VicoMeter at the Customer Site

The samples the customer tests are mainly polyether polyols and some related finished products. Polyether polyol is a translucent milky sample soluble in methanol, with a viscosity of about 200mm²/s~300mm²/s (the customer had not measured it; we judged it through the injector). Some related finished products of polyether polyol cannot be completely dissolved in methanol, so they cannot be tested directly with the WKT-A9.

On site, the VicoMeter engineer first checked the instrument's accessories with the customer, then tested the solubility of the customer's samples in methanol and explained what could be analyzed: they could test polyether polyols but not the related finished products. The customer confirmed that polyether polyols were the main target and that finished products could be skipped if hard to test. Demonstrations were therefore run directly on polyether polyol: the engineer performed two tests and the customer two, with all results between 300 and 400 ppm — accurate and repeatable. The instrument fully met the customer's polyether polyol testing requirements, and they were satisfied.
