5-2-1.Preparation of reagent
Prepare the reagents and samples for measurement of bromine number and bromine index.
< Preparation of reagent >
Use the following reagent for measurement of bromine number or index:
Anode reagent ：Mixture of Acetic acid (high grade) 600mL; Methanol (high grade) 260mL;
1M-Potassium bromide solution 140mL. Blend it well and use
100mL each time.
Cathode reagent ：0.2M-Potassium chloride solution. Use 5mL each time.
Check solution ： 0.05Wt-Cyclohexenetoluene mixture (Approx. 93 ~

For bromine number, a sample is diluted with toluene to Bromine number 0.2 (g/100g),
and approximately 1g is used for measurement. Calculate the toluene to be used for
diluting to Bromine number 0.2 (g/100g) with the following equation:
