The elements lead,cadmium, mercury, antimony and bismuth are often declarablesubstances in solder materials. This test method provides ameans of determinin

16、g the listed declarable substances, as wellas other minor and trace constituents, in tin-based solder alloys.4.2 Two methods of dissolving tin-based solder alloys aregiven in this standard. The first method uses open-vesselhydrofluoric and nitric acid room temperature digestions; thesecond method em

17、ploys closed-vessel nitric and hydrofluoricacid microwave digestions, both for use only with ICP-AESinstruments equipped with a hydrofluoric acid resistant sampleintroduction system.4.3 The method of preparing calibration solutions uses 1000mg/kg single element reference material solutions, and uses

18、matching concentrated acids for both the calibration solutionsand the sample solutions.4.4 This test method is intended for use by laboratoriesexperienced with the set-up, calibration and analysis ofsamples using ICP-AES.5. Reagents5.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals, at aminimum, shall be

19、 used in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated,all reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.4Other grades equiva-lent or better than the ACS grade reagents may also be used.5.2 Purit

20、y of WaterUnless otherwise indicated, referencesto water shall be understood to mean high purity water, thatwhen produced, measures at minimum 18 Megohm cm-1resistivity.5.3 Concentrated AcidsWhen acids are specified by nameor chemical formula only, it should be understood that concen-trated reagents

22、ts. It is possible to derive mg/kg values from mg/Lassigned values through determination of standard solutiondensity and subsequent calculation of mg/kg unit values.5.4.1 The method of preparing calibration solutions uses1000 mg/kg single element reference material solutions of Pb,Cd, Hg, Sb, Bi, As

23、, Ag, Co, Fe, Cr, Cu, In, Ni, P, Se, Zn, Al,Ge, and Tl. A single element reference material solution of Scat 1000 mg/kg is required for use as an internal standard.5.4.2 It is not important that the assigned value of thereference material solutions be exactly 1000 mg/kg; forexample, the assigned val

24、ue may be 1001 mg/kg or 997 mg/kg.6. Equipment6.1 Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spec-trometry System (ICP-AES)Many makes and models ofICP-AES instruments are available on the market. See PracticeE1479 for a general description of ICP-AES instrumentation.The specific instrumentation used

25、 is not as important as itsperformance with regard to precision and sensitivity. However,a few important considerations for successful method perfor-mance are given below:6.1.1 Sample Introduction SystemMeasurement ofsamples prepared using hydrofluoric acid (HF) requires that thesample introduction

26、system must be designed specifically tocome in contact with HF. Glass sample introduction systemsare not compatible with HF, as glass is dissolved (etched) bythe acid. HF contact causes excessive wear of glass parts andcontamination of samples, thus having a negative impact on theequipment as well a

27、s results. Consult with the instrumentmanufacturer before using solutions containing HF.6.1.2 NebulizerAnalysis of samples prepared using HFrequires that the nebulizer, as part of the sample introductionsystem, must be compatible with HF. In addition, this methodrequires analysis of solutions with r

28、elatively high solidscontent on the order of 0.5 % by mass (5000 mg/kg). Thenebulizer should be chosen to accommodate free flow ofhigh-solids solutions such that the nebulizer does not clogduring the procedure, thus allowing consistent sample intro-duction.6.1.3 Facility DesignA general description

29、of design con-siderations for a spectrochemical laboratory can be found inPractice E416. Temperature control within the laboratoryhousing the ICP-AES system, and consistent power supply tothe instrument are two of the most important considerations.ICP-AES equipment tends to produce a significant amo

31、ls, BDH Ltd., Poole, Dorset, U.K., and the United States Pharmacopeiaand National Formulary, U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention, Inc. (USPC), Rockville,MD.F3139 152have a significant impact on the stability of instrument mea-surements. Sufficient equipment warm-up period and subse-quent stabilization of

32、room temperature may be necessary toproduce consistent measurements. Variations in power sup-plied to the instrument can likewise have an impact on thestability of instrument measurements, so stabilization of thepower input may also be necessary to produce consistentmeasurements.6.2 Analytical Balan

33、ceAbalance with minimum readabil-ity of 0.0001 g for loads up to 150 g is required for successfulperformance of this method.6.3 Microwave Digestion EquipmentModern laboratorymicrowave equipment, including pressure vessels, provide heatand pressure to digest difficult samples without potential loss o

34、fanalytes common to open hotplate digestions. Closed-vesselmicrowave digestion can help prevent possible loss of volatileelements, such as mercury, during sample preparation. Useonly microwave equipment designed specifically for laboratoryuse.7. Hazards7.1 Hydrofluoric acid and hydrofluoric acid fum

35、es can posesignificant risk to the operator. Proper handling should beobserved at all times, including the use of laboratory fumehoods, and laboratory coats, polymer gloves and protectiveeyewear. Carefully handle all solutions. Be sure to let micro-wave vessels cool for a sufficient amount of time b

36、eforeopening. Be sure to use only HF resistant sample introductioncomponents so as not to cause damage to glass parts. Alwaysmaintain the capability to flush skin with water for at least 5min in case of skin contact with HF; keep calcium gluconate orequivalent in the laboratory to neutralize contact

37、 with HF. Seekappropriate emergency medical help after contact with HF orHF fumes for unknown or extended periods of time.8. Internal Standardization8.1 The internal standard procedure requires that every testsolution have the same mass fraction of an internal standardelement that is not present in

38、the original specimen. Specimento specimen changes in the emission intensity of the internalstandard element can be used to correct for variations in the testspecimen introduction efficiency, which is dependent on thephysical properties of the test specimen (such as dissolvedsolids content, acid mas

39、s fraction, etc).8.2 Internal Standard SolutionWeigh approximately 5 g(to the nearest 10 mg) of 1000 mg/kg Sc reference materialsolution into a 100 mL polyethylene bottle and dilute to 100 gwith 5 % v/v HNO3. Prepare fresh at least monthly. The samebatch of internal standard solution should be used
