1、Designation: C 867 94 (Reapproved 2007)Standard Test Method forSoluble Sulfate in Ceramic Whiteware Clays (PhotometricMethod)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 867; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision

2、, the year of last 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 This test method covers the determination of solublesulfate ions present in water or a filtrate by mean

3、s of aphotometer measuring the turbidity of precipitated bariumsulfate. A method of standardizing the photometer for this testmethod is also given.1.2 Soluble sulfate ions may be removed from clays orclay-water slurries by leaching with water during mixing andsubsequent filter pressing. To remove al

4、l the sulfate ions wouldrequire an impractical number of washings; therefore, this testmethod should be considered a control test and not a quanti-tative analysis for SO4ions.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibi

5、lity of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Standardization of Apparatus5.1 It should be noted that the instrument requires about 30min to warm up. Keep a blank cell in the instrument when asample is not in the holder. For

16、 SO4determination, the filterwavelength should be set at 550 nm.5.2 Using the appropriate pipettes, measure 25 ml of thestandard 100 ppm solution into a 125 ml Erlenmeyer flask.Add5 ml of glycerine reagent and 2.5 ml of salt-acid reagent andstir thoroughly.5.3 Fill a clean transmission cell with the

17、 prepared solution.Be sure to wipe off any droplets of water or solution on theoutside of the cell since this may interfere with the readings.5.4 Insert the cell into the cell holder. Put the 550 nm filterin place and adjust the transmission to read 100.0 percent.5.5 Pour the contents of the cell ba

18、ck into the flask and add1 THQ cupful of BaCl22H2O crystals. Stir thoroughly, makingsure that all crystals are dissolved. Let stand undisturbed for 5min.5.6 After the standing time, quickly fill a clean transmissioncell with the solution and insert it into the cell holder.Again, besure that no water

19、 or solution droplets are adhering to theoutside of the cell. Read percent transmission to the nearest1%.5.7 The standard 100 ppm solution is then made into a seriesof lower concentration solutions in accordance with the fol-lowing dilution chart:ml 100 ppm Sulfate Solution ml H2O ppm Sulfate ion90

The percent transmission is tobe plotted against the ppm sulfate ion concentration and asmooth curve drawn through the points. The result

21、ing chart isto be used in determining the sulfate concentrations of un-known samples of water or filtrate.6. Procedure6.1 The clay sample, if in crude lump form, is to be dried at105C for 24 h, crushed with the mortar and pestle andpulverized with a micro-pulverizer. If air-floated, continue with6.2

22、. If slurry continue with 6.4.6.2 A150-g portion of the ground dried clay is then weighedto the nearest 0.1 g.6.3 Blunge the clay in 350 ml of reagent grade water for 30min at high speed using the Hamilton Beach drink mixer.6.4 Place a fresh piece of Baroid filter paper in the cylinderof a Baroid Fi

23、lter Press. Pour the slurry into the cylinder andtighten the screw on the lid of the cylinder.6.5 Pressure is applied gradually until 100 psi is obtained.Filtrate is caught in an Erlenmeyer flask. To eliminate errorsfrom initial turbidity, the first 5 ml of filtrate is discarded.6.6 Prepare the filt

24、rate for testing by carefully transferringthe desired quantity of filtrate from the Erlenmeyer flask to aclean 30 ml beaker using the appropriate pipette. A25 ml totalsample is used for testing; this sample may be comprised ofbetween 1 ml and 25 ml of filtrate depending on the sulfate ionconcentrati

25、on in the filtrate. If the selected quantities yieldreadings beyond the calibration line, further dilution is re-quired. For example, if one initially prepares a sample of 15 mlof filtrate and 10 ml of DI H2O (25 ml total) and obtains apercent transmission reading below the calibration chart, thenon

26、e should probably use 5 ml of filtrate and 20 ml of DI H2Ofor the next test. One should use very accurate measuringpipettes when transferring any filtrate or water in this test.6.7 Add 5 ml of glycerine solution and 2, 5 ml of salt-acidreagent to the solution in the 30 ml beaker.6.8 Stir thoroughly

27、with a clean glass rod.6.9 Pour the solution into a transmission cell taking care notto create any air bubbles or spill solution on the side of the cell.(Do not touch the unfrosted side of the cell).6.10 Adjust the meter to the 100 % transmission mark onthe scale by using the calibration knob.6.11 P

28、our the contents of the cell back into the beaker andthoroughly rinse and dry the cell. (Do not scratch the cell).6.12 Add 1 THQ cupful of BaCl22H2O crystals to thesolution.6.13 Stir carefully and make sure all the crystals aredissolved.6.14 Allow to stand for five min.6.15 Pour the solution into th

29、e transmission cell and insertthe cell into the holder. Record the percent transmission.7. Report7.1 From the percent transmission readings obtained, usethe following method to calculate soluble sulfate ion concen-tration in ppm.7.2 Percent transmission is converted to ppm SO4of thedilute solution b

30、y using the prepared calibration chart.7.3 The dilution factor is obtained by dividing 17.5 ml bythe number of ml of filtrate used.7.4 The water/solids factor is obtained by dividing the %water by the % solids. For 150-g clay and 350-g H2O, thefactor is 2.33.7.5 Use the following formula to calculat
