Date of introduction 1973−01−01
The decision of the State standards Committee of the USSR Council of Ministers from October 25, 1971 N 1759 the introduction of set with 01.01.73
Proven in 1985 by the Resolution of Gosstandart from
REPLACE GOST 7980−56 in part of sec. VI-X
* REISSUE (January 1986) Change N 1, approved in February 1985 (I & C 5−85).
This standard applies to the gold-silver-copper, gold-copper and gold-silver alloys and establishes a spectral method for the determination of bismuth, antimony, lead (with a mass fraction of from 0.002 to 0.01% each) and iron (in mass fraction from 0.01 to 0.20%).
The method is based on measurement of the intensities of analytical lines of impurities in the arc spectrum. The relationship of intensity with concentration is established by calibration with standard samples of the system. The electrodes were applied to the rods of the analyzed alloy.

3. PREPARATION FOR ASSAY
Samples and standard samples are taken in the form of cast rods with a diameter of 6 mm, a length of 20−30 mm. Rods with both ends sharpened to a hemisphere or a truncated cone with ground diameter of 1.5−1.7 mm.
To remove surface contamination samples standards and samples were placed in a glass, pour diluted 1:1 hydrochloric acid, boiled for 3 min, then washed with water and dried.
(Changed edition, Rev. N 1).
4. ANALYSIS
Photographing spectra is produced when the width of the slit of a spectrograph 0.010 mm, the distance between the electrodes is 1.5 mm, the current strength of the arc And 5−7, the time of the preliminary firing 20 C exposure time 30−60 s. the Interelectrode gap is set by the template. Electrodes serve as cast members. The spectra are photographed on photographic plates of the spectral type II. Together with the samples on the same plate photographed spectra of standard samples analyzed grade alloy.
For each sample and the standard sample receive four parallel spectrogram.
Photographic plates showing within 3 min when the temperature of the developer is 18−20 °C. the Shown plate is rinsed in water, fixed, washed in running water and dried.

For all impurities, the element of comparison is the background of the continuous spectrum. The background value should be in the region of normal pochernenija.
The concentration of impurities is determined using the three standards with the objective photoretrieval. Build calibration graphs for each element being measured. The ordinate of the delay values of the logarithm of the relative intensity of the impurity lines and the background, and the abscissa shows the value of the logarithm of concentration of standard samples. With the help of calibration curve by the known values of the logarithm of relative intensity find concentrations of impurities in the sample.
The convergence of the results of parallel measurements are characterized by a relative standard deviation not to exceed 0,15.
