Product Description
Nitric Acid, 70% ACS/High Purity/Trace, 2.5L Polybottle
Trace metal work doesn't forgive a dirty reagent. This Trace Metal grade nitric acid is built specifically to keep your blanks clean and your detection limits where they should be, with sodium under 200 ppb, lead under 0.5 ppb, and heavy metals (as Pb) under 100 ppb. If you've ever chased a contamination spike back to your acid instead of your sample, this is the fix.
And yes, we ship it to your door with NO hidden fees. No hazmat surcharges, no handling fees, no "why does this cost $40 more than the website said" moments. Just the product, free ground shipping, and a clean invoice!

Which Grade Do You Need?
Trace Metal grade is built for routine trace elemental work where ppb-level cleanliness is the goal, not the obsession. If your method runs at ultratrace levels and a single contaminated reagent can blow your detection limit, step up to our ChemTrace grade nitric acid (SKU: JS-CP-M1780P-EA) instead. It's the same acid taken further, with sub-ppb specs across the board.
