Accelerated determination of stability at elevated temperature through use of conductivity measurement to detect volatile reaction products
Metrohm stability measuring instruments are the ideal equipment for the following applications: Oxidative stability of edible fats and oils.
Development of antioxidants for food industry. Oxidative stability fat containing products: cereals, biscuits, cookies, hazelnuts.
Oxidative stability of Fame (fatty acid methyl ester, biodiesel).
Determination thermal stability of PVC and PVC related polymers.
Examination of PVC additives auch as stabilisers or plastilisers.
Metrohm's stability measuring instruments are now available in the third generation and are well approved in food industry and polymer industry.
They are now completely PC controlled and offer extensive features for data archiving and data reprocessing.
With Metrohm stability measuring instruments, different types of samples are exposed to air or inert gas at elevated temperatures.
Due to oxidative or thermal decomposition, volatile reaction products are formed during this reaction process and are trapped in an absorption vessel with distilled water and are detected using conductivity measurement.
