About This Item
ASTM E878 is the ASTM standard for determining titanium in iron ores and related materials by diantipyrylmethane ultraviolet spectrophotometry. It provides a defined analytical approach for measuring titanium content in materials where accurate composition data matters for evaluation and quality control. By setting out a consistent test method, this standard helps laboratories and buyers compare results more reliably and support technical decisions with a recognized ASTM procedure.
What is ASTM E878?
ASTM E878, officially titled Standard Test Method for Determination of Titanium in Iron Ores and Related Materials by Diantipyrylmethane Ultraviolet Spectrophotometry, is a laboratory test method focused on titanium measurement. The standard describes a spectrophotometric approach using diantipyrylmethane to determine titanium in iron ore samples and similar materials. It is intended for users who need a formal ASTM method for analytical work, reporting, and consistency in mineral testing.
Where is ASTM E878 used?
This standard is commonly used in laboratories that analyze iron ores and related raw materials for titanium content. It is relevant in mineral testing workflows where sample composition must be measured in a controlled and repeatable way. ASTM E878 may support incoming material checks, production monitoring, research, and quality verification for ore-based materials. It is most useful where a recognized ultraviolet spectrophotometric method is needed for reporting titanium results.
Why is ASTM E878 important?
ASTM E878 helps create consistency in titanium determination, which is important when comparing results across laboratories or evaluating material quality. A standardized method can reduce uncertainty in testing, support procurement decisions, and improve confidence in reported analytical data. For organizations working with iron ores and related materials, using ASTM E878 may also help align internal testing practices with an established ASTM technical document and strengthen quality control processes.
