Potassium hydroxide for industrial use — Determination of chlorides content — Photometric method
Applicable to products having contents, expressed as chlorine, between 2 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg. For contents exceeding 50mg/kg the method specified in ISO 992 shall be used. The principle consists in quantitative displacement of the thiocyanate (SCN- ) ions of the mercury(II) thiocyanate by the cloride (Cl- ) ions contained in the test portion. Reaction of the thiocyanate ions with iron(III) nitrate…
Potassium hydroxide for industrial use — Determination of chlorides content — Mercurimetric method
The method is applicable to products the chloride content of which is greater than 25 mg/kg. The procedure is based on titration of the chloride ions with mercury(II) nitrate in the presence of diphenylcarbazone as indicator. - Replaces ISO Recommendation R 992-1969.
