  Refractometer is a laboratory or field device for the
measurement of an index of refraction (refractometry).
What is The index of refraction is calculated from Snell's law while for
mixtures, the index of refraction can be calculated from the
refractometer ? composition of the material using several mixing rules such as
the Gladstone–Dale relation and Lorentz–Lorenz equation.
  There are four main types of refractometers: 
1.traditional handheld refractometers
2. digital handheld refractometers
Types of 3. laboratory or Abbe refractometer
refractometer 4. inline process refractometers. 

5.There is also the Rayleigh Refractometer used (typically) for

measuring the refractive indices of gases.
