DIN EN 15979:2011 Testing of ceramic raw and basic materials - Direct determination of mass fractions of impurities in powders and granules of silicon carbide by OES by DC arc excitation; German version EN 15979:2011
This European Standard describes the method for the analysis of mass fractions of the impurities Al, B, Ca, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Ni, Ti, V and Zr in powder- and grain-shaped silicon carbide of ceramic raw and basic materials. This application can also be extended to other metallic elements and other similar non-metallic powder- and grain-shaped materials such as carbides, nitrides, graphite, carbon blacks, cokes, carbon, as well as a number of further oxidic raw and basic materials after appropriate testing.
This testing procedure is applicable to mass fractions of the impurities mentioned above from approximately 1 mg/kg up to approximately 3000 mg/kg, after verification. In some cases it may be possible to extend the range up to 5000 mg/kg depending on element, wavelength, arc parameter, and sample weight.
