Dissolved iron is determined by atomizing the filteredsample directly with no pretreatment. Total recoverab

24、le iron isdetermined by atomizing the sample following hydrochloric-nitric acid digestion and filtration. The same digestion proce-dure may be used to determine total recoverable nickel (TestMethods D1886), chromium (Test Methods D1687), cobalt(Test Methods D3558), copper (Test Methods D1688), lead(

25、Test Methods D3559), manganese (Test Methods D858), andzinc (Test Methods D1691).9.

PrecautionWhen HCl is distilled an azeotropic mixture is obtained (approximately 6N HCl). Therefore, wh

30、en concentrated HCl is specified for the preparationof reagents or in the procedure, use double the volume specified if distilledacid is used.11.2 Nitric Acid (sp gr 1.42)Concentrated nitric acid(HNO3).NOTE 4If the reagent blank concentration is greater than the methoddetection limit, distill the HN

34、nt:11.6.1 Air, which has been passed through a suitable filter toremove oil, water, and other foreign substances is the usualoxidant.11.7 Fuel:11.7.1 AcetyleneStandard, commercially available acety-lene is the usual fuel. Acetone, always present in acetylenecylinders can affect analytical results. T

35、he cylinder should bereplaced at 50 psig (345 kPa). (Warning“Purified” gradeacetylene containing a special proprietary solvent rather thanacetone should not be used with poly vinyl chloride tubing asweakening of the tubing walls can cause a potentially hazard-ous situation.)12. Standardization12.1 P

36、repare 100 mL each of a blank and at least fourstandard solutions to bracket the expected iron concentrationrange of the samples to be analyzed by diluting the standardiron solution with HNO3(1 + 499). Prepare the standards eachtime the test is to be performed.12.2 When determining total recoverable

37、 iron add 0.5 mL ofHNO3(sp gr 1.42) and proceed as directed in 13.1 through13.5. When determining dissolved iron proceed as directed inNote 5, 13.1.12.3 Aspirate the blank and standards and record the instru-ment readings. Aspirate HNO3(1 + 499) between each stan-dard.12.4 Prepare an analytical curv

38、e by plotting the absorbanceversus concentration for each standard on linear graph paper.Alternatively read directly in concentration if this capability isprovided with the instrument.13. Procedure13.1 Measure 100.0 mL of a well-mixed acidified sampleinto a 125-mL beaker or flask.NOTE 5If only disso

39、lved iron is to be determined, start with 13.5.13.2 Add 5 mL of HCl (sp gr 1.19) to each sample.13.3 Heat the samples on a steam bath or hotplate in awell-ventilated hood until the volume has been reduced to 15to 20 mL, making certain that the samples do not boil.NOTE 6When analyzing samples of brin

40、es or samples containingappreciable amounts of suspended matter or dissolved solids, the amountof reduction in volume is left to the discretion of the analyst.13.4 Cool and filter the samples through a suitable filter(such as fine-textured, acid-washed, ashless paper), into100-mL volumetric flasks.

41、Wash the filter paper two or threetimes with water and adjust a volume.13.5 Aspirate each filtered and acidified sample and deter-mine its absorbance or concentration at 248.3 nm. AspirateHNO3(1 + 499) between each sample.14. Calculation14.1 Calculate the concentration of iron in the sample, inmilli
