Method for the determination of sulphur within the range 0.0001% to 0.02% by mass. The sample is reacted with acid and the hydrogen sulphide evolved is absorbed in sodium hydroxide-methanol mixture, which is then titrated with mercury (II) acetate.

This Part of BS 3908 describes a method for the determination of the amount of sulphur present in lead and lead alloys by titrimetry. It is applicable to sulphur contents in the range 0.0001 % to 0.02 % by mass.

NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
