1、Designation:D396901(Reapproved 2012)Standard Test Method forZirconium in Paint Driers by EDTA Method1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3969;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.
2、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 titrimetric determination ofzirconium in zirconium driers used in the coatings industry andutilizes the disod
3、ium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic aciddihydrate(EDTA).1.2 This test method is limited to the determination of thezirconium content of a liquid zirconium drier that does notcontain other drier elements.The test method is not applicableto drier blends and does not differentiate hafnium fromzircon
4、ium.1.3 All cations that can be titrated with EDTAin acid mediainterfere and must not be present in the sample.1.4 This test method has been tested for concentrations of 6and 12%zirconium,but there is no reason to believe that it isnot suitable for higher or lower zirconium concentrations,provided s
5、pecimen size is adjusted proportionately.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the us
