Aluminij in aluminijeve zlitine - Kemična analiza - Analiza s spektrometrijo optične emisije z induktivno sklopljeno plazmo

Ta evropski standard podrobno opisuje korake za raztapljanje in pripravo kalibracijskih raztopin. Prednostno se uporablja za certificiranje in analizo referenc. Vsi instrumenti, vključno s programsko opremo za preskuševalne laboratorije, se razlikujejo in so predmet sprememb. Za to so določena splošna merila za umerjanje in merjenje.
To metodo je treba uporabljati s prednostnimi referenčnimi materiali, katerih snovi ima bistveno manjšo stopnjo negotovosti, kot je potrebna za ponovljivost preskusnega postopka.

(ICP-OES) for the analysis of aluminium and aluminium alloys.
This method is applicable to the determination of silicon, iron, copper, manganese, magnesium,
chromium, nickel, zinc, titanium, gallium, vanadium, beryllium, bismuth, calcium, cadmium, cobalt,
lithium, sodium, lead, antimony, tin, strontium and zirconium in aluminium and aluminium alloys.

4 Principle
A test portion is dissolved with:
— a sodium hydroxide solution followed by acidification with a mixture of nitric acid and hydrochloric
acid; or
— nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid; or
— a mixture of hydrochloric acid and nitric acid; or
— hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide
according to the alloy type and the element to be determined.
After suitable dilution and, if necessary, addition of an internal reference element, the solution is
nebulized into an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer and the intensity of the
emitted light (including, where appropriate, that of the internal reference element) is measured. The
emission signals on the selected analytical lines (see Annex A) are then compared with those of the
calibration solutions.
NOTE 1 The ranges of application and the accuracy of the method or any alternative steps are validated by the
laboratory. Approximate ranges of application are given in Annex A.
NOTE 2 All instrumentation, including software used in the laboratories, are different and subject to change.
Therefore, only general criteria for calibration and measurement are specified.
5 Reagents
During the analysis, unless otherwise specified, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only
grade 2 water as specified in EN ISO 3696 or equivalent quality.
