This International Standard is not app
22、licable to starches and starch derivatives (see ISO 3593), to products intended for animal feeding stuffs (see ISO 5984), or to seeds. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applie
23、s. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

The residue obtained is fl
26、aky after incineration at 550 C and vitrified after incineration at 900 C. In general, products containing salts (e.g. sodium chloride, pyrophosphate) shall be incinerated at (550 10) C.

29、 fraction) and one part by volume of water. 5.2 Purified diphosphorus pentoxide (P4O10). 5.3 Ethanol. 6 Apparatus 6.1 Grinding mill, easy to clean and having as little dead space as possible, and ensuring rapid, uniform grinding. 6.2 Ashing dish, of capacity not less than 20 ml, rectangular or round
30、 shape, flat-bottomed and having a surface area of not less than 12 cm2. Suitable materials for the ashing dish which do not deteriorate under test conditions at the temperature of operation are: a) at 900 C platinum or rhodium; b) at 550 C quartz or silica. In both cases, the material used shall al
31、low compliance with the precision values. The dishes shall be cleaned by complete immersion for at least 1 h in hydrochloric acid (5.1), then rinsed with running water and then with distilled water.

32、010 03:35, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI3After rinsing, the dishes shall be dried in an oven (6.7) at a temperature and for a period sufficient to eliminate water. 6.3 Electrically heated muffle furnace, with adequate ventilation, provided with temperature control system and a refractory coating which
33、is not liable to lose particles at the ashing temperature, and capable of being maintained at (900 25) C or at (550 10) C. 6.4 Vacuum desiccator, equipped with a perforated aluminium or porcelain plate, and diphosphorus pentoxide (5.2) as drying agent. 6.5 Analytical balance, with an accuracy of 0,0
34、1 mg. 6.6 Riffle splitter or cone-shaped divider. 6.7 Oven for drying the ashing dishes. 7 Sampling A representative sample should have been sent to the laboratory. It should not have been damaged or changed during transport or storage. Sampling is not part of the method specified in this Internatio
35、nal Standard. Recommended sampling methods are given in ISO 6644 and ISO 13690. 8 Preparation of the test sample For grains or products containing whole grains, mix and divide the sample in order to obtain a representative quantity compatible with the type of grinding mill (6.1) being used. Grind th
36、e sample thus obtained. The other products do not require grinding. 9 Procedure 9.1 Determination of the moisture content Determine beforehand the moisture content of the test sample in accordance with ISO 712 for cereals other than maize or ISO 6540 in the case of maize or ISO 24557 in the case of
37、pulses. Pulses and their derived products should be processed according to ISO 712 with a 90 min drying time and preconditioning if moisture mass fraction is below 7 % or above 13 %. 9.2 Preparation of the ashing dishes For ashing dishes suitable for use at 900 C (6.2), bring the previously cleaned
38、dishes up to the incineration temperature being employed by putting them in the muffle furnace (6.3) for 5 min, leave them to cool in the desiccator (6.4), then weigh (6.5) them to within 0,1 mg. For ashing dishes suitable for use at 550 C, place the cleaned dishes in an oven (6.7) for the time requ
39、ired for drying (e.g. 90 min at 130 C). Immediately before use, remove the dishes from the oven and leave them to cool in a desiccator (6.4), then weigh (6.5) them to within 0,1 mg.

40、rolled Copy, (c) BSI4 9.3 Preparation of the test portion From the test sample prepared according to Clause 8 and carefully mixed, rapidly weigh (6.5) to within 0,1 mg a test portion between 3,9 g and 4,1 g in the case of incineration at 900 C and between 4,9 g and 5,1 g in the case of incineration
41、at 550 C. In the case of low density products, the test portion can be between (2 0,1) g and (3 0,1) g. In the ashing dish, prepared and weighed as described in 9.2, spread out the product, without packing it, to form a uniform layer. 9.4 Pre-ashing Place the ashing dish and its contents at the entr
42、ance of the furnace brought up to the ashing temperature. At 900 C, the products burst into flame spontaneously. At 550 C, it is necessary to ignite them with ethanol (5.3). For pre-ashing at 550 C, it is permissible to put the dishes in the cold furnace and to let the temperature of the furnace ris
43、e to the target temperature. 9.5 Ashing Wait until the product has finished burning, then place the dish inside the furnace. Close the furnace door. Continue the ashing until combustion of the entire product, including the carbon particles contained in the residue, is complete, namely 1 h minimum at
44、 900 C, and 4 h minimum at 550 C. Once the ashing is completed, remove the dish from the furnace and place it in the desiccator (6.4) to cool. In order to maintain the efficiency of the desiccator, do not stack dishes. Due to the hygroscopic nature of the ash, as soon as the dish has reached ambient
45、 temperature (namely 15 min to 20 min for metallic dishes and 60 min to 90 min minimum for quartz or silica dishes), weigh rapidly to within 0,1 mg. For test portions incinerated at 550 C, special precautions shall be taken to avoid flaky residues being swept away with the influx of air on opening t
46、he desiccator. The validity of the results obtained on this sample shall be checked with respect to the laboratorys self-inspection criteria (e.g. control chart). 9.6 Number of determinations Conduct at least two determinations on the same test sample. 10 Expression of results The ash yield, as a ma
47、ss fraction on the dry matter basis expressed as a percentage, wa,d, is given by Equation (1): wmmmw=a,d 2 10m100 100()100(1) BS EN ISO 2171:2010EN ISO 2171:2010 (E)Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 11/10/2010 03:35, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI5where m0is the mass, in grams, of t
