12、tion for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established
13、has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. In
14、ternational Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publi
15、cation as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent r
16、ights. ISO 16918-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17, Steel, Subcommittee SC 1, Methods of determination of chemical composition.

18、pectrometric method Part 1: Determination of tin, antimony, cerium, lead and bismuth 1 Scope This part of ISO 16918 specifies a method for analysing steel and iron for the trace element determinations of Sn, Sb, Ce, Pb and Bi using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The method is
19、 applicable for trace elements in the mass fraction ranges (g/g) as follows: Sn: 5 g/g to 200 g/g; Sb: 1 g/g to 200 g/g; Ce: 10 g/g to 1 000 g/g; Pb: 0,5 g/g to 100 g/g; Bi: from 0,3 g/g to 30 g/g. Interferences in the determination of trace elements using ICP-MS are listed in Annex B. 2 Normative r

21、lume pipettes ISO 1042, Laboratory glassware One-mark volumetric flasks ISO 14284, Steel and iron Sampling and preparation of samples for the determination of chemical composition 3 Principle A test portion is dissolved in an acid-mixture of hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid using
22、 either a microwave-assisted system or a traditional hot plate. Diluted wet-digested samples are introduced into an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS), via a peristaltic pump. Simultaneous measurements of the intensities of elements with atomic mass units of concern (mass spectra)
23、 are carried out using ICP-MS techniques. Calibration blank and calibration solutions are matrix-matched with the major elements of steel, and mineral acids are used for wet-digestion. Internal standards are used throughout in order to compensate for any instrument drift. ISO 16918-1:2009(E) 2 ISO 2
