Background technology
Lithium carbonate is the basic material of producing lithium compound and lithium metal, is one of most important product in lithium industry.Lithium carbonate is widely used in the fields such as pottery, lithium battery, pharmacy, food, metal smelt.
Along with the application of lithium carbonate in lithium battery, the detection of high-purity carbonic acid lithium product is more and more important.The method of existing detection lithium carbonate content is " hydrochloric titration ", usings methyl red-bromcresol green as indicator, and lithium carbonate solution, through watery hydrochloric acid titration, forms lithium chloride, by measuring the consumption of watery hydrochloric acid, calculates the lithium carbonate content in testing sample.The method exists titration end-point to be difficult to judgement, and in solution, residual carbon dioxide will make titration error amplify, and titration results is subject to the external conditions such as temperature, humidity to affect the defects such as large.The method exist length consuming time, personal error large, be subject to ectocine large, be unfavorable for high precision and fast detecting.
Summary of the invention
In order to overcome the deficiency existing in existing lithium carbonate detection method of content, the detection method that the object of this invention is to provide a kind of lithium carbonate content, this method is simple to operate, cost is low, consuming time few, and detection efficiency is high, is subject to the external conditions such as temperature, humidity to affect little.
Object of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:
A detection method for lithium carbonate content, is characterized in that the method comprises the following steps:
(1) take respectively the dry spectroscopic pure lithium carbonate of identical weight and treat test sample lithium carbonate sample, in 250-350 ℃ of dry 2-3h (constant weight), and in exsiccator, being cooled to room temperature;
(2) respectively with deionized water by spectroscopic pure lithium carbonate and treat that test sample lithium carbonate sample dissolves completely;
(3) until spectroscopic pure lithium carbonate with after test sample lithium carbonate sample dissolves respectively completely, respectively to spectroscopic pure lithium carbonate solution with treat to add 2-5 to drip methyl orange indicator in test sample lithium carbonate sample solution, with dilute sulfuric acid be titrated to faint yellow till;
(4), after titration completes, be calculated as follows lithium carbonate content:

In the present invention, under ultrasound wave is auxiliary, adopt deionized water dissolving lithium carbonate sample.The concentration of dilute sulfuric acid is 0.01-0.20mol/L.Treat in test sample lithium carbonate sample that lithium carbonate content is more than 90%.
In the present invention, preferred detecting step is: get respectively 5.0000g spectroscopic pure lithium carbonate and treat test sample lithium carbonate sample, respectively at 300 ℃ of dry 2h (constant weight), and in exsiccator, being cooled to room temperature; Get respectively the spectroscopic pure lithium carbonate that 1.0000g is dry and treat test sample lithium carbonate sample, be placed in respectively reactor, in reactor, respectively add 90mL deionized water, under ultrasound wave is auxiliary by spectroscopic pure lithium carbonate with treat that test sample lithium carbonate sample dissolves respectively completely, then solution is transferred to respectively in 100mL volumetric flask, and is settled to 100mL; Respectively to the methyl orange indicator that drips 2 ~ 5 0.1%wt in the reactor that contains lithium carbonate solution, more respectively with the dilution heat of sulfuric acid of 0.05mol/L be titrated to faint yellow till; Calculate lithium carbonate content.For guaranteeing that accurately each sample is at least done three groups of parallel laboratory tests, and averages, and obtains lithium carbonate content.
In the present invention, employing methyl orange is indicator, and concentration is 0.1%wt left and right, generally drips 2-5 and drips, and adopts dilute sulfuric acid to carry out titration, and the concentration of dilute sulfuric acid is 0.05mol/L.
This method is applicable to lithium carbonate content in the detection of 90% sample, and testing result is more accurate, and this range detection error of low mistake is larger, does not advise adopting this method to detect.
Regulation (GB/T11064.1-2013) in national standard, while carrying out lithium carbonate content detection, the difference of two parallel analysis results in same experiment, should meet table 1 regulation, if outside tolerance, again detect again, do parallel laboratory test simultaneously, adopt this method to carry out a large amount of detection tests, the tolerance of gained all, within industry regulation, meets the demands.
Between table 1 laboratory, the difference of analysis result should be not more than the listed permissible value of following table
The present invention be take methyl orange as indicator, adopts dilute sulfuric acid titrimetry to replace original watery hydrochloric acid titrimetry, can be used for the mensuration of lithium carbonate content in sample.Compare with original method (watery hydrochloric acid titrimetry GB/T11064.1-2013), the present invention is simple to operate, and detection time is short, titration end-point is easy to judgement, has reduced error, is subject to the impact of the external conditions such as temperature, humidity little, agents useful for same toxicity is little, operation safe.
Embodiment
Below by specific embodiment, the present invention will be further elaborated.The lithium carbonate content of take is below example at more than 98% sample, by measuring lithium carbonate content in same sample, to comparing of original method (watery hydrochloric acid titration GB/T11064.1-2013) and detection method of the present invention.
The concrete operation method of lithium carbonate content in original working sample (watery hydrochloric acid titrimetry) is measured according to the experimental procedure in GB/T11064.1-2013 standard.
It is indicator that the present invention adopts methyl orange, and dilute sulfuric acid residual quantity titrimetry is carried out blank assay simultaneously, usings respectively and does not add the test of sample and do not add indicator as blank test.
It is indicator that the present invention adopts methyl orange, and dilute sulfuric acid residual quantity titrimetry is carried out 3 groups of parallel laboratory tests simultaneously, and concrete operation step comprises:
(1) get respectively 5.0000g spectroscopic pure lithium carbonate and treat test sample lithium carbonate sample, respectively at 300 ℃ of dry 2h (constant weight), and in exsiccator, being cooled to room temperature;
