21、 by February 2006. This European Standard supersedes ENV 12497:1998. With regard to ENV 12497:1998 the following changes have been made: a) implementation in a European Standard; b) addition of the clause “Precision“; c) editorial updating. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the nati

EN 12497:2005 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard is one in a series of standards for the determination of heavy metals in an aqueous extract of paper and paperboard intended for contact with food. This European Standard spe
24、cifies the test method for the determination of mercury in an aqueous extract. It is applicable to paper and board with extractable mercury content exceeding 0,06 mg per kg. NOTE 1 The above limit of determination is 5 times below the actual limit existing today or proposed in Europe. NOTE 2 Mercury
25、 content levels below 0,06 mg per kg can be measured by this European Standard, if very sensitive equipment is available and if all other laboratory conditions fulfil the requirements for trace element analysis. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the appl
26、ication of this European Standard. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

Store the solutions in high-density polyethylene/polypropylene bottles. 4.2 Nitric acid (HNO3), 65 % (d = 1,42) 4.2.1 Nitric acid (4.2), diluted 1 : 1 (V/V) with water 4.2.2 Nitric aci
29、d (4.2), diluted to 1,5 % (V/V) with water 4.3 Potassium permanganate (KMnO4), 5 % aqueous solution (m/V) NOTE Potassium permanganate solution is used to prepare the mercury stock solution. It is not needed if a commercially available standard solution is used (see 4.4). 4.4 Mercury, stock solution,
30、 1000 mg/l Warning: Mercury is toxic. EN 12497:2005 (E) 5 Dissolve 1,080 g of mercury(II)oxide (HgO) in the minimum volume of nitric acid (4.2.1). Add 0,2 ml of potassium permanganate solution (4.3) and make up to 1000 ml with water. NOTE Commercially available standard solutions can be used if pref
31、erred. 4.5 Sulphuric acid (H2SO4), (d = 1,84) 4.6 Potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7), 50 g/l in sulphuric acid solution Warning: Potassium dichromate is carcinogenic. Dissolve 5 g of potassium dichromate in 80 ml of water. Add with caution 5 ml of sulphuric acid (4.5) and dilute with water to 100 ml. 4.
32、7 Hydroxylammonium chloride (HONH3Cl), 20 g/l aqueous solution Dissolve 5 g of hydroxylammonium chloride in 250 ml of water. 4.8 Reducing solutions 4.8.1 Tin (II) chloride (SnCl2 2H2O), 50 g/l in 10 % hydroxhloric acid (4.9.1) 4.8.2 Sodium tetrahydroborate (NaBH4), 0,2 g/l in 0,05 % sodium hydroxide
33、 solution (4.10) NOTE Either tin chloride or sodium tetrahydroborate should be used depending on the type of spectrometer. It is recommended to follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the instrument. 4.9 Hydrochloric acid (HCl), 36 % (d = 1,19) 4.9.1 Hydrochloric acid (4.9) (HCl), di
34、luted 10 % (V/V) NOTE Hydrochloric acid is used only together with tin (II) chloride (see 4.8.1 and 7.3.1). 4.10 Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), 0,05 % aqueous solution (m/V) NOTE Sodium hydroxide solution is used only together with sodium tetrahydroborate (see 4.8.2 and 7.3.1). 5 Apparatus 5.1 General All
35、 flasks, pipettes etc. have to be washed with nitric acid before use and stored in dilute nitric acid (4.2.2) until required. Rinse with demineralized water before use. 5.2 General laboratory equipment 5.3 Volumetric flasks, 100 ml 5.4 Analytical balance, accuracy 0,1 mg 5.5 Pipettes from 100 l to 1
36、0 ml, glass or plastics, (high density polyethylene/polypropylene) EN 12497:2005 (E) 6 5.6 Atomic absorption spectrometer with an appropriate detection system and sensitivity 6 Preparation of sample Prepare a cold water or a hot water extract from the paper or board using the test methods described
37、in EN 645 or EN 647 respectively. Carry out two parallel extractions. Stabilize the extract by adding nitric acid (4.2) in the ratio of 3,5 ml per 100 ml of extract. Store the extract in glass bottles and analyze as soon as possible because the extract is not stable. Decrease of concentration within
38、 two weeks is observed. Add potassium dichromate solution (4.6) to a content of approximately 10 mg of potassium dichromate per 100 ml of extract. NOTE Organic mercury compounds will not respond to the flameless technique unless they are decomposed into mercury(II)ions. Potassium dichromate oxidizes
39、 these compounds. 7 Procedure 7.1 General Absorb the exhaust from the spectrometer in a suitable mercury absorbent. The following solution is suitable: Iodide 2,5 g; Potassium iodide 30 g; Make up to 100 ml with water. 7.2 Preparation of reference solution Prepare the reference solution daily. Dilut
40、e the stock solution (4.4) with nitric acid (4.2.2) to the appropriate concentration. A concentration of 10,0 g/l is usually appropriate. 7.3 Determination of mercury 7.3.1 General Carry out at least two parallel determinations from each stabilized extract (see Clause 6). Add 4 ml of hydroxyl ammoni
41、um chloride solution (4.7) per 100 ml of extract to inactivate the surplus of potassium dichromate. Follow the instructions given by the manufacturer of the spectrometer in order to reduce the mercury (II) ions to mercury. The reducing agent to be used is either tin (I)chloride (4.8.1) or sodium tet
42、rahydroborate (4.8.2), and the appropriate amount is specified in the instructions. The details of the measurement depends on the type of spectrometer. Follow the instructions and record the mercury peak. EN 12497:2005 (E) 7 7.3.2 Standard additions The matrix of some samples is such that it is impo
43、ssible to record the mercury peak. In such a case the standard addition method may be useful. The following is a guide to the application of standard additions: stabilized extract 50 ml; stabilized extract 50 ml + (M) mg mercury; stabilized extract 50 ml + (2M) mg mercury. (M) represents a known mas
44、s of mercury added by using a suitable volume of the mercury stock solution (4.4) and (2M) represents double this volume. The masses selected shall give clear readings on the instrument. Follow the further instructions provided in 7.3.1 7.4 Determination of blank value Submit the water and reagents
45、used for the extraction to the test procedure to provide a blank value to be deducted from the extract value. NOTE Although not deprecated, the extract should only be supplied to the laboratory together with the water used for the extraction. Without this, no blank can be determined and therefore no
46、t deducted from the extract value. If a partial blank is determined this should be reported. 8 Expression of results Calculate the results with a computer or graphically. Take the blank value into consideration in the evaluation. Express the results in mg/kg or mg/dm of paper. Calculate the mercury
47、content of the sample (Cmsee formula (1), Cssee formula (2) as follows: 1000110010010m=fGVCC (1) 1001100001000sbGVCC = (2) where: Cm amount of mercury soluble of the sample in mg/kg; Csamount of mercury soluble of the sample in mg/dm2; C concentration of mercury read from the calibration graph, in g
48、/l; V0total volume of extract, in ml; b grammage, in g/m2; f moisture content of the sample, in %; G mass of the sample taken under the same condition as grammage, in g. NOTE 1 The extractable mercury content of the original paper or board can be calculated if data are available. EN 12497:2005 (E) 8
49、 NOTE 2 Trace element determinations are sensitive to a number of sources of error. It is, therefore, recommended to check the performance of the system by running standard reference materials. Special attention should be paid to factors such as high blank levels caused by impure reagents or modifiers, contamination during handling of the solutions, adsorption on the walls of vessels, inadequate background correction or unmatched acid concentrations of sample and calibration so
