16、cifies a routine method for determining the organic matter and the ash content of soil improvers and growing media. This method is not applicable to liming materials and preformed materials such as mineral wool slabs and foam slabs. The requirements of the standard may differ from the national legal

17、 requirements for the declaration of the products concerned. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (

18、including any amendments) applies. EN 12579:1999, Soil improvers and growing media Sampling EN 13040:2007, Soil improvers and growing media Sample preparation for chemical and physical tests, determination of dry matter content, moisture content and laboratory compacted bulk density ISO 5725 (all pa

19、rts), Accuracy (truenesss and precision) of measurement methods and results 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 12579:1999 and the following apply. 3.1 organic matter carbon fraction of a sample which is free from water and inorganic subst

20、ances The organic matter for the purposes of this standard is taken as equal to loss on dry incineration at (450 25) C. 3.2 ash residual mineral matter remaining after the destruction of organic matter/material by controlled burning 4 Principle The test portion is dried at (103 2) C, then ashed at (

21、450 25) C. The ash is determined as the residue on ignition. The organic matter is taken to be the loss of mass on ignition. Both are expressed as a percentage by mass of the dried sample. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Drying oven, capable of maintaining a temperature of (103 2) C. 5.2 Electric muffle furnace, ca

22、pable of maintaining temperatures of (450 25) C and (550 25) C. BS EN 13039:2011EN 13039:2011 (E) 5 5.3 Basin, made from fused silica or quartz, of shallow form with a flat bottom, capable of holding a sample of 5 g. Typical dimensions are 70 mm width and 20 mm height. 5.4 Desiccator containing an a

23、ctive drying agent. 5.5 Analytical balance with a scale interval 0,001 g. 6 Procedure 6.1 Test sample Prepare the test sample in accordance with Clause 9 of EN 13040:2007. 6.2 Preparation of the basin Heat the basin (see 5.3) for 16 h in the muffle furnace (see 5.2) at (550 25) C. Cool in the desicc

24、ator (see 5.4). After cooling, weigh to the nearest 0,001 g. Note the mass of the basin m0. NOTE The basin is heated to (550 25) C to ensure that all volatile material is removed prior to the test. 6.3 Determination Spread evenly over the surface of the basin (see 5.3) approximately 5 g of the test

25、sample (see 6.1) and dry in the oven (see 5.1) at a temperature of (103 2) C for 4 h. Allow the basin and contents to cool to room temperature in the desiccator (see 5.4) and weigh to the nearest 0,001 g. Place the basin and contents in the oven (see 5.1) maintained at (103 2) C for a further 1 h. A

26、llow the basin and contents to cool to room temperature in the desiccator (see 5.4) and weigh to the nearest 0,001 g. Repeat the operations of heating, cooling and weighing until the difference between two successive weightings is less than 0,01 g. Note the mass of the basin and dried sample m1. Pla

27、ce the basin and contents in the cool muffle furnace (see 5.2) and raise the temperature over approximately 1 h to (450 25) C. Maintain this temperature for 6 h. Allow the basin and contents to cool to room temperature in the desiccator (see 5.4) and weigh to the nearest 0,001 g. Place the basin and

28、 contents into the muffle furnace (see 5.2) maintained at (450 25) C for a further 1 h. Allow the basin and contents to cool to room temperature in the desiccator (see 5.4) and weigh to the nearest 0,001 g. Repeat the operations of heating, cooling and weighing until the difference between two succe

29、ssive weightings is less than 0,01 g. Note the mass of the basin and sample after ignition m2. 7 Calculation and expression of results The organic matter content, expressed as a percentage by mass of the dried sample, is given by the following equation: 1000121om=mmmmW (1) The ash content, expressed

30、 as a percentage by mass of the dried sample, is given by the following equation: BS EN 13039:2011EN 13039:2011 (E) 6 1000102ash=mmmmW (2) where Wom is the organic matter content, in % m/m; Washis the ash content, in % m/m;m0is the mass of the basin, in g; m1is the mass of the basin and the sample a

31、fter drying in grams; m2is the mass of the basin and the sample after ignition in grams. 8 Precision The repeatability and reproducibility of the organic matter (ash) of the sample measured in 2 separately prepared samples should be in accordance with Table A.1. A summary of the results of an interl

32、aboratory trial to determine the precision of the method in accordance with ISO 5725 is given in Annex A. The values derived from the interlaboratory trial may not be applicable to concentrations and matrices other than those given. 9 Test report The test report shall include the following: a) a com

33、plete identification of the sample; b) a reference to this European Standard; c) the results expressed in accordance with Clause 7; d) any unusual features noticed during the determination; e) details of any operation not specified in the European Standard or regarded as optional, as well as any fac
