33、le Coulometric dissolution of tin coating in hydrochloric acid; Elimination of tin through hydrobromic distillation; Placing of remaining elements into solution and assaying of lead by means of atomic absorption spectro- photometry. A.3 Apparatus Direct current generator for currents of between 0 mA
34、 and 500 mA; Potentiometer recorder with a range of 0 mV to 2500 mV; Calomel electrode (ECS) and counter-electrode in platinum wire; Glass laboratory receptacles and adjustable hot plate; Air-drying vinyl spray paint can; Atomic absorption spectro-photometer with oven able to detect between 0 g/l an
35、d 100 g/l lead. A.4 Reagents All of the solutions shall be prepared on the basis of products intended specifically for toxicological analyses: Hydrochloric acid 2N; Hydrochloric acid at 10 %; Bromine solution at 10 % in hydrobromic acid; Sulphuric acid 9N; Lead standard solution at 5 g/mI prepared b

EN 10333:2005 (E) 8 A.5 Health and safety For the needs of the following instructions, the safety data sheets of the relevant used chemicals are applicable. A.6 Instructions Cut out a strip of tinplate (about 12 cm x 2.5 cm); Lacquer the surface which is
37、 not analysed; Overlap the edges of the sample, with the plain surface inwards, mount on a steel sample-holder (see Figure A.1) and insert into a 150 ml low profile beaker; Add about 50 ml of hydrochloric acid 2N, so that the tinplate is completely submerged; Position the electrode system (see Figur
38、e A.2) and perform the coulometric dissolution of tin by applying a current of 8 mA/cm; Load the dissolution curve of tin with the potentiometric recorder; Remove the sample and the electrodes, rinse in 2 changes of water and add 2 ml of sulphuric acid 9N; Reduce the volume to 5 ml approx. through s
39、oft evaporation; Add 5 ml of the bromine solution and proceed to the distillation of the tin by increasing the heat and stirring the contents of the beaker continuously; When white sulphuric flames begin to be produced, turn the heat up to a very high temperature to eliminate the sulphuric acid enti
40、rely; Leave to cool, then take up the dry residue with 10 ml hydrochloric acid to 10 % by placing on a low heat to dissolve; Transfer into a 100 ml volumetric flask and assay the lead by means of an electrothermal atomic absorption spectro-photometry; Carry out simultaneous blank tests for all reage
41、nts and at least 2 reference points leading to final solutions before spectro-photometry containing between 0 g/l and 100 g/l of lead (1 ml of the standard solution diluted in 100 ml leads to 50 g/l of lead).
