10、andardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The 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 rig
11、ht to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, 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.The procedures
12、 used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rul
13、es of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identi
14、fied during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not constitute an endorsement.For an explanation on

17、ntrates Determination of hygroscopic moisture content of the analysis sample Gravimetric methodWARNING Any chemical-reagent waste must be disposed of in an environmentally sound manner that does not injure the health or welfare of the environment, people, animals, vegetation, etc.1 ScopeThis Interna
18、tional Standard specifies a gravimetric loss-in-mass method for the determination of the hygroscopic moisture content in analysis samples of copper, lead, zinc, and nickel sulfide concentrates.The method is applicable to copper, lead, zinc, and nickel sulfide concentrates free from volatile organic
19、flotation reagents, for example kerosene, and with hygroscopic moisture contents between 0,05 % (m/m) and 2 % (m/m). The hygroscopic moisture content is used to correct the analysis results from the equilibrated moisture level to the dry basis.NOTE The result of the determination of hygroscopic mois
20、ture content using this International Standard should not be reported as part of the analysis of a concentrate sample. Whenever the bulk moisture content of a commercial shipment of concentrate is required, ISO 10251 should be used. The determination of hygroscopic moisture content and the determina
21、tion of bulk moisture content are connected with each other. In both determinations, the same state of dryness has to be achieved, in order to ascertain the correct metal content of a lot.This method is not applicable to sulfide concentrates that are susceptible to oxidation (see 6.3, note 2). Annex
22、 A sets out a modified procedure, which can be used for sulfide concentrates that are susceptible to oxidation.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

27、the laboratory sample for the required chemical analysis and moisture determination and transfer to a flat dish or tray (5.4). Spread the sample evenly into a thin layer about 3 mm to 5 mm thick. Cover the dish to protect the sample from dust, but allowing a free flow of air across the top of the sa
28、mple. Allow the test sample to equilibrate with the laboratory atmosphere for 2 h or for long enough to achieve equilibration.Equilibration is achieved whenever the change in mass of the test sample over a 2 h period of exposure is less than 0,1 %.7 Procedure7.1 Preparation of the weighing vesselDry
29、 a weighing vessel and cover (5.3) by heating in the laboratory oven (5.2) at 105 C 5 C for 1 h. Transfer the weighing vessel and cover to a desiccator containing a suitable fresh desiccant (4.1), and allow to cool to ambient temperature. Remove the weighing vessel and cover from the desiccator and
30、weigh to the nearest 0,1 mg (mass m1), after slightly lifting the weighing vessel cover and quickly replacing it.7.2 Test portionTransfer approximately 10 g of the equilibrated test sample (6.2) directly to the dried and tared weighing vessel (7.1), spreading in an even layer about 3 mm to 5 mm thic
31、k. Record the mass of the weighing vessel and cover plus test portion to the nearest 0,1 mg (mass m2). Within the following 5 min, also weigh the test portions required for the determination of constituents for which correction of the analytical values to a dry basis is required and transfer such te
32、st portions to the appropriate receptacles required for subsequent testing.7.3 DeterminationTransfer the uncovered weighing vessel containing the test portion and the vessel cover to the laboratory oven (5.2) and dry at 105 C 5 C for 2 h. After the 2 h period, remove the weighing vessel containing t
33、he dry test portion from the oven, replace the cover and allow cooling to ambient temperature in the desiccator.

34、h to the nearest 0,1 mg, after slightly lifting the weighing vessel cover and quickly replacing it.Repeat the drying at 105 C 5 C for another 2 h, cool to ambient temperature in the desiccator and weigh to determine if constant mass ( 1 mg) has been achieved. If constant mass has not been achieved,
35、repeat the drying and weighing steps described above. Record the constant mass (m3).NOTE If constant mass ( 1 mg) is not achieved after three drying periods of 2 h, then the method specified in Annex A should be used.8 Expression of resultsThe hygroscopic moisture content, H, expressed as a percenta
