Submarine Storage Batteries: Emergency Analysis for Chlorine Content of Electrolyte

Abstract

This report studies a method of analyzing for chlorine: (a) in battery water suspected of having been contaminated by chlorine, and (b) in storage battery electrolyte. For battery water, the procedure of chloride analysis of boiler water in the M.E.I. is directly suitable. But for electrolyte, none of the standard methods of analysis having proved applicable, a simple method based upon visually comparing the amount of silver chloride precipitated in the suspected electrolyte with that in a readily prepared standard, was devised.
