Technical Properties
CI Phenolphthalein Indicator
Standardized 0.5% w/v phenolphthalein solution in isopropanol for acid-base titrations requiring a sharp visual endpoint in the moderately basic range. Used where a clean transition from colorless to pink matters more than operator guesswork.

Endpoint Indicator for Water Testing and General Industrial Analytical Work
Performance Trait
Fast Dispersion and Stable Endpoint Visibility in Aqueous Samples
Method Compatibility
Suitable for Laboratory Burette Titrations and Field Drop-Count Methods

Safety Profile
Mercury-Free; Hazardous Due to Isopropanol Carrier
Operational Notes
• The selling point is endpoint clarity — this reagent exists to make moderately basic titration endpoints sharp enough to trust
• Strong fit for total alkalinity and hydroxide alkalinity work where a vague endpoint turns the result into operator interpretation instead of analysis
• Isopropanol carrier improves solubility, dispersion, and endpoint visibility across a wide variety of aqueous sample types
• Suitable for water treatment, environmental monitoring, industrial process control, and general laboratory analytical work
• 1-litre packaging is sized for routine monitoring programs where endpoint reagent is consumed steadily rather than occasionally
• This is an analytical reagent, not a treatment chemical — its job is to make alkalinity and related titration numbers readable, repeatable, and defensible
Practical Fit
CI Phenolphthalein Indicator is the endpoint reagent for operators and analysts who need moderately basic titration endpoints to break cleanly and read consistently. It belongs in testing programs where alkalinity and related titration numbers are used to guide real treatment and process decisions.
