3、80 15282 0 Foreword This Subsection of BS6200 has been prepared under the direction of the Iron and Steel Standards Committee. It supersedes method1 for the determination of tantalum in BSI Handbook No.19, to which it is technically equivalent. BS6200 is a multipart British Standard covering all asp

4、ects of the sampling and analysis of iron, steel and other ferrous metals. A list of contents, together with general information, will be given in Part1, to be published in due course. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standar

NOTEBS6200-2 “Methods of sampling and sample preparation”, which will supersede BS1837, is currently in preparation. On its publication, this Subsection will be amende

19、d to include a requirement to sample in accordance with BS6200-2.BS6200-3.29.1:1986 2 BSI 09-1999 6 Procedure 6.1 Test portion Weigh, to the nearest0.001g, a test portion of10g. NOTEWhen the tantalum content exceeds0.005%m/m, the sample mass should be reduced proportionately and the test portion mad

20、e up to10g with high purity iron(3.10). 6.2 Blank test In parallel with the determination and following the same procedure, carry out a blank test using the same quantities of all the reagents. 6.3 Determination Place the test portion and5mg of high purity niobium metal powder(3.12) in an800mL squat

21、 beaker. Add50mL of hydrochloric acid(3.3), cover the beaker and heat. If necessary, add more of the hydrochloric acid in small increments until solvent action ceases. Oxidize cautiously with15mL of hydrogen peroxide(3.9). Dilute to about100mL with cold water and filter through a paper-pulp pad into

22、 an800mL tall-form beaker. Remove any particles adhering to the beaker with a rubber-tipped glass rod and wash the beaker and filter with hot hydrochloric acid(3.6). Reserve the filtrate. Transfer the filter to a platinum vessel, dry and ignite at a low temperature until carbonaceous matter is remov

23、ed. Then ignite at800 C. Cool. Add a few drops of oxalic acid solution(3.13) and1mL of hydrofluoric acid(3.7) and evaporate to dryness. Then ignite at a low temperature and finally at800 C. Cool. Fuse the residue with2g of potassium hydrogen sulphate(3.17), extract the melt with10mL of sulphuric aci

24、d(3.20) and add the extract to the reserved filtrate. Add5mL zirconyl nitrate solution(3.23). Dilute to500mL with hot water, heat to boiling and then add1g of phenylarsonic acid(3.14), freshly dissolved in about20mL of hot water. Stir and add a little paper pulp. Heat to boiling and simmer for about

25、5min. Allow to stand at about90 C for1h. Filter through a paper-pulp pad and wash six times with hot phenylarsonic acid wash solution(3.15). Dry the filter in a porcelain dish and ignite at a temperature not exceeding700 C. NOTE 1Platinum dishes should not be used for the ignition as they are readil

26、y attacked by the arsenical compound. Cool, transfer the residue to a platinum vessel, moisten with a few drops of water, dissolve the oxides with about5mL of hydrofluoric acid(3.7) and evaporate to dryness. Redissolve by warming gently with5mL of hydrofluoric acid(3.8), then cool. Pour the solution

27、 into a50mL separating funnel containing1mL of boric acid solution(3.2). NOTE 2The use of a plastic funnel for this addition will prevent any possibility of hydrofluoric acid attack on the neck of the separating funnel. Rinse the vessel with5mL of hydrochloric acid(3.5) and add to the separating fun

28、nel. Add10mL of4-methyl-pentan-2-one(3.11) and shake for30s. Allow the phases to separate, then run off the lower (aqueous) layer into a second separating funnel containing1mL of boric acid solution(3.2), retaining the organic layer in the first separating funnel. Add5mL of4-methylpentan-2-one(3.11)

29、 to the second separating funnel and shake for30s. Discard the lower (aqueous) layer, then combine the two organic extracts. Add1mL of boric acid solution(3.2),5mL of hydrofluoric acid(3.8) and5mL of hydrochloric acid(3.5); shake and allow the phases to separate. Discard the lower (aqueous) layer an

30、d pour the organic extract into a50mL platinum vessel. Rinse the separating funnel with a little4-methylpentan-2-one(3.11) and add to the platinum vessel. Cautiously evaporate to dryness under an infra-red lamp, in a current of air if possible. Heat gradually up to800 C and maintain at this temperat

31、ure for a few minute. Fuse the residue with2g of potassium hydrogen sulphate(3.17), extract with25mL of ammonium oxalate solution(3.1) into a100mL conical beaker and cool. Add2mL phosphoric acid(3.16) and20mL of pyrogallol solution(3.18). Transfer to a50mL volumetric flask, dilute to the mark with a

32、mmonium oxalate solution(3.1) and mix. Adjust the temperature to23 1 C and maintain for20min. NOTE 3Any other temperature between20 C and30 C is permissible provided that it can be controlled within 1 C and that the same temperature is used for the calibration. Set the spectrophotometer(4.1) to zero

33、 absorbance in relation to water. Measure the absorbance of the test solution and blank solution at a wavelength of400nm, using4cm cells(4.2). Convert the readings obtained to milligrams of tantalum by reference to the calibration graph(6.4).BS6200-3.29.1:1986 BSI 09-1999 3 6.4 Preparation of the ca

35、a series of six800mL squat beakers and add5mg portions of high purity niobium metal powder(3.12) to each. Continue in accordance with6.3, but in each case use the reserved platinum vessel containing the evaporated tantalum aliquots for the ignition of the silica precipitates. Prepare the calibration
