Problems solved by technology

[0003] The method described in this standard has the following deficiencies: (1) The detection cycle is long, and generally skilled technicians need 2 working days to complete a detection
In addition, in the specific test process, it is easy to introduce the uncertainty of the measurement result error due to the lack of proficiency of the test personnel.
(2) The operation steps are relatively cumbersome. After washing the sample with absolute ethanol and acetone for many times, dissolve it in water, filter, transfer, and constant volume, then take a certain sample solution and add phenolphthalein, formaldehyde, EDTA, and NaOH, etc. Then, potassium ions were precipitated with tetraphenylborate sodium ethanol solution, then filtered and washed several times, and finally weighed after drying and constant weight.
[0005] Black powder is generally composed of potassium nitrate, carbon powder and sulfur. It is often used as propellant and bud opening powder for fireworks and firecrackers. Due to the complex matrix effect (including inter-element absorption-enhancement effect and physical- chemical effects), it is impossible to use energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF) to directly measure solid powder samples with complex and changeable matrix background by powder pressing method and melting method
Furthermore, due to the flammable and explosive characteristics of black powder, it is difficult to pre-treat it by tableting or melting
So far, there is no public literature report on the detection of potassium content in black powder by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for measuring the potassium content of black powder. The method comprises the following steps: preparing multiple potassium chloride working solutions with different concentrations, taking an energy dispersion type X-ray fluorescence spectrometer as the detection instrument, assuming a certain amount of samples, adopting a mathematical intensity correction method to establish an analysis method, converting the potassium (K) mass concentrations of prepared potassium chloride working solutions into potassium (K) mass percentage concentrations; recording the fluorescence strength of K for each sample injection, drawing a calibration curve; preparing a sample solution from black powder to be detected, recording the fluorescence strength of K displayed on the instrument, reading the value of mass percentage concentration of K on the calibration curve corresponding to the fluorescence strength, and calculating the content of K. By optimizing the dissolution conditions and parameters of the X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, the matrix effect among elements in the sample can be eliminated or basically eliminated. The provided method has the advantages of simple operation, short detection period, good accuracy, and high precision.
