1869 Proc. Royal Soc. Edinb. 1866–9 6 128 This I can only explain by the fact well known to chemists who are familiar with titrimetric analysis, that in the saturation of a weak acid with ammonia the point of neutrality is not by any means well marked.

1884 W. Dittmar in C. W. Thomson & J. Murray Rep. Sci. Results Voy. H.M.S. Challenger: Physics & Chem. I. i. 4 ‘Chlorine’, in this section of the memoir, means total halogen calculated as chlorine. The determinations might have been made by means of the old-established gravimetric process, or by the ‘titrimetric’ process which was founded, many years ago, by Gay-Lussac upon the same reaction... I venture upon coining this word [sc. ‘titrimetric’] as a substitute for the customary ‘volumetric’, which I could not well have employed, as I estimated my standard solutions by weight and not by volume.

1953 Geol. Surv. Bull. No. 992. 51 Because the composition of the precipitate is constant, titrimetric procedures may also be used.
