3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
radiant power
rate at which energy is transported in a beam of radiant energy
3.2
transmittance
ratio of the radiant power transmitted by a material to the radiant power incident upon it
3.3
absorbance
logarithm to the base 10 of the reciprocal of the transmittance
NOTE Can be derived by the following equation
6.4 Polyethylene contaIners. 25 ml volume.
Rinse the containers with water (5.4),
6.5 Analytical balance, capacity of 100 g and capable of weighing to the nearest 0.01 g.
6.6 Ultrasonic bath
7 Samples and sampling
Unless otnerwse specified, laboiatuiy samples shall be obtained by the procedures described in EN ISO 3170. High density polyethylene containers shall be used. The containers should be carefully cleaned and rinsed with pure water to avoid contamination.
Samples should be analysed as soon as possible after removal from bulk supplies, to prevent loss of copper. NOTE High density polyethylene containers are used to prevent losses of copper by wall adsorption
8 Preparation of blank and calibration solutions
8.1 Intermediate calibration solution
Weigh a polyethylene container (6.4) and transfer with a micropipette (6.3) 100 .il of copper standard (53)
Add water (5.4) to the container to bring the mass up to approximately 10.0 g and re-weigh to the nearest
0.01 9.
Seal the container, mix well and mark with the copper content calculated as following.
8.2 Calibration solutions
The calibration solutions shall be prepared daily.
Weigh five polyethylene containers (6.4). add about 5 g ethanol (5.2) to each container and then respectively 20 jl, 40 p1, 60 p1, 80 p1 and 100 p1 of intermediate calibration solution (8.1). Reserve a sixth container for the preparation of the blank.
Add ethanol (5.2) to each of the six containers to bnng the mass up to approximately 10.0 g and re-weigh to the nearest 0.01 g.
Seal each container, mix well and mark with the copper content (including the blank) calculated as following:
EN 15488:2007 (E)
6.4 Polyethylene containers. 25 ml volume.

Add water (5.4) to the container to bring the mass up to approximately 10.0 g and re-weigh to the nearest
0.01 g.
Seal the container, mix well and mark with the copper content calculated as following:

I’,
where
S is the copper content of the intermediate calibration solution in mg/kg:
V. is the volume of copper standard (5.3) in iii:
m, is the mass of water (5.4) in g
NOTE This procedure leads to intermediate calibration solution with nominal copper content corresponding to
10 mg.kg. The intermediate solution is stable for up to one week
8.2 Calibration solutions
The calibration solutions shall be prepared daily.
Weigh five polyethylene containers (6.4), add about 5 g ethanol (5.2) to each container and then respectively 20 p1, 40 p1, 60 p1, 80 p1 and 100 p1 of intermediate calibration solution (8.1). Reserve a sixth container for the preparation of the blank.
Add ethanol (5.2) to each of the six containers to bnng the mass up to approximately 10.0 9 and re-weigh to the nearest 0,01 g.
Seal each container, mix well and mark with the copper content (including the blank) calculated as following:BS EN 15488-2007 pdf download.
