1、Designation:D280717Standard Test Method forChromic Oxide in Leather(Perchloric Acid Oxidation)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2807;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A numb
2、er in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of chromicoxide
3、in leathers that have been partly or completely tannedwith chromium compounds.In general the samples will con-tain between 1 and 5%chromium,calculated as chromicoxide.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This s
4、tandard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.See Section 7 forspecific sa

9、 acid method also tends to give low results.4.Significance and Use4.1 The procedure described is specific for chromium inleather.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
10、 of theleather itself.4.2 The chromium content of leather relates to the degree oftannage obtained,and hence may be a matter for specificationin the purchase of leather.The procedure described providesadequate accuracy for this purpose.5.Apparatus5.1 Potentiometric Titration EquipmentThis is require
