ISO 1811-1, Copper and copper alloys — Selection and preparation of samples for chemical analysis — Part 1: Sampling of cast unwrought products ISO 1811-2, Copper and copper alloys — Selection and preparation of samples for chemical analysis — Part 2: Sampling of wrought products and castings NOTE Informative references to documents used in the preparation of this standard, and cited at the appropriate places in the text, are listed in the Bibliography. 3 Principle Dissolution of a test portion in hydrochloric-nitric acid mixture followed, after suitable dilution, by aspiration into an air/acetylene flame of an atomic absorption spectrometer. Measurement of the absorption of the 240,7 nm line emitted by a cobalt hollow-cathode lamp. 4 Reagents and Materials 4.1 General During the analysis, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only distilled water or water of equivalent purity. 4.2 Hydrochloric acid, HCl (ρ = 1,19 g/ml). 4.3 Nitric acid, HNO3 (ρ = 1,40 g/ml). 4.4 Nitric acid solution, 1 + 1 Dilute 100 ml of nitric acid (4.3), in 100 ml of water. 4.5 Cobalt stock solution, 1,000 g/l Co Weigh (1 ± 0,001) g of cobalt (Co ≥ 99,9 %) and transfer it into a 250 ml beaker. Add 20 ml of nitric acid solution (4.4), cover and heat gently until the cobalt is completely dissolved. Boil the solution for a few minutes to expel ni-trous fumes. Cool to room temperature, transfer the solution quantitatively into a 1 000 ml one-mark volumetric flask, dilute to the mark with water and mix well. 1 ml of this solution contains 1,000 mg of Co.

5 4.6 Cobalt standard solution, 0,100 g/l Co Using a pipette, transfer 25,0 ml of cobalt stock solution (4.5) into a 250 ml one-mark volumetric flask. Dilute to the mark with water and mix well. Prepare the solution immediately prior to use. 1 ml of this solution contains 0,100 mg of Co. 4.7 Lanthanum(III) chloride solution (100 g/l) Dissolve 100 g of lanthanum(III) chloride (LaCl3 · 7H2O) in a 600 ml beaker with water and transfer the solution quantitatively into a 1 000 ml one-mark volumetric flask. Dilute to the mark with water and mix well. 4.8 Copper base solution, 20 g/l Cu Weigh 10,0 g cobalt-free copper (Co ≤ 0,000 2 %) and transfer it into a 600 ml beaker. Add 200 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.2) and, cautiously, 200 ml of nitric acid solution (4.4). Heat until the copper is dissolved and then boil until nitrous fumes have been expelled. Cool to room temperature and transfer the solution quantitatively into a 500 ml one-mark volumetric flask, dilute to the mark with water and mix well. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Ordinary laboratory apparatus. 5.2 Atomic absorption spectrometer, fitted with an air/acetylene burner. 5.3 Cobalt hollow-cathode lamp. 6 Sampling Sampling shall be carried out in accordance with ISO 1811-1 or ISO 1811-2, as appropriate. Test samples shall be in the form of fine drillings, chips or millings with a maximum thickness of 0,5 mm. 7 Procedure 7.1 Preparation of the test portion solution 7.1.1 Test portion Weigh (1 ± 0,001) g of the test sample. 7.1.2 Test portion solution Transfer the test portion (7.1.1) into a 250 ml beaker and cover with a watch glass. Add 20 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.2) and 20 ml of nitric acid solution (4.4). Heat gently until the test portion is completely dissolved, then continue heating to the boiling point until the nitrous fumes have been expelled. Wash the cover and the sides of the beaker with water and allow to cool. Transfer the solution to a 100 ml one-mark volumetric flask, add 10 ml of lantha-num(III) chloride solution (4.7), dilute to the mark with water and mix well. Select an aliquot portion from the test portion solution according to the expected cobalt mass fraction and prepare a dilution in a volumetric flask as indicated in Table 1. Add lanthanum(III) chloride solution as shown in Table 1.
