35、rity criteria 4.1 General This document specifies the minimum purity requirements for aluminium iron (III) chloride (monomeric) and aluminium iron (III) chloride hydroxide (monomeric) used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in

36、the products. Depending on the raw material and the manufacturing process other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be notified to the user and when necessary to relevant authorities. NOTE Users of these products should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether it is of

37、 appropriate purity for treatment of water intended for human consumption, taking into account raw water quality, required dosage, contents of other impurities and additives used in the products not stated in this product standard. Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where

38、these are likely to be present in significant quantities from the current production processes and raw materials. If the production process or raw materials leads to significant quantities of impurities, by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user. 4.2 Composition of c

39、ommercial product The concentration of active matter (aluminium ion content) expressed as grams per kilogram of product (Al g/kg) shall be greater than 40 g/kg. The contents of aluminium and iron shall be within 3 % of the manufacturers declared values. The ratio Fe/Al shall be less than 0,50 for al

40、uminium iron (III) chloride hydroxides (monomeric) and less than 1,0 for aluminium iron (III) chlorides (monomeric). The relative basicity, expressed as the mole ratio OH/3(Al + Fe), shall be within the range 0 to 0,35 for aluminium iron (III) chloride hydroxides (monomeric). For aluminium iron (III

41、) chloride (monomeric), the basicity is zero. Aluminium iron (III) chloride (monomeric) often have a free acidity. 4.3 Impurities and main by-products The content of insoluble matter shall be lower than 25 g/kg (Al + Fe). 4.4 Chemical parameters The product shall conform to the requirements specifie

45、er, by rolling it or by rocking it from side to side, taking care not to damage the container or spill any of the liquid. 5.1.2.1.2 If the design of the container is such (for example, a narrow-necked bottle) that it is impracticable to use a sampling implement, take a sample by pouring after the co

46、ntents have been thoroughly mixed. Otherwise, proceed as described in 5.1.2.1.3. 5.1.2.1.3 Examine the surface of the liquid. If there are signs of surface contamination, take samples from the surface as described in 5.1.2.2; otherwise, take samples as described in 5.1.2.3. 5.1.2.2 Surface sampling

47、Take a sample using a suitable ladle. Lower the ladle into the liquid until the rim is just below the surface, so that the surface layer runs into it. Withdraw the ladle just before it fills completely and allow any liquid adhering to the ladle to drain off. If necessary, repeat this operation so th

48、at, when the other selected containers have been sampled in a similar manner, the total volume of sample required for subsequent analysis is obtained. EN 935:2004 (E) 10 5.1.2.3 Bottom sampling Take a sample using an open sampling tube, or a bottom-valve sampling tube, suited to the size of containe

49、r and the viscosity of the liquid. When using an open sampling tube, close it at the top and then lower the bottom end to the bottom of the container. Open the tube and move it rapidly so that the bottom of the tube traverses the bottom of the container before the tube is filled. Close the tube, withdraw it from the container and allow any liquid adhering to the outside of the tube to drain off. When using a bottom-valve sampling tube, close the valve before lowering the tube in
