How do I measure the color of semi-solid materials?

Posted on November 29, 2012 by Shannon

One thing to keep in mind when measuring creams, gels, pastes, and other semi-solid materials is to maintain a consistent sample thickness. One option is to “sandwich” a fixed quanity of your semi-solid material in a suitable clear-bottomed container, so that it can be placed at the port for measurement.

The label on the back of the instrument says ‘110v-220v’, which sounds a little ambiguous to me.  Do we need a voltage […]
