Overview
ISO/FDIS 14720-2:2025 specifies a laboratory method for the determination of sulfur in non‑oxidic ceramic raw materials and ceramic materials using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP‑OES) or ion chromatography (IC) after combustion in an oxygen flow. The method is intended for powdered and granular materials (including carbon and graphite) that are completely oxidized at elevated temperature, or for the fraction of sulfur releasable under these conditions (e.g., adherent sulfur). Typical working limits are sulfur mass fractions ≤ 10 % and ash < 20 %. Practical lower detection limits are approximately 0.5 mg/kg for ICP‑OES and 5 mg/kg for IC.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Principle: Dry sample combusted in oxygen (porcelain crucible, ≈ 1 100 °C); sulfur oxides absorbed in NaOH/H2O2 solution; residue treated and combined where necessary; sulfur determined as sulfate by ICP‑OES (ISO 11885) or IC (ISO 10304‑1).
- Applicability limits: Not suitable for samples with high barium (sulfur in BaSO4 is not detectable by this method) - the document limits barium to < 10 mg/kg.
- Detection limits: Recommended values - 0.5 mg/kg (ICP‑OES), 5 mg/kg (IC).
- Sampling and sample preparation: Procedures for representative sampling, drying and preparation prior to combustion.
- Apparatus and reagents: Combustion device, oxygen supply, ICP‑OES or ion chromatograph, absorption reagents (NaOH, H2O2) and dissolution reagents for ash.
- Interferences and compensation:
- ICP‑OES: spectral interferences (overlapping lines, molecular bands, background) and physical interferences; correction strategies and manufacturer guidance.
- IC: operating parameters and separation considerations.
- Calibration, blank determination and performance: Calibration procedures, blank measurement, precision (repeatability and reproducibility) and calculation/reporting of results.
- Annexes: Examples of combustion devices, operating parameters for IC and ICP‑OES, round‑robin results, uncertainty validation and CRM information.
Applications and users
- Quality control and acceptance testing of refractory and non‑oxidic ceramic materials, including carbon and graphite feedstocks.
- Process control for ceramic manufacturers and raw‑material suppliers to monitor sulfur content and contamination.
- Materials testing and certification laboratories performing compliance testing, R&D teams assessing formulation effects of sulfur, and environmental monitoring where sulfur in ceramic products is relevant.

Testing of ceramic materials — Determination of sulfur in

Part 2:
Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry

oxygen flow
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of sulfur in non-oxidic ceramic raw materials and
ceramic materials, which are completely oxidized at a higher temperature in an oxygen atmosphere, e.g.
carbon and graphite materials.
For materials which are not completely oxidizable under these conditions, it is possible to determine sulfur
that can be released under these conditions, e.g. the adherent sulfur.
This document is applicable for materials with mass fractions of sulfur ≤ 10 % and mass fractions of ash
< 20 %, The defined method is limited for materials with mass fractions of barium < 10 mg/kg, because the
sulfur bonded in barium sulfate is not detectable with this method.
For the lower detection limit of this method, a mass fraction of sulfur of 0,5 mg/kg in the case of inductively
coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) and 5 mg/kg in the case of ion chromatography
(IC) can be considered as a practical value.

For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminology databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:

3.1
sulfur content
Mass fraction of inorganic and organic bound sulfur.
4 Principle
The dried sample is oxidized in a flow of oxygen at a temperature of 1 100 °C using a porcelain crucible.
The resulting sulfur oxides are absorbed in a solution of sodium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide. The
remaining material (ash) is dissolved and combined with the absorption liquid in the case of calcium-
sulfate-containing sample material. The concentration of sulfur in the sample solution shall be determined
by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) in accordance with ISO 11885 or by
ion chromatography (IC) as sulfate in accordance with ISO 10304-1.
5 Interferences
5.1 Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES)
5.1.1 Spectral interferences
The compensation of spectral interferences shall be performed according to the manual of the manufacturer
of the spectrometer.
NOTE 1 Spectral interferences can be caused by:
a) overlapping with the emission line of another element;
b) overlapping with molecular bands;
c) unspecific background (for example scattering, recombinations).
Overlapping of lines can be compensated for by arithmetical correction of the raw data if applicable.
Correction factors shall be determined by measuring at least one undisturbed additional emission line of
the interfering element and considering the relation of the intensity of this emission line to the emission line
which interferes with the analyte element.
In the case of overlapping with molecular bands, an alternative emission line shall be chosen.
NOTE 2 Unspecific background is usually compensated for by measuring the background signal in the surroundings
of the analyte emission line.
5.1.2 Physical interferences
To compensate physical interferences, suitable measures shall be taken.
NOTE Physical interferences occur as plasma interferences or as transport interferences. Both are caused
by a different behaviour of the calibration solution compared to the sample solution based on a different chemical
composition. Plasma interferences are caused by changes in plasma conditions, for example temperature distribution
and electron density, leading to a changed excitation of emission lines. Transport interferences are caused by
differences in physical characteristics of the calibration solution and sample solution, mainly density, viscosity and
surface tension.
Some of the transport interferences can be reduced by using appropriate (peristaltic) pumps. Plasma
interferences as well as transport interferences can be reduced significantly by using suitable reference
lines of a reference element with the same concentration in both the calibration and analyte solution
(internal standard). Other possibilities are to equalize the chemical composition of the calibration and
sample solution as much as possible (matrix matching) or to use a standard addition procedure or a standard
addition calibration procedure instead of the standard calibration procedure.
5.2 Ion chromatography (IC)
To avoid cross-interferences by additional anions, suitable measures shall be taken.
NOTE Anions like chloride, bromide, fluoride, nitrite, nitrate, formiate and acetate in the absorption liquid can
lead to cross-interferences. By using the chromatographic parameters given in Annex B, the sulfate signal usually can
be separated completely from the signals of the other anions.
6 Apparatus
6.1 Combustion device, adjustable to (1 100 ± 20) °C, suitable for oxidizing the sample in an oxygen flow
and suitable to absorb the reaction gases completely.
NOTE For an example of a suitable device see Figure A.1.
6.2 Porcelain boat, unglazed.
6.3 Gas-washing bottles, standard type, nominal volume 100 ml, filled with 25 ml of absorption
solution (7.6 and Annex A).

3.1
3.1 sulfur content
Mass fraction of inorganic and organic bound sulfur.
4 Principle
The dried sample is oxidized in a flow of oxygen at a temperature of 1 100 °C using a porcelain crucible. The
resulting sulfur oxides are absorbed in a solution of sodium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide. The remaining
material (ash) is dissolved and combined with the absorption liquid in the case of calcium-sulfate-containing
sample material. The concentration of sulfur in the sample solution shall be determined by inductively coupled
plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) in accordance with ISO 11885 or by ion chromatography (IC)
as sulfate in accordance with ISO 10304--1.
5 Interferences
5.1 Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES)
5.1.1 Spectral interferences
The compensation of spectral interferences shall be performed according to the manual of the manufacturer
of the spectrometer.
NOTE 1 Spectral interferences can be caused by:
a) a) overlapping with the emission line of another element;
b) b) overlapping with molecular bands;
c) c) unspecific background (for example scattering, recombinations).
Overlapping of lines can be compensated for by arithmetical correction of the raw data if applicable.
Correction factors shall be determined by measuring at least one undisturbed additional emission line of the
interfering element and considering the relation of the intensity of this emission line to the emission line which
interferes with the analyte element.
In the case of overlapping with molecular bands, an alternative emission line shall be chosen.
NOTE 2 Unspecific background is usually compensated for by measuring the background signal in the surroundings
of the analyte emission line.
5.1.2 Physical interferences
To compensate physical interferences, suitable measures shall be taken.
NOTE Physical interferences occur as plasma interferences or as transport interferences. Both are caused by a
different behaviour of the calibration solution compared to the sample solution based on a different chemical
composition. Plasma interferences are caused by changes in plasma conditions, for example temperature distribution
and electron density, leading to a changed excitation of emission lines. Transport interferences are caused by differences
in physical characteristics of the calibration solution and sample solution, mainly density, viscosity and surface tension.
Some of the transport interferences can be reduced by using appropriate (peristaltic) pumps. Plasma
interferences as well as transport interferences can be reduced significantly by using suitable reference lines
ISO/DISFDIS 14720-2:2025(en)
of a reference element with the same concentration in both the calibration and analyte solution (internal
standard). Other possibilities are to equalize the chemical composition of the calibration and sample solution
as much as possible (matrix matching) or to use a standard addition procedure or a standard addition
calibration procedure instead of the standard calibration procedure.
5.2 Ion chromatography (IC)
To avoid cross-interferences by additional anions, suitable measures shall be taken.
NOTE Anions like chloride, bromide, fluoride, nitrite, nitrate, formiate and acetate in the absorption liquid can lead
to cross-interferences. By using the chromatographic parameters given in Annex B,Annex B, the sulfate signal usually can
be separated completely from the signals of the other anions.
6 Apparatus
6.1 6.1 Combustion device, adjustable to (1 100 ± 20) °C, suitable for oxidizing the sample in an
oxygen flow and suitable to absorb the reaction gases completely.
NOTE For an example of a suitable device see Figure A.1.0.
6.2 6.2 Porcelain boat, unglazed.
6.3 6.3 Gas-washing bottles, standard type, nominal volume 100 ml, filled with 25 ml of absorption
solution (7.6 and Annex A).(7.6 and Annex A).
6.4 6.4 Filtration adaptor, with a membrane filter with a pore width of 0,45 µm, connectable to the
outlet of the disposable syringe (6.5).(6.5).
6.5 6.5 Disposable syringe, nominal volume 5 ml.
6.6 6.6 Ultrasonic bath, preferably with a volume of ≥ 1 l and an ultrasonic power of ≥ 150 W.
6.7 6.7 Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer, sequential or
simultaneous spectrometer with a lower wavelength limit of at least 180 nm.
6.8 6.8 Ion chromatograph with a column for anions and conductivity detector, if available
with suppressor technique.
7 Reagents
7.1 7.1 General
Reagents of known analytical grade shall be used, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of
sufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy of the determination.
7.2 7.2 Hydrogen peroxide solution, H2O2, w(H2O2) = 30 %.
7.3 7.3 Sodium hydroxide solution, NaOH, c(NaOH) = 0,001 mol/l.

Analyse des matériaux céramiques — Dosage du soufre
dans les produits et les matières premières céramiques non
oxydes —
Partie 2:
Spectrométrie d'émission optique par plasma à couplage
inductif (ICP-OES) ou chromatographie ionique (IC) après
combustion dans le courant d'oxygène
1 Domaine d'application
La présente partie de l'ISO 14720 définit une méthode de dosage du soufre dans des produits et des matières
premières céramiques non oxydes, qui sont complètement oxydés à haute température dans une atmosphère
d’oxygène, par exemple des matériaux carbonés et des matériaux de graphite.
Pour les matériaux qui ne peuvent être complètement oxydés dans ces conditions, il est possible de doser le
soufre qui peut être libéré dans ces conditions, par exemple le soufre adhérent.
La présente partie de l'ISO 14720 est applicable aux matériaux dont la fraction massique de soufre est ≤ 10 %
et dont la fraction massique de cendres est < 20 %. La méthode définie est limitée aux matériaux dont la
fraction massique de baryum est < 10 mg/kg parce que le soufre lié dans le sulfate de baryum ne peut pas
être détecté par cette méthode.
Pour ce qui est de la limite de détection inférieure, une fraction massique de soufre de 0,5 mg/kg dans le cas
de la spectrométrie d'émission optique par plasma à couplage inductif (ICP-OES) et de 5 mg/kg dans le cas
de la chromatographie ionique (IC) doit être considérée comme la valeur recommandée pour cette méthode.

Pour les besoins du présent document, les termes et définitions suivants s'appliquent.
L'ISO et l'IEC tiennent à jour des bases de données terminologiques destinées à être utilisées en normalisation,

3.1
teneur en soufre
fraction massique de soufre inorganique et organique lié
4 Principe
L’échantillon sec, placé dans un creuset en porcelaine, est oxydé dans un courant d’oxygène à la température
de 1 100 °C. Les oxydes de soufre libérés sont absorbés dans une solution d’hydroxyde de sodium et de
peroxyde d’hydrogène. Si le matériau échantillon contient du sulfate de calcium, la matière résiduelle
(cendres) est dissoute et combinée au liquide d’absorption. La concentration en soufre de la solution
échantillon est déterminée par spectrométrie d'émission optique par plasma à couplage inductif (ICP-OES)
conformément à l’ISO 11885 ou par chromatographie ionique (IC), sous forme de sulfate, conformément à
l’ISO 10304-1.
5 Interférences
5.1 La spectrométrie par plasma à couplage inductif (ICP-OES)
5.1.1 Interférences spectrales
La compensation des interférences spectrales s’effectue conformément aux instructions du fabricant du
spectromètre.
NOTE 1 Les interférences spectrales peuvent être causées par:
a) chevauchement avec la raie d’émission d’un autre élément;
b) chevauchement avec des bandes moléculaires;
c) bruit de fond non spécifique (par exemple dispersion, recombinaisons).
Le chevauchement des raies peut être compensé par correction arithmétique des données brutes, le cas
échéant.
Les facteurs de correction sont déterminés en mesurant au moins une raie d’émission supplémentaire, non
perturbée, de l’élément interférent et en étudiant la relation entre l’intensité de cette raie d’émission et
l'intensité de la raie d’émission qui interfère avec l’analyte.
En cas d’interférence avec des bandes moléculaires, il faut choisir une autre raie d’émission.
NOTE 2 Un bruit de fond non spécifique se compense, normalement, en mesurant le signal de fond autour de la raie
d’émission de l’analyte.
5.1.2 Interférences physiques
Des mesures appropriées doivent être prises pour compenser les interférences physiques.
NOTE Les interférences physiques sont des interférences soit dues au plasma, soit liées au transport. Les deux
types d’interférences ont pour origine une différence de comportement entre la solution d’étalonnage et la solution
échantillon en raison de leur composition chimique différente. Les interférences dues au plasma ont pour origine des
modifications des conditions du plasma, par exemple la distribution de la température et la densité électronique, qui
modifient les conditions d’excitation des raies d’émission. Les interférences liées au transport ont pour origine des
différences de caractéristiques physiques, principalement la densité, la viscosité et la tension superficielle, entre la
solution d’étalonnage et la solution échantillon.
On peut réduire certaines des interférences liées au transport en utilisant des pompes (péristaltiques)
appropriées. Les interférences dues au plasma, comme les interférences liées au transport, peuvent être
réduites de manière significative en utilisant les raies de référence d’un élément de référence présent en
concentration identique dans la solution d’étalonnage et dans la solution échantillon (étalon interne).
D’autres solutions consistent à faire en sorte que la composition chimique de la solution d’étalonnage et
celle de la solution échantillon soient aussi similaires que possible (correspondance matricielle) ou à utiliser
un mode opératoire d’ajout dosé ou un mode opératoire d’étalonnage par ajout dosé à la place du mode
opératoire d’étalonnage normalisé.
5.2 Chromatographie ionique (IC)
Des mesures appropriées doivent être prises pour éviter les interférences croisées d’anions supplémentaires.
NOTE La présence d’anions chlorures, bromures, fluorures, nitrites, nitrates, formiates et acétates dans le
liquide d'absorption peut être à l’origine d’interférences croisées. L’utilisation des paramètres chromatographiques
donnés à l’Annexe B permet normalement de séparer complètement le signal correspondant au sulfate des signaux
correspondant aux autres anions.
6 Appareillage
6.1 Dispositif de combustion, réglable à la température de (1 100 ± 20) °C, adapté pour l’oxydation de
l’échantillon dans un courant d’oxygène et pour l’absorption complète des gaz de la réaction.
NOTE Un exemple de dispositif approprié est donné à Figure A.1.
