Use of Ubbelohde Master viscometers as a national standard in metrological institutes

National metrological institutes are responsible for the dissemination of the units of physical quantities. Known are especially the quantities mass, length and time: e.g. there are four atomic clocks in operation in Germany, at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt in Brunswick (PTB), which provides the time standard for legal time in Germany. more

Which pH electrode do I need for my acid-base titration application?

In an ideal world, there would be only one pH electrode for all their acid-base titrations. In this ideal world, it would not matter whether the solution to be titrated was aqueous or non-aqueous, had a high or low conductivity and whether only a few ml were to be titrated in a small vessel or 250 ml in a 400 ml beaker. One electrode would fit all of these applications.more
