A novel method for measuring electrolytic conductivity with a polarization impedance control function
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The article presents an idealized model of the differential method utilized in conductometry to measure electrolytic conductivity (EC). It identifies the main drawback of the widely used differential method: the inability to control the influence of polarization impedance on EC measurement results. A criterion for the absence of error caused by polarization effects is proposed, involving equality between the ratios of resistance differences and cell constant differences. A novel method for EC measurement, termed the double differential method, is introduced. This method relies on repeated differential impedance measurements and incorporates an additional third impedance measurement of a virtual liquid column. The new approach enables the identification of polarization impedance influence on EC measurements and the calculation of measurement errors for correction. A 3 times lower type A measurement uncertainty value can be achieved by averaging the corrected results.
