The appearance of a persistent iodine color in the reaction mixture indicates the complete removal of free water by reaction with the reagent.
Note 1-The Karl Fischer reagent prescribed in this test method is prepared in two solutions, in which form it is more stable and less affected by atmospheric moisture.
