Procedure for Hydrochloric Acid Analysis
Acids and bases are reactive and therefore play an important role in chemical reactions. The standard test methods for the analysis of hydrochloric acid are covered under the ASTM E224 standard method. These test methods provide for the classification of various grades of hydrochloric acid and for the determination of various impurities. Acid strength and impurity levels are important factors in many hydrochloric acid applications.
The following procedures are described in ASTM E224:
Total Acidity Determination: This test procedure involves determining the total hydrochloric acid with an acidity of 27-37%. A weighted sample of the acid is diluted in water and titrated with a standardized 0.5 meq/mL (N) sodium hydroxide solution, using phenolphthalein as the indicator.
Baumé Gravity Determination: A sample of hydrochloric acid is placed in a hydrometer cylinder and when the temperature is constant, the Baumé gravity is read from the glass hydrometer. The Baumé gravity is used to classify various grades of hydrochloric acid.
Sulfated Ash Content Determination: This test method involves the gravimetric determination of non-volatile matter after sulfuric acid treatment. The lower limit of determination for sulfated ash is 0.001%. A weighted sample of acid, to which sulfuric acid has been added, is evaporated, ignited, and the residue is weighed.
Iron Content Determination: This test method is a calorimetric estimation of iron in hydrochloric acid. The lower limit of determination for iron is 0.0001%. The iron is reduced and determined calorimetrically with 1,10-phenanthroline (ortho-phenanthroline), which forms an orange-red complex with ferrous iron. The intensity of the color is measured in a photometer calibrated against standardized solutions.
Color determination: This test method measures the color of hydrochloric acid. The lower limit of measurement for equivalent color is 0.05 mg iron(III) per 100 ml. An arbitrary color scale is used that is based on the color produced by adding known amounts of ferric iron to the hydrochloric acid.
Total sulfur content determination: This test method involves the determination of total sulfur, excluding certain organic sulfur compounds, in hydrochloric acid. The lower limit of determination for total sulfur in terms of sulfuric acid is 0.0002%. A sample of acid is treated with bromine to oxidize any oxidizable sulfur compounds to sulfate. The sulfate is precipitated and weighed as barium sulfate.

ASTM E572 test method covers the analysis of stainless and alloy steels by Wavelength Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (WDXRF). It provides rapid, multi-element determinations with sufficient accuracy to assure product quality.
The ASTM D2674 test is a standard test method for the analysis of sulfochromate etch solutions used in the surface preparation of aluminum. The ASTM D2674 standard specifies a method for determining the efficacy of an etchant used to prepare the surface of aluminum alloys for subsequent adhesive bonding.
An immunological method for quantization of Hevea Natural Rubber (HNRL) proteins using rabbit anti-HNRL serum. Rabbits immunized with HNRL proteins react to the majority of the proteins present, and their sera have the capability to detect most if not all the proteins in HNRL.
ASTM G65 measures the resistance of metallic materials to abrasion using the dry sand/rubber wheel apparatus. The quality, durability, and toughness of the sample are determined using this test. Metallic materials are ranked in their resistance to scratching abrasion under a controlled environment.
ASTM E2141 test methods provide accelerated aging and monitoring of the performance of time-dependent electrochromic devices (ECD) integrated in insulating glass units (IGU). This test helps to understand the relative serviceability of electrochromic glazings applied on ECD.
