3 Theory
Dissolve the chromium (VI) in the textile dyeing and finishing auxiliaries with buffer solution, filter the extraction liquid formed via color development reaction and determine it using a liquid chromatograph equipped with a ultraviolet detector or a diode array detector, then quantify it with the external standard method.
4 Reagents and materials
Unless otherwise specified, only analytically pure reagent and Grade 3 water (defined in GB/T 6682) shall be adopted.
4.1 Phosphoric acid solution: dilute 700 mL of phosphoric acid (H3PO4, ρ=1.71 g/mL) to 1,000 mL with water.
4.2 Diphenylcarbazide solution: dissolve 10 g of 1, 5-diphenylcarbazide (C13H14N4O) in 100 mL of acetone and add 1 drop of glacial acetic acid.
Note: The solution shall be stored at 4℃ in a brown bottle, with the validity period being two weeks.
4.3 Buffer solution: dissolve 22.8 g (to the nearest of 0.01 g) of potassium phosphate, dibasic (K2HPO4·3H2O) in 1,000 mL of water, adjust the pH to 8.0±0.1 with phosphoric acid (4.1), and deoxidize it with argon or nitrogen.
4.4 Potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7), guaranteed reagent: dried to constant at (120±2)℃.
4.5 Chromium (VI) standard stock solution, 1,000 mg/L: weigh 2.829 g (to the nearest of 0.0001 g) of potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) (4.4), dissolve it with water, then transfer, wash and dilute it to the scale into a 1,000-mL volumetric flask.
4.6 Chromium (VI) standard working solution, 10 mg/L: pipette 1 mL of chromium (VI) standard stock solution into a 100-mL volumetric flask, and dilute to the mark with potassium phosphate dibasic buffer solution (4.3).
4.7 Nitrogen (or argon): with a purity of ≥ 99.998% (volume fraction);
4.8 C18 column or glass or polypropylene specimen tube filled with suitable reversed phase material.
5 Apparatus
5.1 High performance liquid chromatograph: equipped with ultraviolet detector or diode array detector.
5.2 Balance: with a sensibility of 0.1 mg.
5.3 Ultrasonic cleaner: with an operating frequency of 40 kHz.
5.4 Gas-guide tube.
5.5 Flowmeter.
5.6 Conical flask with stopper: 250 mL and 150 mL.
5.7 Filtering membrane: 0.22 μm, inorganic phase.
6 Determination procedures
6.1 Preparation of specimen solution
Pipette 100 mL of the buffer solution (with the air removed) (4.3) into a 250-mL conical flask with stopper, insert the gas-guide tube (5.4) (which must not touch the liquid surface), and introduce the nitrogen into the conical flask (4.7) at the flow rate of (50±10)mL/min for 5min. Weigh 1 g (to the nearest of 0.0001 g) of sample into the conical flask, cover the ground-glass stopper, shake it well, and place it into the ultrasonic cleaner (5.3) to extract for 30 min.
Note 1: The ultrasonic cleaner is not heated and the extraction is carried out at room temperature.
The C18 column (4.8) should be washed with 5 mL of methanol first, then with 5 mL of Grade 3 water, and then rinsed with 10 mL of buffer solution (4.3). After extraction, the solution in the conical flask shall be filtered through the C18 column (4.8) into a 150-mL conical flask. Pipette 5 mL of the filtrate into a colorimetric tube, add 1 mL of phosphoric acid solution (4.1) and 1 mL of diphenylcarbazide solution (4.2), and dilute to 10 mL with buffer solution (4.3). Let it stand for (15±5) min at room temperature then filter it through a 0.22 μm filtering membrane for instrument analysis.
Note 2: If the sample concentration is too high, it is recommended to dilute it to the appropriate concentration before subjecting it to instrument analysis.
