Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 2597-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 102, Iron ore and direct reduced iron,
Subcommittee SC 2, Chemical analysis.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 2597-1:1994), which has been editorially
revised.
ISO 2597 consists of the following parts, under the general title Iron ores — Determination of total iron
content:
ISO 2597-1:2006(E)
Introduction
This part of ISO 2597 has been updated to correct errors in the presentation of statistical information in the
previous edition.
WARNING — This part of ISO 2597 may involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This
part of ISO 2597 does not purport to address all of the safety issues associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the user to establish appropriate health and safety practices and determine the
applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1 Scope
This part of ISO 2597 specifies a titrimetric method for the determination of the total iron content of iron ores,
using potassium dichromate after reduction of the trivalent iron by tin(II) chloride.
The method is applicable to total iron contents between 30 % (mass fraction) and 72 % (mass fraction) in
natural iron ores, iron ore concentrates and agglomerates, including sinter products.
NOTE An equivalent International Standard that does not use mercury(II) chloride is ISO 9507:1990, Iron ores —
Determination of total iron content — Titanium(III) chloride reduction methods.
A suggested procedure for removal of mercury from the waste solutions before discharge to effluent drains is
given in Annex C.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 2596, Iron ores — Determination of hygroscopic moisture in analytical samples — Gravimetric, Karl
Fischer and mass-loss methods
ISO 3696, Water for analytical laboratory use — Specification and test methods
ISO 7764, Iron ores — Preparation of predried test samples for chemical analysis
ISO 2597-1:2006(E)
3 Principle
The test portion is decomposed by one of the following methods:
a) For samples containing not more than 0,05 % (mass fraction) vanadium, 0,1 % (mass fraction)
molybdenum or 0,1 % (mass fraction) copper: treatment with hydrochloric acid, the residue being filtered
off and ignited, treatment with hydrofluoric and sulfuric acids to remove silica, and fusion with potassium
pyrosulfate.
The melt is dissolved in hydrochloric acid, iron is precipitated with ammonia solution, the precipitate is
re-dissolved in hydrochloric acid and this solution is added to the main solution.
b) For samples containing more than 0,05 % (mass fraction) vanadium: fusion with alkali, the melt being
leached with water and filtered, the filtrate being discarded. The residue is dissolved in hydrochloric acid.
Trivalent iron in the solution is reduced using tin(II) chloride. Excess reductant is oxidized with mercury(II)
chloride.
The reduced iron is titrated with potassium dichromate solution, using sodium diphenylaminesulfonate as the
indicator.
4 Reagents
During the analysis, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade, and only water that complies with
grade 2 of ISO 3696.
4.8 Hydrofluoric acid, ρ = 1,13 g/ml, [40 % (mass fraction)], or ρ = 1,19 g/ml, [48 % (mass fraction)].
Heat for 30 min at 500 °C, or confirm that the water content is not more than 1 % (mass fraction) (by heating a
test portion for 30 min at 500 °C and measuring the loss in mass).
Store this reagent in a dry environment and do not use after it has begun to agglomerate.
