One standard that is generally cited for moisture determination in the specifications of various petroleum products is ASTM D6304: “Standard Test Method for Determination of Water in Petroleum ...

Pharmaceutical product quality, effectiveness and shelf life depends significantly on the water content in these products, which makes water determination in pharmaceutical analysis so important.

Volumetric Karl Fischer (KF) titration is a fast, accurate technique for determining water content in a diverse range of samples. This determination is based on a chemical reaction involving the ...

The KF reaction is based upon an early reaction called the Bunsen reaction, in which sulfur dioxide is oxidized by iodine with the consumption of water during this oxidation. The original reaction is ...
