In the past, methods for the chemical analysis of different ty
8、pes of rubber were published, as appropriate, in the “B series” of BS903 “Methods of testing vulcanized rubber” and in BS1673 “Methods for testing raw rubber and unvulcanized compounded rubber”. However, in many cases the methods for the various types of material are very similar. In the work of Tec
9、hnical Committee45, Rubber and rubber products, of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), this has led to the preparation of International Standards for methods for the chemical analysis of rubber of general applicability; in order to facilitate the adoption of these as BritishSta
10、ndards and to simplify the general presentation of methods for the chemical analysis of rubber, it has been decided to publish this new BritishStandard. As further Parts of BS5923 are published, they will replace any corresponding methods in BS903 and BS1673, so that the BS903 “B series” and the app
11、ropriate parts of BS1673 will eventually be withdrawn completely. This Part supersedes section4 of BS903-B13 “Determination of ash and zinc oxide”; the remaining sections of BS903-B13 are superseded by BS5923-1. This Part is based on ISO2454:1976, with the inclusion of some technical and editorial c
12、hanges in the text. The major changes are listed below and are indicated by a vertical line in the margin. The changes in clauses in4, 6.2 and6.3 have been proposed by the United Kingdom as amendments to the ISO text. The method described in BS903-B13 involved titration with EDTA solution but the pr
13、ocedure described in this revision differs substantially. Clause reference Textual change 6.1 In this BritishStandard, a reference to BS5923-1 has been substituted for the reference to ISO247:1978. BS5923-1 is identical with ISO247:1978. 4 In ISO2454:1976 some of the reagents are listed in a differe
14、nt order as follows: 4.11 EDTA (disodium salt) 4.12 Zinc chloride 4.13 Dithizone indicator 4.13 The note in this BritishStandard is not included in ISO2454:1976. 6.2 The instructions in the first paragraph have been extended. In ISO2454:1976, the end of the first paragraph reads:“add2ml of the sulph
15、uric acid(4.4) and ash in the muffle furnace(5.1), maintained at550 25 C. In the second sentence of the second paragraph, the words “in a fume cupboard” have been added after “Evaporate the hydrofluoric acid”. In the fourth sentence of the second paragraph, ISO2454:1976 refers, incorrectly, to the e
16、vaporation of “hydrochloric” acid. 6.3 In ISO2454:1976, the second sentence of the third paragraph begins, incorrectly, with the word “Acidity”.BS5923-2:1980 BSI 12-1999 iii A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are resp
17、onsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi toiv, pages1to4, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been up

This will be indicated in the amendment table on the inside front cover.iv blankBS5923-2:1980 BSI 12-1999 1 1 Scope and field of application This BritishStandard specifies an EDTA titrimetric method for the determination of the zin
19、c content of all rubber products. Lead, magnesium, iron, titanium, antimony, silica, and silicates in the ash do not interfere. The method is not applicable, however, if cobalt is present. 2 References The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on inside back cover. 3 Pri
20、nciple Incineration of a test portion and dissolution of the ash in hydrochloric acid. Extraction of silica by treatment with hydrofluoric and sulphuric acids. Addition of aluminium chloride and aluminium fluoride to precipitate calcium and magnesium as hexafluoroaluminates. Fluoride complexes iron,
21、 titanium and excess aluminium (interference from large amounts of iron is further reduced by addition of2,4-pentanedione). Titration of the zinc with an EDTA (disodium salt) standard volumetric solution in the presence of dithizone as indicator. 4 Reagents During the analysis, use only reagents of
22、recognized analytical grade, and only distilled water or water of equivalent purity.

Place this test portion in one of the platinum crucibles(5.4) and reduce to ash according to method C specified in BS5923-1. Cool the crucible and add approximately
34、50ml of the hydrochloric acid(4.3). Transfer the contents of the crucible to a250ml beaker with approximately50ml of water. Break up any large cakes of ash with a glass stirring rod. If any insoluble residue is present after cooling, proceed in accordance with6.2. If no insoluble material is present
35、, proceed in accordance with6.3. 6.2 Filter the residue through an ashless filter paper. Retain the filtrate. Place the insoluble residue and the filter paper into a second platinum crucible(5.4), add2ml of the sulphuric acid(4.4) and then heat over a gas burner to volatilize the excess sulphuric ac
36、id. Transfer the crucible and its contents to the muffle furnace, maintained at550 25 C, and heat until all the carbon is completely oxidized and a clean ash is obtained. Moisten the residue with5 to10 drops of the sulphuric acid(4.4) and5ml of the hydrofluoric acid solution(4.5). Evaporate the hydr
37、ofluoric acid in a fume cupboard and stop heating as soon as the evolution of white fumes indicates sulphuric acid decomposition. When cool, add an additional5 to10 drops of the sulphuric acid and5ml of the hydrofluoric acid solution. Repeat the evaporation of the hydrofluoric acid and add1ml of the
38、 sulphuric acid and5ml of the hydrofluoric acid solution to the wet residue. Evaporate the hydrofluoric acid and stop heating as soon as white fumes appear. Pour the contents of the crucible carefully into the retained filtrate, wash the crucible with distilled water and add the washings to the filt
39、rate. Proceed according to6.3. 6.3 If necessary, evaporate the solution or filtrate to a volume of approximately50ml. Transfer the cooled solution to a100ml volumetric flask and make up to the mark with distilled water. Select an aliquot portion from the following table according to the expected zin
40、c content and transfer to a250ml conical flask. If necessary, dilute the aliquot portion to25ml, add2ml of the aluminium chloride solution(4.8),5ml of the magnesium chloride solution(4.9), and10ml of the ammonium fluoride solution(4.10). Add ammonium hydroxide solution(4.6) until alkaline to the uni
41、versal indicator paper(4.14). Acidify with approximately1ml of the sulphuric acid(4.4). Bring the solution to the boil, and then cool to room temperature. Add ammonium hydroxide solution(4.6) until just alkaline. Thenadd an additional0.5ml. Add10ml of the buffer solution(4.7),60ml of the acetone(4.1
42、),5ml of the2,4-pentanedione solution(4.2) and5 drops of the dithizone indicator solution(4.12).
