The work of preparing International Standards
14、is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take pa
15、rt in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Stan
16、dard requires approval by at least75%of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard ISO13311 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC102, Iron ores, Subcommittee SC2, Chemical analysis. Together with ISO13310, it cancels and replaces ISO8753:1987, of which it constitutes a technical r
17、evision. Annex A forms an integral part of this International Standard. Annex B and Annex C are for information only.iv blankBS ISO 13311:1997 BSI 03-2000 1 WARNING This International Standard may involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This International Standard does not purport to
18、address all of the safety issues associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate health and safety practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a flame atomic absorption spectrom
19、etric method for the determination of the lead content of iron ores. This method is applicable to lead contents between0,001%(m/m) and0,5%(m/m) in natural iron ores, iron ore concentrates and agglomerates, including sinter products. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions w

30、ne-mark pipettes and one-mark volumetric flasks complying with the specifications of ISO648 and ISO1042 respectively, and 5.1 Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) beaker, of capacity250ml, with a PTFE cover. 5.2 Atomic absorption spectrometer, equipped with an air-acetylene burner. The atomic absorption s
31、pectrometer shall meet the following criteria. WARNING Follow the manufacturers instructions for igniting and extinguishing the air-acetylene flame to avoid possible explosion hazards. Wear tinted safety glasses whenever the burner is in operation. a) Minimum sensitivitythe absorbance of the most co
32、ncentrated calibration solution (see7.4.4) shall be at least0,25. b) Graph linearitythe slope of the calibration graph covering the top20%of the concentration range (expressed as a change in absorbance) shall not be less than0,7 of the value of the slope for the bottom20%of the concentration range d

34、an value of the absorbance of the most concentrated calibration solution. NOTE 1The use of a strip-chart recorder and/or digital readout device is recommended to evaluate criteriaa),b) andc) and for all subsequent measurements. NOTE 2Instrument parameters will vary with each instrument. The followin
35、g parameters were successfully used inseveral laboratories and they can be used as guidelines. In systems where the values shown for gas flow rates do not apply, the ratio of the gas flow rates may still be a useful guideline. 6 Sampling and samples 6.1 Laboratory sample For analysis, use a laborato
36、ry sample of minus1004m particle size which has been taken in accordance with ISO3081 or ISO3082 and prepared in accordance with ISO3082 or ISO3083. In the case of ores having significant contents of combined water or oxidizable compounds, use a particle size of minus1604m. NOTEA guideline on signif
37、icant contents of combined water and oxidizable compounds is incorporated in ISO7764. 6.2 Preparation of predried test samples Thoroughly mix the laboratory sample and, taking multiple increments, extract a test sample in such a manner that it is representative of the whole contents of the container
38、. Dry the test samples at105 C 2 C as specified in ISO7764. (This is the predried test sample.) 7 Procedure 7.1 Number of determinations Carry out the analysis at least in duplicate in accordance with Annex A, independently, on one predried test sample. NOTEThe expression “independently” means that
39、the second and any subsequent result is not affected by the previous result(s). For this particular analytical method, this condition implies that the repetition of the procedure is carried out either by the same operator at a different time or by a different operator including, in either case, appr
40、opriate recalibration. 7.2 Test portion Taking several increments, weigh, to the nearest0,0002g, approximately2g of the predried test sample obtained in accordance with6.2. NOTEThe test portion should be taken and weighed quickly in order to avoid reabsorption of moisture. 7.3 Blank test and check t
41、est In each run, one blank test and one analysis of a certified reference material of the same type of ore shall be carried out in parallel with the analysis of the ore sample(s) under the same conditions. A predried test sample of the certified reference material shall be prepared as specified in6.
42、2. NOTEThe certified reference material should be of the same type as the sample to be analysed and the properties of the two materials should be sufficiently similar to ensure that, in either case, no significant changes in the analytical procedure become necessary.

When the analysis is carried out on several samples of the same type of ore at the same time, the analytical value of one certified reference material may be used. 7.4 Determination 7.4.1 Decomposition of the test portion Transfer the test portion(7.2) to a250ml PTFE beaker(5.1). Moisten wi
45、th a few millilitres of water, add40ml of hydrochloric acid(4.3) and10ml of hydrofluoric acid(4.8), and cover with a PTFE cover. Heat on a hotplate at100 C, then increase the heat to200 C. Evaporate to dryness. Add5ml of nitric acid(4.7) and evaporate to nearly1ml. Dissolve the salts with10ml of hyd
46、rochloric acid(4.3) and evaporate to dryness again. Dissolve the salts with5ml of hydrochloric acid(4.3). Add10ml of water and filter through a close-texture paper into a250ml beaker. Remove all adhering particles from the beaker with a rubber-tipped rod, wash with hydrochloric acid(4.6) until the p
47、aper is free from iron stains, and wash the paper three times with hot water. Reserve the residue and combined filtrate and washings. 7.4.2 Treatment of residue Place the paper and residue in a platinum crucible, dry and char the paper at a low temperature and ignite in a muffle furnace at550 C. Add
48、0,5g of sodium carbonate(4.1) and fuse over a Bunsen burner (about900 C to1000 C) until a clear melt is obtained. Dissolve the cooled melt with5ml of hydrochloric acid(4.5), heat to remove carbon dioxide and reserve the solution. 7.4.3 Treatment of combined filtrate and washings Evaporate the filtra
49、te and washings(7.4.1) just todryness. Dissolve the salts with20ml of hydrochloric acid(4.4), and transfer to a200ml separating funnel. Rinse the beaker with20ml ofhydrochloric acid(4.4) and combine these washings with the main solution. Add50ml of 4-methyl-2-pentanone(4.2) and shake thoroughly for1min. Allow the layers to separate, then run the lower aqueous solution into a250ml beaker. Wash the organic phase by extracting with10ml of hydrochloric acid(4.4), and transfer the washings tothe beaker.
