What is a polarimeter?

Polarimetry will provide information about the molecular structure, the concentration of the substance and sometimes information about the solvent used. The optical activity is also influenced by temperature, the wavelength of the light, and the length of the optical path - the longer the path of the light through an optically active substance, the larger the angle of rotation. These variables may be used to control the sensitivity of the instrument.

How does a polarimeter actually work?

Polarimeter applications

The angle of rotation allows you to ascertain the identity and quality of substances as well as their concentration in mix tures. It can also indicate the progress of reactions and conversions. Polarimeters are used in a wide range of applications – from the determination of the purity and concentration of ngredients in pharmaceuticals to the maturity testing of agri cultural products to the measurement of the sugar con tent in beverages and candies.

Typical applications of polarimeters

Automation with polarimeters

Maximum efficiency and increased time savings through automation options - with our polarimeters P8000-TF and P8100-TF with their temperature-controllable measurement tubes, the entire measuring process can be carried out semi-automatically or fully automatically and without manual intervention, from sample supply to cleaning to drying.
