WATESMO is a test paper for the detection of water in the liquid as well as the vapor phase, in the liquid phase in aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons (gasoline, oil), in isopropanol and higher alcohols, in waxes, for determination of absorptive moisture in salts, in solid fats as well as aqueous emulsions of ointment bases. Depending on the type of sample, a water content of more than 10 - 15% can be indicated with WATESMO paper. In the vapor phase (indirect determination) the test strip is dipped into absolutely anhydrous Isopropanol and, while still moist, is placed into the medium to be tested, such as a current of air. The isopropanol acts as a solvent aid between the water vapor and WATESMO. After evaporation of the alcohol in the driest possible atmosphere, a blue color will appear, the intensity of which depends on the amount of water vapour present. WATESMO changes color from light blue to deep blue. Do not touch the test paper, except with absolutely dry fingers or forceps.
