Course Details
Premier
In 1935 Karl Fischer demonstrated that the reaction between iodine and sulfur dioxide could be used for water determination using methanol as a solvent. This module will detail the use of Karl Fischer titration apparatus for moisture determination.
Topics include:
- Water determination - Karl Fischer titration
- Karl Fischer titration, side reactions, and rate control
- Bivoltametric indication
- End point polarization
- Drift
- Calibration, maintenance, and troubleshooting of Karl Fischer autotitrators
- Errors with Karl Fischer titratrions
