1、Designation:C 1226 93(Reapproved 2006)Standard Test Method forSoluble Chlorides in Asbestos1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 1226;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number
2、 in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon(e)indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the leaching out of the solublechlorides in asbestos and the volumetric determination ofchloride ion in the leachate.1.2
3、 WarningBreathing of asbestos dust is hazardous.Asbestos and asbestos products present demonstrated healthrisks for users and for those with whom they come into contact.In addition to other precautions,when working with asbestos-cement products,minimize the dust that results.For informa-tion on the
4、safe use of chrysoltile asbestos,refer to“Safe Useof Chrysotile Asbestos:A Manual on Preventive and ControlMeasures.”21.3 This standard 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
5、safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.See 1.2 for aspecific hazard warning.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:3D 1193 Specification for Reagent WaterD 2590 Test Method for Sampling Chrysotile AsbestosD 2946 Terminology for Asbestos

10、nsthat foster chloride ion corrosion.6.Interferences6.1 Zinc,lead,nickel,ferrous,and chromous ions affect thesolubility of the chloride ion and the end point color,but theydo not reduce the accuracy of the titration when present inconcentrations up to 100 ppm.6.2 Copper is tolerable up to 50 ppm.6.3
11、 Titration in the presence of chromate ion requires anindicator with intensified background color,such as alphazur-ine,and prior reduction for concentrations above 100 ppm.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C17 onFiber-Reinforced Cement Products and is the direct responsib
