19、Introduction The water content of fertilizers has a significant effect on their quality and, especially, their storage and handling properties. Water can be present in a number of forms such as free water, bound water and water of crystallization. It is often important to be able to distinguish betw
20、een these forms of water. The gravimetric methods for determination of water standardized in EN 12048 and EN 12049 have only limited applicability. The Karl Fischer method is applicable to a wide range of fertilizers. However, there are several variations to the basic technique, different formulatio
21、ns of the Karl Fischer reagents are commercially available and a number of different solvents can be used. In this standard, methanol and 2-propanol are used as extracting media to distinguish between the different forms of water present in fertilizers. EN 13466 “Fertilizers Determination of water c
22、ontent (Karl Fischer methods)“ consists of two parts: ? Part 1 : Methanol as extracting medium ? Part 2 : 2-propanol as extracting medium As examples of the difference between methanol and 2-propanol as extracting media methanol gives a result which is a combination of free water and extracted water

48、us (5.5) ensuring that the distance from any part of the dispersing tool to the inner surface of the centrifuge tube is greater than the grain size of the fertilizer. Place the dispersing tool near to the surface of the fertilizer layer. Disperse for 60 s at room temperature at 9 500 min-1 at least.
49、 Make sure that the temperature during the dispersion-extraction does not exceed 40 C or, in case of fertilizer containing magnesium sulfate, 25 C. Repeat the dispersion for a further 60 s if the fertilizer has not been completely dispersed in the first operation. Repeat the extraction if the dispersion is still not complete. NOTEThe dispersion can be controlled acoustically; the turbine pitch changes once the dispersion is complete. Licensed Copy: sheffieldun sheffieldun, na, Mon Oct 30 01:39:41 GMT
