1、Designation: D5547 95 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Test Method forClay and Zeolite in Powdered Laundry Detergents by AtomicAbsorption1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5547; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of rev

2、ision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers atomic absorption tests appli-cable to powdered laundry detergents containi

3、ng clay andzeolite.21.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices

Summary of Test Method3.1 The test sample

5、 is fused with lithium metaborate,dissolved in acid, its silicon and aluminum content measuredby atomic absorption, and the silicon/aluminum (Si/Al) ratiocalculated. The clay and zeolite content of the test sample iscalculated from the Si/Al ratio of the test sample and the Si/Alratio of the clay an

6、d zeolite expected in the test sample.4. Interferences4.1 Materials other than clay and zeolite that contain siliconor aluminum, or both, will interfere.5. Principle5.1 Clay and zeolite contain silicon and aluminum at differ-ent relative levels.5The silicon/aluminum ratio is then ameasure of the rel

7、ative level of clay and zeolite in detergentpowders. That is, detergent powders with a Si/Al ratio match-ing clay or zeolite contain only clay or zeolite, respectively.Detergent powders with Si/Al ratio falling between the Si/Alratio of clay and zeolite contain both clay and zeolite.5.2 This test me

8、thod is based on the linear relationshipbetween the relative composition (or ratio) of clay/zeolite indetergent powders and the Si/Al ratio of such detergents.5.3 A calibration equation is derivable, therefore, from justtwo experimental points: the Si/Al ratio of the zeolite standard(100 zeolite, 0

9、% clay) and the Si/Al ratio of the clay standard(0 % zeolite, 100 % clay).6. Apparatus6.1 Suitable Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometers, fittedwith a nitrous oxide-acetylene burner and aluminum andsilicon hollow cathode source lamps.6.2 Nitrous Oxide and Acetylene Tanks, with suitable regu-lators.6.
