( CHD 003 ) Printed at New India Printing Press, Khurja, India General Inorganic Chemicals Sectional Committee, CHD 003 FOREWORD This Indian Standard ( Fourth Revision ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the General Inorganic Chemicals Sectional Committee had been approved by the Chemical Division Council. This standard was originally published in 1954 and then subsequently revised in 1964, 1973 and 1985. In the original standard, three types of trisodium phosphate, namely, anhydrous, monohydrate and dodecahydrate were covered. These were retained in the first revision. However, in the second revision, the monohydrate type of trisodium phosphate was deleted as it was not being manufactured in the country. In the second revision, analytical reagent grade of trisodium phosphate was added and a new requirement of free sodium hydroxide was incorporated. During the third revision, a new requirement of free alkalinity was prescribed for dodecahydrate type of trisodium phosphate, deleting the requirements of carbonates and free sodium hydroxide for this type. In this revision, new requirements of insolubles, soluble silica and chloride contents have been prescribed for trisodium phosphate, dodecahydrate along with the relevant test methods. Also, the methods for determination of carbonate alkalinity, phosphate, carbonate, free sodium hydroxide and total alkalinity have been suitably modified. When stored under ordinary conditions, the dodecahydrate may lose some water of crystallization. Any loss in water will result in an assay of more than 100 percent trisodium phosphate on the basis of the assay of sodium phosphate dodecahydrate but will not appreciably affect determination of the relative amount of other characteristics. For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2: 1960 'Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)'. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value shall be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
