It is identical with ISO7527:1985 “Nickel, ferronic
9、kel, and nickel alloysDetermination of sulfur contentIodimetric titration method after induction furnace combustion” published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). In1991 the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) accepted ISO7527:1985 as European Standard EN27527:1991
10、without any modifications. At present this British Standard consists of nine Parts all concerned with analysis of nickel, ferronickel and nickel alloys. Further International Standards are in preparation on sampling and analysis of nickel, ferronickel and nickel alloys and, when available, these wil
11、l be published as further Parts of this BritishStandard. Terminology and conventions. The text of the International Standard has been approved as suitable for publication as a British Standard without deviation. Some terminology and certain conventions are not identical with those used in British St
12、andards; attention is drawn especially to the following. The comma has been used as a decimal marker. In British Standards it is current practice to use a full point on the baseline as the decimal marker. Wherever the words “International Standard” appear, referring to this standard, they should be
13、read as “Part of BS6783”. In British Standards it is current practice to use the symbol “L” for litre (andinits submultiples) rather than “l” and to use the spelling “sulphur”, etc., instead of sulfur, etc. The Technical Committee has reviewed the provisions of ISO385-1 and ISO648, to which referenc
14、e is made in the text, and has decided that they are acceptable for use in conjunction with this standard. ISO385-1 is related to BS846:1985 “Specification for burettes” and ISO648 is related to BS1583:1986 “Specification for one-mark pipettes”. A British Standard does not purport to include all the
15、 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. Cross-references International Standards Corresponding British Standards ISO1042:1983 BS1792:19

28、equency induction furnace in the presence of fluxes and accelerators. Absorption of the sulfur dioxide formed in an acidified starch-iodide solution and continuous titration with potassium iodate standard volumetric solution. 4 Reagents and materials During the analysis, unless otherwise stated, use
29、 only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only distilled water or water of equivalent purity. 4.1 Oxygen (O 2 ),99,5% (m/m) minimum. 4.2 Ascarite or soda lime,0,7 to1,2 mm(14 to22 mesh). 4.3 Magnesium perchlorate Mg(ClO 4 ) 2 ,0,7 to1,2mm (14 to22 mesh). 4.4 Glass-wool 4.5 Crucibles and lids
30、 4.5.1 Ceramic crucibles shall be of precise dimensions so that the sample is positioned correctly in the induction coil of the furnace (see9.1). 4.5.2 Pre-ignite the crucibles in air or oxygen in a furnace for not less than1h at1100 C and store in a desiccator or closed container. A resistance furn
31、ace with a combustion tube through which a flow of oxygen passes may be used. Crucible lids, used to help retain the solid oxidation products in the hot zone, are pre-ignited in a similar manner. 4.6 Fluxes: Low sulfur tin, copper plus tin, copper or vanadium pentoxide (see9.2). 4.7 Accelerators: Lo
32、w sulfur copper, iron, tungsten or nickel (see9.2). 4.8 Nickel, low sulfur of known value 0,001% (m/m). 4.9 Standard reference steel, containing0,1 to0,2%(m/m) sulfur. 4.10 Hydrochloric acid, 20 =1,19g/ml, diluted1+99. 4.11 Starch-iodide, solution. Transfer9g of soluble starch to a50ml beaker, add5
33、to10ml of water and stir until a smooth paste is obtained. Pour the mixture slowly into500ml of boiling water. Cool, add15g of potassium iodide and stir until it is dissolved. Dilute to1litre with water and mix. 4.12 Potassium iodate, standard volumetric solution. Dissolve exactly0,2225g of potassiu
34、m iodate in900ml of water containing1g of sodium hydroxide. Transfer to a1000ml one-mark volumetric flask. Make up to the mark with water and mix. 1ml of this standard volumetric solution is equivalent to0,1mg S. 4.13 Potassium iodate, standard volumetric solution. Transfer200ml of potassium iodate
35、solution(4.12) to a1000ml one-mark volumetric flask. Make up to the mark with water and mix. 1ml of this standard volumetric solution is equivalent to0,02mg S. NOTEThe sulfur equivalents of4.12 and4.13 are based on the complete conversion and recovery of sulfur as sulfur dioxide. Well-established st
36、andards of known sulfur content are used for solution standardization. 5 Apparatus 5.1 The apparatus required for combustion in a high frequency induction furnace and titration of the evolved sulfur dioxide may be obtained commercially from a number of manufacturers. Follow the manufacturers instruc
37、tions for the operation of the equipment (see9.3).EN27527:1991 4 BSI 11-1999 5.2 Burettes, of capacity50ml, graduated in divisions of0,1ml; and of capacity10ml, graduatedin divisions of0,02ml, in accordance with ISO385-1, class A. 5.3 Pipettes, in accordance with ISO648, class A. 5.4 Volumetric flas
38、ks, in accordance with ISO1042, class A. 6 Sampling and samples 6.1 Sampling and preparation of the laboratory sample shall be carried out by normal agreed procedures or, in case of dispute, by the relevant International Standard. 6.2 The laboratory sample normally is in the form of a powder, granul
39、es, millings or drillings and no further preparation of the sample is necessary. 6.3 If it is suspected that the laboratory sample is contaminated with oil or grease from the milling or drilling process, it shall be cleaned by washing with high purity acetone and drying in air. 6.4 If the laboratory
40、 sample contains particles or pieces of widely varying sizes, the test portion should be obtained by riffling. 7 Procedure WARNING The risks related to combustion analysis are mainly burns in pre-igniting the ceramic crucibles and in the fusions. Use crucible tongs at all times and suitable containe
41、rs for the used crucibles. Normal precautions for handling oxygen cylinders shall be taken. 7.1 Determination 7.1.1 Weigh, to the nearest0,001g,0,9 to1,1g of the test sample, and transfer to a pre-ignited crucible(4.5) containing a suitable amount of the preferred flux(4.6). Add the appropriate quan
42、tity of accelerator(4.7), if required. The flux and accelerator used will depend on the individual characteristics of the equipment and the type of material being analysed. Typical additions to a1,0g test portion are2g of copper,1g of copper plus1g of iron,2 to3g of tungsten, or1g of vanadium pentox
43、ide plus1g of iron powder. Place the crucible lid in position. 7.1.2 Place the crucible and contents on the pedestal post of the furnace and, with oxygen flowing, raise to the combustion position. 7.1.3 Add50 to70ml of hydrochloric acid(4.10) and2ml of starch-iodide solution(4.11) to the absorption
44、vessel. Add sufficient potassium iodate solution(4.13) from a burette to obtain the intensityof the blue colour which will be taken as the end-point of the final titration. Refill the burette to the zero mark. NOTEFor sulfur contents higher than0,02% (m/m) use the stronger iodate solution(4.12). 7.1
45、.4 Switch on the furnace and combust the sample while passing oxygen through the system. Titrate continuously with the potassium iodate solution(4.13) to maintain the blue starch-iodine colour chosen as the end-point. Do not allow the solution to become colourless at any time during the titration be
46、cause of possible loss of sulfur dioxide. After the contents of the crucible have combusted completely, as shown by no further decrease of the blue colour, usually after about5min, turn off the power supply to the induction coil. 7.1.5 Note the volume of titrant added. 7.1.6 Repeat7.1.1 to7.1.5. 7.2
47、 Blank test 7.2.1 Charge a pre-ignited crucible(4.5) with the quantity of flux and accelerator to be used in the determination(7.1) and add1,00g of pure nickel of known low sulfur content(4.8). 7.2.2 Proceed as directed in7.1.2 to7.1.5. NOTE 1The volume of titrant corresponds to the blank due to the
48、 crucible, flux, accelerator and sulfur in the pure nickel. NOTE 2The blank should not exceed0,001% (m/m) sulfur. NOTE 3If the blank reading is abnormally high, investigate and eliminate the source of contamination. 7.3 Calibration 7.3.1 Select a certified standard reference steel(4.9). NOTEFor ferr
49、onickel, reference materials with a higher sulfur content are used. 7.3.2 Use the certified standard reference steel in conjunction with pure nickel of low sulfur content 0,001% (m/m) which is known or has been determined by ISO7525. 7.3.3 Weigh appropriate proportions of the two materials (7.3.1 and7.3.2) into a pre-ignited crucible, to cover the high end of the calibration range. Add the preselected amounts of flux and accelerator and combust as directed in7.1.2 to7.1.5. 7.3.4 Repeat7.3.3 to check the repeatability of the
