Standard Test Methods for Chemical Analysis of Zinc Yellow Pigment (Zinc Chromate Yellow)

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
3.1 This test method has been developed to standardize the chemical analysis of zinc chromate yellow pigment and to provide alternate methods of analysis for chromium and zinc.
SCOPE
1.1 These test methods cover procedures for the chemical analysis of the pigment known commercially as “zinc yellow” or “zinc chromate yellow.”  
1.2 The analytical procedures appear in the following order:    
Sections  
Moisture and Other Volatile Matter  
7  
Combined Water  
8  
Chromium:  
Dichromate Method  
9 – 11  
Thiosulfate Method  
9, 12, and 13  
Zinc:  
Hydroxyquinoline Method  
9, 14, and 15  
Ferrocyanide Method  
9, 16, and 17  
Alkaline Salts  
18 and 19  
Sulfates  
20 and 21  
Chlorides  
22 and 23  
Matter Insoluble in Dilute Acetic
Acid

1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be considered the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.  
1.4 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
