Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 15349 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17, Steel, Subcommittee SC 1,
Methods of determination of chemical composition.
ISO 15349 consists of the following parts, under the general title Unalloyed steel — Determination of low carbon
content:
� Part 1: Infrared absorption method after combustion in an electric resistance furnace (by peak separation)
[Technical Report]
� Part 2: Infrared absorption method after combustion in an induction furnace (with preheating)
� Part 3: Infrared absorption method after combustion in an electric resistance furnace (with preheating)
[Technical Report]

Unalloyed steel — Determination of low carbon content —
Part 2:
Infrared absorption method after combustion in an induction
furnace (with preheating)
1 Scope
This part of ISO 15349 specifies an infrared absorption method after combustion in an induction furnace for the
determination of the low carbon content in unalloyed steel.
The method is applicable to carbon contents between 0,000 3 % (m/m) and 0,010 % (m/m).

3Principle
Preheating of a test portion at low temperature and combustion of a test portion with accelerator at a high
temperature in an induction furnace in a current of pure oxygen. Transformation of carbon into carbon dioxide
and/or carbon monoxide.

ISO 15349-2:1999(E)
Measurement of infrared absorption of the carbon dioxide or carbon dioxide/carbon monoxide evolved from steel
and carried by a current of pure oxygen.
Calibration graph is established using sucrose or calcium carbonate.
4 Reagents
During the analysis, unless otherwise stated, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only grade 3
water as specified in ISO 3696.
4.1 Water, free from carbon dioxide.
Boil water for 30 min, bubble with oxygen (4.2) while cooling to room temperature for 15 min. Prepare just before
use.
4.2 Oxygen, 99,95 % (m/m) minimum.
An oxidation catalyst [copper(II) oxide or platinum] tube heated to a temperature above 450 �C shall be used prior
to a purifying unit, when the presence of organic contaminants in the oxygen is suspected.
