Scope

GB/T 15072.15-2008 is the English-translated version of 贵金属合金化学分析方法 金、银、钯合金中镍、锌和锰量的测定 电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱法.

China's national method for determining nickel, zinc and manganese in gold, silver and palladium alloys by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. It is Part 15 of GB/T 15072 and specifies the determination of these three elements in the three precious metal matrices. Covering three matrices in one part is unusual in this series and it is deliberate: the three base elements are the common alloying additions across all the precious metals used in electrical contacts, in brazing fillers and in dentistry, and the analytical problem is the same in each case - a minor constituent in a heavy noble matrix. Nickel hardens and refines the grain and improves wetting. Zinc lowers the melting point, which is what makes a gold or silver brazing alloy usable at a workable temperature, and it also whitens gold. Manganese deoxidises, improves the fluidity of a molten filler and, in some contact alloys, forms the oxide dispersion. All three therefore appear in the specification of the alloy and all three affect whether it performs. What makes the determination demanding is the matrix rather than the analytes: gold, silver and palladium each need a different dissolution, silver precipitates with chloride, palladium forms stable complexes, and all three emit strongly across the spectrum. So the standard sets out the dissolution for each matrix, the analytical lines chosen to avoid the matrix emission, the matrix-matched calibration, the working ranges and the precision. Issued on 31 March 2008 and in force since 1 September 2008, it replaces GB/T 15072.15-1994.
