Collection contains the titration methods most used in surfactant analysis in an attractive and practical form, and taking into account the latest standards
Surf Pac from Metrohm stands for Surfactant Potentiometric Analysis Collection and contains the titration methods most used in surfactant analysis in an attractive and practical form.
The methods are up to date, says the company, as they take into account the latest standards.
Using these methods directly as SOPs (standard operating procedures) in a laboratory may save both time and money.
The Surf Pac know-how package consists of an application binder with the 21 titration methods most often used in surfactant analysis.
Each method is extensively described and includes instrument parameters, calculation formulae, and curve examples as well as result reports.
A method memory card containing the complete parameter sets of all 21 methods.
The Metrodoc CD-Rom contains the electronic version of the Surf Pac ring binder (PDF format), The relevant Metrohm Application Bulletins and Application Notes (PDF format), instructions for use of the Metrodata Vesuv 3 software (PDF format), Vesuv file with the Surf Pac methods as well as Adobe Acrobat Reader 5 for reading and printing the PDF files.
The Metrodata CD-Rom has demo versions of the Metrodata programs Vesuv 3, TiNet 2, and the practice-oriented Metrohm surfactant monograph 'Titrimetric determination of surfactants and pharmaceuticals'.
The following 21 titration methods, arranged into groups A to E, can be found on the memory card:.
A - anionic surfactants.
Titer determination of cationic titrants for the potentiometric two-phase titration of anionic surfactants and soaps.
Titer determination of the cationic titrant for the potentiometric aqueous titration of anionic surfactants.
