GB/T 9758.5-1988 "Paints and varnishes - Determination of 'soluble' metal content - Part 5: Determination of hexavalent chromium content in the pigment portion of liquid paints or in powder paints - Diphenylcarbazide spectrophotometric method" specifies a spectrophotometric method for determining the hexavalent chromium content in paints, applicable to the pigment portion of liquid paints or powder paints. Hexavalent chromium reacts with diphenylcarbazide to form a purplish-red complex, and its concentration is quantified by measuring absorbance with a spectrophotometer. The test requires instruments such as a spectrophotometer, cuvettes, an analytical balance, and volumetric flasks, providing an accurate method for controlling toxic hexavalent chromium in coatings.
