VerraGlo™ Peroxide Number Color Field Test
The VerraGlo Peroxide Number Color Test for petrochemicals & renewable biodiesel can determined the Peroxde Number (mg/Kg) with only 5 drops of fuel, and comparison to a standard color chart (see image), or using a reflectance colorimeter. An alternate format of this test can be used to measure the Peroxide Value in edible oils (milliequivlants/Kg).
Advantage of the VerraGlo™ Peroxide Number Color Test Over Other PN Methods:
Can be conducted in the field with 5 drops of fuel (ca. 300 uL) with results in about 15 min.
Does not use or generate toxic solvents that are expensive to purchase, must be used under a laboratory fume-hood, and that have to be disposed of as hazardous waste
The method uses no laboratory glassware, no solvents and no cleanup; the sample vial is disposable
Improved sensitivity, precision and readability in the low PN range (Limit of Quantification of 1.7 mg/Kg)
