ISO 6588-1:2020 pdf free.Paper, board and pulps一Determination of pH of aqueous extracts
Since the extraction in this document is performed with distilled or deionised water, the pH-value measured will sometimes be different (e.g. for fully bleached pulp) from the pH-value measured under mill process conditions in which various types of process waters, e.g. chemically treated river water containing electrolytes, are used. In such cases, ISO 29681 should be used instead, as it is specifically applicable to bleached pulps from virgin fibres and to pulp samples having a low ionic strength for which the pH value will give more realistic results related to mill conditions than those obtained with this document.
Glassware of chemically resistant glass, flasks with ground-glass joints, stoppers, beakers and fritted glass filter. All glassware shall be cleaned with an acid cleaning solution, without the use of soap or detergent, and they shall be carefully rinsed with water (5.1) and allowed to dry before use.
The sampling procedure to be followed depends on the particular circumstances in each case. If the analysis is being made to evaluate a lot or a consignment of pulp, paper or board, the sample shall be taken in accordance with ISO 7213 or ISO 186, as relevant. If the analysis is made on another type of sample, report the origin of the sample and, if possible, the sampling procedure, and ensure that the specimen taken in 7.1 is representative of the sample received.Wear clean protective gloves when handling the sample.
NOTE Some gloves are powdered to prevent them from sticking to one another, and this powder can cause contamination of the sample.
Operate the pH-meter in accordance with the manufacturer’s instruction. Wash the electrodes with water (5.1); allow the water to drain from the electrodes, but do not wipe them. Calibrate the pH-meter (5.2), at a temperature between 20 °C and 25 °C, with two different buffer solutions (5.2) having pH-values such that the pH of the extract is between the pH-values of the buffer solutions. The first buffer solution shall be chosen so that the pH-value of the buffer solution is in the same region as the electric zero point of the pH-meter (usually = 7). The reading for the second buffer solution should agree with its correct value to within 0,1 pH-unit.ISO 6588-1 pdf free download.
