Experience the Trace element fingerprint with Ash-Win-the effortless way to measure conductivity ash! Conductivity ash is a measure of the total ionic impurities in sugar. It is a highly crucial parameter because these impurities significantly impact the quality, stability, and processing of sugar and its downstream products.
Principle
When sugar is dissolved in water, the mineral salts (ash) dissociate into ions, while sucrose itself is a non-electrolyte and does not dissociate. Conductivity ash measurement quantifies these ionic components, offering a scientific fingerprint of sugar purity.
- ICUMSA Method GS2/3/9-17 (2011): Determination of Conductivity Ash in Refined Sugar Products and Plantation White Sugar.
- ICUMSA Method GS1/3/4/7/8-13 (1994): Determination of Conductivity Ash in Raw Sugar, Brown Sugar, and Molasses.
- Ash-Win: A dedicated instrument for rapid, direct measurement of conductivity ash percentage - no complex calculations required. Suitable for: White sugar, Plantation white, Raw sugar, Brown sugar, Specialty sugars, Molasses. An ideal tool for quality control labs to accurately quantify ionic impurities.
