1、Designation: C 323 56 (Reapproved 2006)Standard Test Methods forChemical Analysis of Ceramic Whiteware Clays1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 323; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of las

2、t revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These test methods cover the chemical analysis of claysused in the manufacture of ceramic whitewares.1.2 The analytical

3、procedures appear in the following order:SectionMoisture 7Loss on Ignition 8Silica 9Iron, Aluminum, and Titanium Oxides 10Iron Oxide 11Titania 12Alumina 13Lime 14Magnesia 15Alkalies 16NOTE 1These test methods have been compiled as standard proce-dures for use in referee analyses. These test methods,

4、 however, when thedetermination of iron oxide as Fe2O3is involved, are not intended topreclude the use of other procedures that give results within the permis-sible variations. For the sake of uniformity the classical Zimmerman-Reinhardt procedure is specified for the determination of iron oxide. It

5、 isrecognized that numerous other procedures are equally accurate and oftenmore convenient. The other procedures commonly in use include reduc-tion of an oxidized solution with zinc or other metal, and titration withstandard potassium permanganate (KMnO4) or potassium dichromate(K2Cr2O7) solution, a

6、s well as titration with a standard solution of titanouschloride in an oxidized solution. These procedures shall be consideredacceptable, provided the analyst has obtained results by his specialprocedure that check with the Zimmerman-Reinhardt procedure within thelimits specified in Section 17. It i

7、s suggested that National Institute ofStandards and Technology standard samples be used for checking theaccuracy of procedures.It will be understood that the making of a complete analysis of aceramic whiteware clay is a difficult procedure requiring a wide knowl-edge of the chemistry involved in the

8、 operations and a thorough trainingin carrying out the work. A skilled analyst of good training is thereforerequired to do the work. The descriptions here given cover the vital pointsof procedure, but frequent reference in regard to the details of the variousmanipulations should be made to “Applied

9、Inorganic Analysis” byHillebrand and Lundell2and to similar publications. Particularly in thedetermination of alumina, reference should be made to Scientific PaperNo. 286 of the National Bureau of Standards.31.3 The values stated in acceptable metric units are to beregarded as the standard. The valu

10、es given in parentheses arefor information only.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of reg

30、ghly. Tostandardize the solution, take two 50-mL portions in 400-mLbeakers, dilute, boil, and precipitate with NH4OH. Filter, andwash with hot water. Place the papers in the original beakers,add 15 mL of HCl, stir to macerate the paper, dilute, andprecipitate again with NH4OH. Filter, and wash with

31、hot wateruntil free of alkali salts. Ignite carefully, blast, and weigh. Fromthe weight determined, calculate the strength of the solution.4. Sampling4.1 Selection of SampleObtain the sample in accordancewith Practice C 322.4.2 Crush the sample in a small jaw or roll-type crusher withhardened tool-s

32、teel faces to pass a 2.36-mm (No. 8) sieve (Note2). Crush the sample to pass a 850-m (No. 20) sieve, mix, andquarter to about 50 g. Grind this 50-g sample so that it will allpass a 150-m (No. 100) sieve, unless otherwise specified, mixthoroughly, and place in a container that will ensure freedomfrom

33、 contamination. Do fine grinding in a suitable mortar(agate, mullite, alumina, or boron carbide) to prevent theintroduction of impurities. Take precautions to prevent con-tamination of the sample by steel particles from the samplingequipment during crushing or grinding.NOTE 2Detailed requirements fo

34、r these sieves are given in Specifi-cation E11.5. Method of Analysis5.1 Determine moisture on the sample in its ordinaryair-dried condition. Determine all other percentage composi-tions on moisture-free samples and report accordingly on amoisture-free basis. The drying temperature recommended forall

35、 moisture determinations is 105 to 110C. Whenever asample is weighed out for any determination other thanmoisture, it shall be moisture-free. If preferred, the sample maybe dried in a weighing bottle from which the required samplesshall be weighed out.6. Blank Determinations6.1 Make blank determinat

36、ions on the reagents for eachconstituent in the whiteware clay and deduct this blank in eachcase. For the determination of the silica (SiO2) blank, approxi-mately 0.25 g of Al2O3should be added as aluminum chloride.C 323 56 (2006)27. Moisture7.1 Weigh 1.00 g of the sample and heat to constant weight

37、at a temperature not under 105 nor over 110C. Record the lossin weight as moisture.8. Loss on Ignition8.1 Weigh 1.000 g of the moisture-free (105 to 110C)sample and heat to constant weight over a blast lamp, or in anelectric muffle furnace, at 900 to 1000C. Record the loss inweight as the ignition l

38、oss.9. Silica9.1 Weigh 0.5000 g of the moisture-free (105 to 110C)sample into a platinum crucible containing about5gofpowdered anhydrous Na2CO3and mix well with a platinumwire. Cover the mixture with a little more Na2CO3. Heatgradually to the full heat of a good burner (1000 to 1100C)maintained for

39、about 1 h until complete solution is obtained.Place the crucible cover on a triangle, and when the melt haspartially cooled, pour it on the lid (Note 3). When cool, placethe crucible and lid in a 150-mL beaker, placing the button ona watch glass above the beaker. Add 30 mL of HCl (1 + 1).When soluti

40、on is complete wash off the crucible and lid withHCl (1 + 4), taking care to remove all SiO2. Place the button inthe solution. Transfer the contents of the beaker to an evapo-rating dish and evaporate to dryness on a steam bath. Bake for1 h at 110C.Add 20 to 30 mL of HCl (1 + 1) and 50 mL of hotwate

41、r. When all salts have been dissolved, allow to settle forseveral minutes and then filter through a general-purpose gradeacid-washed medium-retention filter paper. Wash the SiO2three times by decantation using 20- to 30-mL portions of firsthot water, then HCl (1 + 1), then hot water again. Transfer

42、theprecipitate to the filter paper, removing all SiO2from the dishwith a policeman. Wash the paper and precipitate with hotwater until free from salt. To recover the small amount of SiO2remaining in the filtrate, evaporate to dryness, using the sameprocedure for baking and filtering as before. Combi

43、ne the twoprecipitates, place in a platinum crucible, and burn off thepaper carefully to prevent any loss of SiO2. Ignite the sampleto constant weight at 1100 to 1200C (15 to 20 min is usuallysufficient), cool in a desiccator, and weigh. Moisten the residuewith several millilitres of water, add 10 m

44、L of HF and three orfour drops of H2SO4. Evaporate the solution to dryness, ignitecarefully to prevent decrepitation, and blast for several minutesat 1100C. Cool the crucible in a desiccator, weigh, and repeatblasting to constant weight. The loss in weight from theoriginal silica residue represents

45、the SiO2content, except forthat part of the SiO2which is later recovered from alumina, andso forth.NOTE 3Another scheme to aid in subsequent solution of the fusedmelt is to rotate the crucible as it cools, spreading the mass up the sidewalls.10. Iron, Aluminum, and Titanium Oxides10.1 Fuse the resid

46、ue with1goffused potassium pyrosul-fate (K2S2O7) or sodium pyrophosphate (Na2S2O7), dissolve ina small amount of water, and add to the filtrate from the silicadetermination (Section 9).Add5gofNH4Cl and three dropsof 0.1 % methyl red solution. Heat the solution almost toboiling, and add slowly NH4OH

47、(1 + 1) until the indicator haschanged to a yellow color. Boil for several minutes to removethe excess ammonia. Allow to settle for 30 min and decantthrough an open, rapid-filtering acid-washed filter paper, trans-ferring the precipitate to the paper and washing the beaker andpaper several times wit

48、h a warm 2 % NH4Cl solution. Reservethe filtrate, “A,” for the determination of calcium oxide (CaO)and magnesium oxide (MgO) (Section 14). Return the precipi-tate and paper to the original beaker, add 50 mL of hot waterand 10 mL of HCl (sp gr 1.19). Stir until the precipitate isdissolved and the pap

49、er is well macerated. Dilute to about 200mL with hot water, precipitate and filter as before. Combinethis filtrate “B” with filtrate“ A.” Wash the paper and precipi-tate with a warm 2 % NH4Cl solution. Place the precipitate ina weighed platinum crucible and ignite. Continue the ignitionat 1200C to constant weight (15 to 20 min is usuallysufficient). Cool in a desiccator, and weigh with the cruciblecovered with the lid. The R2O3consists of the aluminum oxide(Al2O3), TiO2, and Fe2O3present in the sample. In addition,there may be small amounts of ph
