HI3859* CTK Glycol (present/absent) - 25 Tests

Product information "HI3859* CTK Glycol (present/absent) - 25 Tests"
Significance of Use

Ethylene glycol is widely used as a coolant and antifreeze. Its presence in motor oil or tranmission fluid is an indication of a perforated engine block or of a leakage in the cooling systems. The Hanna Glycol test kit can be used for water as well as oil samples to determine traces of ethylene glycol and other 1,2 glycols above 30 mg/L (ppm). Ethylene glycol and other 1,2 glycols are determined by a two step reaction:

Step 1: Glycol is oxidized to two carbonyl groups under acidic conditions.

Step 2: The carbonyl groups react with the indicator in the HI3859C-0 reagent powder packet to give a colored solution.
