Reliable titration results from manual to fully automatic: the free handbook for chemical analysis

From manual burette to fully automated Karl Fischer titration – titration is one of the most versatile and error-prone methods in chemical analysis. This free handbook brings together theory and practice: from the fundamentals through sensor selection and sample handling to result verification – practical and directly applicable for lab analysts working in chemical analysis and quality control

Titration is one of the oldest methods for content determination in chemistry – yet the same errors recur in daily lab practice: incorrect sensor selection, wrong titration parameters, poor sample handling. A solid understanding of the fundamentals leads to faster, more precise measurements and results that hold up to scrutiny.

The titration handbook covers the full scope of the method – from the basics to specialist applications:

  • General fundamentals of titration: The underlying chemical and physical principles explained with clarity

  • Volumetric equipment, manual and automatic titration: Which approach fits which analytical task?

  • Sample handling: Correct preparation as the foundation for reliable results

  • Sensors and reagents: Selection, application areas, and the most common sources of error

  • Titration parameters and calculations: Setting up correctly and evaluating results with confidence

  • Applications: Acid-base titrations and other standard methods in practice

  • Photometric titrations: When conventional electrodes reach their limits

  • Karl Fischer titration: Water determination carried out accurately and in line with current standards

  • Verification of titration: Securing results and meeting quality requirements

Who should download this handbook? Lab analysts and chemists performing titrations in chemical analysis, quality assurance, pharmaceuticals, or food and beverage production.
