thymol blue 436, 545 and 595 nm
Water, propan-1-ol, phenolphthalein sodium salt, sodium hydroxide, methyl red, bromothymol blue monosodium salt, thymol blue monosodium salt.
The usual range of the color change on the indicator is between 1.5-2 pH units because of the sensitivity of the indicators. The universal indicator is used in most test.
Universal indicator is just that - an indicator. It is not intended as an accurate measurement system.
KOH
An indicator that changes its colour around pH value 5 should be used in this titration. Alternatively, instead of Thymol Blue, Methyl Orange or Methyl Red may be used.

Thymol blue will be yellow at pH < 8
From wikipedia: A universal indicator is typically composed of water, methanol, propan-1-ol, phenolphthalein sodium salt, methyl red, bromothymol blue monosodium salt, and thymol blue monosodium salt

Phenolphthalein, Metyl Orange, Methyl Red, Thymol Blue and Bromothymol Blue are some of the commonly used acid-base indicators. The property of such indicators should be the capability of showing a distinct chemical change with respect to a particular pH value.
Bromothymol Blue (BTB)Bromothymol blue is an indicator, a substance that changes color as the pH of a solution changes. Bromothymol blue is yellow in acidic solutions and blue in basic solutions.BTB can be prepared by mixing 0.1 g (a pinch) of bromothymol blue powder in 10 mL of a 4% solution of sodium hydroxide.Add 20 mL of alcohol and dilute to 1 L with distilled water.The solution should be deep blue.If it is green, add sodium hydroxide solution drop by drop until the solution turns blue.Bromothymol blue can be purchased from scientific supply houses.CAUTION: Sodium hydroxide is corrosive; the BTB solution should be prepared in a laboratory. BTB stains hands and clothes. Have students wear goggles and follow safety precautions when using BTB solution.
Universal indicators can be mixed with different substances. Universal indicators usually contain water, salt, propan-1-ol, sodium hydroxide, monosodium, phenolphthalein sodium salt, methyl red, bromothymol blue, and thymol blue monosodium salt
