26、bonded silicon carbide refractories refractory products predominantly consisting of silicon carbide with minor amounts of nitride phases as a matrix component NOTE In general, metallic silicon is used as precursor material which undergoes a phase transformation in an oxygen-free nitrogen atmosphere.
27、 4 Methods for determination A list of methods and the relevant European Standards are given in Table 1. Carbon is determined by the evolution of carbon dioxide on combustion in a stream of oxygen at defined temperatures. Silicon carbide is calculated by the difference of total carbon (Ctotal) and f
28、ree carbon (Cfree). NOTE 1 The carbon dioxide evolved can be conveniently measured coulometrically, gravimetrically by absorbtion onto soda lime, or by infrared detection. EN 12698-1:2007 (E) 5 Free aluminium is determined by the evolution of hydrogen on treatment with hydrochloric acid and by measu
29、ring the gas volume in a nitrometer. Free silicon shall be determined on the same sample by treatment with sodium hydroxide. Total nitrogen is determined by a variety of methods: carrier gas fusion, alkaline fusion, Kjeldal distillation or microwave digestion. NOTE 2 The nitrogen can be conveniently
30、 measured by thermal conductivity or after digestion as ammonium by titration with hydrochloric acid. Distinction between aluminium nitride and silicon nitride is made by their reaction with sodium hydroxide solution; aluminium nitride is quantitatively decomposed yielding free ammonia, while silico
31、n nitride is unaffected. A convenient commercial apparatus for determining total oxygen consists of an induction furnace in which the sample is heated with pure carbon. Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are measured by infrared absorption and the integrated signals are combined to give the total ox
32、ygen content. NOTE 3 Specification of many of the constituents can often be made using XRD techniques, e.g. free silicon, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, quartz and cristobalite (see EN 12698-2).

When sampling large fragments, take care to collect samples from different points of individual pieces. Homogenize the sample by reduci
35、ng the maximum particle size to 150 m and take the test sample from this material. 6 Determination of free aluminium 6.1 Principle The volume of hydrogen generated by the action of dilute hydrochloric acid on any free aluminium in a sample is measured. EN 12698-1:2007 (E) 6 If the sample is known to
36、 contain carbonate, then the volume of hydrogen evolved is corrected for the known carbonate content. The free aluminium content can also be determined by the evolution of hydrogen using sodium hydroxide. In this case, the volume of hydrogen evolved is corrected for the silicon content. Free iron wi
37、ll also evolve hydrogen; a correction is made for the iron content. 6.2 Reagents During the analysis, unless otherwise stated, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade 6.2.1 Distilled water or water which has been fully demineralized by ion exchange (deionized water) and reagents of analytic
38、al grade. 6.2.2 Dilute hydrochloric acid, 1+1 by volume. 6.3 Apparatus 6.3.1 Nitrometer, as used for determining free silicon. 6.3.2 Balance, capable of reading to the nearest 0,1 mg. 6.4 Sample preparation Dry the test sample (sampling as described in clause 5) a to constant mass at (110 10) C for
39、a minimum of 2 h prior to analysis. 6.5 Procedure Weigh (0,5 0,01) g of sample into a clean, dry nitrometer tube. Place a dry ignition tube inside the tube and holding the nitrometer tube upright, introduce, using a long dropping pipette and without letting any touch the sample, 5 ml of dilute hydro
40、chloric acid into the ignition tube. Carefully fit the bung of the apparatus making sure there is good seal. Equalize the pressure and leave the three-way tap in a position that connects the sample and graduated tube. Tip the acid out of the ignition tube onto the sample. Shake the apparatus gently
41、and allow it to stand for 15 min. Read off the volume after equalizing the pressure. Shake gently and read again after another 5 min to 10 min. Record the final volume reading when consecutive readings are the same. Also note the temperature and barometric pressure. NOTE If this method is used frequ
42、ently, it is recommended that a conical flask with airtight sample insert device, e.g. a side-on positioned ground-in connection and ground-in stopper with weighing bottle (special version) is used. The weighed sample is placed into the stopper-connected weighing bottle. The hydrochloric acid is add
43、ed to the flask. After equalizing the pressure, the sample powder is added to the acid by turning the stopper. 6.6 Calculation and expression of results Correct the volume reading to the gas volume at standard temperature, V(STP)in ml, using equation (1): EN 12698-1:2007 (E) 7 ()( )()TppVV+=27327301

Calculate the percentage of free aluminium, A, using equation (

Report the result to the nearest 0,1 %. 7 Determination of total nitrogen 7.1 General To determine total nitrogen one of the four methods given in 7.2 to 7.5 shall be used. 7.2 Determination of total nitrogen by carrier gas fusion
46、 (CGF) 7.2.1 General This method is used to determine nitrogen in silicon nitride, Si3N4, and other compounds, in the form of nitrides and oxynitrides by thermal decomposition. 7.2.2 Principle A sample, prepared as described in clause 5, is decomposed in a graphite crucible in a stream of carrier ga
47、s (helium) by heating it to above 2 400 C in a resistance furnace (electrode furnace). The gases released are mainly nitrogen, carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The carbon monoxide and hydrogen are oxidized to carbon dioxide and water and then removed by absorption. Alternatively, formed carbon monoxide
48、 and gases other than nitrogen shall be removed, for example, using a molecular sieve. The change in thermal conductivity due to the nitrogen component is then measured. The details of the determination procedure can vary with the type of apparatus used and it is therefore only possible to give gene
49、ral instructions that can be used with any type of apparatus. Using the gas calibration, the validity of the results is confirmed by analysing a reference material having similar extraction behaviour.
