Overview
EN 24501:1993 specifies a photometric peroxide method for the accurate determination of titanium content in hardmetals. This standard, aligned with ISO 4501:1978, is designed for carbide and binder metal powder mixtures free of lubricants, as well as all grades of presintered or sintered hardmetals with titanium levels exceeding 0.2% by mass. The method relies on the formation of a yellow pertitanic acid complex, whose absorbance is measured spectrophotometrically, providing a reliable assessment of titanium concentrations in these materials.
Key Topics
- Scope of Application: Applicable to hardmetal powders and sintered products where titanium exceeds 0.2% (m/m).
- Analytical Principle: Formation of a colored pertitanic acid complex detected by spectrophotometry at approximately 420 nm wavelength.
- Sample Preparation: Samples are crushed to a fine powder passing a 0.18 mm sieve, ensuring uniformity and accuracy.
- Reagents and Apparatus: Use of ammonium hydrogen fluoride, ammonium sulphate, sodium disulphite, citric acid solution, and hydrogen peroxide with ordinary laboratory spectrophotometers or filter photometers.
- Interferences and Corrections: The method accounts for interfering elements such as vanadium and molybdenum, which form colored complexes that can affect absorbance readings; corrections and elimination procedures are detailed.
- Calibration: Calibration curves are created using standard titanium solutions prepared from high-purity titanium metal or titanium dioxide, ensuring precise quantification.
- Result Expression: Titanium content is calculated based on absorbance, sample mass, solution volume, and cell length, and results are reported with defined tolerances.
Applications
- Quality Control in Powder Metallurgy: Ideal for verifying titanium content in powder mixtures before sintering to maintain product consistency.
- Material Certification: Assists manufacturers and quality assurance teams in certifying the titanium percentage in hardmetal components per contractual and regulatory requirements.
- Research & Development: Enables precise monitoring of titanium concentrations for developing new carbide composites and enhanced binder formulations.
- Industrial Inspection: Supports acceptance testing and ongoing manufacturing process control in hardmetal production facilities.
