The seven principles of ISO 9001 are the foundation of establishing a quality management system (QMS) for your organisation. Created by ISO’s committee of experts, the key principles are:People engagement Customer focus Leadership Process approach Improvement Evidence-based decision making Relationship managementThese seven principles are designed to help you manage your organisation to a consistently high standard in line...
An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond that’s formed when electrons are transferred from one atom to another. This means one atom becomes positively charged while the other is negatively charged, creating an electrostatic attraction between the anions and cations.Continue reading to learn more about how ionic bonds form, their characteristics, and some common examples. We’ll also...
Ketones are a class of organic compounds identifiable by their carbonyl group, i.e. the group that has a carbon-oxygen double bond. A by-product of metabolism, ketones are naturally present in humans, plants and animals. They’re also used as solvents in a wide range of industries. Continue reading to learn more about ketones, the different types, and some common applications. What are ketones? Ketones...
Various scientists, engineers, and inventors can be credited with the discovery of natural polymers and the invention of synthetic polymers. However, Hermann Staudinger was the first person to suggest polymers are composed of long chain molecules with repeating subunits held together by covalent bonds.Polymers are chains of molecules that have repeating subunits known as monomers. Naturally occurring polymers serve as...
Salts are ionic compounds resulting from a neutralisation reaction between an acid and a base. Depending on the respective strengths of the reactants, the types of salts in chemistry can be classified as acidic, basic, normal (neutral), or double.A basic salt is formed by the reaction between a strong base and a weak acid. Conversely, acidic salts are produced...
Several scientists can be credited with the discovery and development of stereochemistry. They include Louis Pasteur, Jacobus H. van 't Hoff, and Joseph Le Bel. Stereochemistry is a branch of chemistry that focuses on the relative spatial arrangement of atoms in molecules and their manipulation. Continue reading to learn more about the origins of stereochemistry and its impact on modern chemistry. The...
Qualitative analysis in chemistry primarily focuses on the visual characteristics of a chemical reaction, for example, a change in colour or the production of bubbles. Unlike quantitative analysis, qualitative analysis does not involve measurements or numerical values and calculations. Qualitative analysis is relatively easy to perform because it generally doesn’t require expensive, high-tech equipment or precise measurements. What is qualitative analysis? Qualitative...
Danish chemist Søren Peter Lauritz Sørensen invented the pH scale in 1909. He developed the concept as a way of measuring acidity while working at the Carlsberg research lab in Copenhagen. Even today, the pH scale is an essential diagnostic tool that’s used to determine the degrees of acidity and alkalinity of a wide range of substances.Continue reading to...

Always have excellent service from yourselves from ordering product to delivery.
Kevin Wallcroft
A particularly easy to deal with chemical company. I telephoned, got all the advice needed with excellent friendly service. My chemicals arrived the very next day. Very happy!
Joanne King
Fast efficient service, was kept updated on order throughout. Can not fault ReAgent sales and delivery processes.
