  2. Acid value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_value

    V eq is the volume of titrant (ml) consumed by the crude oil sample and 1 ml of spiking solution at the equivalent point, b eq is the volume of titrant (ml) consumed by 1 ml of spiking solution at the equivalent point, 56.1 g/mol is the molecular weight of KOH, W oil is the mass of the sample in grams. The normality (N) of titrant is calculated as:

  3. Moisture analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_analysis

    In this technique, a sample of material is weighed, heated in an oven for an appropriate period, cooled in the dry atmosphere of a desiccator, and then reweighed. If the volatile content of the solid is primarily water, the loss on drying technique gives a good measure of moisture content. [5]

    Serving sizes on nutrition labelling on food packages in Canada employ the metric cup of 250 mL, with nutrition labelling in the US using a cup of 240 mL, based on the US customary cup. [ 4 ] * In the UK, teaspoons and tablespoons are formally ⁠ 1 / 160 ⁠ and ⁠ 1 / 40 ⁠ of an imperial pint (3·55 mL and 14·21 mL), respectively.

  5. Cutting fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_fluid

    Synthetic coolants originated in the late 1950s and are usually water-based. The official technique to measure oil concentration in cutting fluid samples is manual titration: [4] 100ml of the fluid under test is titrated with a 0.5M HCl solution to an endpoint of pH 4 and the volume of titrant used to reach the endpoint is used to calculate the ...

    ASTM method D4007 [2] or API Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards chapter 10.4 [3] are commonly used to measure BS&W. These methods both consist of mixing equal volumes of solvent and crude oil then centrifuging in order to separate any solids, free water, or suspended particles.

  7. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    For example, in the brewing industry, the Plato table lists sucrose concentration by weight against true SG, and was originally (20 °C/4 °C) [7] i.e. based on measurements of the density of sucrose solutions made at laboratory temperature (20 °C) but referenced to the density of water at 4 °C which is very close to the temperature at which ...

  8. Wet chemistry - Wikipedia

    The reagents cause a unique reaction to occur based on the chemical it reacts with, allowing one to know what chemical is in the solution. An example is Heller's test where a test tube containing proteins has strong acids added to it. A cloudy ring forms where the substances meet, indicating the acids are denaturing the proteins. The cloud is a ...

  9. Iodine value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine_value

    12.69 is the conversion factor from mEq sodium thiosulfate to grams of iodine (the molecular weight of iodine is 126.9 g/mol); W is the weight of the sample in grams. The determination of IV according to Wijs is the official method currently accepted by international standards such as DIN 53241-1:1995-05, AOCS Method Cd 1-25, EN 14111 and ISO ...
