Appendix B
(Normative)
Test method for precipitation of metals and organic compounds
B.1 Principle
Use simulated tap water containing sodium bicarbonate and sodium
hypochlorite, to soak the part of the sample surface, which is in contact with
water. Use the equipment, which meets the test requirements, to measure the
concentration of metal elements and organic compounds, in the soaking liquid.
The measured concentration value is standardized; then compared with the
limit specified by the standard, after data calculation.
B.2 Sample
For testing the precipitation of metal harmful substances, it requires taking 3
samples of the same specification and model. For the number of test samples,
which are used for testing the precipitation of organic compounds, it must be
that the total volume of the water surfacing is not less than 1 L. When the
following conditions are met, the tested samples can represent various other
types of products:
a) The materials have the same alloy, composition or formula;
b) The design and production process are similar;
c) Has the largest water surface area to volume ratio.
B.3 Reagents
B.3.1 Distilled water or deionized water (abbreviated as pure water): the
conductivity is not more than 0.1 μS/cm.
B.3.2 Sodium hypochlorite (solution) (analytical pure, effective chlorine content
not less than 5%).
B.3.3 Anhydrous sodium bicarbonate (analytical pure).
B.3.4 Concentrated nitric acid (excellent grade pure).
B.3.5 Concentrated hydrochloric acid (excellent grade pure).
B.3.6 Standard solution of the measured element.
B.4 Preparation of soaking solution for test
B.4.1 0.025 mol/L chlorine-containing stock solution
Take 7.3 mL of sodium hypochlorite solution (B.3.2). Use pure water to dilute it
to 200 mL. Store it in a closed brown bottle, which has a stopper. Store it in the
dark. This solution is a chlorine-containing stock solution. A fresh solution needs
to be prepared every week.
Take 1.0 mL of the chlorine-containing stock solution. Use reagent water to
dilute it to 1 L. Immediately analyze the concentration of total residual chlorine
(ρ).
In order to prepare a solution, which has a residual chlorine concentration of 2
mg/L, it is necessary to add the chlorine-containing stock solution to the test
soaking solution, the volume of which is calculated according to formula (B.1):
Where:
V - The volume of the chlorine-containing stock solution to be added, in
milliliter (mL);
V1 - The volume of the soaking liquid, which is used in the test, in liters (L);
ρ - The mass concentration of total residual chlorine in the chlorine-
containing solution, in milligrams per milliliter (mg/mL).
B.4.2 0.4 mol/L sodium bicarbonate solution
Dissolve 33.6 g of anhydrous sodium bicarbonate in pure water. Use pure water
to dilute it to 1 L. Mix well. A fresh solution needs to be prepared every week.
B.4.3 Soaking liquid for test
Prepare 1 L of soaking solution: Take 25 mL of 0.4 mol/L sodium bicarbonate
solution (B.4.2) AND an appropriate amount of chlorine-containing stock
solution (B.4.1). Use pure water to dilute it to 1 L. Use the 0.1 mol/L hydrochloric
acid to adjust the pH value, to make the pH of the solution be (8.0 ± 0.5); the
alkalinity (calculated as CaCO3) is (500 ± 25) mg/L; the inorganic carbon is (122
± 5) mg/L; the residual chlorine is (2 ± 0.5) mg/L.
Prepare the soaking liquid, which is actually needed, according to the above
ratio.
B.5 Sample washing and stabilization
Use tap water to rinse the sample, for 15 minutes. Then use pure water to rinse
< 72 - The stabilization time before the start of sample processing and soaking (less
than 72 h);
2 - The time interval between pouring and replacing the soaking liquid is 2 h;
16 - Keep for 16 h (overnight);
16 - Keep 16 h for testing;
c - Collection of the soaking solution that was kept for 16 h the day before;
64 - Keep for 64 h (weekend).
Figure B.1 -- Extraction sequence diagram
B.7 Collection and storage of water samples
After the soaking is complete, collect and store the water sample in the following
manner:
a) For the water sample, which is used to test the content of metal harmful
substances, collect and put it in a Teflon bottle, which has a lid. Add
concentrated nitric acid, to make the pH value of the solution < 2. Shake
it uniformly. Store at room temperature. Measure it within 14 days.
b) For the water sample, which is used for testing the content of volatile
organic compounds, collect 40 mL and put it into a brown glass sample
bottle, which has a PTFE lid, for the purpose of testing volatile organic
compound. Add 25 mg of ascorbic acid to each 40 mL sample, to remove
the residue in the water sample. Then carefully add two drops of 1:1
hydrochloric acid, to each 40 mL sample bottle, to adjust the pH to less
than 2.
c) For the water sample, which is used for testing the content of semi-volatile
organic compounds, collect about 1 L into a brown glass sample bottle,
which has a PTFE lid. Add 40 mg of sodium sulfite to the sample, to
remove the residual chlorine from the water sample (it shall be stirred OR
vibrated when adding, until the sodium sulfite is dissolved). Use the 1:1
hydrochloric acid, to adjust the pH of the sample to less than 2.
The samples in b) and c) shall be chilled in the dark OR kept in a refrigerator,
at a temperature not higher than 4 °C, from after collection to before extraction.
Extraction shall be completed within 7 days; analysis shall be completed within
14 days.
