Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of metallurgical chemical analysis and detection, in particular to a method for analyzing silicon nitride manganese alloy by glass melting X-ray fluorescence spectrum. BACKGROUND

[0002] Silicon nitride manganese alloy is a new type of steelmaking additive, which combines the special properties of silicon nitride and manganese nitride iron. Compared with traditional nitride alloys, it has strong micro-alloying effect and nitriding effect, and is increasingly widely used in the production of alloy steel, silicon steel, HRB400 above threaded steel and other fields.

[0003] The main substances in silicon nitride manganese are manganese nitride, silicon nitride and a small amount of harmful elements such as phosphorus, carbon and sulfur. The existing or reported methods for detecting silicon, manganese and phosphorus mainly include single element analysis, including gravimetric method, oxidation-reduction method, spectrophotometric method and ICP-OES method. The operation is relatively complicated, the pretreatment is difficult, and many chemical reagents are used, which is low in work efficiency and difficult to meet the requirements of batch rapid detection in actual production.

[0004] X-ray fluorescence spectrometry has the advantages of simplicity, rapidity and simultaneous determination of multiple elements. The melting sample preparation technique can effectively eliminate the mineral effect and particle size effect of the sample, and has good precision and uniformity of sample preparation. Artificially prepared calibration samples are considered to be the most accurate sample preparation method in X-ray fluorescence spectrometry. Therefore, the melting sample preparation-X-ray fluorescence spectrometry is widely used in the detection of steel metallurgy, refractory materials and other fields. There is no glass melting X-ray fluorescence spectrometry method for analyzing silicon nitride manganese alloy.

[0005] The method we established is to use sodium carbonate-boric acid mixed flux at a certain temperature to have a good oxidation-reduction effect on silicon nitride manganese. By laying a certain thickness of lithium tetraborate with a relatively high melting point than sodium carbonate-boric acid in the platinum yellow crucible (so that lithium tetraborate acts as a container), the sample is pre-oxidized by increasing the temperature from a relatively low temperature and maintaining a sufficient oxidation reaction time, removing the metal effect and reducing property of the sample, avoiding the problem of corrosion caused by the sample in its metal state and reducing state contacting the platinum yellow crucible. Then, the sample is reheated and melted, and cast into a suitable glass disc for X-ray fluorescence spectrometer measurement. The fluorescence X-ray intensity of the measured elements in the glass disc is measured. According to the calibration curve or equation, the content of the measured elements is obtained.

[0006] The X-ray fluorescence spectrum analysis of silicon, manganese and phosphorus in the silicon nitride manganese alloy is realized by selecting the best pre-oxidation condition, setting the typical sample by using multiple methods, selecting the similar alloy standard sample with suitable content, and setting the standard curve by mixing the standard sample and adding the standard solution, so that the linear range covers the analysis range of the conventional sample and the gradient is uniformly distributed. The test verification result is accurate and reliable, the comparison result with the chemical method is consistent, and the existing detection and analysis and quality control requirements of the silicon nitride manganese can be met.

[0082] Comparative Example 1

[0083] This comparative example is to analyze silicon, manganese and phosphorus in silicon nitride manganese (No. HY002404058071) by chemical wet method and ICP-OES method, which consists of the following steps:

[0084] Step one, determination of silicon content in silicon nitride manganese (reference CSM04141401-2001 Manganese-silicon alloy-determination of silicon content-perchloric acid dehydration gravimetric method):

[0085] Accurately weigh about 0.5g of silicon nitride manganese analysis sample with particle size less than 0.125mm, put the sample into an iron crucible containing 5g of sodium peroxide, mix well, and cover with 1g of sodium perchlorate. Low temperature dissolution at 400℃, heat to 700℃ in a high temperature furnace for 15min, and take out slightly cool. Put the crucible into a beaker containing 100mL of hot water for leaching, and wash the crucible. Add 20mL of hydrochloric acid to the beaker, after the salt is dissolved, add 30-50mL of perchloric acid, heat and evaporate for 10-15min until the perchloric acid smoke is generated. Take out slightly cool, add 10mL of hydrochloric acid and 80ml of hot water, heat to dissolve the salt, and drop a few drops of hydrogen peroxide to reduce the solution to clear.

[0086] Filter the above sample solution while hot with medium speed filter paper, retain the filtrate, and wash the beaker with a rubber head scrubber and hot hydrochloric acid (5+95), wash the filter paper with hot hydrochloric acid (5+95) until there is no yellow color of iron salt, and finally wash the precipitate with hot water until there is no chlorine ion, and check with silver nitrate solution (10g / L). Place the beaker containing the filtrate and washings on the hot plate and evaporate to about 200mL of solution volume. Add 10mL of perchloric acid and follow the same operation as above for the second dehydration and filtration to recover the silicon in the filtrate.

[0087] Put the secondary precipitate together with the filter paper into a platinum crucible, low temperature ashing in a muffle furnace at 1000℃ for 30min, take out slightly cool, place in a desiccator and cool to room temperature, and weigh. Re-calcine to constant weight (m1).

[0088] Add a few drops of sulfuric acid (1+1) and about 5mL of hydrofluoric acid to the platinum crucible, heat and evaporate to dryness, add 2mL of hydrofluoric acid, low temperature heat and evaporate until white smoke of sulfur trioxide is generated, and place in a muffle furnace and calcine for 15-20min. Take out slightly cool, place in a desiccator and cool to room temperature, weigh, and calcine to constant weight (m2). Simultaneously determine the blank to obtain (m3)=(m 01 )-(m 02 ).

[0089] Calculate the silicon content in mass fraction according to the following formula:

[0090]

[0091] In the formula: m1 - the mass of the impure silicon dioxide and platinum crucible before volatilization, g; m2 - the mass of the residue and platinum crucible after volatilization, g; m3 - the mass of the silicon used for the blank test with the test sample, g; m - the mass of the test sample, g; 0.4674 - the coefficient for converting silicon dioxide into silicon.

[0092] Step two, determination of the manganese content in the silicon nitride manganese (refer to CSM 04 14 25 02-2001 Manganese-silicon alloy - Determination of manganese content - Ammonium persulfate oxidation volumetric method):

[0093] About 0.40 g of the silicon nitride manganese analysis sample with a particle size of less than 0.125 mm is accurately weighed in a 500 mL conical flask, 20 mL of nitric acid (1+1), 1 mL of hydrofluoric acid are added, and dissolution is performed on a hot plate, 30 mL of sulfuric acid (1+1) is added, 20 mL of phosphoric acid is added, heating is performed until smoke is generated, and then the sample is removed, slightly cooled, 200 mL of water is added, and salts are dissolved, 10 mL of silver nitrate solution (10 g / L) is added, 40 mL of ammonium persulfate solution (200 g / L) is added, heating and boiling are performed for 10 min, and then the sample is removed and cooled. Titration is performed with a 0.10 mol / L ferrous ammonium sulfate standard titration solution until a light red color is obtained, 3 drops of N-phenyl-p-aminobenzoic acid indicator (2 g / L) is added, and titration is continued until a bright green color is obtained, which is the end point. 0.1 g of a silicon manganese alloy standard sample (number GSB03-2600-2010, Jilin Ferroalloy, Mn 67.96%) is simultaneously weighed and dissolved and titrated according to the sample method, and the manganese content is calculated according to the following formula, expressed as a mass fraction:

[0096] Step three, determination of the phosphorus content in the silicon nitride manganese (ICP-OES method)

[0097] About 0.5 g of the silicon nitride manganese analysis sample with a particle size of less than 0.125 mm is accurately weighed, the test sample is placed in an iron crucible containing 5 g of sodium peroxide, mixed, and covered with 1 g of sodium perchlorate. Low-temperature dissolution is performed at 400°C, and the temperature is increased to 700°C for high-temperature melting in the furnace for 15 min, and then the sample is removed and slightly cooled. The crucible is placed in a beaker containing 100 mL of hot water for leaching, and a small amount of 1+1 hydrochloric acid is used to wash the crucible. 50 mL of 1+1 hydrochloric acid is added to the beaker, and heating is performed to dissolve the salts and residues until the solution is clear, and then the solution is cooled and transferred into a 200 mL volumetric flask, and mixed. 20 mL is taken and diluted to the mark in a 100 mL volumetric flask, and mixed for testing. A blank solution is simultaneously prepared.

[0098] Preparation of working curve: 5 portions of 20 mL blank solution were taken in 100 mL volumetric flask, and 0, 5, 25, 32, 62 ug of phosphorus standard solution was added, corresponding to the P content of 0.00%, 0.010%, 0.050%, 0.064%, 0.124% of 0.5000 g sample in turn, diluted to the mark, and shaken well as the calibration solution. The ICP spectrometer was started and stabilized, and the special operation software equipped with the inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer (ICP-OES) was used to select multiple analysis lines, and the phosphorus (P) element analysis line spectral intensity of the calibration curve solution was measured on the inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer in turn, and the phosphorus content and phosphorus element intensity first equation was obtained, and the best analysis line and analysis parameter (power: 1150W; pump speed: 35r / min; auxiliary gas flow: 0.5L / min; plasma observation height: 12cm; integration time: short wave 15s; cooling gas flow: 12L / min; atomizer gas flow: 0.7L / min; sample flushing time: 30s; atomizer: 1.5mm high salt; phosphorus analysis line: P178.284nm) were selected by observing the spectral peak, background and interference, and the calibration solution was analyzed in turn, and the calibration curve was drawn, and the correlation coefficient of the calibration curve was checked to be >0.999, and the calibration curve was established, and the calibration curve was established. Figure 5 The blank solution and sample solution were introduced for determination, and the phosphorus element content % was directly read.

[0101] In summary, the sodium carbonate-boric acid mixed flux has a good oxidation-reduction effect on the silicon nitride manganese at a certain temperature, the platinum yellow crucible is padded with a certain thickness of lithium tetraborate with a relatively high melting point relative to sodium carbonate-boric acid (so that lithium tetraborate plays a role similar to a container), the silicon nitride manganese sample is pre-oxidized by increasing the temperature from a relatively low temperature and maintaining a sufficient oxidation reaction time, the metal effect and reducing property of the sample are removed, the problem of corrosion caused by the contact of the sample in the metal state and the reducing state to the platinum yellow crucible is avoided, and then the temperature is increased for melting and casting into a suitable glass disc for X-ray fluorescence spectrometer measurement, and the fluorescence X-ray intensity of the measured elements in the glass disc is measured. According to the calibration curve or equation, the content of the measured element is obtained.

[0102] The linear range covers the analysis range of the conventional sample and is uniformly distributed in the form of gradient, which can be applied to the analysis of silicon 30-60%, manganese 0.20-20%, silicon 0.010-0.25% silicon nitride manganese alloy sample. The test verification results are accurate and reliable, consistent with the chemical method, and can meet the detection analysis and quality control requirements of different specifications of silicon nitride manganese samples.

[0103] Although the present specification is described in terms of embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution, and the description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that those skilled in the art can understand.
