Foreword ISQ (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national Standards bodies (ISO member bedies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Esch 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, govern- mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International Standards by the ISQ Council. They are approved in accordance with ISO procedures requiring at least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting. International Standard ISO 4937 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17, S teel. Users should note that all International Standards undergo revision from time to time and that any reference made herein to any other International Standard implies its latest edition, unless othervvise stated. 0 International Organization for Standardkation, 1986 Printed in Switzerland SIST EN 24937:1997
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 49374986 IE) Steel and iron - Determination of chromium content - Potentiometric or visual titration method 1 Scope and field of application This International Standard specifies a method for the deter- mination of chromium in steel and iron by potentiometric or visual titration. The method is applicable to chromium contents between 0,25 and 35 % (mlm). If vanadium is present, the visual titration is applicable only to test portions containing less than 3 mg of vanadium. 2 References ISO 377, Wrought steel - Selection and preparation of samples and test pieces.

Oxidation of chromium in an acid medium to chromium(Vl) by ammonium peroxydisulfate in the presence of silver sulfate. Reduction of manganese(VII) by hydrochloric acid. Reduction of chromium(VIf by ammonium iron(ll) sulfate stan- dard solution. In the case of potentiometric detection, determination of the equivalence Point by measurement of the potential Variation when the ammonium iron(ll) sulfate Standard Solution is being added. In the case of visual detection, titration of the excess am- monium iron(ll) sulfate by potassium permanganate Standard Solution which also acts as the indicator. 4 Reagents During the analysis, unless otherwise stated, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only distilled water or water of equivalent purity, free from oxidizing or reducing activity. 4.1 Urea. 4.2 Perchlorit acid, Q approximately 1,67 g/ml. 4.3 Hydrofluoric acid, Q approximately l,l5 g/mI. 4.4 Orthophosphoric acid, Q approximately 1,70 g/ml. 4.5 Nitrit acid, Q approximately 140 g/ml. 4.6 Hydrochlorit acid, Q approximately 1,19 g/ml, diluted 1 + 1. 4.7 Hydrochlorit acid, Q approximately 1,19 g/ml, diluted 1 + 10. 4.8 Sulfuric acid, Q approximately 1,84 g/ml, diluted 1 + 1. 4.9 Sulfuric acid, Q approximately IJ34 g/ml, diluted 1 + 5. 4.10 Sulfuric acid, ,Q approximately 1,84 g/ml, diluted 1 + 19. 4.11 Silver sulfate, 5 g/l Solution. 4.12 Ammonium peroxydisulfate [(NH&S208], 500 g/l Solution.

Heat until dense white fumes are given off, cool and then add 100 ml of water. 1 ml of this Standard reference solution contains 1,733 mg of Cr. To accelerate the dissolution of a test Portion which has a high Silicon content, a few drops of hydrofluoric acid (4.3) may be added (see note 1). 5 Apparatus Ordinary laboratory apparatus (see the note) and 7.3.1.2 Chromium and/or nicke1 alloyed steel and iron 5.1 Potentiometric titration device, which permits a dif- ference in potential to be measured with platinum-saturared calomel electrodes. Place the test Portion (7.1) in a 600 ml beaker, add 25 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.6) and heat to dissolve, then oxidize with 15 ml of nitric acid (4.5). If dissolution proves to be particularly difficult, add 1 to 2 ml of hydrofluoric acid (4.3). Then add 20 ml of sulfuric acid (4.8) and 10 ml of orthophosphoric acid (4.4), and heat until dense white fumes appear. NUTE - All volumetric glassware shail be class A, in accordance with ISO 385/1, ISO 648 or ISO 1042 as appropriate. After cooling, add a further 15 ml of nitric acid (4.5) to the fum- ing solution, if necessary making further additions, until the carbides have completely decomposed. Continue fuming to remove completely oxides of nitrogen then cool and add 100 ml of water (see note 1). 6 Sampling Carry out sampling in accordance with ISO 377 or the appropriate national Standards for iron. 7.3.1.3 Steel containing tungsten Place the test Portion (7.1) in a 600 ml beaker, add 25 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.6) then 20 ml of sulfuric acid (4.8) and 10 ml of orthophosphoric acid (4.4) and heat until efferves- cence has ceased. lf dissolution proves to be particularly dif- ficult add 1 to 2 ml of hydrofluoric acid (4.3).

Cover the beaker with a watch-glass and boil for 10 min (see note 2). Then, break down the permanganic acid by adding to the solu- tion, after it has been brought to the boil, firstly 15 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.7), then, after about 3 min, if necessary a further amount of hydrochloric acid (4.7), drop by drop, until the violet colour disappears (see note 3).
