Global Karl Fischer Titrators Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029
A Karl Fischer titrator, also known as a KF titrator, is used to determine the amount of water in a sample. Because the presence of water can affect many characteristics of a product, including reactivity, stability, and quality, KF titration is important to and is used in many industries. Food, oil, pharmaceutical, and semiconductor industries all use Karl Fischer titrators to maintain the quality of their products. There are two methods that can be used in Karl Fischer titration: volumetry, in which the amount of reagent that has been used determines the amount of water, and coulometry, in which an electrolysis reaction occurs and the amount of electricity used tells us the amount of water in the sample.

Segmentation Overview:
By type, Volumetric Titration segment accounted for the largest share of market in 2021.
Coulometric Titration
The Coulomb method is the electrolysis water method. The specific principle is that when the water is injected into the Karl Fischer reagent, the resistance of the reagent will change greatly. At this time, the instrument begins to electrolyze the water. When the water is electrolyzed, the reagent resistance returns to the original state. The test is completed. The amount of water that is electrolyzed is converted according to two electrons. This method has high automation, fast test speed and test accuracy.
Volumetric Titration
The saturation/concentration of the Karl Fischer reagent is calibrated, and then the reagent is added to the sample containing water, and the water content in the sample is calculated according to how much reagent is consumed. The accuracy of the method is poor, the test repeatability is also poor, and the degree of automation is relatively low, not suitable for measuring trace moisture.
Application Overview:
By application, the Foods and Beverages segment occupied the biggest share from 2017 to 2022.
