The present invention discloses a method for determination of the
antimony content in a
smelting slag, which comprises the following steps: (1) weighing a certain amount of a
slag sample, and placing in a conical flask; (2) adding a certain amount of
potassium sulfate,
potassium fluoride dehydrate, and a
sulfuric acid solution to dissolve the sample, and then heating the
test sample on an electric
hot plate for
decomposition; and after most of the
sulfur is expelled, covering by a
watch glass, and further heating on the electric
hot plate, so that the sample was dissolved completely; (3) taking down the
test sample and cooling a little, adding a certain amount of
hydrazine sulfate and heating continuedly for 10-15 minutes; (4) taking down and cooling the
test sample; adding a certain amount of water, and
hydrochloric acid, mixing uniformly; adding a certain amount of
phosphoric acid, and mixing uniformly in on the electric
hot plate for continue heating, temperature controlled at 80 DEG C to 90 DEG C; (5) taking down the test sample, adding a little
methylene blue and a little
methyl orange, mixing as an indicator; titrating with the
cerium sulfate standard solution; and calculating the content of
antimony ions according to the consumption of the
cerium sulfate standard solution. By using the method, the result is easy to judge, and the determination is rapid and accurate.
