Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the product. Depending on the raw material and the manufacturing process other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be notified to the user and when necessary to the relevant authorities. Users of this product should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether it is of appropriate purity for treatment of water intended for human consumption, taking into account raw water quality, required dosage, contents of other impurities and additives used in the product not stated in this product standard. Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where these are likely to be present in significant quantities from the current production process and raw materials.

Pesticides and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are not by-products of the manufacturing process. For parametric values of sodium dichloroisocyanurate on trace metal content in drinking water, see [1]. 5 Test methods 5.1 Sampling Observe the general recommendations of ISO 3165 and take account of ISO 6206. Prepare the laboratory sample(s) required by the relevant procedure described in ISO 8213. 5.2 Analysis 5.2.1 Determination of available chlorine (main product) 5.2.1.1 Principle The available chlorine is determined by measuring active chlorine in the sample. The oxidizing chlorine reacts with potassium iodide releasing iodine which is then titrated with sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution in the presence of starch indicator solution. 5.2.1.2 Reagents All reagents shall be of a recognized analytical grade and the water used shall conform to grade 3 in accordance with EN ISO 3696. 5.2.1.2.1 Potassium iodide crystals (KI). 5.2.1.2.2 Glacial acetic acid. 5.2.1.2.3 Sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution, c(Na2S2O3.5H2O) = 0,1 mol/l. Standard volumetric solutions of sodium thiosulfate are commercially available. Alternatively a standard volumetric solution may be prepared by the following procedure: Dissolve 24,8 g Na2S2O3.5 H2O in a 1 000 ml one-mark volumetric flask in about 0,75 l water. After the temperature has equalized make up to the mark with water and mix thoroughly. SIST EN 12932:2015
EN 12932:2015 (E) 10 To standardize: Weigh, to the nearest 0,1 mg, 3,600 g (m) of dry potassium iodate. Dissolve in water in a 1 000 ml one-mark volumetric flask, make up to the mark with water and mix (standard reference solution c(1/6 KIO3) = 0,1 mol/l). Place 200 ml of water in a 500 ml stoppered conical flask, add (2 ± 0,5) g of potassium iodide and stir to dissolve. Then introduce,by means of a pipette, 10,0 ml of sodium thiosulfate solution for standardization, add (15 ± 1) ml of hydrochloric acid solution (diluted 1 + 1 by volume) and (5 ± 1) ml of starch solution (5.2.1.2.4). Titrate immediately with the potassium iodate standard reference solution until the appearance of a blue coloration persisting for at least 30 s occurs . Record the volume (V1) of iodate used. The actual concentration, c, of the sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution (Na2S2O3 . 5H2O), expressed in moles per litre is given by the following formula: VcVc11×=
(1) where c1 is the concentration, expressed in moles per litre, of the potassium iodate standard reference solution [c(1/6 KIO3) = 0,1 mol/l]; V is the volume, in millilitres, of the sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution used for the standardization (V = 10 ml); V1 is the volume, in millilitres, of potassium iodate standard reference solution used in the titration. 5.2.1.2.4 Starch solution, mass fraction1 % . Make a slurry with (1 ± 0,1) g starch and (5 ± 1) ml water. Add (90 ± 5) ml boiling water to the slurry. Stir to dissolve it and cool the solution. This solution needs refrigeration to avoid the decomposition of the starch which results in a vague end point. Keep the solution cool and use it within one week. NOTE Commercial indicators for iodine titration exist and may be used in place of the specified starch solution provided that their efficiency has been previously tested. 5.2.1.3 Apparatus Ordinary laboratory apparatus and glassware. 5.2.1.4 Procedure 5.2.1.4.1 Test portion Weigh, to the nearest 0,1 mg, 0,25 g of the laboratory sample (m0) into a tared stoppered weighing bottle. 5.2.1.4.2 Determination Transfer the test portion to a 200 ml volumetric flask. Add 10 ml of water and 10 ml of glacial acetic acid (5.2.1.2.2), stir for 5 min and then add 100 ml of water and 2 g of potassium iodide (5.2.1.2.1), and mix to dissolve and wait 10 min. Titrate with the sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution (5.2.1.2.3) to a light yellow colour. Add 5 ml of the starch solution (5.2.1.2.4) and continue titration to the disappearance of the blue black colour. Record the volume (V1) of the sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution used. SIST EN 12932:2015
EN 12932:2015 (E) 11 5.2.1.5 Expression of results The chlorine (Cl2) content, C1, expressed as a mass fraction in %, is given by the following formula: 1000035450011×××=mc,VC (2) where V1 is the volume, in millilitres, of the sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution (5.2.1.2.3) used for the titration; m0 is the mass, in grams, of the test portion (5.2.1.4.1); 0,003545 is the mass, in grams, of chlorine (Cl2) corresponding to 1,00 ml of sodium thiosulfate solution, c(Na2S2O3 . 5H2O) = 0,1 mol/l; c is the actual concentration, expressed in moles per litre, of the sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution (5.2.1.2.3). 5.2.1.6 Accuracy The result is accurate to within ± 0,1 %. 5.2.2 Impurities 5.2.2.1 Water 5.2.2.1.1 Principle The water content in sodium dichloroisocyanurate is determined by the mass loss after heating in an oven. The temperature is set at a low level because sodium dichloroisocyanurate can lose chlorine on heating. 5.2.2.1.2 Apparatus 5.2.2.1.2.1 Oven made of aluminium, provided with a means of circulating the air inside. 5.2.2.1.3 Procedure Weigh 10 g of the laboratory sample (m1), to the nearest 0,001g, in a glass evaporating dish (diameter 150 mm). Put it in the ventilated oven at 105 °C for 4 h. Allow to cool in a desiccator and weigh again. SIST EN 12932:2015
EN 12932:2015 (E) 12 5.2.2.1.4 Expression of results The water content (w), expressed as a mass fraction in % is given by the following formula: 100121×−=mmmw (3) where m1 is the mass, in grams, before drying; m2 is the mass, in grams, after drying. 5.2.2.2 Sodium chloride 5.2.2.2.1 General This method applies to products with sodium chloride content in the range of a mass fraction from 0 % to 0,05 %. 5.2.2.2.2 Principle The sodium dichloroisocyanurate dihydrate is acidified and then digested to remove all traces of available chlorine. Sodium is analysed in solution by atomic absorption spectrometry. 5.2.2.2.3 Reagents All reagents shall be of a recognized analytical grade and the water used shall conform to grade 3 in accordance with EN ISO 3696. 5.2.2.2.3.1 Sulfuric acid concentrated, (H2SO4) mass fraction 95 % minimum. 5.2.2.2.3.2 Sodium standard stock solution, c(Na) = 1 000 µg/ml. Weigh 2,542 1 g of sodium chloride that has been previously dried for 1 h at 110 °C. Dissolve with water and make up to the mark with water in a 1 000 ml one mark volumetric flask. Mix well. 5.2.2.2.4 Apparatus Ordinary laboratory apparatus and glassware, together with the following: 5.2.2.2.4.1 Atomic absorption spectrometer equipped with sodium hollow cathode lamp; 5.2.2.2.4.2 Hot plates 5.2.2.2.5 Procedure 5.2.2.2.5.1 Test portion Weigh, to the nearest 0,1 mg, 2,5 g of the laboratory sample (m3) into a tared stoppered weighing bottle. 5.2.2.2.5.2 Determination Transfer the test portion to a 250 ml beaker. Dilute with 25 ml of water. SIST EN 12932:2015
EN 12932:2015 (E) 13 Mix and then add 10 ml of the concentrated sulfuric acid (5.2.2.2.3.1) and place on a hot plate (5.2.2.2.4.2) and boil until the salt begins to precipitate.

2 2 3 2
Standard volumetric solutions of sodium thiosulfate are commercially available.
Alternatively a standard volumetric solution can be prepared by the following procedure:
Dissolve 24,8 g Na S O . 5 H O in a 1 000 ml one-mark volumetric flask in about 0,75 l water. After the
2 2 3 2

Place 200 ml of water in a 500 ml stoppered conical flask, add (2 ± 0,5) g of potassium iodide and stir to
dissolve. Then introduce,by means of a pipette, 10,0 ml of sodium thiosulfate solution for standardization,
add (15 ± 1) ml of hydrochloric acid solution (diluted 1 + 1 by volume) and (5 ± 1) ml of starch
solution (5.2.1.2.4). Titrate immediately with the potassium iodate standard reference solution until the
appearance of a blue coloration persisting for at least 30 s occurs . Record the volume (V ) of iodate used.

provided that their efficiency has been previously tested.
