This

16、European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2005, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2005. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, t

EN 10318:2005 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a glow discharge optical emission spectrometric method for the determination of the thickness and chemical composition of metallic surface coatings consistin

19、g of zinc and aluminium based alloys. The alloying elements considered are aluminium, nickel, silicon and lead. This method is applicable to zinc contents between 40 % (m/m) and 100 % (m/m); aluminium contents between 0,01 % (m/m) and 60 % (m/m); nickel contents between 0,01 % (m/m) and 15 % (m/m);

20、silicon contents between 0,01 % (m/m) and 3 % (m/m); lead contents between 0,005 % (m/m) and 0,1 % (m/m). 2 Normative references Not applicable. 3 Principle The analytical method described here involves the following processes: a) Cathodic sputtering of the surface coating in a direct current glow d

21、ischarge device; b) Optical excitation of the analyte atoms in the plasma formed in the glow discharge device; c) Spectrometric measurement of characteristic emission spectral lines of the analyte atoms as a function of sputtering time (depth profile); and d) Conversion of the depth profile in units

22、 of intensity versus time to mass fraction versus depth by means of calibration functions (quantification). Calibration of the system is achieved by measurements on calibration samples of known chemical composition and measured sputtering rate. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Glow discharge optical emission spectro

23、meter 4.1.1 General An optical emission spectrometer equipped with a Grimm type (1) or similar direct current glow discharge source and a simultaneous optical spectrometer, incorporating suitable spectral lines for the analyte elements (see Table 1 for recommended lines) shall be used. The inner dia

24、meter of the hollow anode of the glow discharge shall be in the range 2 mm to 8 mm. A cooling device for thin samples, such as a metal block with circulating cooling liquid, is also recommended, but not strictly necessary for implementation of the method. It is desirable for the instrument to confor

25、m to the performance specifications given in 4.1.2 and 4.1.3, to be evaluated in 6.2.6. 4.1.2 Minimum repeatability Perform 10 measurements of the emission intensity on a homogeneous bulk sample with a content of the analyte exceeding 1 % (m/m). Allow the discharge at least 60 s stabilisation time (

26、often referred to as preburn) before each intensity measurement. Each measurement shall be located on a newly prepared surface of the sample. Calculate the standard deviation of the 10 measurements. The standard deviation should not exceed 2 % of the mean intensity of the analyte. If this is the cas

27、e, repeat the test two more times. If the high standard deviation is EN 10318:2005 (E) 5 repeatable, there is probably some malfunction in the instrument or the sample used is not homogeneous. Before proceeding, the cause of the problem should be investigated and rectified. 4.1.3 Limit of detection

28、Detection limits are instrument-dependent and matrix-dependent. Consequently, the detection limit for a given analyte cannot be uniquely determined for every available instrument or for the full range of Zn-based alloys considered here. For the purposes of this document, the detection limit for each

29、 analyte will be acceptable if it is equal to or less than one third of the lowest concentration to be determined in the intended applications. The detection limit is determined using the method explained below. a). Select a bulk sample to be used as a blank. The sample composition should be similar

30、 to the coatings to be analyzed in terms of the elemental composition of the matrix. Further, it shall be known to contain less than 0,1 mg kg -1of the analyte. b). Perform ten replicate burns on the blank. For each burn, acquire the emission intensity at the analytical wavelength for 10 s. These ar

31、e the background emission intensity measurements. The glow discharge conditions used should be the same as those that will be used in the analysis of the coated samples. For each measurement, the blank should be preburned at these conditions for a sufficient length of time to achieve stable signals

32、prior to the quantification of the emission intensity. An unsputtered area of the surface of the blank for each individual burn shall be used. c). Compute the detection limit using the following equation: m S DL = 3 where DL is the detection limit; S is the standard deviation of the ten background i

33、ntensity measurements performed in step (2); m is the analytical sensitivity derived from the instrument calibration expressed as the ratio of intensity to mass fraction. If the detection limit calculated is greater than one third of the lowest concentration to be determined in the intended applicat

34、ions, then the test should be repeated. If the second value calculated is also greater than one third of the lowest concentration to be determined in the intended applications, then there may be an instrument malfunction. In such a case, the problem should be investigated prior to analyzing unknown

35、samples. 4.2 Data acquisition Since the principle of determination is based on continuous sputtering of the surface coating, the spectrometer shall be equipped with a digital readout system for time-resolved measurement of the emission intensities. A system with capability for data acquisition speed

36、 of at least 500 measurements/second per spectral channel is recommended, but for the applications within the scope of this standard a speed of 2 measurements/second per spectral channel may be acceptable. 5 Sampling Carry out sampling in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer of th

37、e coated material. In general, the edges of a coated strip should be avoided. The size of the test samples should be suitable for the glow discharge source used. Typically, round or rectangular samples with a width of 20 mm to 100 mm are suitable. EN 10318:2005 (E) 6 6 Procedure 6.1 Selection of spe

38、ctral lines For each analyte to be determined there exists a number of spectral lines which can be used. Suitable lines shall be selected on the basis of several factors including the spectral range of the spectrometer used, analyte concentration range, sensitivity of the spectral lines and spectral

39、 interference from other elements present in the samples. In this type of application, where most of the analytes of interest are major elements in the samples, special attention shall be paid to the occurrence of self-absorption of certain highly sensitive spectral lines. Self- absorption may cause

40、 severe non-linearity of calibration curves at high analyte concentration levels, and such lines should therefore be avoided for the determination of majors. In Table 1, some suggestions concerning suitable spectral lines are given. Table 1 Suggested spectral lines for determination of given element

In particular, check that the entrance slit to the s

44、pectrometer is correctly adjusted, following the procedure given by the instrument manufacturer. This EN 10318:2005 (E) 7 ensures that the emission intensities are measured on the peaks of the spectral lines for optimal signal to background ratio. For further information, see e.g. ISO 14707. The sou

45、rce parameters shall be chosen to achieve three aims: adequate sputtering of the sample, to reduce the analysis time without over-heating the coatings; good crater shape, for good depth resolution; and constant excitation conditions in calibration and analysis, for optimum accuracy. There are often

46、tradeoffs among the three specified aims. Modern DC glow discharge spectrometers usually have provisions for complete control/measurement of the electrical parameters (current, voltage, power), allowing any two of these parameters to be locked to constant values by varying the pressure (active press

47、ure regulation). Older spectrometers often lack an active pressure regulation system, but the pressure can still be adjusted manually to maintain nearly constant current and voltage during calibration measurements. 6.2.2 Constant applied current and voltage The two control parameters are applied cur

48、rent and voltage. Set the power supply for the glow discharge source to constant current constant voltage operation. First set the current and voltage to typical values recommended by the manufacturer. If no recommended values are available, set the current to a value in the range 5 mA to 10 mA for

49、a 2 mm or 2,5 mm anode, 15 mA to 30 mA for a 4 mm anode, 40 mA to 100 mA for a 7 mm or 8 mm anode. If no beforehand knowledge about the optimum current is at hand, it is recommended to start with a value somewhere in the middle of the recommended range, and the voltage at 700 V. Set the high voltage of the detectors as described in 6.2.4. Adjust the discharge parameters as described in 6.2.5, adjusting first the current and if necessary the voltage. 6.2.3 Constant applied current and pressure
