Condensed phosphates for industrial use (including foodstuffs) — Determination of chloride content —...
Applicable to products having contents expressed in chlorine equal to or more than 30 mg/kg. Potentiometric titration of the chloride ions with standard volumetric silver nitrate solution in a nitric acid-acetone-water medium, at a temperature below 20 0C, using a silver measurement electrode and a colomel reference electrode or a pair of silver-mercury(I) sulphate electrodes. Has also been…
The Standard specifies certain characteristics of the oil. Descriptions and permissible values are given of aspect, colour, odour, relative density at 20/20 °C, refractive index at 20 °C, optical rotation at 20 °C, miscibility with 70 % (V/V) ethanol at 20 °C, acid value, ester value, ester value after acetylation, carbonyl value, and apparent citronellol (rhodinol) content. Most of the values…
Aluminium and aluminium alloys — Determination of titanium — Spectrophotometric chromotropic acid me...
The method is applicable to products having titanium contents between 0,005 and 0,3 % (m/m). However, the method is not applicable completely to alloys having silicon contents higher than 1 % (m/m) (see annex). Specifies principle and procedure of the method, reagents, apparatus, sampling, expression of results and test report.
Ferrosilicon, ferrosilicomanganese and ferrosilicochromium — Determination of silicon content — Grav...
The method is applicable to alloys containing from 8 to 95 % (m/m) silicon. Specifies principle, reagents, apparatus, sample, procedure, expression of results, reproducibility and test report. Warns of perchloric acid fumes.
Ferromanganese and ferrosilicomanganese — Determination of manganese content — Potentiometric method
The method is applicable to alloys containing from 55 to 95 % (m/m) manganese. Specifies principle, reagents, apparatus, sample, procedure, expression of results, reproducibility and test report. Warns of perchloric acid fumes.
Meat and meat products — Determination of nitrogen content (Reference method)
The method consists in digesting of a test portion with concentrated sulphuric acid, using copper(II) sulphate as a catalyst, to convert organic nitrogen to ammonia ions. Then alkalisation, distillation of the liberated ammonia into an excess of boric acid solution, titration with hydrochloric acid to determine the ammonia bound by the boric acid, and calculation of nitrogen content of the sample…
Fruit and vegetable products — Determination of soluble solids content — Refractometric method
The method is particularly applicable to thick products, to products containing suspendes matter and to products rich in sugars. If the products contain other dissolved substances, the results will be only approximate, nevertheless they may be considered conventionally as the soluble solids content. The principle consists in measuring of the refractive index of a test solution at 20 °C, using a…
Ammonium nitrate for industrial use — Determination of water content — Karl Fischer method
Describes a method applicable to products having water contents equal to or greater than 0,05 % (m/m). The principle of determination is based on the reaction of water with a solution of iodine and sulphur dioxide in a pyridine-methanol mixture (Karl Fischer reagent) which is standardized previously by titration of an exactly known mass of water. The end point of the reaction is then determined…
Sulphur for industrial use — Determination of chloride content — Photometric method
Is applicable to products having chloride contents, expressed as chlorine, greater than 2 mg/kg. The principle of determination consists in extracting the chlorides by boilling a test portion in aqueous 2-propanol, followed by a quantitative displacement of the thiocyanate ions of mercury(II) thiocynate by the chloride ions contained in an aliquot portion of the extraction solution, and reaction…
