HunterLab systems measure reflected and transmitted color of chemical and petroleum products in the form of powders, pellets, granules, tablets, fibers, pastes and liquids. In addition to measuring color they can also measure metrics such as APHA/PtCo/Hazen, Gardner Scale, Saybolt, ASTM D1500, yellowness/whiteness and transmission haze. Portable, bench and on-line systems are available.

The UltraScan VIS spectrophotometer measures measures both reflected and transmitted color, and meets CIE and ASTM guidelines. As recommended by the CIE, spectral data is measured, and tristimulus color calculations are performed, from 360 nm to 780 nm. Its light source is controlled in the ultraviolet region for the accurate measurement of whitening agents. APHA, Saybolt, Gardner, ASTM D 1500, yellowness, whiteness and haze can be measured. The system's sphere geometry virtually eliminates errors introduced by sample haze.

Measuring Hot Liquids Using HunterLab Instruments
When color measurements of hot liquids are required, it is generally because the samples of interest are solid powders or crystals at room temperature, but the colors of the samples in solid form are not different enough for color measurement to differentiate between them. Read more...
