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 ...

Most often, the presence of water in pharmaceutical substances, petroleum products, or foodstuffs is unwanted. For example, if water content is too high, it can reduce the shelf life of grains like ...

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 ...
