Sulfate water analysis test kits
16 January, 2003 | Edwards Group Pty LtdThe CHEMetrics Sulfate Vacu-vials Test Kit (K-9203) for water analysis features self-filling Vacu-vial ampoules, which the user simply snaps in the sample. The Sulfate Vacu-vials test method employs the barium sulfate method. Sulfate ion reacts with barium chloride in an acidic solution to form a suspension of barium sulfate crystals of uniform size. The resulting turbidity is proportional to the sulfate concentration of the sample and can be read on any spectrophotometer that accepts a 13 mm cell.
