1、Designation: C 927 80 (Reapproved 2009)Standard Test Method forLead and Cadmium Extracted from the Lip and Rim Area ofGlass Tumblers Externally Decorated with Ceramic GlassEnamels1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 927; the number immediately following the designation indicates th

Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of lead
3、andcadmium extracted by acetic acid from the lip and rim area ofglassware used for drinking and which is exteriorly decoratedwith ceramic glass enamels. The procedure of extraction maybe expected to accelerate the release of lead and cadmium fromthe decorated area and to serve, therefore, as a sever

This test method is specific for lead andcadmium.NOTE 1For additional information see Test Method C 738.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.

8、 Summary of Test Method4.1 Lead and cadmium are extracted from the lip and rimarea of the article under test by leaching with a 4 % acetic acidsolution at 20 to 24C (68 to 75F) for 24 h and are measuredby atomic absorption spectrophotometry using specific hollowcathode or electrodeless discharge lam
9、ps for lead and cadmiumrespectively. Results are reported as micrograms per millilitre(ppm) extracted relative to the internal volume of the glassarticle.5. Significance and Use5.1 The heavy metals, lead and cadmium, are known tocause serious health effects in man if consumed in excess. It is,theref
10、ore, important to measure the amount that may beextracted from an area of the glass drinking vessel in contactwith the lip. Even though the amount of lead and cadmiumextracted by this test method is in no way representative of theamount of the metals extracted by actual lip contact, therelative magn
11、itude of metals extracted from one test specimenin relation to another test specimen provides an effective toolfor discrimination.6. Interferences6.1 Since specific hollow cathode lamps or electrodelessdischarge lamps for lead and cadmium are used, there are nointerferences.7. Apparatus7.1 Atomic Ab

26、dure11.1 Preparation of SampleTake six identical units andcleanse each with a detergent rinse. Then rinse with tap waterfollowed by distilled water followed by air drying. Mark eachunit 7 mm below the rim. Record the internal volume of eacharticle in millilitres by filling from a graduated cylinder
27、toapproximately 6 to 7 mm (14 in.) of overflowing. Mark eacharticle, in a nondecorated area (if possible), 20 mm below therim on the outside. Invert the article in an appropriate labora-tory glassware container whose diameter is a minimum of 1.25times and a maximum of 2.0 times the diameter of the t
28、estspecimen at the rim. Carefully add 4 % acetic acid leachingsolution from a graduated cylinder to the 20-mm mark. Recordthe volume of solution used. Cover the glassware containers, ifpossible, to prevent evaporation and to protect them fromcontamination. Let stand for 24 h at room temperature (20
29、to24C) in the dark. Remove the article after the 24-h leachingperiod and determine the lead and cadmium by atomic absorp-tion. Record the lead and cadmium found in micrograms permillilitre.NOTE 2The possibility of a significant amount of evaporation exists.The analyst should determine whether the ac
30、etic acid leaching is notice-ably below the 20-mm mark before removing the article. If it is, sufficientacetic acid solution should be added to restore the leaching solution to the20-mm mark.11.2 Determination of LeadSet the instrument (7.1) formaximum signal at 283.3 nm using the lead hollow cathod
