Warning: the personnel who uses this Part shall have hands-on
experience in formal laboratory work. This Part does not address all
possible security issues. It is the responsibility of the user to take
appropriate safety and health measures and to ensure compliance with
the conditions which are set by the relevant national regulations.
1 Scope
This Part specifies the determination of silicon content in ferromanganese,
ferromanganese-silicon, nitrogen-bearing ferromanganese, manganese metal
and electrolytic manganese by the molybdenum blue photometric method,
silicon potassium fluoride titrimetric method and perchloric acid dehydration
gravimetric method.
This Part applies to the determination of silicon content in ferromanganese,
ferromanganese-silicon, nitrogen-bearing ferromanganese, manganese metal
and electrolytic manganese metal. The determination range (mass fraction):
0.001% ~ 30.00%. Method I: molybdenum blue photometric method, suitable
for the determination of silicon content in manganese metal and electrolytic
manganese metal, with a determination range (mass fraction) of 0.001% ~
0.60%; Method II: silicon potassium fluoride titrimetric method, suitable for the
determination of silicon content in ferromanganese-silicon, with a determination
range (mass fraction) of 12.00% ~ 30.00%; Method III: perchloric acid
dehydration gravimetric method, suitable for the determination of silicon content
in ferromanganese, ferromanganese-silicon, manganese metal and electrolytic
manganese metal, with a determination range (mass fraction) of 0.50% ~
30.00%.
3.5.3.3 Place the test solution (3.5.3.2) in a 50 °C water bath; when the
temperature in the bottle is 50 °C, add 10 mL of ammonium molybdate solution
(3.2.3) while shaking; use a small amount of water to rinse the ammonium
molybdate that is attached to the inner wall of the bottle; keep the temperature
in a 50°C constant temperature water bath for 5 minutes; shake occasionally;
remove the running water to cool to room temperature.
3.5.3.4 Add 15 mL of hydrofluoric acid (3.2.2); mix well; add 5 mL of ammonium
ferrous sulfate solution (3.2.4) within 30 seconds; mix well; use water to dilute
to the mark; mix well; let stand for 15 minutes.
3.5.3.5 Transfer part of the test solution (3.5.3.4) into the corresponding quartz
cuvette; use the blank solution with the sample as a reference; measure its
absorbance at the wavelength of 810 nm of a spectrophotometer; find out the
corresponding silicon content from the working curve.
3.5.4 Drawing of calibration curve
Pipette 0, 2.00 mL, 4.00 mL, 6.00 mL, 10.00 mL, 12.00 mL of silicon standard
solution (3.2.5.1) into a set of 100 mL volumetric flasks; respectively add 9 mL
of sulfuric acid (3.2.1); use water to dilute to 40 mL; perform the following
according to the analysis steps 3.5.3.3 ~ 3.5.3.5; use the reagent blank as a
reference; measure its absorbance at a wavelength of 810 nm of a
spectrophotometer. Take the silicon content as the abscissa and the
absorbance as the ordinate to draw the working curve.
3.6 Result calculation
Calculate the silicon content (mass fraction) in the sample according to Formula
(1):
Where:
m1 -- the silicon content that is found from the working curve, in milligrams (mg);
r -- test solution fraction ratio;
m -- sample mass, in grams (g).
3.7 Allowable difference
The difference of analysis results between laboratories shall not be greater than
the allowable difference that is listed in Table 2.
0.202 4 -- the mass of the potassium hydrogen phthalate that is equivalent to 1
mL of sodium hydroxide standard titration solution [c(NaOH) = 1.000
mol/L], in grams (g).
4.3 Instruments
Common laboratory equipment that is used in the analysis.
4.4 Sample taking
Take samples according to regulations of GB/T 4010; the sample shall pass
through a 0.125 mm sieve.
4.5 Analysis steps
4.5.1 Sample mass
Weigh 0.200 g of sample, to the nearest 0.0001 g.
4.5.2 Blank test
Carry out a blank test along with the sample.
4.5.3 Determination
4.5.3.1 Place the sample (4.5.1) in a 250 mL plastic beaker; add 30 mL of nitric
acid (4.2.4); dropwise add 10 mL of hydrofluoric acid (4.2.2); shake gently until
the sample is completely decomposed [if the sample is insoluble, add a few
drops of hydrogen peroxide (4.2.3)]; drive out nitrogen oxides. Add 10 mL of
urea solution (4.2.5); shake until no bubbles are generated; let stand for 1 min
~ 2 min.
4.5.3.2 Add 2 g of potassium fluoride (4.2.1); stir to dissolve; add a little filter
paper pulp; let it stand in a water bath below 25°C for 30 minutes. Use medium-
speed filter paper and a plastic funnel to filter; use a potassium nitrate-ethanol
solution (4.2.6) less than 25 °C to quickly wash the plastic beaker, filter paper
and precipitate, until the test paper does not appear blue when the washing
liquor drops onto the Congo red test paper (4.2.8).
4.5.3.3 Transfer the precipitate and filter paper into a 500 mL conical flask; add
100 mL of warm neutral water (4.2.7); shake well; shake the filter paper to
pieces. After heating the test solution to boiling, add 6 ~ 8 drops of
phenolphthalein solution (4.2.9); use sodium hydroxide standard titration
solution (4.2.10) to titrate to the end point. Add 2 drops of phenolphthalein
solution (4.2.9); continue to use sodium hydroxide standard titration solution
(4.2.10) to titrate, until the reddish color does not fade as the end point.
