Summary of Test Method4.1 The sample, after appropriate acid decomposition, isevaporated to near dryness. The salts are dissolved in acid,interfering elements are removed, and the zinc is extracted asth

9、iocyanate complex into MIBK. Zinc is determined in theextract by titrating with EDTA, using an internal indicator.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is primarily intended to test materialsfor compliance with compositional specifications. It is assumedthat all who use this test method will b

Interferences6.1 With the exception of cadmium and cobalt, elements donot interfere if their concentrations are under the maximumlimits sho

11、wn in 1.1.6.2 When the cadmium content is above 5.0 % in thematerial to be analyzed, some of the cadmium is extracted andwill titrate as zinc. The addition of potassium iodide before thetitration serves to prevent the interference of cadmium. Theamount of potassium iodide solution to add in order to

39、and transfer to the 500-mL volu-metric flask, which contains the filtrate from 13.7. Dilute tovolume and mix. Allow any remaining residue to settle.13.8 Transfer the solution obtained in 13.6 to a 500-mLvolumetric flask. Dilute to volume and mix. Allow anyremaining residue to settle.13.9 Extraction:

40、13.9.1 Pipet 50 mL of the clear solution obtained in 13.7.3or 13.8 into a 250 mL separatory funnel.Add 10 drops of ferricchloride solution and mix.NOTE 2Ferric chloride is added to aid the analyst in setting the pH ofthe solution. If iron is present in the sample already, the addition of theferric c

41、hloride solution can be eliminated.13.9.2 Add 20 mL of NH4Cl solution and mix.13.9.3 Add NH4OH, dropwise, until a slight turbidity de-velops.

42、oceed as directed in 13.9.6. When thecobalt content is higher than 0.05 %, the cobalt must beremoved. Proceed as directed in 13.9.5.13.9.5 Adjust the pH using pH paper to between 3 and 4 bythe dropwise additions of HCl (1 + 1) or NH4OH (1 + 1)solution. Add 5 drops of H2O2(30 %) and 2 mL of 2-nitroso

43、-1-napthol solution. Allow to stand 30 min with occasionalstirring.13.9.5.1 Add 20 mL of CHCl3, shake for 30 s, and allow thephases to separate. Discard the lower phase.13.9.5.2 Add another 20 mL of CHCl3and repeat theextraction again discarding the lower phase.13.9.5.3 Extract a third time using 10

44、 mL of CHCl3anddiscard the lower phase. Proceed as directed in 13.9.6.13.9.6 Add 5 mL of thiourea solution and 25 mL NH4SCNsolution, mixing after each addition.13.9.7 Add 80 mLof MIBK and shake vigorously for 1 min.Allow the phases to separate, and then draw off the loweraqueous phase into a second

45、separatory funnel. Retain theupper organic phase.13.9.8 Add 20 mL of MIBK to the second separatory funneland shake for 1 min. Allow the phases to separate and discardthe lower aqueous phase. Retain the upper organic phase.13.9.9 Transfer the portions from both separatory funnels toa 400-mL beaker. T

46、o each separatory funnel add 1 mL of HCl(1 + 4) and 50 mL of ethanol and shake for 5 s. Transfer bothof these solutions to the 400-mL beaker. Cover the beaker untilthe titration is to begin.13.10 Titration:13.10.1 Place a stirring bar into the solution in the 400-mLbeaker and place the beaker on a m

47、agnetic stirrer. Begin to stirat a moderate rate.13.10.2 While stirring, add 10 mL of NaF solution, 10 mLof thiourea solution, and 20 mL of buffer solution.13.10.3 If the cadmium content of the original sample isbelieved to be from 5 to 10 % add 10 mL of KI solution.13.10.4 Add 10 drops of xylenol o

48、range indicator solutionand 0.25 to 0.30 g ascorbic acid, and continue to stir. Titratewith the appropriate EDTAsolution chosen as prescribed in 8.8to a yellow end point.NOTE 3The reaction between EDTA and zinc is slowed down in thepresence of organic solvents. On approaching the equivalence point,

49、it isnecessary to work more slowly than usual. Wait 10 s after each additionof EDTA. Should a phase separation occur or the sample become cloudy,add 20 mL of ethanol and proceed with the titration.NOTE 4If the end-point is inadvertently passed, add 1.00 mL of zincstandard solution by means of a microburet. Complete the titration asusual. Correct the final result for the quantity of zinc added.E94507314.
