AN-NIR-033
Cobalt content, solids content, specific weight and viscosity in cobalt octoate
Summary
This Application Note describes the simultaneous determination of the four most important analysis parameters of paint dryers – cobalt and solids contents, specific weight and viscosity – using a VIS-NIR analyzer. The visible range correlates with the metal content, while the NIR region provides the specific weight, viscosity and solids content.
