Significance and Use4.1 The grinding materials used for the preparation of the surfaces of specimens prior to analysis by optical spark atomicemission or X-ray emission spectroscopyfluorescence spectrometry can contaminate the surface and thus

7、. Especially in X-ray spectrometry,all phases of the surface preparation should be examined for potential contamination effects.4.3 Analytical significance of the contaminations observed depends on the needs of the analyst for the particular application ata given concentration position.5. Evaluation
8、 of Grinding Materials by Direct Analysis5.1 Table 1 shows an example of semiquantitative spectrographicspectrometric analysis of various grinding belts from differentproducers. An examination of these analyses identifies the elements most likely to contaminate the surface of the specimen. Themore c
9、ritical the element and the lower its concentration mass fraction in the specimen, the more important are low-levelconcentrationscontaminants in the belts.5.1.1 For example, using the 80-grit zircon belt in the determination of 0.5 % chromium, the trace level of chromium in the beltshould cause no p
10、roblem, but in the determination of 0.02 % aluminum, that belt probably will cause a problem. In thedetermination of calcium at ppmg/g levels in steel, even low levels of calcium in the belts cause problems.5.2 Figs. 1-6 show energy dispersive X-ray analyses of various belts and the same logic appli
11、ed in 5.1 can be used with theseanalyses. Major components in the belts will cause greater problems in the determination of these elements.1 This guide is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E01 on Analytical Chemistry for Metals, Ores, and Related Materials and is the direct responsibility ofS

27、26. Evaluation of Grinding Materials by Specimen Examination6.1 The effect of grinding materials depends on the analytical method. In optical spark atomic emission analysis, the preburnwill, in general, volatilize the grinding material left on or driven into the surface (see 6.3). For X-ray emission
28、fluorescence analysis,the material left on the surface will be analyzed as being specimen material.FIG. 1 EDX Analysis of Silicon Carbide Grinding Belt, 60-GritFIG. 2 EDX Analysis of Silicon Carbide Grinding Belt, 240-GritFIG. 3 EDX Analysis of Alumina Grinding Belt, 60-GritE1257 1636.2 Table 2 show
29、s X-ray emissionfluorescence analyses of a steel specimen after surfacing with various grinding materials. Bytabulating the results in this manner, it becomes obvious what problems are occurring from the various grinding materials. Wherethere is no change from material to material, beyond the precis
30、ion of the method of analysis and the homogeneity of the material,no contamination has occurred. But where the concentrationcomposition of a given element appears higher, there has beencontamination. Such is the case with the determination of silicon using the silicon carbide belt and the bonded dia
31、mond wheels;FIG. 4 EDX Analysis of Alumina Grinding Belt, 120-GritFIG. 5 EDX Analysis of Zircon Grinding Belt, 60-GritFIG. 6 EDX Analysis of Zircon Grinding Belt, 120-GritE1257 164with the determination of zirconium using zircon belts; with the determination of aluminum using the alumina and zircon
32、belts,the bonded diamond wheels, and the surface grinder; and with the determination of nickel using the metal bonded diamond wheel.6.2.1 This method requires the use of homogeneous materials to attain the required precision to detect low levels ofcontamination. Materials should be examined by repli
33、cate determinations using the same grinding material beforehand to assurethat they are homogeneous. If inhomogeneity seems to be excessive for one element, that may come from the grinding material,for example, silicon from silicon carbide, repeat the examination using a different grinding material.6
34、.2.2 Generally this method is convenient because it determines the contamination which actually occurs in the type of materialbeing analyzed and does not require analysis of the grinding material itself. An exception is the calcium determination mentionedin 5.2.1.6.3 In optical spark atomic emission
35、 analysis, a finite time is required to clean the specimen surface (by volatilization).Intensity-time studies show that preburn periods as long as 20 s can be required to reach stable intensity ratios for elementscomprising the grinding matrix. Fig. 7 shows time studies for carbon in a specimen surf
36、aced with silicon carbide, alumina, zircon,and a lathe. Fig. 8 shows the time studies for aluminum. Under the conditions used for these tests, a total of 4800 dischargesoccurred in the 20-s period. Sources running at lower rates may require longer preburn periods. Fig. 8 shows that, compared toa spe
37、cimen surfaced with lathe, the aluminum value found at the end of the preburn period can be higher on the alumina and zirconground specimens. Analytical significance will depend on the concentrationcomposition level. Similar results can be shown forother elements, especially silicon and zirconium un
38、der the conditions used. Different source conditions may show different results.6.3.1 Although the preburn generally removes most of the grinding material, in analyses where the highest accuracy is desired,grinding materials containing the analyte element should be avoided.7.
