Summary of Test Method3.1 Iodate Detection SystemThe sample is burned in a stream of oxygen at a sufficiently high temperature to convert about97 %
10、 of the sulfur to sulfur dioxide. A standardization factor is employed to obtain accurate results. The combustion products arepassed into an absorber containing an acid solution of potassium iodide and starch indicator. A faint blue color is developed in theabsorber solution by the addition of stand
11、ard potassium iodate solution. As combustion proceeds, bleaching the blue color, moreiodate is added. The amount of standard iodate consumed during the combustion is a measure of the sulfur content of the sample.3.1 IR Detection SystemThe sample is weighed into a special ceramic boat which is then p
12、laced into a combustion furnaceat 1371C (2500F)1350 C (2460 F) in an oxygen atmosphere. Most sulfur present is combusted to SO2 which is then measuredwith an infrared detector after moisture and dust are removed by traps.

Thisknowledge can be used to predict performance, handling, or processing properties. In some cases the presence of sulfur compoundsis benefic
19、ial to the product and monitoring the depletion of sulfur can provide useful information. In other cases the presence ofsulfur compounds is detrimental to the processing or use of the product.5. Interferences5.1 For the iodate systems, chlorine in concentrations less than 1 mass % does not interfere
20、. The IR system can toleratesomewhat higher concentrations. Nitrogen when present in excess of 0.1 mass % may interfere with the iodate systems; the extentof such interference may be dependent on the type of nitrogen compound as well as the combustion conditions. Nitrogen does notinterfere with the
21、IR system. The alkali and alkaline earth metals, as well as zinc, phosphorus, and lead, do not interfere with eithersystem.5.
