Background and Applications Information on How to Titrate Acid Mixtures

This guide covers selected applications and background information for the titration of acid mixtures.
This guide covers selected applications and background information for the titration of acid mixtures.

To prevent abrasion and corrosion, metals need to undergo electroplating baths. Therefore, coating plays an important role in the electroplating, electronics, and metal industries.

The baths consist of acid mixtures which determine the efficiency and efficacy of the process. To provide the best product quality, the acid content of each acid in the mixture needs to be monitored. A commonly used method for its determination is acid base titration. Since the bath consists of more than only one acid, it is impossible to determine their content with a single titration.

This guide walks you through relevant acid/base titration theory and provides information about its background and selected applications. It shows you how to overcome the issue of having several equivalence points during a titration using METTLER TOLEDO's Excellence Titrators T5, T7, and T9.

This guide covers:

  • Selected titration applications
  • Questions on acid/base titrations
  • Non-aqueous acid/base titration
