A kind of method for testing the content of
alumina in
ilmenite sand, comprising the following steps in sequence: (1) adding
sodium hydroxide,
ilmenite sand sample into
nickel crucible, cooling after sample fusion; (2) adding
distilled water to leach the fused block, then adding
ethanol to obtain leaching solution; then diluting the leaching solution with water, filtering to obtain filtrate; (3) transferring the filtrate into a triangular flask, then adding EDTA solution, adding
potassium sodium tartrate solution, shaking uniformly; boiling, cooling; (4) adding
hexamethylenetetramine solution into the triangular flask, then adding dimethyl
phenol orange indicator; adding 1+1
hydrochloric acid solution, adjusting to yellow solution, excess 2-3 drops; adding
zinc acetate
standard solution, until the solution is purple red, not reading; (5) adding
sodium fluoride, boiling after cooling; adjusting according to the color of solution, then titrating with
zinc acetate
standard solution. The present application can accurately measure the content of
alumina in
ilmenite sand, and the operation is relatively simple, fast, and the test cost is relatively low.
