Methods and Special Samples
The Halogen Moisture Analyzer is a user-friendly measuring device which allows the moisture content of samples to be quickly and easily determined.
| There are often statutory requirements, standards customarily used
in the trade or internal corporate instructions for substances which define the method of moisture content determination. The oven method or Karl Fischer titration is usually used as the reference procedure. In such cases, the aim is to obtain the same results with the Halogen Moisture Analyzer as with the reference procedure (or for the deviation from the reference value to be known and reproducible). In order to achieve this, adjustments must be made to the setting parameters such as drying temperature, drying program (see Measuring Principle) and sample weight as well as the handling of the sample. This is known as method development where the aforementioned parameters describe a method. The same method may be used for different substances. The following chapter describes the basics of how development of a method can be carried out. After this you will find information about how you can work with special samples to achieve accurate measurement results. It may however be the case that you are not using a reference procedure and therefore have no reference value. The objective of method development in this case is to find parameters with which you gain repeatable (precise) measurement results which you can use to assess the quality of your samples. You can optimize your measurements in three respects: correctness, precision (repeatability) and speed. The diagram here explains the terms correctness, accuracy and precision.  |
