22、the determination of the copper content of unalloyed copper materials with a copper content higher than 99,80 % (mass fraction) in the form of castings, wrought and unwrought products. Silver, if present, is co-deposited and is reported as copper. Approximately one-half of any selenium and tellurium

23、 present will co-deposit. Bismuth, if present, also interferes. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, th

24、e latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

25、hemical analysis Part 2: Sampling of wrought products and castings. 3 Principle Dissolution of a test portion in a nitric and sulphuric acid mixture. Electrolytic deposition of the copper on a platinum cathode of known weight with subsequent weighing of the cathode together with the electrodeposited

26、 copper. Determination of residual copper in the spent electrolyte by atomic absorption spectrometry. 4 Reagents During the analysis use only reagents of recognised analytical grade and only distilled water or water of equivalent purity. 4.1 Sulphuric acid, H2SO4( = 1,84 g/ml) 4.2 Nitric acid, HNO3(

27、 = 1,40 g/ml) 4.3 Sulphuric acid-nitric acid mixture While stirring, slowly add 300 ml of sulphuric acid (4.1) to 750 ml of water. Cool to ambient temperature. While stirring, cautiously add 210 ml of nitric acid (4.2). 4.4 Sulphamic acid, H(NH2)SO34.5 Sulphamic acid solution, 100 g/l H(NH2)SO3Disso

28、lve 10 g of sulphamic acid (4.4) in water and dilute to 100 ml. Prepare freshly before using. 4.6 Alcohol Ethanol: 95 % 0,2 %, methanol: min. 99,9 %, other alcohols: higher than 99,9 %.

If a rectifier is to be used, an additional buffer battery is recommended. 5.2 Electrolysis equipment 5.2.1 Platinum cathode, Winkler type1

30、), made preferably from gauze containing approximately 400 meshes per square centimetre, woven from wire of diameter approximately 0,2 mm. The cathode shall be stiffened by doubling the gauze for about 3 mm at the top and the bottom of the cylinder or by reinforcing the gauze at the top and bottom w

31、ith a platinum band or ring. The diameter of the cylinder shall be 30 mm to 50 mm and the height 40 mm to 60 mm. The stem shall be made from a platinum alloy wire such as platinum-iridium, platinum-rhodium or platinum-ruthenium, having a diameter of approximately 1,3 mm, flattened and welded the ent

32、ire length of the gauze. The overall height of the cathode shall be approximately 130 mm. The cathode shall be sandblasted. 5.2.2 Spiral anode, made of platinum alloy wire of minimum diameter 1 mm, formed into a spiral of seven turns, having a height of approximately 50 mm and a diameter of 12 mm, t

33、he overall height being approximately 130 mm. The spiral section shall be sandblasted. 6 Sampling Sampling shall be carried out in accordance with ISO 1811-1 or ISO 1811-2, as appropriate. Test samples shall be in the form of fine drillings, chips or millings with a maximum thickness of 0,5 mm. 7 Pr

34、ocedure 7.1 Test portion Weigh (5,0 0,001) g of the test sample. 7.2 Determination 7.2.1 Transfer the test portion (7.1) to a 400 ml tall-form beaker. Add 45 ml of the sulphuric acid-nitric acid mixture (4.3) by small portions and then cover with a watch glass. Cool if required to prevent the reacti

35、on from becoming violent. When the reaction has subsided, heat moderately (80 C to 90 C) until dissolution is complete. Continue heating at approximately 90 C, without boiling, to completely expel the oxides of nitrogen (more than 1 h may be necessary). Cool slightly and carefully wash down the watc

36、h glass and the sides of the beaker with water. Add 10 ml of the sulphamic acid solution (4.5), stir and dilute to 175 ml to 200 ml. 7.2.2 Weigh the cathode (5.2.1) to the nearest 0,1 mg. 7.2.3 Position the electrodes (5.2.1 and 5.2.2) in the solution and add water so that the gauze is completely im

37、mersed. Cover the beaker with two halves of a watch glass, one of which has two indentations through which the electrode stems may pass. Electrolyze at a current of about 1 A to 3 A, slowly stirring the electrolyte by a magnetic stirrer, avoiding turbulence (see Note). When the solution becomes colo

38、urless, wash the cover, the electrode stem and the sides of the beaker. Add 10 ml of sulphamic acid solution (4.5) and continue the electrolysis until deposition is essentially complete, as indicated by failure to plate on a new surface of the cathode stem, when the level of the solution is raised.

39、NOTE When a current of 1 A to 3 A is used, the electrolysis requires less than 10 h. Avoid extended electrolysis times. 1)Platinum cathodes formed from plain or perforated sheets may also be used.Copyright European Committee for Standardization Provided by IHS under license with CENNot for ResaleNo

Immediately wash successively in two baths of water and two baths

41、 of ethanol, methanol or other alcohols (4.6). Dry at 110 C for 3 min to 5 min and cool to ambient temperature in a desiccator. Determine the mass of the metallic copper deposited. Reserve the spent electrolyte. 7.2.5 Determine the residual copper in the spent electrolyte by a convenient spectrometr

42、ic technique such as atomic absorption spectrometry or inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. The flame atomic absorption spectrometry method is described in the Annex A. 8 Expression of results Calculate the copper mass fraction, in percent (%), using Formula (1): wCu= 100)(0321+

43、mmmm(1) where: wCuis the copper mass fraction in per cent (%); m0is the mass of the test portion (7.1), in grams (g); m1is the mass of the cathode plus the electrodeposited copper, in grams (g); m2is the mass of the cathode (5.2.1), in grams (g); m3is the mass of residual copper found in the spent e

44、lectrolyte (Annex A), in grams (g). 9 Precision Twelve laboratories co-operated in testing this method and obtained the results summarised in Table 1. Table 1 Statistical information Level Reference value % Found % Repeatability r Reproducibility R 1 99,89 99,837 0,074 0,106 2 99,99 99,988 0,013 0,0

45、32 NOTE Taking into account the narrowness of the scope (99,80 % to 100 %) and the discrepancy in the relation between the level of content and the r and R levels (r and R for the lowest level of content are higher than those for the highest level), the lg relationship between copper mass fraction (

46、wCu) and r and R is irrelevant. Therefore, it is suitable to take 0,074 % and 0,106 % as the representative values for r and R respectively, for the whole scope of the method.
