Foreword
This European Standard (EN 480-12:2005) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 104
“Concrete and related products”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2006, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the
latest by April 2006.
It has been drafted by Subcommittee 3 (SC 3) of TC 104 "Admixtures for concrete, mortar and grout".
This document is part of the series EN 480 "Admixtures for concrete, mortar and grout – Test methods" which
comprises the following
Part 1 Reference concrete and reference mortar for testing
Part 2 Determination of setting time
Part 4 Determination of bleeding of concrete
Part 5 Determination of capillary absorption
Part 6 Infrared analysis
Part 8 Determination of the conventional dry material content

1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of the alkali (sodium and potassium) content of
admixtures for concrete, mortar and grouts in accordance with the series EN 934.
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 (including any amendments) applies.
EN 196-2, Methods of testing cement – Determination of the chloride, carbon dioxide and alkali content of
cement.
ISO 648, Laboratory glassware – One-mark pipettes.
ISO 1042, Laboratory glassware – One-mark volumetric flasks.
3 Principle
An atomic absorption spectrophotometer is used to measure the sodium and potassium in dilute nitric acid
extracts from admixtures. The extract is nebulised into an air/acetylene flame and the absorption of sodium or
potassium radiation as it passes through the flame is measured. The amount of absorption is directly
proportional to the sodium or potassium content of the extract at low concentrations. The sodium and
potassium contents are separately measured and their sum, proportioned by molecular mass, is reported as
the total equivalent Na O (alkali) content.
