 Technology Profile

Title:

Iodine Value Meter

Value Proposition:

Iodine value meter with a Sensing system consisting of working electrodes & test solutions and Measuring & Display System. The instrument is based on potential change between two electrodes, one reference and other sensing electrode when immersed into a mixture of test reagent & oil.  Changes in potential across two electrodes is a direct measure of iodine number displayed on LCD. 

Summary Application:

Detecting spuriousness of edible oils.

Advantages:
  • Portable
  • Low cost
  • Direct display of iodine number
  • Easy to operate
Commercialization Status: Already Commercialised
