Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any
patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on
the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions related to conformity
assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical Barriers
to Trade (TBT), see the following URL: Foreword — Supplementary information.
The committee responsible for this document is ISO/TC 174, Jewellery.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 11494:2008), which has been technically
revised with the following changes:
a) change in the scope that this method is the referee method;
b) addition of a warning in Clause 8 that suitable health and safety procedures should be followed;
c) addition of a standard solution in 8.1;
d) addition of an alternative calibration solution in 8.2.2;
e) addition of an alternative sample solution in 8.3.2;
f) addition of an alternative route for calculation in 8.6.4;
g) International Standard editorially revised.

Introduction
The following definitions apply in understanding how to implement an ISO International Standard and
other normative ISO deliverables (TS, PAS, IWA):
— “shall” indicates a requirement;
— “should” indicates a recommendation;
— “may” is used to indicate that something is permitted;
— “can” is used to indicate that something is possible, for example, that an organization or individual
is able to do something.
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (sixth edition, 2011), 3.3.1 defines a requirement as an “expression in the
content of a document conveying criteria to be fulfilled if compliance with the document is to be claimed
and from which no deviation is permitted.”
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (sixth edition, 2011), 3.3.2 defines a recommendation as an “expression in the
content of a document conveying that among several possibilities one is recommended as particularly
suitable, without mentioning or excluding others, or that a certain course of action is preferred but not
necessarily required, or that (in the negative form) a certain possibility or course of action is deprecated
but not prohibited.”

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 11494:2014(E)
Jewellery — Determination of platinum in platinum
jewellery alloys — ICP-OES method using yttrium as
internal standard element
1 Scope
This International Standard describes a method for the determination of platinum in platinum jewellery
alloys, preferably within the range of fineness specified in ISO 9202, by means of inductively coupled
plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES).
This method applies to platinum jewellery alloys that might contain silver, indium, iridium, gallium,
copper, cobalt, nickel, tin, and ruthenium. However, this list is not exhaustive and care is always to be
taken to investigate potential interference effects.
This method is intended to be used as the recommended method for the determination of fineness in
alloys covered by ISO 9202 up to 990 ‰.
