2、iginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method2covers the determination of theacid-insolubl
3、e lignin content of wood.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations pri

Principle of Method3.1 When wood is treated with strong acids the carbohy-drates are hydrolyzed, leaving an insoluble residue which isd
5、etermined as lignin. Since some of the wood extractives (oils,resins, fats, waxes, tannins, gums, and starch) would remaininsoluble with the lignin, these are first removed by propersolvents. The 72 % sulfuric acid method for lignin contains twoand sometimes three preliminary extractive treatments,n
6、amely: (1) with alcohol, to remove the catechol tannins; (2)with alcohol-benzene solution, to remove the resins, oils, fatsand waxes; and (3) with hot water, to remove the remainingwater-soluble materials.3.2 The alcohol extraction is necessary in analysis of woodshigh in tannin; that is, oak, chest
7、nut, redwood, etc. It has notbeen shown necessary in the more common pulpwoods, suchas the various species of spruce, pine, fir, hemlock, poplar,birch, beech, and maple. It is recommended that for thesewoods the alcohol extraction be omitted unless it is desirablefor a special purpose. In analysis o
8、f woods not listed, thedesirability of the alcohol extraction depends upon the purposeof the analysis and the report should state whether or notalcohol extraction was used.4. Significance and Use4.1 Wood contains approximately 20 to 30 % lignin. Re-moval of the lignin is the primary objective of pul
9、ping andbleaching procedures. Determination of the lignin contentprovides information for the evaluation and application ofthese processes.5. Apparatus5.1 Extraction ApparatusA compact form of Soxhlet ex-traction apparatus, with ground-glass joints, is preferable. Theapparatus shall consist of the f
10、ollowing items:5.1.1 Soxhlet Extraction Flask, having a capacity of 250mL.5.1.2 Soxhlet Extraction Tube, 45 to 50 mm in insidediameter, having a capacity to the top of the siphon ofapproximately 100 mL and a siphon tube approximately 55mm in height. Extraction tubes of these dimensions siphonmore ra
11、pidly than extractors with higher siphon tubes.5.1.3 Condenser, of the Hopkins inner-cooled type.5.1.4 Extraction Crucibles, of Alundum or fritted glass andof medium or fine porosity.5.2 Filtering CruciblesAlundum, porous porcelain, orfritted-glass crucibles (all of fine porosity), or Gooch crucible
12、swith a glass-fiber mat, are recommended for filtering theseparated lignin. Glass crucibles cannot be used if the lignin isto be ashed.6.

17、fully pour 665 mL ofH2SO4(sp gr 1.84) into about 300 mL of water, with vigorousstirring, and after cooling, dilute to 1 L. Standardize againststandard NaOH solution, using methyl orange indicator.Adjustthe H2SO4to a strength of 72 6 0.1 % by addition of water orH2SO4(sp gr 1.84) as may be found nece
18、ssary. If desired, thesolution may be standardized by an accurate determination ofits specific gravity. For 72 % H2SO4the specific gravity at20/4C is 1.6338; for use of this specific gravity methodappropriate tables should be consulted.7. Test Specimen7.1 The test specimen shall consist of1gofwood t
19、hat hasbeen ground to pass a 425-m (40 mesh) sieve and thoroughlyair-dried.8. Procedure8.1 Weigh two 1-g test specimens in tared glass-stopperedweighing bottles. Dry in an oven for2hat100to105C,replace and stopper, and cool in a desiccator. Loosen thestopper to equalize the pressure and weigh. Conti
20、nue thedrying for 1-h periods until the weight is constant. Calculatethe percentage of moisture-free wood.8.2 Weigh in the extraction crucibles two additional 1-g testspecimens for the lignin determination in duplicate. Place theextraction crucible containing the specimen in a Soxhletextraction appa
21、ratus. Extract with 95 % alcohol for 4 h, unlessthe wood is known not to contain catechol tannins, in whichcase this extraction with alcohol will not be required. Thenextract the test specimen with ethanol-toluene solution asdescribed in Test Method D1107. Remove as much of thesolvent by suction as
22、possible and wash by suction with 50 mLof ethanol to remove the toluene. Remove the excess ethanol,transfer to a beaker, and digest with 400 mL of hot water in asteam or hot-water bath at approximately 100C for 3 h. Filter,wash with 100 mL of hot water, and finally with 50 mL ofethanol to facilitate
23、 the removal of the test specimen from thecrucible. After these preliminary extractions, let the specimendry in the air.8.3 Transfer all of the air-dried test specimen to a glass-stoppered weighing bottle or a small beaker with a glass coverand add slowly, while stirring, 15 mL of cold (12 to 15C)H2
24、SO4(72 %). Mix the specimen well with the acid by stirringconstantly for at least 1 min. Allow to stand for 2 h, withfrequent stirring, at a temperature of 18 to 20C. A water bathmay be necessary to keep the temperature within these limits.Wash the material into a 1-L beaker or Erlenmeyer flask, dil
25、uteto a 3 % concentration of H2SO4by adding 560 mL of distilledwater, and boil for 4 h, either under a reflux condenser or in thenearly constant volume condition maintained by the occasionaladdition of hot water to the flask.8.4 After allowing the insoluble material to settle, filter intoa filtering
26、 crucible that has been dried at 100 to 105C andweighed in a glass-stoppered weighing bottle. Wash the residuefree of acid with 500 mL of hot water and dry the crucible andcontents in an oven for2hat100to105C. Place in theweighing bottle, cool in a desiccator, loosen the stopper of thebottle, and we
27、igh the contents of the crucible as lignin. Repeatthe drying and weighing until the weight is constant.8.5 If a correction for ash is desired, transfer the lignin to atared platinum crucible and determine the ash by igniting at900C. If the lignin cannot be quantitatively transferred, it maybe ashed
28、in the filtering crucible, provided the latter has beenignited to constant weight before filtration of the lignin residue.Ignition cannot be performed in fritted-glass crucibles.9. Report9.1 Report the results as percentage by weight of lignin inmoisture-free unextracted wood. If the wood was extrac
29、tedwith alcohol, or if the lignin was corrected for ash, state this inthe report.10. Precision and Bias410.1 An interlaboratory study conducted by nine laborato-ries on six woods indicates that the precision both within andbetween laboratories is approximately constant throughout therange of lignin
30、content. A range of content from 19 to 30 %gave a repeatability of 0.34 and a reproducibility of 0.79.11.
