The
10、 work of preparing International Standards 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-gove
11、rnmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The
12、 main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.

ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.ISO 6588-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 6, Paper, board and pulps.This second edition ca
14、ncels and replaces the first edition (ISO 6588-1:2005), which has been technically revised. The major difference compared with the previous edition is the addition of a paragraph in the scope to differentiate the results obtained with this standard from those obtained using ISO 29681 5.ISO 6588 cons

16、 are fixed to or in the fibre wall. In order to fulfil the electro-neutrality, these groups are balanced by an equivalent number of positive charges, which can be either protons or various metal ions. Especially in pulp suspensions at low ionic strengths, this can give rise to a marked uneven distri
17、bution of mobile ions between the volume held by the fibre wall and the bulk suspension liquor. This means that the fibre acts as an ion exchanger. These ion-exchange phenomena can be modelled very well with the Donnan theory 2, 3.If a relatively clean pulp fibre sample, for example bleached dried p
18、ulp, is diluted in deionised water, the result will be a pulp suspension with a very low ionic strength. In such a system, most of the cations present, including protons, will be concentrated in the water volume held by the fibre wall. If the pH is measured, it will be measured in the bulk suspensio
19、n liquor. By adding salt to this kind of system, the ion exchange phenomena will be decreased, and the concentration of different cations will be the same in the water held by the fibre wall and in the bulk suspension liquor. Since the process waters always contain a certain amount of ions, such a s
20、alt addition will give a more realistic environment when measuring the pH of relatively clean pulp samples.It is necessary to be aware of these effects when interpreting the measured pH-values of highly purified pulps.

21、d pulps Determination of pH of aqueous extracts Part 1: Cold extraction1 ScopeThis part of ISO 6588 specifies a method for the determination of the pH-value defined by the electrolytes extractable by cold water from a sample of paper, board or pulp.This part of ISO 6588 is applicable to all types of
22、 paper, board and pulp.As the quantity of extractable ionic material approaches zero, as in the case of highly purified pulps, the precision of the method becomes poor because of the difficulties encountered in making pH measurements on water containing little electrolytic material.Since the extract
23、ion in this part of ISO 6588 is performed with distilled or deionised water, the pH-value measured will sometimes be different (e.g. for fully bleached pulp) from the pH-value measured under mill process conditions in which various types of process waters, e.g. chemically treated river water contain
24、ing electrolytes, are used.It is necessary to be aware that the results will not be the same when measuring pH according to this part of ISO 6588 and to ISO 29681. The difference can be significant especially when measuring pulps having a low ionic strength.ISO 6588-2 differs from this part of ISO 6
25、588 only as regards the extraction conditions. No general guidance can be given as to which of the two procedures (hot or cold) is best suited in a particular situation.For cellulosic papers used for electrical purposes, the method used should be that given in IEC 60554-2 (see 4 in the Bibliography)

The conductivity of the wate
29、r shall not exceed 0,1 mS/m, after boiling for 1 h and cooling in an acid-free atmosphere (e.g. free of CO2, SO2, H2S) to a temperature between 20 C and 25 C. The pH of the water should be in the range of 6,8 to 7,3. Instructions for the determination of conductivity are specified in ISO 3696.4.2 St
30、andard buffer solutions, with known pH-values of about 4, 7 and 9. Such buffer solutions are commercially available. Some examples of suitable buffer solutions are given, and their preparation is described, in Annex A.4.3 Potassium chloride solution, 1M. Dissolve 7,4 g of KCl, analytical grade, into
31、 100 ml of freshly boiled, distilled water. Prepare a fresh solution every week.5 Apparatus and equipmentUse the following, in addition to ordinary laboratory apparatus and equipment.5.1 Glassware of chemically resistant glass, flasks with ground-glass joints, stoppers, beakers and fritted glass fil
32、ter. All glassware shall be cleaned with an acid cleaning solution, without the use of soap or detergent, and they shall be carefully rinsed with water (4.1) and allowed to dry before use.5.2 pH-meter, fitted with glass and calomel electrodes or with a combined electrode, capable of being read to at
33、 least 0,05 pH-unit.6 Sampling and preparation of sample6.1 SamplingThe sampling procedure to be followed depends on the particular circumstances in each case. If the analysis is being made to evaluate a lot or a consignment of pulp, paper or board, the sample shall be taken in accordance with ISO 7
34、213 or ISO 186, as relevant. If the analysis is made on another type of sample, report the origin of the sample and, if possible, the sampling procedure, and ensure that the specimen taken in 7.1 is representative of the sample received.Wear clean protective gloves when handling the sample.NOTE Some
35、 gloves are powdered to prevent them from sticking to one another, and this powder can cause contamination of the sample.6.2 Preparation of sampleDo not touch the sample with bare hands and ensure that it has been placed only on clean surfaces. Cut or tear the sample into pieces approximately 1 cm2i
36、n size with a clean knife or a cutter. Split samples of heavy board.Mix the pieces thoroughly. Store the pieces in clean, covered containers.7 ProcedureRun the procedure in duplicate.2 ISO 2012 All rights reservedBS ISO 6588-1:2012ISO 6588-1:2012(E)7.1 WeighingWeigh 2,0 g 0,1 g of air-dry sample (6.
37、2) in a 250 ml flask (5.1).NOTE Since the amount of sample is not critical, there is no need to determine the dry matter content to adjust for minor differences in moisture content.7.2 ExtractionAdd 100 ml of water (4.1) to the flask (5.1) containing the sample pieces. Check that all pieces are soak
38、ed. Seal the flask with its ground-glass stopper and leave it to stand for 1 h at a temperature between 20 C and 25 C. Shake the flask at least once during this time.Filter the extract through a coarse, fritted glass filter into a small beaker (5.1). Immediately add 2 ml of potassium chloride soluti
39、on (4.3) and continue with the measurement.7.3 Determination of pHOperate the pH-meter in accordance with the manufacturers instruction. Wash the electrodes with water (4.1); allow the water to drain from the electrodes, but do not wipe them. Calibrate the pH-meter (5.2), at a temperature between 20
40、 C and 25 C, with two different buffer solutions (4.2) having pH-values such that the pH of the extract is between the pH-values of the buffer solutions. The first buffer solution should be chosen so that the pH-value of the buffer solution is in the same region as the electric zero point of the pH-
41、meter (usually = 7). The reading for the second buffer solution should agree with its correct value to within 0,1 pH-unit.If the pH-meter fails to show the correct pH-value for the second buffer solution, consult the manufacturers manual. A deviation exceeding 0,2 pH-units indicates a faulty electro
42、de. Also a slow but continuous increase or decrease in the reading indicates faulty electrodes.After calibration, rinse the electrode several times with water (4.1) and once in a small quantity of the extract. Check that the temperature of the extract is between 20 C and 25 C. Immerse the electrodes
43、 in the extract. Record the pH when there is no measurable drift, within 30 s.Before measuring the next sample, rinse the electrodes carefully with water (4.1) to remove any traces of sample or buffer solution.At the end of a series of measurements, check the electrodes with buffer solutions.8 Calcu
44、lationCalculate the mean of the duplicate determinations.Report the pH-value to the nearest 0,1 pH-unit. The individual results should not differ by more than 0,2 pH-unit; if they do, repeat the determination with two additional extracts, and report the mean and the range of all measurements.9 Test
