Compliance overview
Scope and applicability
This standard applies to working chemical reagents, specifically potassium bromate used in titration analysis. It is essential for manufacturers and laboratories producing or utilizing high-purity benchmark chemicals in analytical testing. This standard is mandatory for the specification and testing of potassium bromate working benchmarks. It replaces the previous version, GB 12594-1990.
Technical requirements
The standard outlines the physical and chemical specifications for potassium bromate, categorizing it as a working benchmark reagent. It mandates strict limits on the primary content purity and defines acceptable ranges for pH value and clarity. Compliance with these chemical parameters is strictly enforced for market access. Furthermore, the standard regulates the maximum allowable limits for various impurities to ensure analytical accuracy. This includes restrictions on drying loss, chlorides, bromides, sulfates, total nitrogen, iron, and heavy metals. The presence of these trace impurities must be carefully controlled during the manufacturing process. Safety and handling are also addressed, noting that the substance can react violently with organic matter or reducing agents. Packaging, storage, and transportation must comply with GB 15346, and labels must clearly indicate the chemical as an oxidizer according to GB 15258.
Testing methods
The standard specifies rigorous testing procedures to verify compliance. Content determination is performed using gravimetric potentiometric titration as outlined in GB 10737-2007. Other key testing methods include visual clarity tests, drying loss measurement via oven drying, and specific colorimetric or turbidimetric methods for impurities like chlorides, sulfates, and heavy metals, referencing standards such as GB/T 9729 and GB/T 9739. Manufacturers must ensure their testing facilities are equipped to perform these precise analytical procedures.
