10、 This standard makes reference to the following BritishStandard: BS1499, Sampling non-ferrous metals. This method for the gravimetric determination of aluminium in magnesium alloys is the first of a series which will form a complete BritishStandard under the collective title “Methods for the analysi
11、s of magnesium and magnesium alloys” each being published as a separate part. Other methods in the series are as follows: Part2: Iron-photometric method; 1) Part3: Copper-photometric method; 1) Part4: Manganese-photometric-periodate method; 1) Part5: Manganese-photometric-periodate method (low conte
12、nts). 1) The preparation of this series of methods has been authorized by the Non-ferrous Metals Industry Standards Committee as part of a general programme for the standardization of methods for the sampling and analysis of non-ferrous metals. The methods have been found to give reliable and reprod
13、ucible results and, while in some instances they may appear to be lengthy, it should be appreciated that they are primarily intended as “referee” methods to be used in cases of dispute. This method is substantially the same as the corresponding method approved by ISO/TC79 which will be published as
14、ISO R. 1) . 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 itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This documen

16、65 BSI 12-1999 1 Introduction a) Principle. The sample is dissolved in hydrochloric acid and aluminium is precipitated as benzoate in an acetic acid medium containing hydroxyammonium chloride. The precipitate is dissolved and the aluminium reprecipitated by8-hydroxyquinoline in an acetic acid buffer
17、 medium. The precipitate is filtered, washed, dried and weighed. b) Range. The method is suitable for aluminium contents between1.5and12.0 per cent. c) Reproducibility. Experiments have been carried out independently by a number of analysts using this method. The degree of reproducibility that can b
18、e expected is shown by the following analysis of the results obtained: d) Application. The method is not suitable for alloys containing zirconium rare earths or thorium.
