1.1These test methods cover procedures for the chemical analysis of white titanium dioxide pigments.

1.2The analytical procedures appear in the following order:

	Sections
Preparation of Sample	4
Qualitative Analysis	5 and 6
Moisture	7
Total Titanium:
Jones Reductor Method	8 – 12
Aluminum Reduction Method	13 – 17
Aluminum Oxide	18 – 22
Silica	23 – 29

1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.4This 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. A specific hazard statement is given in Section 19.

1.5This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
