1、Designation:D117916Standard Test Methods forFluoride Ion in Water1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1179;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates t
2、he 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.Scope*1.1 These test methods2cover the determination of fluorideion in water.The following two t
3、est methods are given:SectionsTest Method ADistillation7 to 13Test Method BIon Selective Electrode14 to 211.2 Test MethodAcovers the accurate measurement of totalfluoride in water through isolation of the fluoride by distillationand subsequent measurement in the distillate by use of the ionselective
4、 electrode(ISE)method.The procedure covers therange from 0.1 to 2.6 mg/L of fluoride.1.3 Test Method B covers the accurate measurement ofsimple fluoride ion in water by means of an ion selectiveelectrode.With this test method,distillation is eliminatedbecause the electrode is not affected by the int
5、erferencescommon to colorimetric procedures.Concentrations of fluoridefrom 0.1 to 1000 mg/L may be measured.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concer
