35、g to the presumed vanadium content, weigh, to the nearest0,001g, the following mass of the test portion: a) for vanadium contents between0,04 and0,25%(m/m): approximately5g; b) for vanadium contents between0,25 and1%(m/m): approximately2g; c) for vanadium contents between1 and2%(m/m): approximately1
36、g. The quantity of vanadium in the test portion may vary between2 and20mg. 7.2 Blank test Carry out a blank test in parallel with the determination, by the same procedure and using the same quantities of all reagents. 7.3 Determination 7.3.1 Preparation of the test solution 7.3.1.1 Samples soluble i
37、n sulfuric acid Introduce the test portion(7.1) into a400ml beaker (seenotes1 and2) and add40ml of sulfuric acid(4.5) for a1g or2g test portion. For a5g test portion, add70ml of sulfuric acid(4.5). Cover the beaker with a watch-glass and heat gently until effervescence ceases. For samples with high
38、silicon contents, add5 to10 drops of hydrofluoric acid(4.4). Bring to the boil to ensure complete cessation of effervescence. If the test portion contains tungsten, add a sufficient quantity of hydrofluoric acid(4.4) to keep it in solution. In general5ml of hydrofluoric acid(4.4) will suffice for a1
39、g test portion,7ml for a2g test portion, and13ml for a5g test portion. Dilute the solution to between90 and100ml with water and proceed as in7.3.2. NOTE 1If hydrofluoric acid(4.4) is used, a fused silica beaker and a fused silica watch-glass shall be employed. NOTE 2The glassware used should not con
40、tain more than0,05%(m/m) of arsenic. If the glass contains barium, a barium sulfate precipitate may form; however, this will not adversely affect the determination. 7.3.1.2 Samples not readily soluble in sulfuric acid For test portions difficult to dissolve in the sulfuric acid medium the initial di
41、ssolution may be accomplished with a mixture of nitric acid(4.3) and hydrochloric acid(4.2). After dissolution, add the quantity of sulfuric acid(4.5) already indicated in7.3.1.1 and heat until white fumes are given off. Take up again with water, heating to dissolve the salts, then repeat the evapor
42、ation to white fumes to ensure that the nitric acid is completely eliminated. If the test portion contains tungsten, add a sufficient quantity of hydrofluoric acid(4.4) to keep it in solution. In general5ml of hydrofluoric acid(4.4) will suffice for a1g test portion,7ml for a2g test portion, and13ml
43、 for a5g test portion. Dilute the solution to between90 and100ml with water and proceed as in7.3.2. 7.3.2 Oxidation of chromium and vanadium Cool the solution(7.3.1) to approximately50 C. Add3g of potassium peroxydisulfate(4.1) per gram of test portion, heat slowly to boiling and boil for at least10
44、min. 7.3.3 Preparation of the solution for measurement 7.3.3.1 Control of the oxidation of chromium and vanadium Cool the solution(7.3.2) to room temperature. If it is necessary to remove graphite, filter the solution through a cellulose pulp lined coarse filter paper and wash with sulfuric acid(4.6
45、), adding several drops of hydrofluoric acid(4.4) to facilitate filtering. Make up the final volume of the solution to approximately150ml. Introduce the electrodes of the potentiometric device(5.1) into the beaker and agitate the solution, preferably with an electromagnetic stirrer. The potential sh
46、ould be above770mV. If the potential is lower, or if it falls regularly, remove the electrodes from the solution, and repeat the operations of7.3.2. Cool to room temperature and make up the volume to approximately150ml. Verify that the potential is above770mV. 7.3.3.2 Reduction of chromium and vanad
47、ium Introduce the electrodes into the beaker and reduce chromium(VI) and vanadium(V) by adding ammonium iron(II) sulfate solution(4.8) (seenote) to a slight excess (the potential drops to between500 and570mV), agitating continuously at a constant speed.EN24947:1991 BSI 10-1999 5 NOTEWhen the quantit
48、y of chromium is large (test portion of5g, or high chromium content) it is necessary to use a more concentrated ammonium iron(II) sulfate solution (e.g.400g/l) at the start, then finish with the solution4.8. 7.3.4 Oxidation of vanadium Cool the solution(7.3.3) to a temperature below15 C to avoid par
49、tial oxidation of the chromium. Wait2min. Then add, drop by drop, potassium permanganate solution(4.9) until the potential of the indicator electrode stabilizes between1100 and1160mV (seenote). The potential shall not exceed this range in order to avoid partial oxidation of the chromium. NOTEWhen the solution is not highly coloured, oxidation with the permanganate can be observed (light pink colouring, stable for2min). Wait2 to3min, during which time the potential shall neither
