Dissolved beryllium is determined by aspirating afiltered sample directly with no pretreatment. Total recoverableberyllium in the sample is determined in a portion of the filtr

The same digestion procedure is used to determinetotal recoverable cadmium (Test Methods D 3557), chromium(Test Methods D 1687), cobalt (Test Methods D 3558), copper(Test Methods D 1688), iron (Test Methods D 1068), lead (TestMetho

22、ds D 3559), manganese (Test Methods D 858), nickel(Test Methods D 1886), and zinc (Test Methods D 1691).9. Interferences9.1 Aluminum at concentrations greater than 500 g/L hasbeen reported to depress the beryllium absorbance.9.2 Sodium and silicon at concentrations in excess of 1000mg/L have been re

23、ported to severely depress the berylliumabsorbance.9.3 Beryllium is slightly ionized in the nitrous oxide-acetylene flame. This ionization is suppressed by addingcalcium chloride to give a final concentration of 900 mg/Lcalcium in all standard and sample solutions.10. Apparatus10.1 Atomic Absorption

Reagents and Materials11.1 Beryllium Solution, Stock (1.00 mL = 1000 g Be)Dissolve 1.000 g of beryllium metal in a minimum volume ofHCl (1 + 1) and dilute to 1 L. (Beryllium is toxic and thesolution should be prepared in a well-ventilated hood.)NOTE 2Ce

26、rtified beryllium stock solutions are commercially avail-able through chemical supply vendors.11.2 Beryllium Solution, Intermediate (1.00 mL = 100 gBe)Dilute 10.0 mL of the beryllium stock solution to 100.0mL with nitric acid (HNO3, 1 + 499).11.3 Beryllium Solution, Standard (1.00 mL = 1.00 gBe)Dilu

27、te 5.00 mL of the beryllium intermediate solution to500.0 mL with nitric acid (HNO3, 1 + 499).11.4 Calcium Solution (10 g/L)Dissolve 25 g of calciumcarbonate in a minimum volume of HCl (1 + 1) and dilute to 1L with water.11.5 Hydrochloric Acid (sp gr 1.19)Concentrated hydro-chloric acid (HCl).NOTE 3

28、If a high reagent blank is obtained, distill the HCl or usespectrograde acid. (When HCl is distilled, an azeotropic mixture isobtained (approximately 6 N HCl). Therefore, whenever concentrated HClis specified in the preparation of a reagent or in the procedure, use doublethe amount if distilled acid

29、 is used.)11.6 Hydrochloric Acid (1 + 1)Mix 1 volume of HCl (spgr 1.19) with 1 volume of water. Always add acid to water.11.7 Nitric Acid (sp gr 1.42)Concentrated nitric acid(HNO3).NOTE 4If a high reagent blank is obtained, distill the HNO3or usespectrograde acid.11.8 Nitric Acid (1 + 499)Add 1 volu

30、me of HNO3(sp gr1.42) to 499 volumes of water.11.9 Oxidant:11.9.1 Air, which has been passed through a suitable filter toremove oil, water, and other foreign substances, is the oxidantused prior to switching to nitrous oxide.11.9.2 Nitrous Oxide is the required oxidant.11.10 Fuel:11.10.1 AcetyleneSt

31、andard commercially available acety-lene is the required fuel. Acetone, always present in acetylenecylinders, can affect analytical results. The cylinder should bereplaced at a gage pressure of 75 psi (517 kPa). (“Prepurified”grade acetylene containing a special proprietary solvent otherthan acetone

32、 should not be used with poly (vinyl chloride)tubing as weakening of the walls can cause a potentiallyhazardous situation.)12. Hazards12.1 Due to the high toxicity of beryllium, all samplepreparation and digestion steps should be carried out in awell-ventilated hood. Also, the atomic absorption unit

33、 shouldbe vented as recommended by the manufacturer.D364508213. Standardization13.1 Prepare a blank and at least four standard solutions tobracket the expected beryllium concentration range of thesamples to be analyzed by diluting the beryllium standardsolution (11.3) with HNO3(1 + 499). Prepare the

34、 standards(100 mL) each time the test is to be performed.13.2 For total recoverable beryllium, add 0.5 mL ofHNO3(sp gr 1.42) and proceed as directed in 14.2-14.6. Fordissolved beryllium, proceed with 13.3.13.3 Add 1.0 mL of calcium solution to a 10.0-mL aliquotof each standard and blank solution. Mi

35、x thoroughly.13.4 Aspirate the blank and standards and record the instru-ment readings. Aspirate HNO3(1 + 499) between each stan-dard. (The atomic absorption unit should be vented properly.)13.5 Prepare an analytical curve by plotting the absorbanceversus the standard concentration for each standard

36、 on lineargraph paper. Alternatively, use a direct concentration readout ifthe instrument is so equipped.14. Procedure14.1 Measure 100.0 mL of a well-mixed acidified sampleinto a 150-mL beaker.NOTE 5If only dissolved beryllium is to be determined, start with14.5.14.2 Add 5 mL of HCl (sp gr 1.19) to

37、each sample.14.3 Heat the samples on a steam bath or hot plate until thevolume has been reduced to 15 or 20 mL, making certain thatthe samples do not boil. (Perform in a well-ventilated hood.)NOTE 6For brines and samples with high levels of suspended matteror total dissolved solids, the amount of re

38、duction is left to the discretionof the analyst.14.4 Cool and filter the samples through a suitable filter(such as a fine-textured, acid-washed, ashless paper) into100-mL volumetric flasks. Wash the filter paper two or threetimes with water and adjust to volume.14.5 Add 1.0 mL of calcium solution to

39、 a 10.0-mL aliquotof each sample and mix thoroughly.14.6 Aspirate each sample and determine its absorbance orconcentration. Aspirate HNO3(1 + 499) between each sample.15.

Summary of Test Method18.1 Bery

49、llium is determined by an atomic-absorption spec-trophotometer used in conjunction with a graphite furnace. Asample is placed in a graphite tube, evaporated to dryness,charred (pyrolyzed or ashed), and atomized. Since the graphitefurnace uses the sample much more efficiently than flameatomization, the detection of low concentrations of elements insmall sample volumes is possible. Finally, the absorption signalgenerated during atomization is recorded and compared tostandards. A general guide for the application of the graphitefurnace
