Scope

1.1 These test methods cover the analyses usually required on commercial soda ash (sodium carbonate). 1.2 The analytical procedures appear in the following sections: Sections Total Alkalinity, Titrimetric 8 – 15 Sodium Bicarbonate, Titrimetric 17 – 24 Loss on Heating, Gravimetric 26 – 32 Moisture, Calculation 34 – 38 Sodium Chloride, Titrimetric 40 – 46 Sodium Sulfate, Gravimetric 48 – 54 Iron, Photometric 56 – 64 Sieve Analysis 66 – 72 1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.4 In determining the conformance of the test results using this method to applicable specifications, results shall be rounded off in accordance with the rounding-off method of Practice E29. 1.5 Review the current Safety Data Sheets (SDS) for detailed information concerning toxicity, first aid procedures, handling and safety precautions. 1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific hazards statements are given in Section 6. 1.7 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
