyl-2-pentanone (MIBK), as well as in paraffinic and aromatic hydrocarbons, such as mineral oil, xylene, and Kerosene.
- Volatility- Conostan element standards are made in ultra-pure, highly processed hydrocarbon oil only; no solubilizers are used. Volatile loss depends on the volatility of the hydrocarbon oil and is typically 0.07% in one hour at 120°C and 75mm Hg pressure.
- Viscosity- Viscosity range at room temperature is ideal for instrumental applications.
- Instrumental Response- Excellent analytical response over a wide range of analytical applications.
- Shelf Life- All Conostan Element standards and spectroscopy products have a one year minimum shelf life (D-Series® D-12 and D-3 blended standards have a 30 month shelf life) from the date of shipment.
