Foreword

Clause 5 and Clause 8 in this standard are mandatory; and the rest are recommended.

The consistent degree between this standard and the standard Sodium Bicarbonate (2002)

of Codex Alimentarius Commission is non-equivalent.

This standard replaces GB1887–1998 Food Additive - Sodium Bicarbonate.

Compared with GB1887–1998, the main changes of this standard are as follows.

- Adjust the indicator parameters correspondingly (3.2 of Edition 1998; Clause 5 of this

standard);

- Add the indicator and test method of content and whiteness of chloride (Clause 5 of

this standard);

- Improve the determination method of dry loss (4.3 of Edition 1998; 6.5 of this edition);

- Improve the determination method of pH value (4.4 of Edition 1998; 6.6 of this

standard);

- Improve the determination method of content of heavy metal (4.6 of Edition 1998; 6.8

of this standard);

- Improve the package and storage (Clause 6 of Edition 1998, Clause 9 of this

standard).

This standard was proposed by China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Association.

This standard shall be under the jurisdiction of Inorganic Chemicals Branch of National

Standardization Technical Committee (SAC/TC 63/SC 1) and National Food Additives

Standard Technical Committee (SAC/TC 11).

Drafting organizations of this standard. Tianjin Research & Design Institute of chemical

m - Value of mass of specimen, and the unit is g.

Take the arithmetic mean value of parallel determination results as the determination

result. The absolute difference of two parallel determination results shall not be more than

0.02%.

6.6 Determination of pH value

6.6.1 Instrument

PH meter. the accuracy is 0.02 pH unit.

6.6.2 Analysis steps

Weight 1.00 g ± 0.01 g of specimen; put it in a 250 mL beaker. Add about 100 mL of water

without carbon dioxide to dissolve the specimen. Determine within 10 min according to the

regulations of GB/T 9724 (since the time when adding the water).

6.7 Determination of arsenic content

6.7.1 Method summary

It is same as Clause 8 of GB/T 5009.76–2003.

6.7.2 Reagents

6.7.2.1 Hydrochloric acid solution. 1+3;

6.7.2.2 Arsenic standard solution. 1 mL of this solution contains 1µg of arsenic.

Weigh 1.00 mL of arsenic standard solution according to the requirements of HG/T 3696.2;

put it in a 100 mL bottle; use water to dilute to the mark; and shake it uniformly. Prepare

this solution before using it.

6.7.2.3 Other reagents are same as Clause 9 of GB/T 5009.76.

Whiteness meter. with the standard whiteness plate and working whiteness plate; the

division value is 0.2 degree;

Standard whiteness plate.

6.12.2 Analysis steps

Use the regularly-calibrated standard whiteness plate to calibrate the working whiteness

plate. Adjust the whiteness meter to the working state; put the specimen in powder dish

uniformly, so as to make the specimen exceed about 2cm of powder dish. Use the smooth

glass plate to cover on the surface of specimen; tightly press the specimen; rotate it

slightly; remove the glass plate. Observe the specimen surface along the horizontal

direction. It shall be free of unevenness, defect, scar and other abnormal conditions.

Put the specimen dish on the instrument platform; determine the whiteness value,

accurate to 0.1 degree. Put the specimen dish on the instrument platform to rotate 90

degrees; determine the whiteness value, accurate to 0.1 degree; then rotate it for 90

degrees; determine the whiteness value, accurate to 0.1 degree. The difference of three
