10、errous metals. This method for the determination of phosphorus is one of a series of methods for the analysis of copper alloys, which will form a complete British Standard issued in several parts. The methods are intended primarily for the analysis of the copper alloys included in BS1400, “Copper al
11、loy ingots and castings”, and those being included in the series of schedules of wrought copper and copper alloys, BS2870 to BS2875, of which BS2871 has already been published, and the remainder are in course of preparation. The methods have been found to give reliable and reproducible results and,
12、while in some instances they may appear to be lengthy, it should be realized that they are put forward as referee methods to be used in cases of dispute. In the preparation of the calibration graphs an attempt has been made to define concentrations, but because these are linked with the particular i
13、nstrument used for determining optical density they should be used only as a guide. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itse

The sample is dissolved in a mixture of nitric and hydrochloric acids, and phosphorus is converted into orthophosphoric acid. Phosphovanadomolybdic acid is subsequently formed and the yellow colour is measured phot
16、ometrically. b) Range. Up to1.20per cent phosphorus. c) Reproducibility. Experiments have been carried out independently by a number of analysts using the method recommended in this standard. The degree of reproducibility that can be expected is shown by the following analysis of the results obtaine
17、d: d) Application. The method is applicable to all types of copper alloys provided a suitable compensating solution is used when elements are present which would otherwise interfere in the optical density determination. The percentage of arsenic normally present in the specified alloys does not inte

If a filter photometer is used the filter combination should conform as closely as possible to the above wave-le

Solutions required All reagents shall be of the highest purity obtainable, and distilled water shall be used throughout. Solutions shall be freshly prepared and, where necessary, filtered. Standard

Use a further beaker in each cas

Make additions of the standard potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution as indicated in
26、the table (Note1). Add1ml of hydrogen peroxide (3per cent) and boil gently for5minutes. Avoid vigorous or prolonged boiling, since excessive loss of acid will affect the subsequent colour development. Cool slightly and add10.0ml of ammonium vanadate solution(0.25per cent). Cool to room temperature a
27、nd add10.0ml of ammonium molybdate solution (10per cent). Transfer to a100ml graduated flask, dilute to the mark and mix well. Allow to stand for5minutes at20 1 C, then measure the optical densities using conditions as specified under “Apparatus” (seealso Note2). Use4cm cells for Graph1a and1cm cell
28、s for Graph2a. Use the blank solution in the compensating cell. ii) Preparation of Graphs 1b and 2b Add45ml of the nitric-hydrochloric acid mixture to each beaker, cover and heat gently until the copper has dissolved. Cool and dilute to100ml in a graduated flask. Transfer10.0ml of each solution (equ
29、ivalent to0.2g sample) separately to150ml beakers. Make additions of the standard potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution as indicated in the table (Note1).

38、 calibration graph. NOTE 1These recommended volumes should be found suitable, using the type of instrument referred to under “Apparatus”. Preparation of these graphs will depend on the type of instrument used to determine optical density and it may therefore be necessary to reduce these volumes, the
39、 weight of copper and the weight of sample subsequently used. The excess of nitro-hydrochloric acid mixture, however, must be maintained throughout. NOTE 2In the examination of sample solutions optical densities should preferably be between0.15and0.85, although this range may be extended slightly in
