Lot formation of lead azide shall be in accordance with the lot formation requirements of MIL-STD-1916, paragraph “Formation and identificat

27、ion of lots and batches”. a. A lot shall consist of one or more batches of lead azide produced by one manufacturer in accordance with the same specification or same specification revision under one set of operating conditions. b. There shall be no intermixing of batches (see 6.12). Each batch shall

28、be identified with a batch identification number, name of manufacturer, date of manufacture as well as dry weight of lead azide contained. c. A new makeup of any one of the solutions (i.e., lead salt, sodium azide or sodium CMC) constitutes the formation of a new lot. 4.5 Testing. (see 6.8 for preca

29、ution) 4.5.1 Sampling. The tests depicted in 4.6.1, 4.6.3 and 4.6.5 shall be performed on an individual specimen from each batch. If any samples fail to comply with the requirements specified herein, the batch shall be rejected. The tests depicted in 4.6.2 shall be performed on a composite sample ob

30、tained by removing equal quantities of lead azide from each batch of lead azide in the lot and mixing to form a composite sample. 4.5.1.1 Preparation of composite sample. The tests depicted in 4.6.2 shall be performed on a composite sample from each lot. An equal portion of damp lead azide shall be

31、removed from each batch in the lot, by means of a conductive plastic spoon to form a sample of approximately 25 grams (dry weight). (Note: Samples may be taken directly from the process equipment or storage container). The sample shall be blended wet until uniform. Water shall be added in case the s

32、ample appears dry. The sample, thoroughly wetted, shall be transferred to an appropriate conductive container closed and secured with adhesive tape. The container shall be labeled to show the name of the material, manufacturer, plant, lot number and quantity of material in the lot. If the sample fai

33、ls to comply with the requirements specified herein, the lot shall be rejected. 4.6 Test methods and procedures. (see 6.10) 4.6.1 Physical characteristics. 4.6.1.1 Color. Determine the color of the lead azide by visual examination. 4.6.1.2 Bulk powder. Determine that the powder is free flowing by vi

34、sual examination. 4.6.1.3 Particle size and shape. Spread a small portion of the wet or dry sample on a clean glass slide so that approximately an area of one square inch is covered with a thin layer of widely spaced particles. Allow wet samples to dry at room temperature. Examine under an Provided

35、by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MIL-DTL-46225D 7 optical microscope using magnifications of 50x to 200x, using a systematic approach to view a significant portion of the particles. At least 1 photomicrograph of each sample shall be retained. P

36、articles shall be similar to those in Figures 1, 2, or 3. Particles as shown in Figure 4 or 5 are unacceptable and the batches of lead azide containing such particles shall be rejected. 4.6.2 Chemical tests. 4.6.2.1 Purity. (see 6.8.2 for precaution) 4.6.2.1.1 Solutions for purity determination. a.

37、Ceric Ammonium Nitrate (CAN). Dilute with deionized or distilled water 60 mL of 70-72 % perchloric acid solution to approximately 700 mL, and add this solution to 60 g of reagent grade ceric ammonium nitrate. Heat and stir the mixture until solution takes place. Depending on the source CAN solutions

38、 can appear perfectly clear or have considerable insoluble matter. Allow to cool and let stand for forty eight hours. Filter the solution through a Gooch crucible fitted with GF/F filter mats to eliminate all insoluble matter. b. Perchloric acid solution. Dilute with deionized or distilled water 60

39、mL of 70-72 % perchloric acid solution to a volume of 1 liter. c. Ferrous Perchlorate solution (FP). This may be prepared in two ways. 1. Commercially available ferrous perchlorate can be used, if the color is still green. A brown color indicates the iron has oxidized to ferric and is no longer usab

40、le. Add 30 g of the solid ferrous perchlorate into a liter beaker. Add 700 mL deionized or distilled water and 60 mL of 70-72 % perchloric acid. Stir until all solid is dissolved. Filter through a Gooch crucible fitted with GF/F filter mats and make the volume up to 1 liter. Pass nitrogen gas throug

41、h the solution for two hours before using. Store solution in a closed container. 2. The second method involves making the solution from iron wire and perchloric acid. Add 6 g of iron wire into a liter beaker. Add 700 mL deionized or distilled water and 60 mL of 70-72 % perchloric acid solution. Heat

42、 beaker on a steam bath in a fume hood until the metal dissolves. There will be black residue. Filter through a Gooch crucible fitted with GF/F filter mats. Make volume up to 1 liter. Pass nitrogen gas through the solution for two hours before using. d. Ferroin indicator solution. Commercially avail

43、able ferroin indicator can be used. 4.6.2.1.2 Determination of CAN/FP ratio. Pipet 40 mL of the CAN solution into a 150 mL beaker. Add 25 mL of perchloric acid solution. Add two drops of the ferroin indicator solution. The color shall be yellow. Titrate with FP. Gradually the color lightens until th

44、e Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-MIL-DTL-46225D 8 yellow disappears, and the solution shall be a very pale blue. Continue titration drop wise with FP while stirring until the solution turns pink. Divide the volume of CAN by the volum

45、e of FP to get the CAN/FP ratio. 4.6.2.1.3 Standardization of CAN solution. Weigh about 0.3 g of sodium oxalate into a 250 mL beaker. Add a magnetic stir bar. Pipet 40 mL CAN solution into the beaker. Add 25 mL perchloric acid solution. Add two drops ferroin indicator solution. Cover the top of the

46、beaker with a watch glass, and stir the solution magnetically until all the sodium oxalate is dissolved. If the yellow color completely disappears, then the aliquot of sodium oxalate was too large. Try again with a smaller quantity. Titrate the contents of the beaker with FP until the solution just

47、turns pink. Normality of CAN N = (100xA)/ 6.701 x (40 BxC) Where: A = weight of sodium oxalate in grams B = mL of ferrous perchlorate used C = CAN/FP ratio 4.6.2.1.4 Determination of lead azide purity. Pipet 40 ml of CAN into a 150 mL beaker. Add 25 mL of perchloric acid solution. Add two drops of f

48、erroin. Cover the beaker with a watch glass, and place it in an ice bath for fifteen minutes. Use Teflon-coated spatulas and forceps for handling lead azide. Perform weighings in a high humidity (about 50-60 %) weighing room. Accurately weigh an amount of approximately 0.4 g of lead azide into a tar

49、ed small (1-2 mL) beaker. Using the forceps, plunge the small beaker into the 150 mL beaker. Wash the forceps tips with a spray of deionized water into the beaker. Gently stir the contents of the beaker with a glass or plastic stirring rod until all the solid has reacted. If the yellow color disappears, then the lead azide sample was too large. Repeat with a smal
