Titrant
For Titratable Acidity In Wine Mini Titrator - HI-84102-50
The
HI-84102 is an automatic mini titrator for titratable acidity in wine. The
HI-84102-50 is the titrant solution to be used with the HI-84102. The
titrant is pre-standardized eliminating the need for any volumetric
glassware or a analytical balance. The HI-84102 with the prepared
HI-84102-50 makes titratable acidity titrations fast, accurate, and simple
to perform.
- Pre-standardized
titrant
- Clearly
marked expiration date and lot number

tight bottle with tamper-proof seal to ensure quality
The
determination of total acids in wine is made according to a neutralization
reaction, that is the reaction between the acids found in wine and a base.
Total acidity, also called titratable acidity, is the sum of the fixed and
volatile acids. In the United States the total acidity is usually
expressed in terms of tartaric acid, even though the other acids are
measured.
Total
acidity directly affects the color and flavor of wine and, depending on
the style of the wine, is sought in a perfect balance with the sweet and
bitter sensations of other components. Too much acidity makes wine tart
and sharp; too little makes wines flat, flabby, and uninteresting. Proper
acidity in wine is what makes it refreshing and an ideal accompaniment to
food.
The
HI-84102 mini titrator is designed to determine the acidity of wine by
potentiometric titration in the range of 0.0 to 25.0 g/L of tartaric acid.
Total acidity is measured on a degassed sample of wine to a fixed endpoint
of pH 7.00 or pH 8.20.
The
HI-84102-50 is a 110 mL bottle of alkaline titrant solution
that is used for the determinations of acidity in wine.
