23、lel with the determination and following the same procedure, carry out a blank test using the same quantities of all reagents. NOTEA typical blank value for this method in the range0.0005%(m/m) to 0.010%(m/m) lead is equivalent to approximately0.0005%(m/m) lead. 6.3 Determination 6.3.1 Preparation o

24、f the test solution 6.3.1.1 Place the test portion in a250mL conical beaker. Add5mL of hydrochloric acid (3.9) and1mL of nitric acid (3.13), and heat gently until solvent action ceases. Add0.5mL of perchloric acid(3.15), evaporate to dryness and bake for10min. For samples containing niobium or titan

25、ium use8mL of sulfuric acid (3.20) instead of the perchloric acid, evaporate until slight fumes of sulfur trioxide appear, and cool. NOTEThese and all subsequent reagent additions should be made by means of a safety pipette or burette. 6.3.1.2 Redissolve the residue in 10mL of hydrochloric acid (3.9

26、), cool and transfer to a150mL separating funnel. Rinse the beaker three times with3mL portions of hydrochloric acid (3.9) and combine with the solution in the separating funnel. Add25mL of amyl acetate (3.5) and shake vigorously for2min. Allow the layers to separate and run off the lower (acid) lay

27、er into a250mL conical beaker. Wash the amyl acetate layer twice by shaking with2mL portions of hydrochloric acid(3.9), allowing the layers to separate, and combining the acid layers with the first acid extract. 6.3.2 Removal of bismuth NOTEFor unalloyed and low-alloy steels where bismuth is known t

28、o be absent the directions given in6.3.2 may be omitted. Add0.5 mL of perchloric acid (3.15) and a few drops of nitric acid (3.13) to the acid extract, cover the beaker and evaporate until fumes appear. Cool, add2mL of hydrochloric acid (3.9) and10mL of hydroxylammonium chloride solution (3.11). War

29、m to redissolve any salts, then boil for2min. Add20mL of ammonium citrate solution (3.4), heat to incipient boiling and simmer for3min. Cool, neutralize with ammonia solution (3.2) to pH7.5to pH9.0, testing the solution with a narrow-range pH testpaper, then transfer to a200mL separating funnel mark

30、ed at100mL and dilute to the mark. Add 20 mL of potassium cyanide solution (3.16). For samples containing more than30%(m/m) of nickel add an extra5mL of potassium cyanide solution(3.16) for every additional10%of nickel. Add10mL of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate solution (3.18), mix and allow to stand

31、 for2min. Extract the lead complex three times by shaking with successive additions of15mL, 10mL, and10mL of chloroform (3.6), each time allowing the layers to separate and combining the chloroform extracts in a250mL conical beaker. Transfer the combined chloroform extracts to a100mL separating funn

32、el and shake with25mL of hydrochloric acid (3.10). Allow the layers to separate and run off the lower (chloroform) layer into a second100mL separating funnel. Repeat the extraction from the chloroform by shaking with a second portion of25mL of hydrochloric acid (3.10). Allow the layers to separate,

33、run off and discard the lower (chloroform) layer. Combine the two aqueous layers in a250mL conical beaker. 6.3.3 Treatment of the lead solution Add 1 mL of nitric acid (3.13), 2mL of perchloric acid (3.15) and4mL of sulfuric acid (3.20), cover the beaker, then evaporate to fumes of sulfur trioxide.

Rinse the cover and walls of the beaker with5mL of water, add1mL of citric acid solution (3.7), three drops of thymol blue indicator (3.21), then add ammonia solution (3.1)

35、until the colour of the indicator changes to blue. Add5mL of ammonia solution (3.2) and cool. If the sample contains more than0.01%(m/m) lead, dilute the solution to 50mL in a volumetric flask and take a suitable aliquot for the test. It is essential that the blank test is fractionated in the same w

36、ay. 6.3.4 Development of the colour Transfer the solution or aliquot to a150mL separating funnel marked at 50mL and rinse with water. Add5mL of potassium cyanide solution(3.16) and dilute to the mark.BS6200-3.16.3:1991 BSI 09-1999 3 From a burette, add8.0mL of chloroform (3.6) and then add dithizone

37、 solution (3.8) (also from a burette)1.0mL at a time, shaking between each addition, until an excess of dithizone is indicated by the colour of the chloroform layer changing to a purple-blue. Add2.0mL of dithizone solution (3.8) in excess, then sufficient chloroform (3.6) to bring the total amount o

38、f chloroform and dithizone solution to15.0mL. Shake vigorously for2min, allow the two layers to separate, then run the chloroform layer into another separating funnel containing40mL of potassium cyanide solution(3.17) and10mL of ammonia solution(3.3). Shake for1min and allow the layers to separate.

39、Filter the chloroform layer through a5.5cm rapid filter paper into a clean dry1cm cell, discarding the initial few drops. 6.3.5 Spectrophotometric measurement Set the spectrophotometer (4.3) to zero absorbance in relation to water. Measure the absorbance of the test solution and the blank at a wavel

40、ength of510nm.
