14、gnized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.16. Reagents6.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals shall

15、beused in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.36.2 Purity of WaterUnless otherwise indicated, referencesto water sh

16、all be understood to mean distilled water or water ofequal purity.6.3 Concentration of Reagents:6.3.1 Concentrated Acid and Ammonium HydroxideWhenreagents are specified by name it shall be understood thatconcentrated reagents of the following specific gravity areintended:Hydrochloric acid (HCl) sp g

17、r 1.19Ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) sp gr 0.906.3.2 Diluted acid is described in terms of the number ofvolumes of the concentrated reagent to be added to a givennumber of volumes of water. Thus HCl (1 + 2) means 1 volumeof HCl (sp gr 1.19) added to 2 volumes of water.7. Sampling7.1 Sample in accordance

18、 with Practice D75/D75M.7.2 After reducing a field sample to an appropriate size inaccordance with Practice C702/C702M, thoroughly dry theaggregate and prepare by sieving material to pass the 9.5-mm(38-in.) sieve and is retained on the 600-m (No. 30) sieve.8. Procedure8.1 Select two portions each we

19、ighing 100 g from theaggregate sample prepared for test.8.2 Crimp the edges of two filter papers to form cup-shapedreceptacles approximately 130 mm (5 in.) in diameter and 60mm (212 in.) in depth. Place one of the 100-g portions in eachfilter cup, spreading to a uniform depth. Fold the sides of thec

20、up to the center and press in that position.8.3 Wrap both portions of the prepared sample, one on topof the other, in cheesecloth. Saturate with distilled water andexpose to steam in the steam bath for 16 h 6 30 min, addingdistilled water as make-up water as required.8.4 Remove from the steam bath,

21、and carefully remove theaggregate from the filter papers. Wash both papers in water,place on a watch glass, and oven dry at a temperature of 110 65 C (230 6 9 F). The insoluble products of the decomposi-tion of iron compounds in the aggregate will be deposited onthe filter paper as red, green, or bl

22、ack stains.8.5 Rate the extent of staining on the filter papers by theVisual Classification Method.8.5.1 Visual Classification MethodEvaluate the extent andintensity of the stains on the filter paper in accordance with thephotographic stain index reference standards shown in Figs.1-5: The photograph

23、ic stain index ranges from No Stain (stainindex = 0) to a Very Heavy Stain (stain index = 100).8.6 When required by Specification C330/C330M andSpecification C331/C331M, follow the procedure of theChemical Analysis Method.3“Reagent Chemicals, American Chemical Society Specifications,” Am.

25、6.1 Chemical Analysis MethodThe iron deposits maybe dissolved from the filter papers by careful application ofHCl from a dropping bottle and rinsing with hot distilled waterfrom a wash bottle. Otherwise, dissolve the iron compound onthe washed and dried filter papers by digesting in HCl (1 + 1)and f

26、iltering out the residue of filter pulp washing thoroughlywith hot water. Precipitate the iron in the filtrate as ferrichydroxide Fe(OH)3by adding NH4OH dropwise to neutralizethe acid using methyl red indicator solution. Redissolve theFe(OH)3precipitate using 10 cm3of HCl (1 + 1) and determinethe ir
