Abstract: Silver separating residue, flux (Na2CO3, Na2B4O7·H2O and SiO2), PbO and starch were mixed in an appropriate ratio by adopting fire assay method. Then the mixed substance was heated to dissolve and form lead button in crucible at the temperature of 900-1 100 ℃. Alloy particle was obtained by cupellation of lead button. Then testing solution was gotten by dissolving the alloy particle with nitric acid. Finally, the content of silver in testing solution was determined by potentiometric titration.After testing, it was found that 3.0 g of sample, pH 2-5, room temperature and 20 mL of ethanol were the best choice to determine silver in silver separating residue. Different samples were used for precision test, with RSD (n=6) between 0.10% and 0.56%. Recovery test result indicated that the addition recovery rate of the sample was 96%-100%. Testing was conducted on different silver separating residue sample. In addition, contrast test was conducted by using fire assay - potassium thiocyanate titration. Both test results were consistent with each other.
