Product Description
Aniline Point Apparatus:- Four Methods of determining the aniline point are described of which method A is suitable for most petroleum products.Methods B & C are for petroleum sprits which vapourise appreciable at the Aniline point & D is for Petroleum products which are too dark for testing by method A.
Purpose and FunctionalityThe Aniline Point Apparatus is engineered for determining the aniline point, which indicates the miscibility temperature of aniline with petroleum-based liquids. This value is crucial for characterizing the aromatic nature of hydrocarbon products. With transparent glass construction, users enjoy enhanced visibility throughout the process. Its practicality makes it invaluable for routine analysis and research in laboratory environments.
Material Design and SafetyManufactured from robust transparent glass and fitted with a stainless steel sample cup, the apparatus combines clarity for easy observation with the durability needed for repeated chemical handling. Its lightweight design, at just 10-40 grams, facilitates effortless setup and transportation. Each unit is securely packed in a protective box, safeguarding it from transit damage.
FAQs of Aniline Point Apparatus:
Q: How does the Aniline Point Apparatus work?
A: The Aniline Point Apparatus determines the minimum temperature at which aniline and a petroleum sample mix completely in all proportions. By heating and visually inspecting the transparent glass vessel, users can identify the precise point of complete miscibility.
Q: What laboratory applications require the Aniline Point Apparatus?
A: This apparatus is essential in petroleum and chemical laboratories for quality control and research. It is used to assess the aromatic content and solvency characteristics of various hydrocarbon materials.
Q: When should the aniline point test be performed?
A: The test is typically conducted during the analysis of petroleum products to evaluate refining quality, compatibility, and suitability for further processing or blending applications.
Q: Where can the Aniline Point Apparatus be used?
A: It is best suited for controlled laboratory environments in research institutes, quality assurance labs, and chemical testing centersspecifically those involved in petroleum analysis.
Q: What are the benefits of using this apparatus?
A: Using the Aniline Point Apparatus provides reliable and reproducible results, offers clear visual observation due to its transparent glass construction, and supports safe, easy handling with its lightweight design.
Q: How should the Aniline Point Apparatus be stored and maintained?
A: After use, clean the glass parts thoroughly to prevent contamination, dry completely, and store in the provided protective padded box to protect from breakage and dust.
