Abstract :
Refractometers frequently are used for medical, pharmaceutical, industrial fluid, petrochemical, plastic, food, and beverage industry applications. For example, they are used for measuring the concentrations of aqueous solutions: as the concentration or density of a solute increase, the refractive index increases proportionately. The paper describe development work of a flexible fiber optic refractometer and its evaluation.
