18、his European Standard (EN 14726:2005) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 132 “Alumin-ium and aluminium alloys”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsemen

19、t, at the latest by March 2006, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by March 2006. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following coun-tries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cypr

EN 14726:2005 (E) 4 Introduction In optical atomi

21、c emission spectral analysis (OES) with excitation by electric spark discharges, (S-OES), a small portion of the sample is thermally atomized through the erosion of an electric spark. In the spark discharge, the aerosol is atomized, partially ionised and excited to emit optical radiation. The charac

22、teristic radiation for each element is used in OES for element detection and for the quantitative determination of the element contents. The test result obtained on a small test portion (mostly less than one milligram per spark spot) of one or more laboratory samples is referred either to a laborato

23、ry sample or to many tons of a melt or a cast product of aluminium or aluminium alloys. Cast structure and segregation interfere with measurement. S-OES is suitable for determining the chemical composition of metal samples as defined in technical specifications. S-OES serves as inspection, test and

24、measuring equipment for alloy compositions to control and inspect the manufacturing and casting processes. For those purposes, laboratory samples are taken from the liquid metal after melting down of the alloying constituents and during casting in different process stages. Besides process inspection

25、, S-OES, within the framework of a chemical-analytical service, facilitates the preparation of a test report which refers to the laboratory sample or to an agreed sample area of that sample. The testing equipment, including software used in the testing laboratories, is subject to change. Therefore,

26、these guidelines describe the common principles. It gives guidance to specific criteria which should be met and the detailed documentation for the laboratory procedures to obtain traceable test results with uncertainty intervals. EN 14726:2005 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard gives guidance on t

27、he criteria and the fundamental operation procedure governing the spark optical emission spectral analysis (S-OES) of metal samples, beginning with sampling, through sample preparation to reporting the test, as well as the requirements of the whole spark source spectrometric procedure which shall be

28、 fulfilled with respect to: observance of the agreed precision and trueness ISO 3534-1, ISO 5725-1 of the analytical results with refer-ence to the agreed sample or sample area; traceability of the analytical results to the international base units mass (kg) and amount of substance (mol); proof of a

29、greement between the spark spectrometric result and the average composition of the supplied metal sample within the given uncertainty ISO 3534-1 of the analytical result; comparability of the test results between different laboratories; as far as possible, a trouble-free operation of the spark spect

30、rometer. These guidelines refer to computer-controlled simultaneously measuring spectrometers for the analysis of solid samples. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this European Standard.
