In the field of catalysis, SRMs are crucial for several reasons:
Calibration: SRMs are used to calibrate analytical instruments, ensuring that experimental data are accurate. This is particularly important for techniques such as gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Method Validation: They help in validating new analytical methods, ensuring that they produce reliable and consistent results. Quality Control: SRMs are used in quality control processes to monitor the performance of catalysts and ensure that manufacturing processes remain within specified limits. Inter-laboratory Comparisons: They enable different laboratories to compare results, ensuring consistency and comparability of data across different research groups.
