(Main)Fertilizers - Determination of boron in concentrations > 10 % using acidimetric titration
Fertilizers - Determination of boron in concentrations > 10 % using acidimetric titration
This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of total and water extractable boron in mineral fertilizers containing more than 10 % boron.
This method is applicable to water and aqua regia fertilizer extracts obtained according to prEN 16962 and/or prEN 16964.
NOTE A method used for determination of boron in mineral fertilizers containing less than 10 % of boron (spectrophotometric determination by azomethine-H) can be also used for the scope of this method after appropriate dilution of the extracts.
Düngemittel - Bestimmung von Bor in Konzentrationen > 10 % durch azidimetrische Titration
Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung von Gesamt- und aus Wasser extrahierbarem Bor in mineralischen Düngemitteln, die mehr als 10 % Bor enthalten, fest.
Dieses Verfahren ist auf Wasser und Königswasser Extrakte von Düngemitteln anwendbar, die nach EN 16962 und/oder EN 16964 erhalten wurden.
Das Verfahren kann nach entsprechender Verdünnung der Extrakte auch für die Bestimmung von Bor in mineralischen Düngemitteln, die weniger oder gleich 10 % Bor enthalten (spektrophotometrische Bestimmung mit Azomethin H), verwendet werden.
Engrais - Dosage du bore dans des concentrations > 10 % par titration acidimétrique
La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode pour le dosage du bore total et du bore extractible à l’eau dans des engrais minéraux contenant plus de 10 % de bore.
Cette méthode est applicable aux extraits d’engrais aqueux et à l’eau régale obtenus conformément à l’EN 16962 et/ou à l’EN 16964.
NOTE Une méthode utilisée pour le dosage du bore dans des engrais minéraux contenant moins de ou égal à 10 % de bore (dosage spectrophotométrique avec l’azométhine H) peut également être utilisée dans le cadre du domaine d’application de la présente méthode après dilution appropriée des extraits.

EN 17042:2018 (E) 3 European foreword This document (EN 17042:2018) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 260 “Fertilizers and liming materials”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by December 2018, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2018. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom. SIST EN 17042:2018
EN 17042:2018 (E) 4 Introduction The preparation of this document by CEN is based on a mandate by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association (Mandate M/335), concerning the modernization of methods of analysis of fertilizers in the framework of Regulation (EC) No 2003/2003 [1]. This European Standard is part of a modular approach and concerns the analytical measurement step. "Modular" means that a test standard concerns a specific step in assessing a property and not the whole chain of measurement. The determination of boron in fertilizers can be executed by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). Acidimetric determination after addition of mannitol is more labour intensive but it is an option when ICP-AES is not available. WARNING — Persons using this European Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This European Standard does not purport to address all of the safety issues, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate health and safety practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions. IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this European Standard are carried out by suitably trained staff. SIST EN 17042:2018
EN 17042:2018 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of total and water extractable boron in mineral fertilizers containing more than 10 % boron. This method is applicable to water and aqua regia fertilizer extracts obtained according to EN 16962 and/or EN 16964. NOTE A method used for the determination of boron in mineral fertilizers containing less than or equal to 10 % of boron (spectrophotometric determination by azomethine-H) can be also used for the scope of this method after appropriate dilution of the extracts. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

This complex acid is titrated with sodium hydroxide solution to a pH of 6,3. 5 Sampling and sample preparation Sampling is not part of this European Standard. A recommended sampling method is specified in EN 1482-1 [2]. Sample preparation shall be carried out in accordance with EN 1482-2. The sample extracts shall be prepared in accordance with EN 16962 and/or EN 16964. SIST EN 17042:2018
EN 17042:2018 (E) 6 6 Reagents All reagents shall be of recognized analytical grade. All reagents including water shall have negligible concentration of boron if compared to the lowest concentration of that element in the sample solution. 6.1 Water, grade 2 according to EN ISO 3696 and free from boron. 6.2 Methyl red indicator solution. Dissolve 0,1 g of methyl red (C15H15N3O2) in 50 ml of ethanol (95 %) in a 100 ml volumetric flask (7.5). Make up the volume to 100 ml with water (6.1). Mix thoroughly. 6.3 Diluted hydrochloric acid solution, with a concentration of about c = 0,5 mol/l. Mix 1 volume of hydrochloric acid HCl ( = 1,18 g/ml) with 20 volumes of water (6.1). 6.4 Sodium hydroxide solution, with a concentration of about c = 0,5 mol/l. The solution shall be free from carbon dioxide. Dissolve 20 g of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in pellet form in a 1 000 ml volumetric flask (7.6) containing about 800 ml of boiled water (6.1). After dissolution and cooling make up to 1 000 ml with boiled water (6.1) and mix thoroughly. 6.5 Standard sodium hydroxide solution, with a concentration of about c = 0,025 mol/l. The solution shall be free from carbon dioxide. Dilute 0,5 mol/l sodium hydroxide solution (6.4) 20 times with boiled water and mix thoroughly. The value of the solution expressed as boron (B) is to be determined (8.3). 6.6 Boron calibration solution,
