Standard Test Method for Sulfate Basicity in Leather

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
3.1 This test method is used to determine the percent of total chromic oxide that is combined with hydroxyl and may serve as a measure of chrome fixation.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method is intended for use in calculating the sulfate basicity of mineral tanned leather.  
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

This document is not an ASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of an ASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version

1.1 This test method is intended for use in calculating the sulfate basicity of mineral tanned leather.
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility
of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory

2.1 ASTM Standards:
D2807 Test Method for Chromic Oxide in Leather (Perchloric Acid Oxidation)

3. Significance and Use
3.1 This test method is used to determine the percent of total chromic oxide that is combined with hydroxyl and may serve as
a measure of chrome fixation.
4. Apparatus and Reagents
4.1 The apparatus and reagents shall be as described in Test Methods D2807 and D4655.
5. Sampling, Test Specimens and Test Units
5.1 The test specimen shall be as described in Test Methods D2807 and D4655.
5.2 Unless otherwise specified in the detail specifications, two specimens from the composite sample shall be tested.
5.3 The percent basicity of the sample for test shall be the average of the test results obtained from the specimens tested.
6. Procedure
6.1 The chromic oxide shall be determined as described in Test Method D2807. The combined sulfate shall be determined as
described in Method D4655.
7. Calculation of Results
7.1 Express the percent basicity of the specimen according to Schorlemmer’s system. In this system, the percent basicity is the
percent of the total chromic oxide that is combined with hydroxyl. Conversely, the percent acidity is the percent of the total chromic
acid that is combined with sulfate or other acid anions. Percent basicity is therefore 100 % acidity.
