What is BS EN 10200 - Spectrophotometric method about?
BS EN 10200 is a European standard that discusses the spectrophotometric method for the determination of boron in steels for the chemical analysis of ferrous materials. Spectrophotometric uses a light beam that passes through the sample, and each compound in the solution absorbs or transmits light over a certain wavelength.
BS EN 10200 specifies a spectrophotometric method for the determination of boron in steels. The method applies to non-alloyed and alloyed steels with boron contents of 0,000 4 to 0,012 0 % (m/m).
Who is BS EN 10200 - Spectrophotometric method for?
BS EN 10200 on spectrophotometric method applies to:
- Chemical engineers
- Laboratory testing’s
Why should you use BS EN 10200 - Spectrophotometric method?
Ferrous metals such as cast and wrought iron or carbon steel are known for their tensile strength and durability. As a result, materials such as carbon steel are widely used in the construction industry to build the structures of bridges and skyscrapers. Spectrophotometry is a standard and inexpensive technique to measure light absorption or the number of chemicals in a solution. It uses a light beam that passes through the sample, and each compound in the solution absorbs or transmits light over a certain wavelength.
BS EN 10200 provides you with the results of the inter-laboratory tests that show the determination of the lower limit application of the method which is 0,000 4 % (m/m) boron, based on a relative deviation not exceeding 10 % within 66 % confidence limits. This helps you to show the method which is used for lower boron content if a higher relative deviation is acceptable.
