Sample Requirements
The epoxy body of the fl uoride electrode is resistant to damage
by inorganic solutions. The electrode may be used intermittently
in solutions that contain methanol or acetone. Contact Technical
Support for information on using the electrode for specifi c
applications.
Samples and standards should be at the same temperature.
The solution temperature must be less than 100 °C.
In all analytical procedures, TISAB must be added to all samples
and standards before measurements are taken.
