3、cope1.1 This test method covers the determination of chromicoxide in wet blue that has been partly or completely tannedwith chromium compounds. In general the samples will con-tain chromium content between 1 and 5 %, calculated aschromic oxide expressed upon a dry basis otherwise referred toas moist
4、ure-free basis (mfb).1.2 This test method is specific in that it applies to a sampleor samples that are the resultant ash following the execution ofTest Method D6716.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This s

Terminology3.1 DefinitionsThe terms and definitions employed withinthis test method are commonly used in normal laboratorypractice and require no special comment.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The perchl
8、oric acid method may be applied to the ashobtained in Test Method D6716. The resultant ash is dissolvedinto acidic solution in a blend of nitric acid and a preparedoxidation mixture consisting of sulfuric and perchloric acids.Once completed, oxidation of all trivalent to hexavalentchromium is execut
9、ed by controlled heating. Upon dilution, thechromium is indirectly (back) titrated volumetrically withstandardized thiosulfate using released iodine as the titrate. Theperchloric acid method requires less manipulation than proce-dures based on fusion of the ash. However care must be takenbecause of
10、potential hazards in the use of perchloric acid. Theperchloric acid method also tends to give low results.5. Significance and Use5.1 The procedure described is specific for chromium in wetblue. Vanadium is the only common interfering element andthis is rarely present in quantity. The precision and a
11、ccuracy ofthe methods are usually at least as good as the sampling of thewet blue itself, and the accuracy of previously performed testmethods.5.2 The chromium content of wet blue is related to thedegree of tannage obtained, and hence may be a matter forspecification in the purchase of wet blue. The
12、 proceduredescribed provides adequate accuracy for this purpose.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D31 on Leatherand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D31.02 on Wet Blue.Current edition approved Oct. 1, 2010.

Test Specimens9.1 The specimen shall be the ash of wet blue producedfrom the composite wet blue sample prepared in accordancewith Test Method D6659, and weighed and ashed according toTest Methods D6659 and D6716.10. Procedure10.1 Transfer the ash obtained from
34、the determination oftotal ash into a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask. Since the ash is verylight and easily blown by moving air (rendering the sampleincomplete), it is important to take extreme care to ensure thatall the ash is successfully transferred.10.2 Using extreme care, add 20 mL of nitric acid (HNO3
35、)to the flask.10.3 Next, carefully and slowly add 25 mL of the oxidizingmixture to the flask.10.4 Add a few glass anti-bumping beads (these will allowthe solution to boil evenly), then place the filter funnel into theneck of the flask.10.5 Under the perchloric acid hood, heat the solutiongently unde
36、r reflux conditions (using the small funnel as acondenser in the neck of the flask) until all organic matter isdestroyed and the color changes to a clear red-orange, indicat-ing oxidation of chromium. Do not allow the sample to boildry.10.6 Heat the solution for an additional 2 min to ensurecomplete
37、 oxidation; then rapidly cool the solution, rinse andremove funnel, then dilute to 125 mL with water. Rapidcooling can be achieved with the use of a cold water bath.10.7 Reheat the solution to boiling and continue boiling for7 to 10 min to expel any chlorine or oxides of nitrogen.10.8 Remove the fla
38、sk from the heat and allow the solutionto cool to room temperature.10.9 Once cool, add 30 mL of phosphoric acid and 25 mL ofthe 10 % potassium iodide solution, then stopper the flask.10.10 Place the flask in the dark and allow to stand for 5 minto allow complete release of iodine (dark brown color).
39、10.11 Titrate volumetrically with 0.1N standardized thiosul-fate solution.10.12 When the solution color has faded to a pale yellow-brown, add approximately 2 mL of the starch indicatorsolution. Continue the titration until the deep blue colorchanges to a clear blue-green.10.13 Record the titration v
40、olume.10.14 If the titration volume is less than 5 mL or more than50 mL, repeat the entire procedure, after adjusting the sampleweight so that the titration volume is toward the middle of theburette.10.15 Calculate the results in accordance with Section 11.11. Calculation11.1 Calculate the chromium
41、content as percentage ofchromic oxide (Cr2O3) in the wet blue as follows:Chromic Oxide Cr2O3!,%5 T 3 N 3 E 3 100 4 W !where:T = titration volume of sodium thiosulfate solution used,mL,N = Normality of the sodium thiosulfate solution,E = 0.025332 = chromic oxide (Cr2O3) equivalentweight, g,W = weight
42、 of wet blue originally weighed (for ashingduring Test Method D6716), g, and100 = conversion to percent.11.2 The above calculation gives the Cr2O3content of theleather on an “as weighed” basis. Since the chromium contentof wet blue is expressed upon a dry (moisture-free) basis, amoisture determinati
43、on, as found in Test Method D6658,should be run in accordance with the appropriate and acceptedprocedures for wet blue. If D is the percentage moisture foundin the sample, calculate the Cr2O3, dry basis (mfb) as follows:Chromic Oxide Cr2O3!,%5 T 3 N 3 E 3 100 4 W! 3 1 4 1 D4 100!#!where T, N, E, and
44、 W have the same significance as in 11.1.12. Report12.1 Report the percentage of Cr2O3to the nearest 0.01 %for each and all values.12.2 Duplicate runs that agree within 0.09 % absolute areacceptable for averaging (95 % confidence level).13. Precision and Bias13.1 ReproducibilityThe average differenc
45、e between tworesults (each the average of duplicate determinations) obtainedby analysts in different laboratories will approximate 0.06 %absolute. Two such values should be considered suspect (95 %confidence level) if they differ by more than 0.2 % absolute.13.2 BiasThe test method yields results th
46、at average1.75 % lower in relation to the standard sample of NBSK2Cr2O7. The 99 % confidence limits on this value are 1.50 to2.00 % as determined by triplicate analyses in five laboratories.NOTE 1The estimates of checks for duplicates and reproducibility in13.1 and 13.2 are based on an interlaborato
47、ry study of four leather samplesrun in triplicate in each of eight laboratories. The precision statementswere developed using Practice E180.14.
