Hoping for a little help from lab scientists, chemists, etc

[Braunwyn]

I have, perhaps, an odd question that might not be answered. Are any of you familiar with Chlorine titrators? I'm hoping for a cliff notes version of what this is, what it's used for, reagents, maybe instrumentation, etc. I'm assuming chlorine is titrated, ok. But, the reason I'm asking is because I have a buffer on hand that states it's application is for Chlorine Titrators and that it's a Chlorine Titrimeter Reagent. From what I can gather, it's at extremly high concentration (around 10M), though concentration isn't listed on the bottle. I'm going off of the MSDS and info from cust. service support, which hasn't been terribly helpful. Ime, buffers are usually much lower in concentration (obviously) so I figure this buffer needs to be diluted. Either way, I think understanding its application would point me in the right direction.

Hi,
it might be late but i try to help.
There are different titration methods. iodometric, argentometric, potentiometric, with phenylarsenic oxide an maybe some more. It would be helpful if you could tell me which buffer you have.
You are right 10M seems a bit high and i guess its a stock solution from which you make diluted portions, but without knowing what it is i cant tell you.
On the MSDS there must be told what composition it has.
What do you want to do with the buffer?
