Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D16 on Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Related Materials, this test method was withdrawn in November 2016. This standard is being withdrawn without replacement due to its limited use by industry.
Значение и использованиеCalcium fluoride is available in nature in various forms and purities. A major use for it is in the manufacture of hydrofluoric acid. The test methods listed in 1.1 provide procedures for analyzing calcium fluoride to determine whether it is suitable for this use.
Область применения1.1 These test methods cover the chemical analyses of acid-grade calcium fluoride (fluorspar). These test methods appear in the following sections:
| Sections | |
| Volatiles as Moisture | 6-13 |
| Silica | 14-22 |
| Assay as Calcium Fluoride (CaF 2) | 23-32 |
| Soluble Chloride as NaC1 | 33-50 |
| Calcium Carbonate | 51-59 |
| Phosphorus | 60-69 |
| Arsenic | 70-78 |
| Mixed Oxides (R2O3) | 79-87 |
| Sulfide Sulfur | 88-96 |
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 Review the current Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for each chemical used in this standard for detailed information concerning toxicity, first-aid procedures, handling, and safety precautions.
