17、arbitrary analytical a descriptive term relating to the recoverable forms of barium that aredeterminable by the digestion method which is included in this test method.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 Barium is determined by an atomic absorption spectrophotometer used in conjunction with a graphite furna

18、ce. A sample isplaced in a graphite tube, evaporated to dryness, charred (pyrolyzed or ashed), and atomized. The absorption signal producedduring atomization may be recorded and compared with values obtained from standards that have been carried through the sameprocess. This facilitates interpolatio

19、n of the level of barium in the solution being analyzed. Since the graphite furnace uses thesample much more efficiently than flame atomization, the detection of low concentrations in small sample volumes is possible.NOTE 1The same graphite furnace procedure may be applicable to determination of ars

20、enic (see Test Methods D2972), cadmium (see Test MethodsD3557), chromium (see Test Methods D1687), cobalt (see Test Methods D3558), copper (see Test Methods D1688), iron (see Test Methods D1068), lead(see Test Methods D3559), manganese (see Test Methods D858), nickel (see Test Methods D1886), seleni

21、um (see Test Methods D3859), silver (see TestMethods D3866), and vanadium (see Test Method D3373).4.2 Dissolved barium is determined on a sample filtered through a 0.45-m membrane filter. The definition of dissolved bariumis arbitrary since very fine crystals of barium sulfate may pass through the m

22、embrane filter.4.3 Total recoverable barium is determined following acid digestion and filtration. Because chlorides interfere with furnaceprocedures for some metals, the use of hydrochloric acid in any digestion or solubilization step is to be avoided. If suspendedmaterial is not present, this dige

23、stion and filtration may be omitted. The holding time for the samples may be calculated inaccordance with Practice D4841.4.4 ICP-MS or ICP-AES may also be appropriate but at a higher instrument cost. See Test Methods D5673 and D1976.5. Significance and Use5.1 Barium ranks about sixth in order of abu

24、ndance in nature; however, it is normally found in only trace quantities in drinkingwater. Consumption, inhalation, or absorption of 500 to 600 mg is considered fatal to human beings. Lower levels may result indisorders of the heart, blood vessels, and nerves. The drinking water standards set the ma

25、ximum contaminant level for barium as2 mg/L.3 Lower levels may result in disorders of the heart, blood vessels, and nerves. The drinking water standards set themaximum contaminant level for barium as 2 mg/L.6. Interferences6.1 For a complete discussion on general interferences with furnace procedure

26、s, refer to Practice D3919.7. Apparatus7.1 Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer, for use at 553.6 nm with background correction. A general guide for flame atomicabsorption applications is given in Practice D4691.NOTE 2A wavelength other than 553.6 nm may be used if it has been determined to be suitab

27、le. At high concentration, greater linearity may beobtained by using a less sensitive wavelength.NOTE 3The manufacturers instructions should be followed for all instrumental parameters.7.2 Barium Light SourceBarium hollow-cathode lamp. A single-element lamp is preferred. Multielement lamps containin

28、gcalcium are not recommended.7.3 Graphite Furnace, capable of reaching temperatures sufficient to atomize the element of interest.7.4 Graphite Tubes, compatible with furnace device.

30、 and problem recognition (drift, incomplete atomization, changes in sensitivity, etc.).7.6 Automatic Sampling accessory should be used, if available.8. Reagents and Materials8.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals shall be used in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended that allr

31、eagents shall conform to the specifications of the Committee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society, wheresuch specifications are available. 4 Other grades may be used, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of sufficiently highpurity to permit its use without lessenin

32、g the accuracy of the determination.8.2 Purity of WaterUnless otherwise indicated, references to water shall be understood to mean reagent water conforming toSpecification D1193, Type I. Other reagent water types may be used, provided it is first ascertained that the water is of sufficientlyhigh pur

33、ity to permit its use without adversely affecting the bias and precision of the test method. Type II water was specified atthe time of round-robin testing of this test method.8.3 Barium Solution, Stock (1.0 mL = 1000 g barium)Dissolve 1.779 g of barium chloride (BaCl22H2O) in 50 mL ofconcentrated hy

34、drochloric acid (HCl) (sp gr 1.19) and about 700 mL of water. Dilute to 1 L with water. A purchased barium stocksolution of appropriate known purity is also acceptable.8.4 Barium Solution, Intermediate (1.0 mL = 10 g barium)Dilute 10.0 mLof barium solution, stock (8.3) and 1 mLof HNO3(sp gr 1.42) to

35、 1 L with water.8.5 Barium Solution, Standard (1.0 mL = 0.10 g barium)Dilute 10.0 mL of barium intermediate solution (8.4) and 1 mL ofHNO3 (sp gr 1.42) to 1 L with water. This standard is used to prepare working standards at the time of the analysis.8.6 Nitric Acid (sp gr 1.42)Concentrated nitric ac

36、id (HNO3).NOTE 4If the reagent blank concentration is greater than the method detection limit, distill the HNO3 or use a spectrograde acid.8.7 Argon, standard, welders grade, commercially available. Nitrogen and hydrogen may also be used, if recommended by theinstrument manufacturer.8.8 Filter Paper

37、Purchase suitable filter paper.Typically the filter papers have a pore size of 0.45-m membrane. Material suchas fine-textured, acid-washed, ashless paper, or glass fiber paper are acceptable. The user must first ascertain that the filter paperis of sufficient purity to use without adversely affectin

38、g the bias and precision of the test method.9. Standardization9.1 Initially, set the instrument in accordance with the manufacturers specifications. Follow the general instructions as providedin Practice D3919.10. Procedure10.1 Clean all glassware to be used for preparation of standard solutions or

39、in the digestion step, or both, by rinsing first withHNO3 (1 + 1) and then with water. Alternatively, soaking the glassware overnight in (1 + 1) HNO3 is useful for low levels.10.2 Measure 100 mL of each standard and well-mixed sample into a 125-mL beaker or flask.10.3 For total recoverable barium, a

40、dd 5 mL HNO3 (sp gr 1.42) to each standard and sample and proceed as directed in 10.4 10.6. If only dissolved barium is to be determined, take an aliquot of sample that has been filtered through a 0.45-m membranefilter (8.8) and proceed to 10.6.10.4 Heat the samples at approximately 95C (between 65C

41、 and 95C) on a steam bath or hotplate below boiling in awell-ventilated fume hood until the volume has been reduced to 15 to 20 mL, making certain that the samples do not boil.NOTE 5When analyzing samples of brines or samples containing appreciable amounts of suspended matter or dissolved solids, th

42、e amount ofreduction in volume is left to the discretion of the analyst.NOTE 6Many laboratories have found block digestion systems a useful way to digest samples for trace metals analysis. Systems typically consist ofeither a metal or graphite block with wells to hold digestion tubes. The block temp

43、erature controller must be able to maintain uniformity of temperatureacross all positions of the block. The digestion block must be capable of maintaining a temperature between 65C and 95C. For trace metals analysis,the digestion tubes should be constructed of polypropylene and have a volume accurac

44、y of at least 0.5%. 0.5 %. All lots of tubes should come with acertificate of analysis to demonstrate suitability for their intended purpose. Make sure that the reagent volumes maintain the same proportions as in themacro method.10.5 Cool and filter (8.8) the sample through a suitable filter such as

45、 fine-textured, acid washed, ashless paper, into a 100-mLvolumetric flask. Wash the filter paper two or three times with water and bring to volume.4 Reagent Chemicals, American Chemical Society Specifications, American Chemical Society, Washington, DC.
