The silver nitrate solution is standardized using the method given in annex A, to derive the correlation factorf,. This is stored in a

Weigh, to the nearest 0,001 g, approximately 0.5 g of the solid flux sample or 2 g of the liquid flux sam- ple, avoiding loss of volatile matter during the weigh- ing, and transfer it to a 250 ml low-form beaker. NOTE 3 This procedure is suitable for halide ion concen- trations gene
16、rally within the range 0.1 % (m/m) to 1 % (m/m) in the non-volatile content of the solution to be titrated. For flux samples having halide ion concentrations outside this range, the sample mass taken should be ad- justed, as follows: a) for flux samples having a halide ion concentration in the range
17、 0,05 K (m/m) to 0.1 % (m/m), the mass of sample taken should be double; and b) for flux samples having a halide ion concentration in the range 1 % (m/m) to 2 % (m/m), the mass of sample taken should be halved. Add 100 mi of propan-2-01 (32.2). or water, according to the solubility characteristics o

NOTE 4 For fluxes of class 1.2, as defined in IS0 9454-1 the choice of solvent should be agreed between the flux manufacturer and the user. Place the beaker on the stand of the titration as- sembly with
19、the electrodes, stirrer and burette in position. Adjust the speed of the stirrer to give vigor- ous stirring without splashing. Titrate with the silver nitrate solution (3.2.31, adding 1 ml portions and re- cording the mV meter readings after each addition. As the end-point is approached, reduce the
20、 additions of titrant to 0.1 ml and continue titrating past the end-point. Plot the potential values against the volume of titrant added to obtain the titration curve.

A blank determination using water in place of the flux is carried out simultaneously and the percentage halide content, expressed as chloride, is calculated. The method is n
