What are the uses of colorimetry?


A colorimeter is any device which uses to determine the colors and its intensity from the sample solution based on the Beer-Lambert Law. It has a wide range of applications, including analysis of soil components, laboratory research, environmental analysis of water quality and analysis of chemicals used in various manufacturing settings.
The uses of colorimetry are as follows.
  • Colorimetry is commonly used to determine the concentration of a colored compound by determining transmittance, optical density or its absorption.
  • A colorimeter ensures the consistency and quality of the colors in the fabric and paint
  • It is used to determine the food quality, to confirm that they do not spoil by determining their specific color.
  • It is used in the quantitative analysis of colored samples.
  • The colorimetry is used to test water quality.
  • A component can be identified by measuring the absorption spectrum in the visible range of the light spectrum.
  • It is used by the paints and textile manufacturers.
  • The colorimeter used as qualitative and quantitative analysis of colored samples.
  • It is used by the food industry to ensure the quality of the product.
  • Applications of colorimeter have the measurement of color and it is temperature.
  • Colorimetry is also used by pharmaceutical manufacturers.
  • It can also be used to measure the course of a reaction by determining the formation rate and disappearance of light-absorbing analytes in the region of the visible spectrum of light.
