Metrohm is offering free monographs that introduce the techniques of titration, ion chromatography, thermometric titrimetry, voltammetry, air and water monitoring and moisture analysis.
The company regularly makes its knowledge of chemical processes available to the public in short monographs.
A group of the latest booklets present the fundamentals of the various ion analytical methods.
A second group covers important fields of application.
Finally, a third group puts a focus on practical training in analytical methods for university students.
The most recent publications and their Metrohm order numbers (in brackets) are covered below.
The Practical Titration (8.029.5003) tutorial is primarily intended for training purposes but can also be used to advantage in any laboratory.
It is intended to explain the theory in a simple manner and, by using practical examples, demonstrate just how versatile and accurate titrimetric analysis is.
The Practical Aspects of Modern Titration (8.015.5003) monograph covers the practical dimensions of sample preparation, presents the basic principles of titrimetric analysis and advice on how to perform titrations.
The Practical Ion Chromatography (8.792.5013) monograph demonstrates that IC is not just an analytical exaltation, but that it can provide fast answers to basic questions.
A separate theoretical part provides the theoretical background to understand the practical aspects.
The 13 experiments described in the Practical Voltammetry (8.757.5003) monograph are intended to introduce the reader to the basic principles of polarography and voltammetry using a mercury electrode, as well as provide examples showing the use of these methods in analytical chemistry.
The Practical Thermometric Titrimetry (8.036.5003) monograph is intended primarily for practicing industrial analytical chemists as an introduction to the technique of thermometric titrimetry.
The main purpose is to describe the basics of the technique as well as a range of applications that are suitable for use with the 859 Titrotherm thermometric titration system.
Voltammetric Analysis Methods in Electroplating (8.108.5002) presents 77 methods for determining a broad range of components of galvanic baths and sewages.
This Analysis of Water Samples and Water Constituents with Metrohm Instruments (8.038.5001) monograph explains which parameters and water constituents can be analysed with Metrohm instruments.
Air Monitoring by Ion Chromatography (8.035.5003) is a literature reference book for different types of air analysis.
Water Determination by Karl Fischer Titration (8.026.5003) describes the basics of Karl Fischer titration.
It covers the KF reagents, chemical reactions, volumetric and coulometric titration and the various detection methods, as well as dealing with aspects such as interfering side reactions and sample preparation techniques.
The second part of the monograph contains detailed procedures for the determination of water in different samples and covers more than 900 substances.
Copies of all free monographs can be ordered direct from Metrohm by phone or email.
