Fine ceramics (advanced ceramics, advanced technical ceramics) - Methods for chemical analysis of zirconium oxide powders (ISO 23739:2021)

This document specifies methods for the chemical analysis of zirconium oxide powders used as the raw material for fine ceramics.
It stipulates the determination methods of the zirconium, aluminium, barium, calcium, cerium, cobalt, gadolinium, hafnium, iron, magnesium, potassium, silicon, sodium, strontium, titanium and yttrium contents in zirconium oxide powders for fine ceramics. The test sample is decomposed by acid pressure decomposition or alkali fusion. Contents of zirconium and yttrium are determined by using either a precipitation and gravimetric method or an inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectrometry (ICP–OES) method. Contents of aluminium, barium, calcium, cerium, cobalt, gadolinium, hafnium, iron, magnesium, potassium, silicon, sodium, strontium and titanium are determined by using an ICP–OES method.

8 Determination of the zirconium content
8.1 Precipitation and gravimetric method

Zirconium with hafnium in the sample solution is precipitated by adding DL-mandelic acid solution.
After igniting the precipitate, the mass of the zirconium oxide (ZrO ) and hafnium oxide (HfO ) is
2 2
measured. The zirconium content is calculated from the mass of zirconium oxide as well as the hafnium
oxide content.
8.1.2 Reagents
It shall be ascertained that the reagents are of sufficiently high purity to permit their use without
compromising the accuracy of the determination.
8.1.2.1 Water, grade 1 or superior as specified in ISO 3696.

8.1.2.3 DL-mandelic acid.
8.1.2.4 DL-mandelic acid solution (1 M), dissolve 152,15 g DL-mandelic acid (8.1.2.3) in 1 000 ml of
warm water.
8.1.2.5 Washing solution, dissolve 10 g DL-mandelic acid (8.1.2.3) in 200 ml of warm water and 4 ml
of hydrochloric acid (8.1.2.2).
8.1.3 Apparatus and instruments
Use the apparatus and instruments described in 7.3.2 together with the following:
8.1.3.1 Glass volumetric pipette, 50 ml, Class A, according to ISO 835.

8.1.4 Procedure
Transfer 50 ml of the sample solution (7.2.3 or 7.3.3) using a volumetric pipette (8.1.3.1) into a 500-ml
beaker. After adding 25 ml of hydrochloric acid (8.1.2.2) to the beaker, heat the solution to 90 °C on a hot
plate. While stirring the solution, add 50 ml of DL-mandelic acid solution (8.1.2.4). Covering the beaker
