If salts have crystallised out through storage at lowtemperatures, bring them into solution again by gentle warming and stirring. If the solution has precipitated salts, donot take the sample just from the clear solution or from parts of the solution that contain solid salt.If the vessel has been partially emptied before sampling and contains precipitated salt, it is not possible to obtain arepresentative sample.SIST EN 14016-2:2004



EN 14016-2:2004 (E)53.1.3 Solid saltSamples shall only be taken from the inside of the blocks or of the salt mass (melted, ground in flakes or granules,crystallised). In order to obtain correct representative samples, take several individual samples depending onquantity and type of packaging and combine them to make a cumulative sample. As magnesium chloride attracts aconsiderable amount of moisture from the air, sampling, size reduction and mixing of the individual samples shallbe carried out as rapidly as possible. Store the final samples in tightly stoppered bottles.3.2 Chemical analysis3.2.1 GeneralThis subclause describes reference methods for determining the requirements specified EN 14016-1. If other testmethods are used, it shall be demonstrated that the results obtained with them are equivalent to the results of thereference methods. In cases of dispute, the reference method shall be used.Only analytically pure reagents shall be used. Unless otherwise stated, % means percentage by mass. The term“water” shall be understood to mean distilled water or water of the same degree of purity. “r” always designates thedensity of a liquid at 20 °C. Dilutions are given as a volume sum, e.g. dilute hydrochloric acid 1 + 19 means that 1 part per volume of concentrated hydrochloric acid shall be mixed with 19 parts per volume of water.3.2.2 Determination of water-insoluble constituents3.2.2.1 Apparatus¾ Balance accurate to 0,000 1 g;¾ Platinum or porcelain crucible;¾ Electric oven, adjustable to (1 000 ± 25) °C;¾ Desiccator with drying agent.3.2.2.2 Reagents¾ Silver nitrate, AgNO3;¾ Nitric acid, concentrated, HNO3 (r = 1,40 g/cm3 to 1,42 g/cm3);¾ Silver nitrate solution.Dissolve 0,5 g of silver nitrate in 100 ml of water and add a few drops of nitric acid.3.2.2.3 Procedure and evaluationAdd 200 ml of water to 100 g of aqueous magnesium chloride solution or to 50 g of solid magnesium chloride,weighed to the nearest 0,000 1 g, in a 400 ml beaker (tall form). After 15 min of intensive stirring, filter through afilter paper (medium fast: 140 s filtration time using the Herzberg test system) into a 500 ml volumetric flask. Washthe filtration residue with hot water free from chloride (check with silver nitrate solution). The filtrate is used to de-termine the content of the water-soluble constituents and the pH value. Dry the filter paper and the contents in ared-hot crucible of known mass and reduce to ash. Then heat the crucible for 15 min at (1 000 ± 25) °C. Allow thecrucible and its contents to cool down to room temperature in the desiccator and weigh the residue to the nearest0,000 1 g.

Use 50 ml of the solution as specified in3.2.2 for the determination if the material to be tested is solid magnesium chloride. Dilute the solution with water toapproximately 250 ml and adjust the pH value to 2,0 to 2,5 with dilute hydrochloric acid. Depending on the bariumsulfate content to be expected, add 3 ml to 5 ml of hot barium chloride solution in drops (1 ml of barium chloridesolution to 100 mg of barium sulfate) to the boiling solution whilst stirring vigorously. Boil for a further 15 min to en-sure good precipitation. Allow to stand overnight and filter the precipitate through a filter paper (slow: 1 500 s filtra-tion time according to the Herzberg test system) and wash chloride free with boiling water (check with silver nitratesolution). Transfer the filter paper and the contents to a red-hot crucible of known mass and reduce to ash at full airflow. Then, heat at (800 ± 25) °C to constant mass (± 0,000 5 g). Allow the crucible and its contents to cool down toroom temperature in the desiccator and then finally weigh the residue to the nearest 0,000 1 g.
