This method for the photometric determination of aluminium in magnesium and magnesium alloys is the twelfth of a series which will form a complete BritishStandard under the collective title “Methods for the analysis of magnesium and magnesium alloys” each being published as

11、a separate part. Other methods in the series are as follows: Part1: Aluminium (gravimetric method); Part2: Iron (photometric 1:10 phenanthroline method); Part3: Copper (photometric method); Part4: Manganese (photometric periodate method); Part5: Manganese (photometric periodate method) (low contents

12、); Part6: Zirconium (photometric method); Part7: Nickel (photometric method); Part8: Total rare earths (gravimetric method); Part9: Zinc (ion-exchange volumetric EDTA method); Part10: Manganese in magnesium alloys containing zirconium, rare earths or thorium (photometric method); Part11: Silicon in

13、magnesium and magnesium alloys. The preparation of this series of methods has been authorized by the Non-ferrous Metals Industry Standards Committee as part of a general programme for the standardization of methods for the sampling and analysis of non-ferrous metals. The methods have been found to g

14、ive reliable and reproducible results and while in some instances they may appear to be lengthy, it should be appreciated that they are primarily intended as “referee” methods to be used in cases of dispute. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. U

The sample is dissolved in sulphuric acid, iron and copper are complexed with ascorb

17、ic acid and sodium thiosulphate respectively. Chromazurol S is added to the buffered solution and the determination is completed photometrically. 1.2 Range. The method is recommended for acid soluble aluminium contents between0.005 and0.20%. 1.3 Reproducibility. Experiments have been carried out ind

18、ependently by a number of analysts using this method. The degree of reproducibility that can be expected is shown by the following analysis of the results obtained. 1.4 Application. This method is not suitable for magnesium alloys containing over0.10% of zirconium, and has not been tested on alloys

19、containing rare earths and thorium. 2 Apparatus 2.1 Class A volumetric glassware complying with the appropriate BritishStandards shall be used throughout. 2.2 pH meter fitted with a glass electrode. 2.3 Any instrument suitable for measuring the optical density of the solution at a wavelength of550nm
