Cargille Refractive Index Liquids
Refractive index liquids are used worldwide for the identification of particles by microscopic immersion techniques, mounting media for matching/contrasting index combinations, dispersion staining, and to calibrate refractometers and other instruments.

Cargille Refractive Index Liquids have a broad range of applications in diversified fields, including:
IDENTIFICATION
Identify minerals, ores, chemicals, specimen fragments, plastics, gems, translucent or transparent solids by microscopic immersion techniques.
MOUNTING MEDIA
Temporarily mount specimens in various index media for matching or contrasting index combinations.
OPTICAL ANALYSIS
Microscopically study solids by dispersion staining, focal masking, and double variation refractometry techniques with high dispersion liquids.
REFRACTOMETRY
Calibrate refractometers and other optical instruments.
SPECTROPHOTOMETRY
Determine refractive index of specimens by referral to calibration curves relating wave length to index of refraction.
OPTICAL COUPLING
Couple optical elements with liquids formulated for refractive index and viscosity.
OPTICAL LENSES
Obtain unique optical properties of hollow lenses by filling with index of refraction liquids.
ELECTRO-OPTICS
Examine and preserve cathode coating without stripping or re-immersion by utilizing oils matching index of crystals.
POLLUTION
Identify particles and particulates from air or water.
FLUID FLOW
Photograph flow patterns by filling test system with refractive index liquids having suspended beads.
