Low alloyed steel — Determination of C, Si, Mn, P, S, Cr, Ni, Al, Ti and Cu - Glow discharge optical emission spectrometry (routine method)

ISO 19272:2015 specifies a glow discharge optical emission spectrometric (GD-OES) method for determination of the mass fraction Carbon, Silicon, Manganese, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Chromium, Nickel, Aluminium, Titanium and Copper in low alloyed steels.

The content ranges to which the method is applicable are shown in Table 1.
