Here is a link to the make up of buffers from 1 to 13 . Scroll down for the pH 13 range, http://delloyd.50megs.com/moreinfo/buffers2.html ph 13 buffer needs to use Sodium Hydroxide. You can only get to pH 10 with Ammonia. Ammonia is only a 'weak' base to get to pH 13 you need a 'strong ' base ,strong bases are the Hydroxide's of Sodium, Potassium or other alkaline metals. Here is a link that explains the concept of weak and strong base's http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_(chemistry)

Why buffer ammonia is used in water total hardness test?
ph 10.0-10.4
Sodium acetate buffer?
can I make sodium acetate buffer 0.2M Ph=5 whit sodium acetate buffer 3m Ph=5 solution?
Why does the pH of an acetate buffer increases after dilution with water?
The pH of water is approximatly 7 (a neutral pH), and the acetate buffer has an acidic pH (less than 7) so when you add distilled water to the buffer the pH will increase.
How do you prepare phosphate buffer of pH 7.5?
See the Related Links for "Columbia.edu: Phosphate buffer automatic calculator" to the bottom for the answer.
What is the pH of aqueous ammonia in relation to pounds of ammonia per gallon of water?
the pH of ammonia is about 11.6 In a 1M ammonia solution (my guess is 17g/L), about 0.42% of the ammonia is converted to ammonium (my guess is 0.07 g/L), equivalent to a pH of 11.63.
Why buffer ammonia is used in water total hardness test?
ph 10.0-10.4
What prevents the pH of urine from becoming too acidic?
