i need 1 liter of de ionised water for cleaning my contamined presion probe.
any one know wher can i buy it?

is de ionised water = battery water?
any bio guy can help?
 
No, battery water is (usually) aqueous sulfuric(VI) acid, H2SO4(aq).

All batteries are Galvanic/Voltaic cells which require a conducting solution (ie. electrolyte) to generate electricity. Cars use the lead-acid battery. At the anode, Pb(s) is oxidized to PbSO4(s). At the cathode, PbO2(s) is reduced to PbSO4(s). The lead-acid battery is rechargeable (ie. called a secondary cell) because the PbSO4(s) generated remains in contact with both electrodes. Finally, a battery is actually a series of Galvanic/Voltaic cells.

--------------------------

Deionized water is water with (almost) all ions removed, with the use of various deionizing technologies.

Theoretically and ideally, both deionized water and distilled water = pure water.

But in practice, because the deionization process and the distillation process are different, there will inevitably be some impurities in both, hence neither deionized water not distilled water, is truly 100% pure water.

Having said all that, sorry I do not know where/who/which company in Singapore is a reliable source of either deionized water or distilled water.

Anyone know where TS can buy deionized / distilled water for cleaning his "presion probe"?

I think TS meant battery water as distilled water.
Deionised and distilled should be the same thing.
 
If you look for drinking distilled water look up supermarket shelf among rows of mineral water
 
hey, so you are chemical trained and i am electronic and IT trained, i think we can start a science club like what we have in the old school days...:cool::D

no.the manual put WARNING!

only soak sensor in de ionised water in NO more than a minute

i understand that distill water is near to pure..with minerals remove?
