The different techniques have been described to reflect th

Variations also exist in the range of chromic oxide that the methods are deemed suitable to quantify.This document describes a traditional technique applied in industry that doe

This is an analysis for total chromium in leather; it is not compound specific or specific to its oxidation state.This method describes the determination of chrome by iodometric titration and is to be applicable to chromiumtanned leathers which are ex

It is appropriate to use either method.2 Normative referencesThe following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all

If sampling in accordance with ISO 2418 is not possible (as in the case of leathers from finished products like shoes or garments), details about sampling shall be given together with the test report.Weigh accurately the prepared leather to the nearest 0,001 g. (Suggested masses are ful

From every leather sample, a minimum of two determinations shall be made.6 ReagentsUnless otherwise stated, only analytical grade chemicals are to be used. The water shall be grade 3 in accordance with ISO 369

All solutions are aqueous solutions.6.1 Wet oxidation method6.1.1 Nitric acid, 70 %.6.1.2 Sulfuric acid, concentrated (98 %), and perchloric acid (60 % to 70 %), mixed together in the ratio of 1:3 by volume.6.1.3 Orthophosphoric acid, 90 %.6.2 Alkaline fusion method6.2.1 Fusion mixture, consistin

19、odWARNING It is imperative that nitric acid is added first because of the possible explosive reaction of perchloric acid with leather.Accurately weigh a mass of leather (see Clause 5) into the conical flask (7.1). Add 10 ml of nitric acid (6.1.1) and allow to stand for 2 min. Add 15 ml of mixed sulf

20、uric/perchloric acids (6.1.2) and a few antibumping granules (7.5). Place a funnel or splash bulb in the neck of the flask and heat to boiling on a wire gauze over a moderate flame. As soon as the reaction mixture begins to turn orange, lower the flame. After a complete change of colour, heat gently

21、 for at least 2 min. Allow to cool in air for 5 min and dilute to approximately 200 ml. Boil for 10 min to eliminate any chlorine. Allow to cool and add 5 ml of orthophosphoric acid (6.1.3) to mask any iron.The use of a sulfuric/perchloric acid mixture is preferred to the use of the individual acids

22、 as it prevents the accidental use of perchloric acid alone.In the case of incomplete oxidation (i.e. the solution does not change to an orange colour), it is permissible to add further mixed sulfuric/perchloric acid to the sample.8.1.2 Alkaline fusion methodAsh the accurately weighed sample of leat

23、her (see Clause 5) in accordance with ISO 4047. In the crucible (7.2) containing the leather ash, carefully add 5 g of fusion mixture (6.2.1) and mix well using a platinum wire or thin glass rod. Start by heating the crucible gently on an open flame, then heat more fiercely for approximately 30 min.

24、 (A muffle furnace operating at 750 C 50 C for at least 30 min may be used to heat the melt.) After cooling, place the crucible in a beaker containing 100 ml to 150 ml of boiling water and continue to heat the water until the fusion mixture has completely dissolved. Filter (7.4) the solution obtaine

25、d into the conical flask (7.1). Thoroughly wash the beaker, crucible and filter with hot water, collecting the washings in the flask. Carefully add at least 10 ml hydrochloric acid to the flask and allow to cool down to room temperature.8.2 Measurement of the aqueous solutionAdd to the solution obta

26、ined from 8.1.1 or 8.1.2 20 ml of potassium iodide solution (6.3.1), stopper the flask and leave to stand for 10 min in the dark. Titrate with 0,1 mol/l sodium thiosulfate solution (6.3.2) until the solution in the flask is either light green or blue using 5 ml of starch indicator solution (6.3.3) (

27、or a small quantity of starch powder), added towards the end of titration. Note the millilitres of thiosulfate solution used.If starch solution is used, it should either be freshly prepared or should have been prepared with the addition of a little mercuric iodide to preserve the solution for severa

28、l months.If the titre is in excess of 50 ml, the analysis should be repeated using either smaller sample size or with appropriate dilution of the solution obtained from 8.1.1 or 8.1.2.9 Calculation and expression of results9.1 GeneralCalculate the following percentage.

31、lso permissible, if required, to quote the results based on the dry, degreased mass of the sample.9.2 RepeatabilityThe results of the duplicate determination should not differ by more than 0,1 % calculated on the original mass of the leather.10 Test reportThe test report shall include the following:

32、a) a reference to this document, i.e. ISO 53981;b) a description of the leather;c) a reference to the method used for sample preparation, type of digestion and measurement;d) the volatile matter content of the leather, in per cent;e) the results obtained based on dry sample mass to one decimal place
