The solid is treated with hydrochlor

38、ic acid solution and the acid insoluble fraction is filtered off. Barium sulfate is precipitated by addition of ammonium sulfate solution and gravimetrically determined. 7.2.4.2 Reagents All reagents shall be of recognised analytical grade and the water used shall conform to grade 3 in accordance wi

39、th EN ISO 3696. 7.2.4.2.1 Ammonium hydroxide solution, NH4OH = 0,9 g/ml. 7.2.4.2.2 Ammonium sulfate solution, (NH4)2SO4100 g/l solution. 7.2.4.2.3 Hydrochloric acid, HCl = 1,18 g/ml. 7.2.4.2.4 Sodium carbonate, Na2CO3.7.2.4.2.5 Sodium carbonate solution, (Na2CO3) 30 g/l solution. 7.2.4.2.6 Methyl re

40、d, 0,5 g/l solution. 7.2.4.3 Apparatus Ordinary laboratory apparatus and glassware together with the following. 7.2.4.3.1 Platinum crucible. 7.2.4.3.2 Electric furnace, capable of being controlled at (850 25) C. 7.2.4.3.3 Porcelain crucible. 7.2.4.3.4 Oven, capable of being controlled at (105 2) C.

41、7.2.4.4 Procedure Weigh in the platinum crucible (7.2.4.3.1), to the nearest 0,1 mg, about 0,5 g of barite previously finely powdered and dried at 105 C (m1). Add about 3 g of sodium carbonate (7.2.4.2.4), mix and heat until the melt is clear. Cool and carefully disintegrate the solid with hot water

42、. Filter and wash thoroughly the crucible and solid with hot sodium carbonate solution (7.2.4.2.5). Transfer the filter paper and the filtered solid to a 250 ml beaker and acidify with hydrochloric acid (7.2.4.2.3). Wash the crucible with few millilitres of hydrochloric acid and add the liquid to th

43、e solution. Boil the solution for 5 min and filter into a 600 ml beaker. Carefully wash the filter and the 250 ml beaker with water. BS EN 12912:2012EN 12912:2012 (E) 9 Add to the filtrate a few drops of methyl red indicator solution (7.2.4.2.6) and ammonium hydroxide solution (7.2.4.2.1) until the

44、colour turns to yellow. Acidify the solution with 3 ml of hydrochloric acid (7.2.4.2.3) and dilute to approximately 300 ml. Heat the solution to boiling and add slowly 50 ml of ammonium sulfate solution (7.2.4.2.2) stirring with a glass rod. Cover the beaker with a watch glass and allow to stand for

45、 at least 4 h at a temperature of about 80 C. Then filter on a close-texture ashless filter paper. Wash the precipitate with boiling water until the chlorides disappear from the filtrate (test with silver nitrate solution). Ignite the porcelain crucible (7.2.4.3.3) in the electric furnace at (850 25

46、) C (7.2.4.3.2) for 1 h. Place the crucible in a desiccator, cool to room temperature and weigh to the nearest 0,1 mg and note the mass m0. Place the filter paper with the precipitate in the ignited and weighed porcelain crucible and dry in an oven. Ignite the paper in air, then ignite for 2 h in th

47、e furnace at (850 25) C. Allow to cool in a desiccator and weigh to the nearest 0,1 mg (m2). 7.2.4.5 Expression of results The barium sulfate content, expressed as a percentage mass fraction, is calculated from the following formula: 100102=mmmX (1) where m0is the mass in grams of the empty ignited

48、porcelain crucible; m2is the mass, in grams of the ignited porcelain crucible plus barium sulfate; m1is the mass, in grams of the test portion. 7.2.5 Acid-soluble material The content of acid-soluble material shall be determined in accordance with EN 12902. 8 Labelling, transportation and storage 8.

49、1 Means of delivery Barite shall be delivered in bags (paper or plastics materials), semi-bulk containers or bulk. In order that the purity of the product is not affected, the means of delivery shall not have been used previously for any different product or it shall have been specially cleaned and prepared before use. 8.2 Labelling according to the EU legislation 3)Barite is not listed within Annex VI of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 at the date of publication of this European Standard. 3)
