Compliance overview
Scope and applicability
This standard applies to the inspection and quality control of pH primary reagent potassium dihydrogen phosphate. It is specifically designed for chemical reagent manufacturers and laboratories utilizing this substance as a pH benchmark. It is mandatory for all manufacturers producing this specific pH primary reagent in China. The standard covers the reagent's properties, specifications, testing methods, inspection rules, and packaging requirements, referencing related standards like GB 6851 and GB/T 9724.
Technical requirements
GB 6853-2008 specifies stringent technical requirements for potassium dihydrogen phosphate ($KH_{2}PO_{4}$) used as a pH primary reagent. The core mandatory specifications include the pH(S)II value for mixed phosphate solutions and the precise content of $KH_{2}PO_{4}$, which must be $\geq 99.5\%$. The standard also defines limits for various physical and chemical parameters, including pH value, clarity, loss on drying, and water-insoluble matter. Manufacturers must ensure compliance with these specific chemical purity thresholds. Furthermore, it sets maximum allowable limits for impurities such as chlorides, sulfates, nitrates, ammonium salts, sodium, iron, arsenic, and heavy metals (as Pb). These strict impurity controls are essential for maintaining the reagent's benchmark status, as outlined in GB 6851.
Testing methods
The standard outlines specific testing procedures to verify compliance. Key methods include potentiometric titration for determining the $KH_{2}PO_{4}$ content and flame atomic absorption spectrometry (per GB/T 9723-2007) for sodium content. Other evaluations involve visual turbidity comparisons for chlorides and sulfates, and specific colorimetric methods for iron, arsenic, and heavy metals. Accurate execution of these testing methods is critical for certification.
