1、Designation: D 4764 01 (Reapproved 2006)Standard Test Method forDetermination by X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy ofTitanium Dioxide Content in Paint1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4764; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,

2、 in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of titaniumdioxide content in liquid

3、paint. This test method is applicableto both water-reducible and solvent-reducible paints.1.2 The values stated in SI units ae to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, assoc

6、 Practice for Determining the Precision of ASTMMethods for Analysis and Testing of Industrial and Spe-cialty Chemicals3. Summary of Test Method3.1 Paint containing a known amount of titanium dioxide isused as the reference standard. A solution of tetraethylammo-nium bromide in 2-ethoxyethanol is add

7、ed to the standard paintand to each paint being analyzed. Drawdown films of thestandard and test paint are made on thin plastic sheets. Theintensities of key X-ray fluorescence peaks of titanium andbromine are measured. The titanium dioxide content is deter-mined by comparing the ratio of the intens

8、ities of titanium andbromine peaks in the test paint and the standard. Differences inthe nonvolatile content of the paints are taken into account inthe calculation of results.4. Significance and Use4.1 Titanium dioxide pigments are components with highrefractive index that significantly influence th

9、e opacity, color,durability, and other properties of coatings. This test methodfor determining titanium dioxide content is quicker and easierto use than Test Methods D 1394, a wet chemical analysismethod for pigments. It is conveniently applicable to singlesamples and to large numbers of samples. On

10、ly a singlerelatively stable reagent used to prepare standards and paintsunder test need be stored. Drawdown specimens used asstandards, once prepared, can be stored indefinitely and usedrepeatedly.5. Apparatus5.1 X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer, suitable for measure-ment of the baseline corrected i

11、ntensity of the Ka lines oftitanium and of bromine. For spectrometers equipped with atungsten or chromium target and a lithium fluoride (200)analyzing crystal, these lines are observed at 2u angles of86.09 and 29.97, respectively.NOTE 1Follow the recommendations of the manufacturer of theinstrument

12、used. Use operating conditions that ensure that the count ratefor bromine and titanium are within the linear response range of thedetector. Although the base operating conditions and count rate may bedifferent for different instruments, these differences will not affect theoutcome of the analysis.5.

(TEAB dis-solved in 2-ethoxyethanol can be used as an internal standardfor both water-reducible and solvent-reducible paint. However,water may be substituted for 2-ethoxyeth

Hazards7.1 As exposure to excessive quantities of x-radiation isinjurious to health, X-ray producing equipment can be danger-ous to both the operator and persons in the immediate vicinityunless safety precautions are strictly observed. Theref

21、ore, usersshould avoid exposing any parts of their bodies, not only to thedirect beam, but also to secondary or scattered radiation thatoccurs when an X-ray beam strikes or passes through anymaterial. It is strongly recommended that users check thedegree of exposure by film carried on them or by the

22、 use ofdosimeters and that blood counts be made periodically. Beforeutilizing the equipment, all persons designated or authorized tooperate X-ray instrumentation or supervise its operation,should have a full understanding of its nature and should alsobecome familiar with established safe exposure fa

23、ctors by acareful study of the National Bureau of Standards Handbook“X-ray Recommendations of the International Roentgen RayCommittee on X-ray Protection,”6the manufacturers instruc-tion manual, and other standard publications on the subject.Inquiries should be made of state agencies as to existingr

24、equirements.8. Specimen Preparation8.1 Thoroughly mix and sample each paint in accordancewith Practice D 3925. Prepare duplicate specimens of thestandard paint, which contains a known concentration oftitanium dioxide, and each test paint using the followingprocedure. Into a 20-mL vial weigh approxim

25、ately 7.00 g ofpaint to 1 mg. Pipet 2 mL of TEAB internal standard solution(see 6.4) into the paint and thoroughly mix.8.2 Place a plastic sheet on the perforated suction plate. Onthe plastic sheet make a 3.0-mil (75-m) thick drawdown of theliquid paint.Air dry the drawdown film overnight. Cut from

26、thedrawdown on the plastic sheet a disk of a size appropriate forthe specimen holder of the spectrometer.8.3 Determine the percent nonvolatile content of each paintat 110C in accordance with Test Method D 2369 if theinformation is not already available.9. Procedure9.1 Turn on the spectrometer and al

27、low it to stabilizethoroughly before beginning collection of results. With the aidof the manufacturers literature, select spectrometer settings topermit measurement of the intensity of the Ka peaks oftitanium and bromine. For instruments equipped with an X-raytube with a tungsten or chromium target,

28、 the settings pre-scribed in Table 1 may be used as guidelines (Note 1).9.2 Place the disk in the specimen holder in such a way thatthe coated side of the sheet is turned toward the incidentX-rays. Before measuring the specimens, record the back-ground spectrum in the ranges of the Ka peaks of titan

29、ium andbromine, including at least 10 on each side. Check the spectrafor the presence of interfering peaks and select for each peak anangle for background measurement where interference is at aminimum.9.3 At the selected angles measure the background intensi-ties and the intensities of the Ka peaks

30、of titanium and brominein counts per second (c/s). Determine the net intensity, c/s, ofeach peak by subtracting the background count from the peakcount.4Leneta P-121-10N dull black plastic panels 165 by 432 by 0.25 mm (612 by 17in. by 10 mils) in size, available from Leneta Co., 15 Whitney Rd., Mahw

Precision and Bias11.1 PrecisionIn an interlaboratory study of this testmethod, one operator in each of five laboratories analyzed ontwo days two samples of latex house paint and two samples ofsol

40、vent-reducible house paint. The mean weight percent tita-nium dioxide in samples Number 1 through 4 was, respec-tively, 3.64, 19.1, 7.44, and 15.8 %. The pooled within-laboratory coefficient of variation was 2.39 % with 19 df andthe pooled between-laboratories coefficient of variation 4.47 %with 15

41、df, after discarding one duplicate value from onelaboratory because the range differed significantly from allother duplicate ranges for paint sample Number 2. Based onthese coefficients of variation, the following criteria should beused for judging the acceptability of results at the 95 %confidence

42、level (see practices D 3980 and E 180):11.1.1 RepeatabilityTwo results, each the mean of dupli-cate determinations, obtained by the same operator on differentdays should be considered suspect if they differ by more than7.08 % relative.11.1.2 ReproducibilityTwo results, each the mean of du-plicate de

43、terminations, obtained by operators in different labo-ratories should be considered suspect if they differ by morethan 13.5 % relative.11.2 BiasBias cannot be determined because there are noaccepted standards for titanium dioxide in paints.12.
