EN 14108:2003 (E)2ForewordThis document (EN 14108:2003) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 307 "Oilseeds, vegetableand animal fats and oils and their by-products - Methods of sampling and analysis", the secretariat of which is heldby AFNOR.This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text orby endorsement, at the latest by October 2003 and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest byOctober 2003.This document has been prepared under Mandate M/245 on Fatty Acid Methylester (FAME) given to CEN by theEuropean Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EUDirective(s).Annex A is informative.According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the followingcountries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland,France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal,Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.SIST EN 14108:2003



EN 14108:2003 (E)31 ScopeThis European standard specifies a method for the determination of sodium contents equal to or greater than1 mg/kg.This method is applicable to fatty acid methyl esters intended for addition to mineral oils.WARNING — The use of this method may involve hazardous equipment, materials and operations. Thismethod does not purport to address to all of the safety problems associated with its use, but it is theresponsibility of the user to search and establish appropriate safety and health practices and determinethe applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.2 PrincipleThe vegetable oil methyl ester sample is diluted with a xylene solution.The sodium content in the sample is directly determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry at thewavelength of 589 nm. The calibration solutions used are prepared from a sodium organometallic salt dissolved ina mixture of xylene and stock oil. The addition of stock oil to the calibration solutions is necessary in order toimprove their storage (the low element contents are unstable) and the linearity of the calibration.WARNING — The ester sample shall be diluted at least 25 times with xylene so that the comparison of themeasurements of the sample solution and standards is valid.NOTEXylene can be replaced by cyclohexane or light petroleum in those laboratories that are not authorized to usearomatic solvents.3 ReagentsUse only reagents of recognised analytical grade, unless otherwise specified.3.1Recommendations for washing glasswareThe glassware used for the preparation of the solutions shall be washed at least twice with an approximate 5 mol/lsolution of hydrochloric acid, rinsed with distilled water then dried in order to avoid sodium pollution.3.2Xylene (mixture of isomers)WARNING — Inflammable and noxious.3.3Stock oil 75 (75 mm2/s)1)3.4Stock oil solution in xylene (200 g/l); dilute in a 200 ml volumetric flask, 40 g of stock oil (3.3) with xylene.Store this solution in a polypropylene bottle.3.5Sodium, solution in oil (5 000 mg/kg)1). Ready-to-use solution of a sodium organometallic salt in stock oil,having a certified titre.3.6Sodium, solutions of intermediary dilutions for the preparation of the set of calibration solutions.
