6.2 Reagents
WARNING — Hydrofluoric acid is corrosive and toxic. The related operations shall be
performed in fume hood. This document does not point out all possible safety problems. It is
the responsibility of the user to take proper safety and health measures and to determine the
applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only water of at least grade 3 purity as defined in
ISO 3696.
1)
6.2.1 Sulfuric acid (H SO), CAS-No 7664-93-9 , diluted 1 + 1.
2 4
Add 1 part by volume of concentrated sulfuric acid, approximately 96 % mass fraction ρ ≈ 1,84 g/ml,
slowly to 1 part by volume of water.
6.2.2 Hydrofluoric acid (HF), CAS-No 7664-39-3, concentrated, approximately 40 % mass fraction
ρ ≈ 1,13 g/ml.
6.3 Apparatus
Use ordinary laboratory apparatus and glassware, together with the following.
6.3.1 Platinum dish.
6.3.2 Muffle furnace, capable of being maintained at (1 000 ± 20) °C.
6.3.3 Infrared evaporator.
6.3.4 Desiccator, containing for example magnesium perchlorate as desiccant.
6.4 Procedure
6.4.1 Number of determinations
Carry out the determination in duplicate.
6.4.2 Test portion
Weigh, to the nearest 0,2 mg, approximately 1 g (m ) of the sample (see Clause 5) into the tared platinum
0
dish (6.3.1).
6.4.3 Determination
Ignite the test portion in the muffle furnace (6.3.2) at (1 000 ± 20) °C to constant mass (this takes
approximately 2 h) and allow to cool in the desiccator (6.3.4). Weigh the test portion again (m ).
1
Wet the ignited test portion in the platinum dish with 2 ml to 3 ml of water, add 1 ml of sulfuric acid
(6.2.1) and 15 ml of hydrofluoric acid (6.2.2) and evaporate to a syrup on the infrared evaporator (6.3.3),
taking care to avoid loss by spitting. Allow to cool and wash the sides down with small quantities of water.
Then add a further 10 ml of hydrofluoric acid and evaporate to dryness. If the evaporation of the silicon
tetrafluoride is not complete, add a further 10 ml of hydrofluoric acid and evaporate to dryness again.
Heat the residue until white fumes are no longer evolved, then ignite for 30 min in the muffle furnace
at (1 000 ± 20) °C. Remove from the furnace, allow to cool in the desiccator and weigh to the nearest
0,2 mg (m ).

7 Determination of aluminium oxide, titanium (IV) oxide and iron (III) oxide
contents by spectrometry
7.1 Principle
A test portion is treated with sulfuric acid and hydrofluoric acid in a platinum dish. The resulting
silicon tetrafluoride is volatized and the residue is dissolved in hydrochloric acid. After diluting with
water to a constant, known volume, the Al, Ti and Fe impurities are determined either by flame atomic
absorption spectrometry (FAAS) or by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-
AES), depending on which instrument is available in the laboratory.
The advantages of the ICP-AES method include its wide dynamic range and multi-element capabilities.
Both methods (FAAS and ICP-AES) are relative analytical techniques. For quantitative analytical
results, both measurement techniques shall be calibrated using standard matching solutions.
7.2 Reagents and materials
Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade except for acids, which shall be ultrapure, and use only
water of at least grade 3 purity according to ISO 3696.
7.2.1 Sulfuric acid (H SO), CAS-No 7664-93-9, diluted 1 + 1.

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).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www .iso .org/

6 Determination of silica content
6.1 Principle
A test portion is ignited, weighed and treated with sulphuric acid and hydrofluoric acid. The silicon
tetrafluoride thus formed is evaporated off and the silica content is calculated from the impurities is
not required.

6.2 Reagents
Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only water of at least grade 3 purity as defined in
ISO 3696.
6.2.1 Sulfuric acid, diluted 1 + 1.
Add 1 part by volume of concentrated sulphuric acid, approximately 96 % (mass fraction) ρ ≈ 1,84 g/ml,
slowly to 1 part by volume of water.
6.2.2 Hydrofluoric acid, concentrated, approximately 40 % (mass fraction) ρ ≈ 1,13 g/ml.
6.3 Apparatus
Use ordinary laboratory apparatus and glassware, together with the following:
6.3.1 Platinum dish.
6.3.2 Muffle furnace, capable of being maintained at (1 000 ± 20) °C.
6.3.3 Infrared evaporator.
6.3.4 Desiccator, containing for example magnesium perchlorate as desiccant.
6.4 Procedure
6.4.1 Number of determinations
Carry out the determination in duplicate.
6.4.2 Test portion
Weigh, to the nearest 0,2 mg, approximately 1 g (m ) of the sample (see Clause 5) into the tared platinum
0
dish (6.3.1).
6.4.3 Determination
Ignite the test portion in the muffle furnace (6.3.2) at (1 000 ± 20) °C to constant mass (this should take
approximately 2 h) and allow to cool in the desiccator (6.3.4). Weigh the test portion again (m ).
1
Wet the ignited test portion in the platinum dish with 2 ml to 3 ml of water, add 1 ml of sulphuric acid
(6.2.1) and 15 ml of hydrofluoric acid (6.2.2) and evaporate to a syrup on the infrared evaporator (6.3.3),
taking care to avoid loss by spitting. Allow to cool and wash the sides down with small quantities of water.
Then add a further 10 ml of hydrofluoric acid and evaporate to dryness. If the evaporation of the silicon
tetrafluoride is not complete, add a further 10 ml of hydrofluoric acid and evaporate to dryness again.
Heat the residue until white fumes are no longer evolved, then ignite for 30 min in the muffle furnace
at (1 000 ± 20) °C. Remove from the furnace, allow to cool in the desiccator and weigh to the nearest
0,2 mg (m ).
