This will also affect the equivalent ENS. 3 Definition For the purposes of EN 50267-2-1 the following defuiition applies. Th

28、e definition is taken from EN 60695-4. 3.1 combustion exothermic reaction of a substance with an oxidizer with emission of effluent, generally accompanied by flames and/or glowing and/or emission of smoke 4 Test apparatus The apparatus used shall be that specified in EN 50267-1, 5 Procedure 5.1 Gene

29、ral principle The material under test is heated in a stream of dry air and the gases absorbed in O, 1 M sodium hydroxide solution contained in wash bottles. Each wash bottle shall contain at least 220 ml of O, 1 M sodium hydroxide solution. The amount of halogen acid is then determined by acidifying

30、 the solution with nitric acid adding a measured volume of O, 1 M silver nitrate solution and back titrating the excess with O, I M ammonium thiocyanate using ferric ammonium sulfate as the indicator, or any other equivalent analytical method having at least the same accuracy. Duplicate tests shall

31、be carried out on the sample of material, and a blank determination shall be carried out without the sample.

The individual values shall not vary by more than I10 % from the mean. 5.2 Samples A sample shall consist of 500 mg to 1 O00 mg of the materia

33、l to be tested. Each sample shall be taken fiom samples representative of the material. The sample shall be cut into small pieces. 5.3 Conditioning of the samples The samples shall be stored for at least 16 h at a temperature of (23 i 2) OC and a relative humidity of (50 f 5) %. 5.4 Combustion The s

34、ample, which shall be weighed after conditioning to an accuracy of 0,l mg, shall be put into a combustion boat. The sample shall be eveniy distributed on the bottom of the boat. The boat shall then be inserted into the combustion tube placed in the tube furnace. The flow rate of air shall be adjuste

35、d by means of a needle valve at (0,015 7d) bh- i 10 % and shall be kept constant during the test. The sample shall be heated at an approximately uniform heating rate over a period of (40 f 5) min in order to raise the sample temperature to (800 f 10) OC, after which it shall be maintained at that te

36、mperature for (20 f i) min. The heating rate and sample temperature shall be checked by an appropriate method. NOTE An example of a method of confirming the heating rate and sample temperature is as follows. Carry out, as a pre-test qualification procedure, a blank test with the flow rate of air as

37、specified above, with a thermocouple, or other suitable temperature measuring device (suitably protected against corrosion), placed at the sample point in the empty combustion boat. Determine from this test a reproducible heating regime which will ensure that the required sample heating rate and tem

38、perature will be achieved during an actual test. The bottles shall be disconnected, and the contents washed into a 1 O00 ml volumetric flask. Using distilled or demineralised waters, the bottles, the connecting links and end of the combustion tube (after cooling) and the silica plug, if any, shall a

39、lso be washed into the flask, and the contents made up to 1 O00 ml. After removing the combustion boat, the tube shall be cleaned throughout its length by calcination at 950 OC. 6 Determination of halogen acid content I After cooling to ambient temperature, 200 ml of the solution shall be measured i

40、nto a flask using either a pipette or burette and followed successively by 4 ml of concentrated nitric acid, 20 ml of O, 1 M silver nitrate and 3 ml of nitrobenzene”. The contents shall be well shaken to achieve agglomeration and coating of the silver halide. Hereafter, 1 ml of a 40 % aqueous soluti

41、on of femc ammonium sulfate containing a few drops of 6 M nitric acid shall be added, and the whole mixed together. The solution shall then be titrated with O, 1 M ammonium thiocyanate solution using magnetic stirring. The end-point shall be the red end-point for the titration. ” Using this method,

42、halogni acids evolved, except hydrofluoric acid, will be expressed as hydrochloric acid. 2, WARNING NOTE: Nitrobenzene is regarded as highly toxic. Toluene or so-amyl alcohol or diethyl ether are being assessed as a safer alternative. and users are invitai to comment on their suitability. 0 BSI 09-
