For some years the United Kingdom has participated in the work of prepar

8、ing methods of test applicable to aluminium fluoride for industrial use, organized by Sub-Committee7 “Alumina and related compounds” of Technical Committee47 “Chemistry” of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). As international agreement is reached on the methods, it is proposed

9、to publish them as parts of this British Standard. This part is based on International Standard ISO2362 “Aluminium fluoride for industrial use Determination of fluorine content Modified Willard-Winter method”, modified to take into account the comments made by the UnitedKingdom during its developmen

10、t, in particular by omitting the alternatives of spectrophotometric titration and distillation using perchloric acid. This standard prescribes methods of test only, and should be used or quoted as a specification defining limits of purity. Reference to the standard should be in a form of words indic

11、ating that the methods of test used conform to BS4993. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal

12、 obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 to4, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on

Weigh, to the nearest0.1

39、mg, about200mg of the dried test sample 2)into the platinum crucible(4.1). 5.2 Blank test. Carry out at the same time, using the same procedure, a blank test with the same quantities of all the reagents used for the determination, but omitting the test portion(5.1). 5.3 Determination 5.3.1 Preparati

40、on of the test solution. Introduce into the crucible(4.1) containing the test portion(5.1)2g of the sodium carbonate(3.1) and mix carefully, preferably by means of a platinum wire. Place the crucible in the electric furnace(4.2), previously heated to about200 C, and heat to800 20 C. Maintain at this

41、 temperature until the carbon dioxide is eliminated and the sample has melted (20min approximately). Remove the crucible from the furnace and cool rapidly by plunging the base of the crucible into a bath of cold water. Transfer the fused mass directly to the distillation flask(4.4.1), containing sev

42、eral soda-lime glass balls (2mm to3mm diameter), and wash the crucible carefully with20ml or30ml of hot water in order to dissolve that part of the melt still adhering to the crucible, collecting the washings in the distillation flask(4.4.1). 5.3.2 Distillation. Place a500ml one-mark volumetric flas

43、k under the condenser (4.4.6) to collect the distillate. Connect the distillation flask to the condenser(4.4.6) and start the water circulation. Stopper the distillation flask and add, through the dropping funnel(4.4.5),50ml of the sulphuric acid(3.5). Using the electric heater(4.5), heat the distil

44、lation flask until the solution reaches150 C. Pass steam from the generator(4.3) into the distillation flask so as to maintain the solution at150 1 C and collect about400ml of the distillate over a period of about90min. Disconnect the distillation flask from the steam generator(4.3), allowing the st

45、eam to escape to atmosphere, and remove the heater(4.5). Wash the condenser with a jet of water. Dilute the distillate to the mark in the collecting flask and mix. 5.3.3 Titration. Transfer50.0ml of the contents of the collecting flask(5.3.2) to the beaker(4.7). Add to the beaker about50ml of water

46、and0.50ml of the sodium alizarinsulphonate solution(3.9) and then, in small portions, the sodium hydroxide solution(3.4) until a pink coloration appears (pH of the colour change 6.6 to 6.8). Checking by means of the pH meter(4.6), add the hydrochloric acid solution(3.2) drop by drop until the pH val

47、ue is between4.9 and5.2 (yellow coloration of the solution). Add3.0ml of the sodium alizarinsulphonate solution and then, still checking with the pH meter, add the buffer solution(3.6) in small portions until the pH is3.4 0.1 (about1ml of the buffer solution is needed). Add0.50ml of the methylene bl

48、ue solution(3.10) (green coloration of the solution). Place a small glass-encased iron bar in the solution and stir vigorously using the stirrer(4.9). Fill the burette(4.8) with the thorium nitrate solution(3.8) and titrate just to the development of a blue-violet colour. Ensure that the same lighti

49、ng conditions are used as for the standardization of the thorium nitrate solution(3.8.2.2). NOTE 1Carry out the titration in daylight or under fluorescent lighting. The titration must not be carried out with the illumination provided by a tungsten filament lamp. NOTE 2If the methylthymol blue(3.11) is used as indicator, the pH3.4 buffer solution(3.7) should be used instead of pH2.7 buffer solution(3.6) and pH adjustments carried out with the perchloric acid solution(3.3) instead of the hydrochloric acid(3.2).
