19、is document specifies a method for the extraction of phosphorus soluble in neutral ammonium citrate. The method is applicable to all fertilizers in respect of which solubility in neutral ammonium citrate is laid down in Regulation (EC) 2003/2003, Annex I (see 2). 2 Normative references The following
20、 referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

22、s of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 12944-1:1999 and EN 12944-2:1999 apply. 4 Principle Extraction of phosphorus at a temperature of 65 C using a neutral ammonium citrate solution of pH = 7 under the specified conditions. 5 Sampling Sampling is not part of the method specified
23、in this document. A recommended sampling method is given in EN 1482-1. Sample preparation shall be carried out in accordance with EN 1482-2. Grinding of the laboratory sample is recommended for homogeneity reasons. 6 Reagents 6.1 Water, distilled or demineralized. DIN EN 15957:2011-12 EN 15957:2011
24、(E) 5 6.2 Neutral ammonium citrate solution, pH = 7, containing 185 g crystallized citric acid per litre, specific gravity 1,09 at 20 C. Prepare the reagent as follows: Dissolve 370 g of crystalline citric acid (C6H8O7H2O) in about 1,5 l of water and make an approximately neutral solution by adding
25、345 ml of ammonium hydroxide solution (28 % to 29 % of NH3). If the NH3concentration is lower than 28 % add a correspondingly larger quantity of ammonium hydroxide solution and dilute the citric acid in correspondingly smaller quantities of water. Cool and make exactly neutral by keeping the electro
26、des of a pH-meter immersed in the solution. Add the ammonia, at 28 % to 29 % of NH3, drop by drop, stirring continuously (with a mechanical stirrer) until obtaining exactly a pH of 7 at a temperature of 20 C. At this point make up the volume to 2 l and check the pH again. Keep the reagent in a close
27、d container and check the pH at regular intervals. 7 Apparatus 7.1 Beaker, capacity 2 l. 7.2 pH-meter. 7.3 Erlenmeyer flask, capacity 200 ml or 250 ml. 7.4 Graduated flasks, capacity 500 ml and 2 000 ml.

30、ously heated to 65 C. 8.2 Extraction Stopper the Erlenmeyer flask (7.3) and shake in order to suspend the test portion without forming lumps. Remove the stopper for an instant in order to balance the pressure and close the Erlenmeyer flask again. Place the flask in a water bath (7.5) set to maintain
31、 the contents of the flask at exactly 65 C and connect it to the stirrer (see Figure 1). During stirring, the level of the suspension in the flask shall stay constantly below the level of the water in the water bath. If a mechanical stirrer is not available, the flask may be shaken by hand every 5 m
32、in. Regulate mechanical stirring to ensure complete suspension. After stirring for exactly 1 h, remove the Erlenmeyer flask from the water bath. Cool immediately under running water to ambient temperature and, immediately, quantitatively transfer the contents from the Erlenmeyer flask into a graduat
33、ed 500 ml flask (7.4) with a jet of water (wash bottle). Make up the volume with water. Mix thoroughly. Filter through a dry pleated filter (7.6) into a dry container, discarding the first part of the filtrate (about 50 ml). Collect about 100 ml of clear filtrate. 9 Test report The test report shall
34、 contain at least the following information: a) all information necessary for the complete identification of the sample; b) test method used with reference to this document; c) test results obtained; d) date of sampling and sampling procedure (if known); e) date when the analysis was finished; f) wh
35、ether the requirement of the repeatability limit has been fulfilled; g) all operating details not specified in this document, or regarded as optional, together with details of any incidents occurred when performing the method, which might have influenced the test result(s).
