11、form and in aqueous solution. It provides a full range of tests for use in conjunction with BS5633, which specifies potassium hydroxide for use in alkaline cells. Not all of these tests may be necessary when testing potassium hydroxide for other industrial uses (in such cases the methods may be used

12、 selectively). The opportunity has been taken, where appropriate, to incorporate substantially the technical content of International Standards from the series of methods of test for potassium hydroxide for industrial use which has been prepared, with the active participation of the UnitedKingdom, b

13、y Sub-committee5 of Technical Committee47, Chemistry, of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The relationship between the appropriate BritishStandard methods and the International Standards is shown in the table below. The method of ISO2466 has been modified by the introduction

14、 of two sample solutions, one a solution of the sample corresponding to solution A in ISO2466 and the other an acidified solution of the sample, designated solution B. A third solution, designated C, is a blank for the acid used in the preparation of solutionB. If it is necessary to determine all th

15、e trace metals, the use of solutionB results in considerable saving of time. The procedure used for the determination of arsenic, which is the same as that described in BS4404, is technically similar to the method given in ISO2590. Atomic absorption methods are described for the determinations of ca

16、lcium, zinc and lead. The flame emission photometric method used for the determination of sodium is similar in principle to that described in ISO1550 but, in accordance with UnitedKingdom comments not accepted by the ISO committee, does not restrict the fuel for the atomizer-burner of the flame spec

Other International Standards in the series of methods of test for potassium hydroxide for industrial use will be published as addenda to this British Standard, subject to their approval by the UnitedKingdom.

25、s The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 3 Preparation of sample solution 3.1 Principle. Three solutions are prepared, solution A which is a solution of the sample in water, solution B which is an acidified solution of the sample in water and

26、 solution C which is a blank for the acid used in preparing solution B. NOTEThe use of these bulk sample solutions serves to reduce sampling errors. In the case of solution B, acidification ensures dissolution of metallic impurities and allows more uniform sampling for the determination of metallic

27、impurities. 3.2 Reagents. The reagents used shall be of recognized analytical quality. Water complying with the requirements of BS3978 shall be used throughout. 3.2.1 Hydrochloric acid, approximately5N solution. 3.2.2 Methyl orange indicator solution, 0.4g/l, prepared as described in BS4123. 3.3 App
