ので、この濃度範囲における測定が特に重要とされる。2. Description of the Related Art Sulfuric acid is widely used industrially, and it is often necessary to know the concentration of sulfuric acid when using it. Therefore, measuring the sulfuric acid concentration is very significant industrially. For example, in a lead-acid battery, the sulfuric acid concentration changes with charge and discharge as shown in Chemical Formula 2 below, and therefore the amount of charge and discharge of the lead-acid battery can be measured by measuring the sulfuric acid concentration. Further, if it can be easily measured, it is possible to control the charge / discharge electric quantity of the lead storage battery. During charge / discharge of a lead-acid battery, the sulfuric acid concentration usually changes in the range of about 8 to 45%, so measurement in this concentration range is particularly important.

っていた。Conventionally, as a method for measuring the sulfuric acid concentration,
A specific gravity measuring method and a refractive index measuring method are known. However, in the method of (1), since the measurement is performed using the float, it is difficult to read automatically and it is difficult to take out as an electric signal to the control system. In the other method, a relatively long optical path is required in the sulfuric acid solution to be measured, and it is necessary to convert light into electricity. Therefore, the measuring device is large-scale and expensive.
