Iron ores — Determination of phosphorus content — Titrimetric method
ISO 2599:2003 specifies a titrimetric method for the determination of the phosphorus content of iron ores, using hexaammonium heptamolybdate (ammonium molybdate). This method is applicable to a concentration range of 0,10 % (m/m) to 5,0 % (m/m) of phosphorus in natural iron ores, and iron ore concentrates and agglomerates including sinter products. This International Standard provides a quality control method for the determination of phosphorus by titration, however, the method cannot be used for referee purposes.

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 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. 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 document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 2599 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 102, Iron ore and direct reduced iron, Subcommittee

Iron ores — Determination of phosphorus content — Titrimetric
method
WARNING — This International Standard may involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment.
This International Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this International Standard to establish appropriate health
and safety practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

3 Principle
The test portion is decomposed by treatment with hydrochloric, nitric and perchloric acids. The insoluble
residue is filtered and the filtrate is reserved as the main solution.
The residue is ignited, treated with sulfuric and hydrofluoric acids to remove silicon dioxide, fused with sodium
carbonate and the melt is leached with water. The alkaline solution is filtered and the residue is discarded.
1) This method has been tested internationally on samples containing phosphorus contents ranging from 0,03 % (m/m) to
1,50 % (m/m).
The filtrate from residue treatment is acidified using hydrochloric acid, iron(III) chloride is added and the
phosphorus is collected by precipitation with ammonia solution. The precipitate is dissolved in hydrochloric
acid and combined with the main solution. Hydrobromic acid is added and evaporated to fumes of perchloric
acid to expel arsenic. The salts are dissolved in water and the solution, or an aliquot, is neutralized with
ammonia solution and the acidity is adjusted using nitric acid. The solution is cooled to 20 °C and vanadium is
reduced by iron(II) sulfate. Ammonium molybdate is added to the cold solution and the yellow precipitate of
ammonium molybdophosphate is collected by filtration.
The precipitate is washed free of acid and dissolved in a slight excess of sodium hydroxide, the excess being
titrated with nitric acid.
For test portions containing more than 18 mg of titanium, a modified procedure is used (see 7.4.1.2).
