It is applicable not only to isotropic transparent, translucent, coloured or opaque materials but also to anisotropic materials.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Method&nbsp;B: an immersion method (making use of the Becke line phenomenon) for determining the refractive index of powdered or granulated transparent materials by means of a microscope. Monochromatic light should, in general, be used to avoid dispersion effects.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"non-normative-note\">\n<div class=\"note-label\">\n  NOTE&nbsp;1\n <\/div>\n<p>The refractive index is a fundamental property which can be used for checking purity and composition, for the identification of materials and for the design of optical parts. The change in refractive index with temperature can give an indication of transition points of materials.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"non-normative-note\">\n<div class=\"note-label\">\n  NOTE&nbsp;2\n <\/div>\n<p>The accuracy of method&nbsp;B is approximately the same as that of method&nbsp;A when an experienced operator uses the method with extreme care (see <span class=\"xref\">Clause&nbsp;8<\/span>).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>BS EN ISO 489.
