2、of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of chromicoxide in wet blue that has been partly or completely tannedwith chro
3、mium compounds.In general the samples will con-tain chromium content between 1 and 5%,calculated aschromic oxide expressed upon a dry basis otherwise referred toas moisture-free basis(mfb).1.2 This test method is specific in that it applies to a sampleor samples that are the resultant ash following

7、sThe terms and definitions employed withinthis test method are commonly used in normal laboratorypractice and require no special comment.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 The perchloric acid method may be applied to the ashobtained in Test Method D6716.The resultant ash is dissolvedinto acidic solution in
8、 a blend of nitric acid and a preparedoxidation mixture consisting of sulfuric and perchloric acids.Once completed,oxidation of all trivalent to hexavalentchromium is executed by controlled heating.Upon dilution,thechromium is indirectly(back)titrated volumetrically withstandardized thiosulfate usin
9、g released iodine as the titrate.Theperchloric acid method requires less manipulation than proce-dures based on fusion of the ash.However care must be takenbecause of potential hazards in the use of perchloric acid.Theperchloric acid method also tends to give low results.5.Significance and Use5.1 Th
10、e procedure described is specific for chromium in wetblue.Vanadium is the only common interfering element andthis is rarely present in quantity.The precision and accuracy ofthe methods are usually at least as good as the sampling of thewet blue itself,and the accuracy of previously performed testmet
11、hods.5.2 The chromium content of wet blue is related to thedegree of tannage obtained,and hence may be a matter forspecification in the purchase of wet blue.The proceduredescribed provides adequate accuracy for this purpose.6.Apparatus6.1 Analytical Balance,accurate and calibrated to 0.001 g.6.2 Erl
