7、TE 3The readings of the meter in the case of the concentratedproducts are not pH values according to the accepted definition, but areapparent pH values which are useful in the interpretation of the conditionof the product.4. Significance and Use4.1 pH is a measure of the hydrogen ion concentration a

Itis generally desirable that engine coolants have an alkaline pH.4.3 pH is not significant from the standpoint of predictingservi

Sampling7.1 Sample material in accordance with

21、Practice D 1176.8. Preparation of Electrode System8.1 Maintenance of ElectrodesClean the glass electrode atfrequent intervals (not less than once every week duringcontinual use) in accordance with the manufacturers instruc-tions. Drain the calomel electrode at least once each week andfill with KCl e

22、lectrolyte. Keep the electrolyte level in thecalomel electrode above that of the solution being tested at alltimes. When not in use, immerse the lower halves of theelectrodes in distilled water, or the appropriate buffer solutionrecommended by the manufacturer. Do not immerse theelectrodes in the so

23、lution being tested for any appreciableperiod of time between determinations. Although the elec-trodes are not extremely fragile, they should be handledcarefully at all times.8.2 Preparation of ElectrodesBefore and after using,wipe the electrode thoroughly with a clean cloth, or a softabsorbent tiss

24、ue, and rinse with distilled water. Follow themanufacturers recommendations if further preparation is re-quired. Prior to each pH determination, soak the preparedelectrode in distilled water for at least 2 min. Immediatelybefore use, touch the tips of the electrodes with a dry cloth ortissue to remo

25、ve excess water.9. Standardization and Testing of Electrode System inpH Units9.1 The assembly shall always be standardized with one ofthe standard buffer solutions. A second standard buffer solutionshall be used to check the linearity of the response of theelectrodes at different pH values and to de

26、tect a faulty glasselectrode or incorrect temperature compensation. The twobuffer solutions selected should bracket the anticipated pH ofthe solutions being tested.9.1.1 Turn on the instrument, allow it to warm up, andadjust according to the manufacturers instructions. Immersethe tips of the electro

27、des in the standard buffer solution chosenand allow sufficient time for the temperature of the buffersolution and the electrodes to equalize. Set the temperatureknob at the temperature of the buffer solution. Adjust thestandardization or asymmetry potential control until the meterregisters a scale r

28、eading, in pH units, equal to the known pH ofthe standardizing buffer solution.9.1.2 Rinse the electrodes with distilled water and touch thetips with a dry cloth or tissue to remove excess water. Immersethe electrodes in a second standard buffer solution. The readingof the meter shall agree with the

29、 known pH of the secondstandard buffer solution within 60.05 unit without changingthe setting of the standardization of asymmetry potentialcontrol. If it does not agree or if the meter gives a slowresponse time and drifts, the electrode should be cleaned inaccordance with the manufacturers instructi

30、ons.9.1.3 The presence of a faulty electrode is indicated byfailure to obtain a correct value for the pH of the secondstandard buffer solution after the meter has been standardizedwith the first. A cracked electrode will often yield pH valuesthat are essentially the same for both standard buffer sol

31、utions.10. Procedure10.1 Make the pH determination on (1) the unused concen-trated engine coolant or antirust (as received), or (2) anydesired dilution, with distilled water, of the concentratedproduct, or (3) used engine coolant or antirust solution. Fordilute solutions, suggested engine coolant co

32、ncentrations are50 and 33 volume %; antirust solution concentration should bein the range of proposed usage. Prepare solutions as follows:Unused engine coolant or antirust solution samples to be testedshould be obtained following the applicable portions of theprocedure outlined in Practice D 1176.10

33、.1.1 When a small, insoluble liquid layer is present,remove it prior to testing the unused sample or preparingdiluted samples for testing. Using a 100-mL mixing cylinderand a pipet or other suitable measuring device, make up asolution of the concentration desired for testing by measuringthe necessar

34、y amount of antifreeze or antirust solution into thecylinder and adding sufficient distilled water to bring thesolution volume to 100 mL.10.1.2 Thoroughly mix the contents of the cylinder byshaking, and transfer into a 250-mL tall-form spoutless or othersuitable beaker.NOTE 5Some pH apparatus is equ

35、ipped with a sample cup. It issatisfactory to use these cups and the smaller sample required with them,as an alternative to the 100-mL sample and beaker specified.10.2 Prepare the calomel and glass electrodes as directed inSection 8. Immerse the tip of the electrode in the solution andagitate. Where

36、 the instrument has a mechanical stirrer, this maybe used. Allow the system to come to equilibrium, and recordthe pH value. Remove and wash the electrodes with distilledwater and immerse them in distilled water until the nextdetermination is made.NOTE 6In the event that the glass electrodes become c

37、oated with anoil film, as the result of testing two-phase products, it is necessary toD 1287 91 (2002)2remove such film with a suitable solvent, such as 1 + 1 mixture of tolueneand ethyl acetate.NOTE 7With silicate-containing engine coolant, it is important tospecify that the pH reading be taken eit

38、her immediately after preparing thedilution or after a specified period of time, such as 30 min. In contrast toan immediate pH, the 30-min value has been shown to be approximately0.2 units lower and a measurement made after 24 h can be from 0.3 to 0.5pH units lower.11.
