DIN EN 16399:2014-03 EN 16399:2013 (E) 7 3.4 Chemical properties The pH value of a diluted aqueous solution of sodium thiosulfate is approximately neutral (6,5 to 8). Sodium thiosulfate dissolves s
30、ilver halogenids and other silver salts. At elevated temperatures (50 C) sulfur dioxide is generated. Sodium thiosulfate releases sulfur dioxide when mixed with acids. Sodium thiosulfate reacts violently with oxidising agents; e.g. with sodium hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide. It shall not get into
31、 contact with acids, iodine, lead and silver salts. 4 Purity criteria 4.1 General This European Standard specifies the minimum purity requirements for sodium thiosulfate used for the treatment of water for swimming pools. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the product. Depending on
32、the raw material and the manufacturing process other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be notified to the user and when necessary to relevant authorities. Users of this product should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether it is of appropriate purity for treatment
33、of water for swimming pools, taking into account raw water quality, required dosage, contents of other impurities and additives used in the product not stated in this product standard. Limits have been given for impurities and toxic substances where these are likely to be present in significant quan
34、tities from the current production process and raw materials. If the production process or raw materials leads to significant quantities of impurities, by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user. 4.2 Composition of commercial product The concentration of sodium thiosu
35、lfate anhydrous shall not be less than a mass fraction of 95 % of Na2S2O3. The concentration of sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate shall not be less than a mass fraction of 95 % of Na2S2O3 5H2O.4.3 Chemical parameters The product shall conform to the requirements specified in Table 1. DIN EN 16399:2014

37、yanides (CN-) are not relevant in sodium thiosulfate because the raw materials used in the manufacturing are free of them. 5 Test methods The sampling and the analytical methods are those described in EN 12125. 6 Labelling - Transportation - Storage 6.1 Means of delivery Sodium thiosulfate shall be
38、delivered in paper bags with polyethylene lining, or in polyethylene bags, with net contents of 1 kg to 50 kg. In order that the purity of the product is not affected, the means of delivery shall not have been used previously for any different product or it shall have been specially cleaned and prep
39、ared before use. 6.2 Labelling according to the EU legislation4)At the date of the publication of this European Standard, no labelling requirements apply to sodium thiosulfate. The regulation 1, and its amendments for the purposes of its adaptation to technical and scientific progress contains a lis
40、t of substances classified by the EU. Substances not listed in this regulation should be classified on the basis of their intrinsic properties according to the criteria in the regulation by the person responsible for the marketing of the substance. 6.3 Transportation regulations and labelling Sodium
41、 thiosulfate is not classified as a dangerous product for road, rail, sea and air transportation. 4) See 1. DIN EN 16399:2014-03 EN 16399:2013 (E) 9 6.4 Marking The marking shall include the following: the name “sodium thiosulfate” and trade name; the net mass; the name and address of the supplier a

44、iosulfate is manufactured from sodium hydroxide, sodium hydrogen sulfite (solution) and sulfur. A.1.2 Manufacturing process The raw materials react under pressure at elevated temperatures. A.2 Use A.2.1 Function Sodium thiosulfate is used as a reducing agent to remove excess chlorine, chlorine dioxi

A.2.3 Treatment dose The treatment dose depends on the content of oxidants in the water. For chlorine, for example, in water the stoichiometric dose is 0,56 m
46、g of Na2S2O3for 1 mg of Cl2, but in practice an excess over the stoichiometric dose can be required. A.2.4 Means of application It is applied using a metering pump or directly into the swimming pool. A.2.5 Secondary effects The use of sodium thiosulfate increases the content of sodium and sulfate an
47、d can consume oxygen dissolved in the water. A.2.6 Removal of excess product The excess product is removed by oxidation.
