　　Premium purity (GR, green label) (first-grade product): high content of main components, high purity, suitable for accurate analysis and research work, and some can be used as reference materials.

　　Analytical purity (AR, red label) (secondary product): high content of main components, high purity, low interference impurities, suitable for industrial analysis and chemical experiments.

　　Chemical purity (CP, blue label) (grade 3): high content of main components, high purity, and interference impurities, suitable for chemical experiments and synthetic preparations.

　　Experimental purity (LR, yellow label): high content of main components, poor purity, impurity content is not selected, only suitable for general chemical experiments and synthetic preparations.

　　Teaching reagent (): a class of reagents that can meet students' teaching purposes and will not cause deviations in chemical reaction phenomena.

　　Designated grade (ZD), this type of reagent is a chemical reagent customized for a specific user according to the quality control index required by the user.

　　High-purity reagents (EP): including ultra-pure, extra-pure, high-purity, spectral purity, and prepare standard solutions. The quality of such reagents focuses on: the impurity content that may cause deviation in the analysis process of a specific method and interfere with the composition analysis or content analysis, but does not have high requirements for the main content.

　　Chromatographic purity (GC): dedicated for gas chromatographic analysis. Quality indicators focus on impurities that interfere with gas chromatographic peaks. High content of principal components.

　　Chromatographic purity (LC): Reference material for liquid chromatographic analysis. Quality indicators focus on impurities that interfere with the peaks of liquid chromatography. High content of principal components

　　Indicator (ID): used to prepare indicator solution. The quality index is the color change range and color change sensitivity. It can replace CP and is also suitable for organic synthesis.

　　Biochemical reagent (BR): preparation of biochemical test solution, and biochemical synthesis. Quality indicators focus on biologically active impurities. Can replace indicators and can be used in organic synthesis

　　Biological staining agent (BS): Preparation of microbial specimen staining solution. Quality indicators focus on biologically active impurities. Can replace indicators and can be used in organic synthesis

　　Spectroscopic pure (SP): used for spectral analysis. Applicable to spectrophotometer standards, atomic absorption spectroscopy standards, atomic emission spectroscopy standards

　　Electronically pure (MOS): suitable for the production of electronic products, with extremely low levels of electrical impurities.

　　Equivalent reagents (3N, 4N, 5N): The main component content is 99.9%, 99.99%, and 99.999%, respectively.

　　Electrophoresis reagents: Quality indicators focus on the control of electrical impurity content.

　　In addition, there are also special reagents, which are produced in very small quantities and are almost on demand. The quantity and quality of such reagents are generally specified by the user. The following is the table organized by the National Standard Products Network, I hope it will be more convenient for you:
