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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
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. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).

4 Principle
The method is based on the titration of manganous ion with permanganate ion in neutral pyrophosphate
solution, the manganese(II) being oxidized, the permanganate ion reduced, to a pyrophosphate complex
2+ −
of the +3 state (the stoichiometry ratio of Mn to MnO is 4:1).
4
Decomposition of a test portion by treatment with hydrochloric acid, nitric, perchloric and hydrofluoric
acids. Separation of insoluble residue, and reservation of the filtrate as the main solution. Ignition of
the residue, fusion with sodium carbonate, leaching of the melt with hydrochloric acid and combination
with the main solution. Addition of an aliquot portion of the resulting solution to sodium pyrophosphate
solution, adjustment of the pH to 7,0, and potentiometric titration with potassium permanganate
standard volumetric solution.

5 Reagents
During the analysis, unless otherwise stated, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only
grade 3 water as specified in ISO 3696.
5.1 Sodium carbonate (Na CO ), anhydrous.
2 3
5.2 Hydrochloric acid, ρ = 1,19 g/ml.
5.3 Hydrofluoric acid, ρ = 1,14 g/ml.
5.4 Perchloric acid, ρ = 1,51 g/ml.
5.5 Nitric acid, ρ = 1,40 g/ml.
5.6 Potassium permanganate, degree of purity not less than 99,5 %.
5.7 Sodium carbonate, 50 g/l solution.
5.8 Hydrochloric acid, diluted 1 + 4.
5.9 Saturated sodium pyrophosphate solution. Dissolve 120 g of sodium pyrophosphate
decahydrate (Na P O ·10H O) with 1 000 ml of water. After 24 h, the supernatant is obtained for use.
4 2 7 2
5.10 Potassium-permanganate (KMnO ), recrystallized. Dissolve 250 g of potassium permanganate
4
(5.6) with 800 ml of hot water (90 °C) in a 1 000 ml beaker. Filter the solution under vacuum through a
filter crucible with a sintered glass plate No.3 (6.5). Cool the filtered solution in an ice bath to 10 °C, while
stirring vigorously. Allow the fine-grained precipitate to settle. Then pour out the solution, transfer the
crystalline mass to the crucible with sintered glass plate No.3 (6.5) and place under suction. Repeat the
recrystallization.
After thorough suction, transfer the crystalline mass thus obtained to a glass or porcelain dish and
dry in air in the dark, protecting from dust. When the crystalline mass no longer sticks together when
crushed with a glass rod, dry it at 80 °C to 100 °C for 2 h to 3 h in a drying oven. Then transfer it to a
stoppered brown glass bottle.
Potassium permanganate thus obtained contains 34,76 % (mass fraction) of manganese and is non-
hygroscopic.
5.11 Bromothymol blue indicator, 0,4 g/l solution.
5.12 Manganese, standard reference solution, corresponding to 1 g of Mn per litre. Place 10,00 g of
electrolytic manganese metal flakes (purity not less than 99,95 %) in a 400 ml or 500 ml beaker. Add a
mixture of 50 ml of water and 5 ml of the nitric acid (5.5) and leave for a few minutes until the surface
becomes bright. Wash the treated manganese six times with water, then with acetone, and dry at 100 °C
for 10 min.
Place 1,00 g of the treated electrolytic manganese in a 400 ml or 500 ml beaker, and add 20 ml of sulfuric
acid (ρ = 1,84 g/ ml, diluted 1 + 1) and about 100 ml of water. Boil the solution for a few minutes, cool,
transfer to a 1 000 ml one-mark volumetric flask, dilute to the mark with water and mix.
1 ml of this standard solution contains 1 mg of Mn.

5.13 Potassium permanganate, standard volumetric solution, c (1/5 KMnO ) ≈ 0,1 mol/l. Dissolve
4
3,20 g of potassium permanganate (5.6) in 1 000 ml of water, allow to stand for six days, then transfer
to a brown glass bottle and mix.
Alternatively, commercially available standard solutions of known concentration can be used instead of
standard solutions produced in the laboratory. Variations in concentration shall be taken into account
for the calculation of the results.
5.14 Standardization with the manganese standard reference solution (5.12).
Transfer 50,00 ml of the manganese standard reference solution (5.12) into a 400 ml beaker and
add, while stirring, 150 ml of the saturated sodium pyrophosphate solution (5.9). Adjust the pH of
the solution to 7,0 with hydrochloric acid (5.8) [check the pH using either the pH electrode (6.2) or
the bromothymol blue indicator (5.11)] and titrate with the potassium permanganate solution (5.13)
using the potentiometric titration apparatus (6.1, 6.2, 6.3) until the maximum peak deflection on the
voltmeter is observed.
Carry out a blank test, omitting the standard manganese solution.
