Assessment of Chemical Resistance of Barrier Materials based on Practical Application of Conductometry

A paper deals with basic theoretical approaches for conductometry employment and its possibilities within testing chemical resistance of barrier materials. A classical conductometry is one from the oldest electro-analytical methods which deals with a measurement of conductivity of solution in water or even another solvent with high relative permittivity when comes to dissociation of an electrolyte on ions. Within employment of conductometric test for evaluation of chemical resistance of barrier materials used in anti-gas protection of the Czech Armed Forces Chemical Corps specialists based theoretical principles have been used. Their application, however, have reached a certain degree of rationalization such as the employment of special carbon electrodes, ensuring temperature compensation within performing long measurements and ensuring mixture of the electrolyte.
