Advanced technical ceramics - Methods of test for ceramic powders - Part 3: Determination of the oxygen content of non-oxides by thermal extraction with a carrier gas

Scope

This part of EN 725 describes a method for the determination of the oxygen content of non-oxide powders used for advanced technical ceramics, using an inert carrier gas thermal extraction method. The method described is suitable for oxygen contents of less than 3 %.
NOTE An indication of the limits of determination is usually given by the manufacturers of the gas analysis apparatus used. However, for a specific measurement procedure, such limits can be determined by experiments conducted by the user.
