Foreword
This Standard is drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009.
This Standard replaces GB/T 5173-1995 "Surface active agents and detergents
- Determination of anionic-active matter by direct two-phase titration procedure".
Compared with GB/T 5173-1995, the main technical changes of this Standard
are as follows.
- ADD the determination of alpha-sodium alkenyl sulfonate (AOS) (see 7.2);
- Delete the selective use of ethidium bromide (see 4.8.1.3 of the 1995
edition);
- Modify the recommended sampling mass of test portion (see 7.1; 7.1 of the
1995 edition);
- Modify the constant volume of test portion (see 7.2; 7.2 of the 1995 edition);
- Modify the formulas for calculating the anionic-active matter content (see
8.1; 8.1 of the 1995 edition);
- Delete sodium lauryl sulfate (see 4.5 of the 1995 edition);
- Delete the preparation and calibration process of benzethonium chloride
and acidic mixed indicator solution; ADD reference standards (see 4.6 and
4.8 of the 1995 edition).
This Standard uses the redraft rules to modify and adopt ISO 2271.1989
"Surface active agents - Detergents - Determination of anionic-active matter by
manual or mechanical direct two-phase titration procedure".
Compared with ISO 2271.1989, the structure of this Standard is adjusted as
follows.
- Delete the sections on automatic titration instrument of 5.5 and 5.6 of ISO
2271.1989;
- ADD "5.5 Beaker";
- ADD the calculation formula expressed in mmol/g in 8.1;
- Merge 4.2 and 4.3 in ISO 2271.1989 into 4.2 in this Standard. Modify 4.4 in
ISO 2271.1989 into 4.3 in this Standard. Delete 4.5 Sodium lauryl sulfate
in ISO 2271.1989.Delete preparation and calibration process of 4.6
benzethonium chloride and 4.8 acidic mixed indicator solution; ADD the
reference standards. Modify 4.6 in ISO 2271.1989 into 4.5 in this Standard.
Modify 4.7 in ISO 2271.1989 into 4.4 in this Standard;
- ADD "e) Test date and test personnel" in Clause 9 "Test report".
There are technical differences between this Standard and ISO 2271.1989.The
clauses involved in these differences have been marked by a vertical single line
(|) at the blank of the outer margin. Appendix A gives a list of corresponding
technical differences and their causes.
This Standard also makes the following editorial changes.
- Modify standard name;
- Delete informative Appendix A;
- Modify precautions for the use of chloroform (see 4.1; 4.1 of the 1995
edition).
This Standard was proposed by China National Light Industry Council.
This Standard shall be under the jurisdiction of National Technical Committee
272 on Surface Active Agents and Washing Supplies of Standardization
Administration of China (SAC/TC 272).

Surface active agents - Detergents - Determination of
anionic-active matter content - Direct two-phase
titration procedure
1 Scope
This Standard specifies the direct two-phase titration procedure for
determination of anionic-active matter content of anionic surface active agents
and detergents.
2 Normative references
The following documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
For the dated references, only the editions with the dates indicated are
applicable to this document. For the undated references, the latest edition
(including all the amendments) are applicable to this document.
3 Principle
In a two-phase medium of water and chloroform, in the presence of an acidic
mixed indicator solution, use a cationic surface active agent (benzethonium
chloride) to titrate, to determine anionic-active matter.
4 Reagents
Unless otherwise specified, the analysis is conducted using the confirmed
analytically pure reagents. Water is Grade III water in accordance with GB/T
6682.
5 Apparatus
General laboratory instrument and the following.
6 Preparation of samples
In accordance with the provisions of Clause 4 of GB/T 13173-2008, prepare
and store test samples.
7 Procedures
Warning — Due to the toxicity of chloroform, the corresponding operation
of direct two-phase titration shall be performed in a fume hood or a well-
ventilated environment.
8 Expression of results
For the same sample, using the same test method, in the same laboratory,
measure by the same operator using the same instrument in a short time
interval, the difference between the results of two consecutive determinations
shall not exceed 1.5% of the mean.
9 Test report
The test report shall include the following.
