CEN/TC 459/SC 2/WG 1 - Routine methods for the analysis of high alloy steel by XRF
To propose and validate routine and referee methods for the analysis of hydrogen, carbon, sulphur, nitrogen and oxygen in steels and ferrous materials. The selection of the topics to be handled are based either on the result of enquiries launched by CEN/TC 459/SC 2 or on proposals made within the WG. This WG aims to prepare documents related with the sample preparation for determination of hydrogen, carbon, sulphur, nitrogen, and oxygen too

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Subcommittee (SC) in CEN operates under a Technical Committee and focuses on a specific subset of the TC's scope. Subcommittees develop standards and technical specifications in their specialized area, reporting to their parent Technical Committee. They may also have working groups for detailed technical work.
This document specifies a spectrophotometric method for the determination of nitrogen in steels.
The method is primarily intended for the determination of total nitrogen in very low contents in non-alloy steels.
It can be used, however, for any low nitrogen ferrous alloy that is soluble in hydrochloric acid provided that the acid-resistant form of silicon nitride is not present. These highly resistant nitrides have been found only in samples of silicon steels manufactured without aluminium addition and then only in sheet material.
The method is applicable to nitrogen contents from 0,000 5 % (by mass) to 0,005 % (by mass).
The precision data of the present method are given in Annex A.
