BS 6870-2.8 is an International Standard that specifies a molybdenum blue spectrophotometric method for the determination of phosphorus in aluminium ores and minerals.
The method is applicable to materials having phosphorus contents, expressed as diphosphorus pentoxide between 0,01 and 5 % (m/m).
Note: The arsenic content of the sample does not affect the determination.
BS 6870-2.8 on molybdenum blue spectrophotometric method for the determination of phosphorus in aluminium ores is useful for:
Aluminium has various applications in different industries such as- construction, packaging, transport, space crafts and marine industry, utensils and wires producing industry.
BS 6870-2.8 helps you with guidance on carrying out the molybdenum blue spectrophotometric method to determine phosphorus in aluminium ores with precision and accuracy.
BS 6870-2.8 provides you with guidance on correct sample preparation, procedure for number of determinations, blank test and check test.
Compliance with BS 6870-2.8 enables manufacturers and suppliers of aluminium ores to achieve the required quality of the product by analyzing the ore in detail for any traces of other elements like phosphorous.
