Terminology3.1 For definitions of terms used in this test method, refer toTerminology D1129.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method3is dependent upon the fact thatmetallic atoms, in the grou
8、nd state, will absorb light of thesame wavelength they emit when excited. When radiation froma given excited element is passed through a flame containingground state atoms of that element, the intensity of thetransmitted radiation will decrease in proportion to the amountof the ground state element

A hollow-cathodelamp whose cathode is made of the element to be determinedprovides the radiation.4.2 The metal atoms4to be measured are placed in the beamof radiation by aspirating the specimen into an oxidant-fuelflame. A monochromator isolates the characteristic radiationfrom the hol

Significance and Us
17、e5.1 Since water containing acid-soluble barium compoundsis known to be toxic, this test method serves the useful purposeof determining the barium in brackish water, seawater, andbrines.6. Interferences6.1 Ionization interference is controlled by adding potas-sium.6.2 Matrix interferences, caused by
18、 high concentrations ofvaried ions, and spectral interference, caused by high calciumconcentrations, are controlled by matching the matrices.6.3 This test method is subject to calcium interference, butthe procedure provided eliminates the interference effect of upto 750 mg/L calcium. Calcium interfe
19、rence can also beminimized by using a secondary wavelength of 455.4 nm.6.4 In high sulfate waters, such as seawater, barium will beprecipitated as barium sulfate and will not be present as solublebarium and will, therefore, be below the detection limit of thetest method.7.

However, the parameters that followhave been found suitable for some types of equipment.10.3.1 Turn on the instrument.10.3.2 Apply the current to the cathode lamp as suggestedby the manufacturer:Allow the instrument to warm up until theenergy source stabilizes. The time
36、required is from 10 to 20min.10.3.3 Ignite an air-acetylene flame. Increase the fuel flowuntil the flame is luminescent. Let the flame stabilize (about1015 s). Switch to the nitrous oxide. Provide concentration ofmetal in accordance with the instructions outlined by themanufacturer, to give maximum
37、sensitivity.10.3.4 Let the fuel-oxidant mixture burn for 10 to 15 minbefore operating the instrument.10.4 Operate the instrument in the absorption mode andaspirate the 0 mg/L barium standard and set the instrument tozero absorbance.10.4.1 Aspirate the 10 mg/L barium standard and record theabsorbance
38、 reading. This value is used for roughly estimatingthe barium concentration in a sample.10.4.2 Operate the instrument in the concentration modeand optimize the instrument settings.10.4.3 Aspirate the 1.0, 2.5, and 5.0 mg/L barium standardsand record the absorbance readings.10.4.4 Construct a calibra
39、tion curve from the barium con-centrations and absorbance readings by plotting the milligramsper litre of barium versus the absorbance readings.11. Procedure11.1 Determine barium at the 553.6-nm wavelength with anitrous oxide-acetylene flame.11.1.1 Operate instrument in an absorption mode.11.1.2 App
40、roximate Barium ConcentrationAspirate asample of water or brine (previously filtered through a No. 325(0.45-m) filter) into the flame and record the absorbancereading. The absorbance reading is compared to the 10 mg/Lbarium standard (10.4.1) absorbance reading.NOTE 2All absorbance readings on waters
41、 of high mineral contentshould be made as quickly as possible. Highly saline waters causeclogging of the burner which results in large errors in the determinations.In some instances, the oxidant and fuel have to be turned off and theburner cleaned before completing a series of determinations.11.1.2.
42、1 Transfer an aliquot of the water or brine, containingapproximately 0.1 to 0.5 mg of barium, to a 100-mLvolumetricflask.11.1.2.2 Add 5.0 mL of concentrated HCl (sp gr 1.19) and10 mL of potassium solution (1 mL = 10 mg K) to the flask.Dilute the sample to 100 mL with water.11.2 Operate the instrumen
43、t in the concentration mode.11.3 Aspirate the sample and record the absorbance reading.12. Calculation12.1 Calculate the concentration of barium ion in theoriginal sample in milligrams per litre using the calibrationcurve prepared in 10.4.2 through 10.4.4 as follows:Barium concentration, mg/L 5 A 3
44、D/Vwhere:A = barium read from the calibration curve,D = dilution volume (volume the sample was diluted to),andV = volume of sample.13. Precision and Bias613.1 The precision and bias data presented in Table 1 forthis test method meet the requirements of Practice D2777. Thedata shown have been rounded
45、 from unrounded data in theresearch report.13.2 The precision and bias estimates in Table 1 are basedon an interlaboratory study on four artificial brine samplescontaining various amounts of barium and interfering ions asshown in Table 2. One analyst in one laboratory and twoanalysts in each of four
46、 laboratories performed single determi-nations on each of three days. Practice D2777 was used indeveloping these precision and bias estimates. It is the usersresponsibility to ensure the validity of this test method forwaters of untested matrices.13.3 Precision and bias for this test method conforms
47、 toPractice D2777-77, which was in place at the time of collab-orative testing. Under the allowances made in 1.4 of D2777-08,these precision and bias data do meet existing requirements forinterlaboratory studies of Committee D-19 test methods.14. Quality Control14.1 In order to be certain that analy
48、tical values obtainedusing these test methods are valid and accurate within theconfidence limits of the test, the following QC procedures mustbe followed when analyzing barium.14.2 Calibration and Calibration Verification:14.2.1 Analyze at least three working standards containingconcentrations of ba
49、rium that bracket the expected sampleconcentration prior to analysis of samples to calibrate theinstrument.14.2.2 Verify instrument calibration after standardization byanalyzing a standard at the concentration of one of thecalibration standards. The absorbance shall fall within 4% ofthe absorbance from the calibration. Alternately, the concen-tration of a mid-range standard should fall within +/- 15% ofthe known concentration.14.2.3 If calibration cannot be verified, recalibrate theinstrument.14.3 Initial Demonstration of Laboratory Capability:14.3.1 If a laborat
