Thermometric titration – the missing piece of the puzzle

Oct 26, 2020

This article is Part 1 of a series.

Titration is a well-established analysis technique taught to each and every chemistry student. It is carried out in nearly every analytical laboratory either as manual titrationphotometric titration, or potentiometric titration. In this blog entry, I would like to present an additional kind of titration you may  not have heard of before – thermometric titration – which can be considered the missing piece of the titration puzzle.

Here, I plan to cover the following topics:

  1. What is thermometric titration?
  2. Why consider thermometric titration?
  3. Practical application examples

What is thermometric titration?

At first glance, thermometric titration (TET) looks like a normal titration and you won’t see much (or any) difference from a short distance. The differences compared to potentiometric titration are in the details.
