pH Paper is a type of litmus paper. Litmus is a blue-violet dye derived from certain types of lichen. Its aqueous solution changes color when mixed with acidic or alkaline substances.
The pH value of a liquid can be measured using pH paper. The test strip changes color based on the acidity of the solution being tested. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, where 0 is highly acidic, and 14 is highly alkaline.
In chemistry, biochemistry, and technology, measuring the pH value is crucial, as it influences the outcomes of many analytical methods, depending on the pH of the solvent or buffer used.
In the private sector, pH value is especially important in maintaining swimming pool water quality, as the pH should remain neutral. If the pH is too acidic, metal components in the pool may corrode, while too alkaline water can cause skin and eye irritation during swimming.
