Laurent’S Half Shade Polarimeter LILT-8300/28

The Laurent’s Half Shade Polarimeter is a precision optical instrument used for the measurement of optical rotation produced by optically active substances. It is widely employed in physics, chemistry, and pharmaceutical laboratories for determining the concentration and specific rotation of solutions such as sugars and other chiral compounds.
The instrument consists of two high-quality Polaroid elements, one acting as the polariser and the other as the analyser. The analyser is mounted on a circular scale graduated from 0° to 360° and can be rotated accurately to determine the angle of rotation produced by the sample under investigation.
The half-shade device incorporated in the instrument improves sensitivity and enables precise detection of the point of equal illumination, resulting in more accurate measurements of optical rotation.
