The application for multiparameter measurements of e-liquids explains the setup of a multiparameter system that simultaneously determines density, refractive index, pH, and UV/VIS color in multi-component samples like e-liquids. Samples of different natures, given by the presence or absence of nicotine as well as different flavors, are easily characterized with this configuration.
Background:
E-liquid refers to a liquid solution typically used in e-vapor products such as e-cigarettes. Together with flavoring agents and nicotine, it is mostly composed of vegetable glycerin (VG) and propylene glycol (PG).
Determination of the density and specific gravity of e-liquids are important quality indicators and are used in routine analysis. Along with these properties, pH and color determinations can be performed with a complete METTLER TOLEDO multiparameter system containing an Excellence Density Meter, Excellence Refractometer, Spectrophotometer and SevenCompact pH/Ion Meter.
The multiparameter system fully automates your processes and determines all parameters in a single procedure, either as a standalone setup or connected to LabX® PC Software.
