Physical and chemical properties of the numerous PAG products can vary considerably. PAG products are usually aqueous solutions, although soHd products are also sold. Solutions range from colodess to amber and from clear to hazy in appearance specific gravities at 25 °G vary from about 1.2 to 1.35. Product viscosities, as measured by a Brookfield viscometer at 25 °G, are generally about 10 50 mPa-s(=cP), but can be much greater than 10, 000 mPa-s(=cP) for certain aged compositions. 

Evidence of the appHcation of computers and expert systems to instmmental data interpretation is found in the new discipline of chemometrics (qv) where the relationship between data and information sought is explored as a problem of mathematics and statistics (7—10). One of the most useful insights provided by chemometrics is the realization that a cluster of measurements of quantities only remotely related to the actual information sought can be used in combination to determine the information desired by inference. Thus, for example, a combination of viscosity, boiling point, and specific gravity data can be used to a characterize the chemical composition of a mixture of solvents (11). The complexity of such a procedure is accommodated by performing a multivariate data analysis.

The caramelization process can be conducted in open or closed vessels. The mixture obtained is cooled and filtered, and then the pH and specific gravity are adjusted by the addition of acids, alkalis, or water. The chemical composition and properties of caramel colors depend on reactants used and technical conditions such as time, temperature, moisture content, and pressure. During the caramelization... 

Petroleum is typically described in terms of its physical properties (such as density and pour point) and chemical composition (such as percent composition of various petroleum hydrocarbons, asphaltenes, and sulfur). Although very complex in makeup, crude can be broken down into four basic classes of petroleum hydrocarbons. Each class is distinguished on the basis of molecular composition. In addition, properties important for characterizing the behavior of petroleum and petroleum products when spilled into waterways or onto land and/or released into the air include flash point, density (read specific gravity and/or API gravity), viscosity, emulsion formation in waterways, and adhesion to soil.

As the author points out, the sulfuric acid-water system is one of the few examples of a liquid binary system in which certain properties change discontinuously. In this case dsjdp, where s is the specific gravity and p the per cent concentration of H2S04, has discontinuities at certain values of p. The most pronounced correspond to the compositions H2S04—H20 and H2S04—2H20. Mendeleev (102) believes that these characteristic points are connected with the formation in the solutions of definite chemical compounds. The more stable the compound the sharper the discontinuity in the property versus composition. 

Radioisotopes are widely used in die measurement of process variables, including the level of liquids and solids in tanks, silos, and other vessels, the density and specific gravity of fluids and solids, the thickness of sheets and coatings, the moisture content of soils and other solids, the mass flow of materials in pipelines or on belts, and the determination of chemical composition of raw materials, in-process materials, and end-products. Representative examples of these applications are given in Table 6. 

Physical Property Variables. These variables are concerned with the physical properties of materials with the exception of those properties which are related to chemical composition and direct mass and weight. Variables included are density and specific gravity, humidity, moisture content, viscosity, consistency, and structural characteristics, such as hardness, ductility, and lattice structure. 

Physical methods directly related to chemical composition have been used in efforts to detect adulterations of citrus products. Physical measurements include spectrophotometry (UV, fluorescence, colorimetry), gravimetric determinations (ash, specific gravity), mass spectrometry (isotope ratios), chromatography, and optical rotation.
