Inspection of bauxite for import and export - Determination
of Fe2O3, TiO2, SiO2, CaO, MgO content - Inductively
coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry
1 Scope
This Part of SN/T 0481 specifies inductively coupled plasma atomic emission
spectrometry (hereinafter referred as ICP-AES), the method to determine ferric oxide
(Fe2O3), titanium dioxide (TiO2), silicon dioxide (SiO2), calcium oxide (CaO),
magnesium oxide (MgO) content in bauxite.
This Part is applicable to the determination of Fe2O3, TiO2, SiO2, CaO, MgO content
in bauxite. See Table 1 for the determination range of each element.

3 Method summary
The specimen uses lithium tetraborate as the flux. After it is melted at a high
temperature, use hydrochloric acid to extract. After the volume is set constant, use ICP-
AES instrument to determine the emission spectrum intensity of the test element in the
test solution. Find corresponding concentration from the working curve. Calculate its
content.
4 Reagents
Unless otherwise specified, it shall only use the confirmed analytically-pure reagents
and distilled water or equivalent-pure water in the analysis.
4.1 Graphite powder: Powder, 100 meshes, carbon content ≥ 98.5%.
4.2 Argon: ≥99.99%.
4.3 Hydrogen peroxide (ρ=1.10g/mL).
4.4 Hydrochloric acid (ρ=1.19g/mL).
4.5 Hydrochloric acid solution (1+9).
4.6 Hydrochloric acid solution (1+3).
4.7 Lithium tetraborate.
4.8 Lithium tetraborate solution (10g/L): Weigh 1.0g of lithium tetraborate (4.7). Add
50mL of hydrochloric acid solution (4.5). Slightly heat it to make it dissolved. Use
water to set the volume constant into a 100mL volumetric flask. Mix well for use.
4.9 Aluminum standard solution (10mg/mL): Accurately weigh 1.0000g of high purity
aluminum (99.99%) into a 200mL beaker. Add 40mL of hydrochloric acid solution (4.6).
Boil it till it is clear. If it is insoluble, it may add a certain amount of hydrogen peroxide
(4.3). Cool down. Transfer it into a 100mL volumetric flask. Use water to dilute to the
scale. Mix well. 1mL of this solution contains 10mg of aluminum.
4.10 Iron, titanium, calcium, and magnesium standard stock solutions (1mg/mL).
4.11 Silicon standard stock solution (0.5mg/mL).
4.12 Mixed standard solution: Respectively pipette 40.00mL of silicon standard stock
solution (4.9.3); 15.00mL of iron, titanium standard stock solutions (4.9.2) each;
5.00mL of calcium, magnesium standard stock solutions (4.9.2) each -- into 100mL
volumetric flasks. Then add 10.00mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid (4.4). Set the
volume constant. Mix well for use. See Table 2 of the content of each element.
tweezers to take the molten beads out. Use a brush to remove the graphite powder
attached to the surface. Put the molten beads into the beaker. Add 40mL of hydrochloric
acid solution (4.6). Place it in the (55 ± 5)°C constant temperature water bath oscillator.
Immerse till the molten beads are completely dissolved. Filter into a 250mL volumetric
flask. Set the volume constant. Mix well for ICP-AES determination.
8.4 Spectral measurement
8.4.1 Instrument optimization
Start the ICP-AES instrument. Adjust the working conditions and measurement
parameters of the instrument to the best state (see Annex A).
8.4.2 Drawing of working curve
Introduce the standard solution series (8.3.1) into the plasma in sequence. Measure the
spectral signal intensity of each analysis line. Use the strength as Y-axis, the
concentration (µg/mL) of each test element in each standard solution as X-axis, to
obtain the working curve of each element. Perform linear regression. Calculate the
correlation coefficient. The correlation coefficient shall meet the requirements of 5.4.4.
8.4.3 Determination of test solution
Introduce the blank solution (8.2) and the test material solution (8.3.2) into the plasma.
Respectively measure the spectral intensity of each test element. According to the
working curve, obtain the concentration of each corresponding component. If the
number of samples is large, the standard sample can be inserted into the sample
measurement gap as a control sample, so as to control the accuracy of the analysis result.
9 Calculation of analysis result
Calculate the content of oxides of each element according to formula (1), expressed in
mass fraction:
Where,
w1 - The mass fraction of the oxides of each test element, %;
c - The concentration of each test element in the test material solution, in micrograms
per milliliter (µg/mL);
c0 - The concentration of each test element in the blank solution, in micrograms per
milliliter (µg/mL);
