Significance and Use3.1 This collection of test methods is used by pigmentproducers and paint manufacturers for process control, productacceptance, and research and development.4. Treatment of Sample4.1 Grind dry pigments, if lumpy or not finely ground, to afine powder and thorou
7、ghly mix (Note 1). Large samples maybe thoroughly mixed and a representative portion taken andpowdered if lumpy or not finely ground. In all cases thoroughlymix the sample before taking portions for analysis. Preserve allsamples in dry, dark, airtight and completely filled bottles orcontainers to pr
8、event oxidation. Some commercial copperoxides appear to segregate or oxidize rather easily. Therefore,the thorough mixing of the sample to ensure homogeneity andthe rapid handling of the sample, when exposed to light and air,are extremely important factors in obtaining accurate resultsNOTE 1It is ve
9、ry important that the sample be thoroughly mixed.Some samples of cuprous oxide are not homogeneous so are likely to givetrouble when an attempt is made to obtain concordant results. By placinga few grams of a sample on a sheet of white paper and drawing it out witha spatula, it is frequently found t
10、hat the sample contains coarse particlesof black scale, along with small balls of bright red cuprous oxide. Thus,it may be necessary to pass the pigment through a No. 60 (250-m) sieve,break up any lumps of ground pigment by gentle pressure, and grind anycoarse particles failing to pass through the s
11、ieve. Since oxidation of slightor even considerable magnitude may take place, these operations shouldbe performed quickly, avoiding prolonged grinding and exposure to lightand air.5.

Reagents8.1 Ceric Ammonium Nitrate, Standard Solution (0.1 N)Mix 54.826 g of ceric ammonium nitrate (Ce(NH4)2(NO3)6)(either reagent grade or reference standard purity) with 56 mLof sulfuric acid (H2SO4) (1+1). Dissolve the salt and acid inwate

Standardizethis solution against analyzed bright copper foil that has beenfreed from all oxide coating.8.2 Ferric Chloride SolutionDissolve 75 g of ferric chlo-ride (FeCI36H2O) in a mixture of 150 mL of hydrochloricacid (HCl) (sp gr 1.19) and 400 mL of
24、 distilled water. Add 5mL of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) (30 %) and boil to removethe excess.8.3 Ferrous Ammonium Sulfate, Standard Solution (0.03N)Dissolve 12 g of ferrous ammonium sulfate(Fe(NH4)2(SO4)26H2O) in 200 to 300 mL of water and add40 mL of H2SO4(sp gr 1.84), while stirring constantly. Dilut

The solution should berestandardized frequently against 0.1 N ceric ammonium ni-trate solution.8.4 Orthophenanthroline Indicator Solution (0.5 % inwater)Orthophenanthroline ferrous complex (ferroin)
26、shallbe used as the indicator.9. Procedure9.1 Weigh accurately (Note 2) 0.15 g of the sample andplace in a 250-mL, vented, glass-stoppered Erlenmeyer flaskpreviously filled with carbon dioxide (CO2) or other inert gas.Add a few small glass beads and 10 mLof FeCI3solution. Heatgently for 15 min, stir
27、ring occasionally and maintaining at alltimes an atmosphere of CO2or other inert gas.NOTE 2The use of a 0.4-mL micro beaker for weighing the specimenis advised. The beaker is weighed first and the sample introduced into thebeaker, the correct weight obtained, and the entire beaker and its contentsdr
28、opped into the flask. This eliminates errors in weighing caused bybrushing the sample from glass balance pans.9.2 After the specimen has been dissolved, cool, add 50 mLof distilled water, and titrate at once with 0.1 N ceric ammo-nium nitrate solution until near the end point. Add 2 drops oforthophe

While swirling the flask, slowly add 100 mLof the extraction soluti
35、on.11.3 After the addition of the extraction solution, swirl theflask vigorously for 5 min, adding lumps of dry ice (solidcarbon dioxide) (Note 3) continuously during this time to lowerthe temperature of the solution to approximately 10C. Breakup any lumps in the solution with a glass rod or policem
36、an.11.4 Filter off the metallic copper-cupric oxide residueusing a 125-mm close-texture paper, a filter cone to support thepaper, and suction (Note 4). Continue the addition of dry ice tothe flask and filter paper during the filtration to keep thesolution cold. Wash the flask and filter paper with 1
37、50 to 200mL of denatured alcohol, continuing the use of suction.NOTE 3During the 5-min swirling period approximately 25 to 30 g ofdry ice is added in approximately 5-g portions. The initial lumps of dry icevolatilize rapidly due to the temperature of the solution.Approximately 15g of dry ice is adde
38、d in the first 2 min with a subsequent temperature dropto 0C. The remaining 15 g volatilizes more slowly and gradually lowersthe temperature to the vicinity of 10C. These directions are not critical,but merely serve as a guide. The solution must be kept very cold in orderto obtain correct and reprod
39、ucible results. During the filtration period,additions of dry ice to the flask should be continued to keep the solutioncold until all of the extraction solution has been filtered.NOTE 4In the great majority of cases, the metallic copper-cupricoxide residue is completely retained by the use of a suit
40、able close-texturefilter paper. The filtration is rapid and can be readily completed in 5 minwith proper suction. The filtrate should be carefully examined for thepresence of finely divided particles of copper. In the event that extremelyfinely divided particles of copper are present and pass throug
41、h the filterpaper, as evidenced by the presence in the filtrate of a reddish color, whichmay be transient, the following method of filtration should be used: Placea 25-mm diameter, beveled-edge, perforated porcelain filter disk in a 60,75-mm diameter glass funnel. Using suction, prepare an asbestos
42、filter padon the porcelain disk of sufficient thickness and retentiveness to hold thefinely divided residue. Wash the asbestos pad several times with denaturedalcohol to remove all water from the pad. Filter the metallic copper-cupricoxide residue on this asbestos pad with the suction on at the star

Keep the solution cold by the addition of dry ice and proceedwith washing the residue, transferring it to the original extraction flask,and the subsequent titration as directed in Section 11.11.5 Transfer the entire residue, filter paper, and beads to theoriginal extraction flask and
44、 dissolve the residue in 25 mL ofFeCl3solution, keeping an atmosphere of CO2above thesample by addition of dry ice. Heat on a steam bath to dissolvethe copper. Add 50 mL of distilled water and 3 drops oforthophenanthroline indicator solution. Titrate with 0.1 N cericammonium nitrate solution until t
