6.2 Measurement of pH
6.2.1 Apparatus
6.2.1.1 pH meter (Orion, Model 601, or equivalent)
6.2.1.2 pH standard solutions
6.2.2 Measurement — Adjust pH meter indicator by
using standard solutions. Remove the electrodes with
de-ionized water and dry with clean filter paper. Place
the electrodes into the molding compound extract.
Allow the meter to equilibrate. Record the pH value.
6.3 Ion Specific Electrodes — Ion-specific electrodes
may be used for the determination of chloride, bromide,
sulfate, and phosphate. A separate specific electrode for
each ion is required and, in some instances, a reference
electrode may be necessary to complete the test.
Individual standards are needed for each ion tested.
Methodology recommended by the manufacturer for
each ion specific electrode should be closely followed.
Measured concentrations corrected for blank value
should be compared to the known standards in the
range 0.1–100 ppm. Chloride and bromide are usually
determined, using a solid state single electrode.
Determination of sulfate and phosphate ions may
require use of additional buffers and a titration.
6.4 Determination of Sodium, Potassium, and
Antimony Using Atomic Absorption
6.4.1 Apparatus — Atomic absorption
spectrophotometer.
6.4.2 Standard Solutions
6.4.2.1 Sodium standard solutions 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6,
0.8, 1.0 ppm.
6.4.2.2 Potassium standard solutions 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6,
0.8, 1.0 ppm.
6.4.2.3 Antimony standard solution 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6,
0.8, 1.0 ppm.
6.4.3 Measurement — Set up instrument according to
manufacturer’s recommendation. Analyze water extract
based on the calibration curve prepared using standard
solutions to obtain concentration of ion of interest.
6.4.4 Calculation
6.5 Determination of Chloride, Bromide, Phosphate,
Sulfate, Sodium, and Potassium by Ion
Chromatography
6.5.1 Method Principle — Ion chromatography is a
form of liquid chromatography used in the separation
and quantitation of ions. A filtered aliquot of sample is
injected into an Ion chromatograph. The sample is
pumped by the eluent stream through two (2) different
ion exchange columns: a guard column, which serves to
protect the separator column from residual particulate
matter and retain certain organics, and the separator
column, the primary function of which is to separate
analyzed ions based on their affinity for the exchange
sites of the resin. Both guard column and the separator
column are packed with identical low capacity anion
exchanger (anion analysis) or cation exchange (cation
analysis). The separated ionic species then pass to a
detector module consisting of a chemical suppressor
device and a conductivity cell. The suppressor device is
used to reduce background conductivity of the eluent to
a low, or negligible level, and convert analyte anions
into their acid form or analyte cations into their
hydroxide form. Thus, separated and modified ionic
species are detected using an electrical conductivity
cell. Anions are identified based on their retention time
compared to the known standards. Quantitation is
accomplished by measuring the peak height or area, and
comparing it to a calibration curve generated from
known standards.
NOTE 5: For recommended practice for ion chromatography
analyses, see instrument manufacturer’s literature and ASTM
D 4327.
6.5.2 Interferences
6.5.2.1 High levels of organic acids may be present in
molding compound extracts. This may interfere with
inorganic anion analysis. Two (2) common species,
formate and acetate, elute between fluoride and
chloride. This may be minimized by modifying
instrument set-up.
6.5.2.2 Certain amines may interfere with the
determination of sodium or potassium. This may be
minimized by using different instrument set-ups.

6.5.3 Apparatus
6.5.3.1 Ion chromatograph (Dionex or equivalent). The
chromatograph shall be equipped with an injection
valve, a 50–100 µ l sample loop, and shall be set up with
the following:
1. Guard Column
2. Separator Column
3. Chemical Suppressor Device
4. Conductivity Detector
6.5.4 Reagents
6.5.4.1 Water Purity — Water used in the preparation
of eluents, standards, and sample extraction shall
conform to ASTM D 1193.
6.5.4.2 Reagent Purity — Reagent grade chemicals
should be used in all tests.
6.5.4.3 Eluent/Regenerant Solutions — Should be
prepared in accordance with instrument manufacturer’s
instructions recommended for each column set.
6.5.4.4 Stock Solutions — Stock solutions (1 ml - 1 mg
- 1 ppm ion of interest) should be prepared according to
accepted practice, and as described in the instrument
manufacturer’s instructions.
6.5.4.5 Calibration Standards — Prepare a blank and
at least three (3) different calibration solutions
containing combination of anion/cations. These
solutions must be prepared in volumeric flasks (see
Table 1).
6.5.4.5.1 Prepare a standard solution I by diluting the
volume of each anion/cation stock solution as specified
in Table 1 together with 1 litre of water.
6.5.4.5.2 Prepare a standard solution II by diluting 20
ml of standard solution II to 100 ml with water (see
Table 1).
NOTE 6: If the concentrations of the sample ions are known,
or estimated, the concentration of calibration standard
solutions may be varied to better approximate or bracket
concentration range of interest.
6.5.5 Calibration
6.5.5.1 Analyze the blank and each of the prepared
calibration solutions described in Section 6.5.4.5.
6.5.5.2 Prepare analytical curves for each anion/cation
of interest by plotting on linear graph paper peak height
or peak area versus nominal concentrations of the
anion/cation calibration standard.
NOTE 7: Each analytical curve should be established using
only one (1) scale setting.
6.5.6 Procedure
6.5.6.1 Set-up the ion chromatograph according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE 8: The range setting required for the analysis will
depend on the concentration of ions in the sample and should
be chosen accordingly. For these types of samples, operating
range from 30 to 30µ S/cm, full scale is most frqurntly used.
6.5.6.2 Equilibriate the system by pumping eluent
through the analytical system until a stable baseline is
obtained (approximately twenty (20) minutes).
6.5.6.3 Filter samples through a pre-washed 0.22 µ m
filter prior to analysis.
NOTE 9: Several types of syringe-tip filters are available
(Millipore or equivalent).
6.5.6.4 Load 2–3 ml of sample into the injection part
using a syringe. Inject the sample into the eluent stream
and record the ion chromatogram.
6.5.7 Calculations
6.5.7.1 Refer to the peak height or area for the
anions/cations of interest to the appropriate analytical
curves to determine the anion concentration.
6.6 Inductivity Coupled Argon Plasma
Spectrometry/ICP
6.6.1 Method Principle — Inductivity coupled Argon
Plasma (ICP) uses high frequency Argon Plasma to
excite sample constituents to 8000° K. Because the
plasma ionizes most atomic species, background
interferences are vastly reduced and linear response
over several orders of magnitude can be observed for
most elements. The sample extract is aspirated into the
plasma by means of a high purity argon carrier gas. The
resulting emissions are directed into the spectrometer
and signal strengths are read by photomultiplier tubes
placed at emission points in a focal curve. A computer
is used to scan each elemental channel many times a
second, and this output is sent to a printer in numerical
form. The cycle or time of analysis is usually about
seven (7) seconds. With this instrument, very little of
the extracted sample is consumed.

6.6.2 Instrument Conditions
Typical operating conditions are:
Excitation source 27 MHz plasma
Carrier gas 99.999% Argon
Sample flow 1 ml/min
Power output 1000 watts
Plasma temperature 8000° K
Slit width of Spectrometer 30 µ m
6.6.3 Measurement of Sodium, Potassium, and Antimony — A standard solution of ten (10) ppm of sodium,
potassium, and antimony should be prepared and cycled through the ICP instrument. The blank extract sample and
the unknown molding compound extracts are then run through the ICP. The values obtained for sample are corrected
by subtracting values obtained for the blank. With the ICP, sodium, potassium, and antimony can be analyzed with
sensitivities to the ten (10) PPB levels. Any additional elements present may be obtained on the same cycle with no
additional preparation.
