General test methods and procedures
17、 cit-ed in this standard are compiled in Parts 1, 4, and 5 of ISO 10349.This standard is intended for use by individuals with a working knowledge of analyti-cal techniques, which may not always be the case. Some of the procedures utilizecaustic, toxic, or otherwise hazardous chemicals. Safe laborato
18、ry practice for thehandling of chemicals requires the use of safety glasses or goggles and other protec-tive apparel such as rubber gloves, face masks or aprons where appropriate.Normal precautions required in the performance of any chemical procedure shall beexercised at all times, but care has bee
19、n taken in this standard to provide warningsfor hazardous materials. Hazard warnings designated by a letter enclosed in anglebrackets, , are used as a reminder in those steps detailing handling operationsand are defined in ISO 10349-1. More detailed information regarding hazards, han-dling, and use
20、of these chemicals may be available from the manufacturer.0.2 This standard provides chemical and physical requirements for the suitability of aphotographic-grade chemical. The tests correlate with undesirable photographic ef-fects. Purity requirements are set as low as possible consistent with thes
21、e photo-graphic effects. These criteria are considered the minimum requirements necessaryto assure sufficient purity for use in photographic processing solutions, except that ifthe purity of a commonly available grade of chemical exceeds photographic process-ing requirements and if there is no econo
22、mic penalty in its use, the purity require-ments have been set to take advantage of the availability of the higher qualitymaterial.Every effort has been made to keep the number of requirements to a minimum. Inertimpurities are limited to amounts that will not unduly reduce the assay. All tests arepe
23、rformed on samples “as received“ to reflect the condition of materials furnished foruse. Although the ultimate criterion for suitability of such a chemical is its successfulperformance in an appropriate use test, the shorter, more economical test methodsdescribed in this standard are generally adequ
24、ate.Assay procedures have been included in all cases where a satisfactory method isavailable. An effective assay requirement serves not only as a safeguard of chemicalpurity, but also as a valuable complement to the identity test. Identity tests have beenincluded whenever a possibility exists that a
25、nother chemical or mixture of chemicalscould pass the other tests.All requirements listed in clause 4 are mandatory. The physical appearance of thematerial and any footnotes are for general information only and are not part of the re-quirements.0.3 Efforts have been made to employ tests that are cap
26、able of being run in any nor-mally equipped laboratory and, wherever possible, to avoid tests that require highlyspecialized equipment or techniques. Instrumental methods have been specified onlyas alternative methods or alone in those cases where no other satisfactory method isavailable.Over the pa
27、st few years, great improvements have been made in instrumentation forvarious analyses. Where such techniques have equivalent or greater precision, theymay be used in place of the tests described in this standard. Correlation of such alter-native procedures with the given method is the responsibilit
28、y of the user. In case ofdisagreement in results, the method called for in the specification shall prevail.Where a requirement states “to pass test“, however, alternative methods shall not beused.AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD ANSI/I3A IT4.104-20021 American National Standard for Photography Processing
