The invention discloses a method for detecting Fe < 2 + > and Fe < 3 + > in a
zinc plating solution, which comprises the following steps: putting a
zinc plating solution
test solution into a conical flask, then adding
hydrochloric acid and a
copper sulfate solution, heating, taking down and slightly cooling to obtain a
test solution; adding an
isatin indicator into the
test solution, uniformly shaking, then dropwise adding a
titanium trichloride solution until the test solution becomes yellow from blue green, adding excessive
titanium trichloride solution after the test solution is stable, adding
distilled water, cooling, standing, adding
sulfuric acid-
phosphoric acid mixed acid after the test solution is obviously blue, then dropwise adding a
sodium diphenylaminesulfonate indicator solution, and uniformly shaking; titrating with a
potassium dichromate standard
titration solution until the test solution is purple, and calculating to obtain the total
iron content; and measuring the content of Fe < 2 + >, and calculating the concentration component of Fe < 3 + > according to the total
iron content and the concentration component of Fe < 2 + >. The concentration of Fe < 2 + > and Fe < 3 + > can be monitored in real time,
anode passivation is prevented, the
production quality is controlled, the operation is convenient, the test time is short, and the accuracy of an analysis result is high.
