This might not be the best answer but, preparing a buffer solution allows one to keep the pH value the same when small amounts of acids or bases are added. Buffer solutions resist change in pH.

What are temperature buffers and how to prepare them?
A temperature buffer is a substance which can absorb large amounts of energy without changing its temperature much. It's not something you prepare to a calculated recipe like a pH buffer. For instance, if an acid and a base react in dilute solution, there will be only a small temperature rise because the heat quickly spreads out through the water.
How do you prepare 0.01M sodium borate buffer?
Weigh the correct mass of boric acid corresponding to 0.01M adjust the pH using NaOH
How do prepare 1X TE Buffer from 5X TE Buffer?
