1、Designation: D 5794 95 (Reapproved 2002)Standard Guide forDetermination of Anions in Cathodic Electrocoat Permeatesby Ion Chromatography1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5794; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case
2、 of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide is used for the determination of nitrate anionin electrocoat bath permeate by us
3、e of chemically suppressedand non-suppressed ion chromatography (IC).1.2 Other anions, with the exception of phosphate, may bedetermined in electrocoat bath permeates by use of this guide.1.3 It is the responsibility of the user of this guide toestablish appropriate safety and health practices and d

Significance and Use3.1 It is important to monitor the anion concentrations andanion contaminants in electrocoat baths. Wet chemical methodsare long, t
5、edious, and of questionable accuracy in the ppmrange. Ion chromatography offers a fast, convenient andaccurate alternative. Since IC analysis of electrocoat bathsamples is difficult, the permeates are often analyzed forcontaminants. This guide addresses some important consider-ations for such analys
6、es.4. Apparatus4.1 A wide variety of ion chromatography columns, eluents,and operating parameters are available from commercialsources. The round robin studies conducted in conjunction withthis guides preparation utilized both suppressed and non-suppressed IC systems, acid and base eluents, strong a
7、nd weakbase eluents, and varying gradients and flow rates. All labora-tories utilized a conductivity detector for their analysis.4.2 Any properly maintained commercial IC system capableof separating, detecting, and quantifying anions by conductiv-ity is deemed satisfactory.5. Guidelines for Analysts
8、5.1 Utilize commercially available ANION standards orprepare anion standards from reagent grade chemicals andreagent water Type I (see Specification D 1193).5.2 Sparge all eluent solutions with helium for at least 15min prior to performing an IC analysis.5.3 When necessary, remove residual traces of

Standardsshould be in the same approximate concentration ranges as theanions concentration in the sample. Calibration standardsshould bracket the anions concentration in the samp
