Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 densitythe weight in a vacuum (that is, the mass) ofa unit volume of the material at any given temperature.3.1.2 relative density (specific gravity)the ratio of themass (weight in a vacuum) of a given volume of material at atemperature, t1, to the mass of

8、an equal volume of water at areference temperature, t2; or it is the ratio of the density of thematerial at t1to the density of water at t2. When the referencetemperature is 4C (the temperature at which the relativedensity of water is unity), relative density (specific gravity) anddensity are numeri

9、cally equal.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The liquid sample is introduced into the pycnometer,equilibrated to the desired temperature, and weighed. Thedensity or specific gravity is then calculated from this weightand the previously determined calibration factor, and a correc-tion is applied for the

10、buoyancy of air.5. Significance and Use5.1 Density is a fundamental physical property that can beused in conjunction with other properties to characterize boththe light and heavy fractions of petroleum and to assess thequality of crude oils.5.2 Determination of the density or relative density ofpetr

11、oleum and its products is necessary for the conversion ofmeasured volumes to volumes at the standard temperatures of15C.5.3 The determination of densities at the elevated tempera-tures of 40 and 100C is particularly useful in providing thedata needed for the conversion of kinematic viscosities incen

Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Clean the pycnometer thoroughly with hot chromic acidcleaning solution by means of the assembly shown in Fig. 5(WarningSee

28、7.3.) Chromic acid solution is the mosteffective cleansing agent. However, surfactant cleansing fluidshave also been used successfully. Mount the apparatus firmlyand connect the trap to the vacuum. Warm the necessaryamount of cleaning acid in the beaker, place the pycnometer onthe ground joint, and

29、evacuate by opening the stopcock tovacuum. Fill the pycnometer with acid by turning the stop-cock, and either repeat several times, or remove the filledpycnometer and allow it to stand for several hours at 50 to60C. Remove the acid from the pycnometer by evacuation,empty the acid from the trap, and

30、flush the pycnometer withdistilled water. Clean in this manner whenever the pycnometeris to be calibrated or whenever liquid fails to drain cleanly fromthe walls of the pycnometer or its capillary. Ordinarily, thepycnometer may be cleaned between determinations by wash-ing with a suitable solvent, r

31、insing with pure, dry acetone,followed by isopentane, and vacuum drying. (WarningSee7.1 and 7.2.)8.2 Transfer the pycnometer to the cleaner assembly shownin Fig. 4, with vacuum line and trap attached to the side tubeas indicated. Place the pycnometer on the cleaner with theupper hypodermic needle ex

32、tending upward into the pycnom-eter, and press the edge of the ground joint on the rubberstopper until the vacuum holds it in place. Draw out all theliquid or sample. Immerse the lower end of the hypodermictube in a suitable solvent and draw 20 to 25 mL through thepycnometer. Leaving the pycnometer

33、in place, draw air throughit until it is dry. Clean the hypodermic syringe with the sameapparatus.9. Calibration of Pycnometers9.1 Weigh the clean, dry pycnometer to 0.1 mg and recordthe weight.NOTE 3It is convenient to use the lightest of a set of pycnometers asa tare. For best results the treatmen

34、t and environment of both pycnometerand tare should be identical for some time prior to weighing.9.2 With a syringe of suitable size, transfer freshly boiledand cooled distilled water to the pycnometer through the fillingneedle (Note 6). Avoid trapping air bubbles in the bulb orcapillary of the pycn

35、ometer, removing bubbles, as they form,with the syringe, when possible. Also remove any water abovethe calibration mark and dry the overflow chamber andcapillary with a cotton-fiber pipe cleaner or cotton swab whichhas been moistened slightly with acetone. Do not touch theplunger of the syringe or h

36、ypodermic needle with fingers asminute quantities of oil transferred this way would cause faultydrainage in the capillary neck of the pycnometer.FIG. 3 Accessories for Bingham-Type PycnometerD14800739.3 Close the pycnometer with the glass stopper and im-merse it to a point above the calibration mark

37、 in the constant-temperature bath adjusted to a constancy of 60.01C at thedesired temperature (Note 4). Periodically, or before the liquidexpands into the overflow chamber, remove the stopper, raisethe pycnometer sufficiently to expose the calibration mark toview, and readjust the liquid level to th

38、e mark by withdrawingliquid through the steel draw-off needle until expansion hasFIG. 4 Cleaner Assembly for Bingham-Type PycnometerFIG. 5 All-Glass Pycnometer Cleaner Assembly for Use with Hot Chromic Acid Cleaning SolutionD1480074stopped, indicating that the liquid has reached the temperatureof th

39、e thermostat. To minimize errors caused by faulty drain-age, do not allow the liquid to expand more than 10 mm abovethe calibration mark at any time. Allow the contents toequilibrate an additional 10 min and draw the level downexactly to the calibration line, avoiding parallax and using amagnifier,

40、if necessary, to obtain good visibility. Remove anyliquid adhering to the walls above the calibration mark, withthe draw-off needle or pipe cleaner, depending upon thevolatility of the sample. Portions in the overflow bulb can beremoved with a cotton swab moistened with acetone.NOTE 4For temperature

41、s above 80C calculate the volume from thecoefficient of expansion of the glass observed from calibrations made at60, 70, and 80C.9.4 Replace the glass stopper, remove the pycnometer fromthe bath, wash the outside surface with acetone, and drythoroughly with a chemically clean, lint-free, slightly da

42、mpcloth. Place the pycnometer in or near the balance case for 20min and weigh to the nearest 0.1 mg.NOTE 5In atmospheres of low humidity (60 % or lower), drying thepycnometer by rubbing with a dry cotton cloth will induce static chargesequivalent to a loss of about 1 mg in the weight of the pycnomet

43、er. Thischarge may not be completely dissipated in less than 30 min. The use ofabout 0.1 mg of radium bromide- or polonium-coated foil in the balancecase, or maintaining the relative humidity at 60 percent or higher, aids inreducing weighing difficulties due to static charges.9.5 Calculate the pycno

44、meter calibration factor, Ft, from theequation:Ft5density of water at tC!/weight of water in pycnometer at tC! (1)See Table 2 for the density of water between 0 and 100C.9.6 Duplicate determinations should not show a variationgreater than 60.2 mg in the net weight of the water in thepycnometer.10. P

45、rocedure for Viscous Liquids10.1 Weigh the pycnometer as directed in Section 8.10.2 Warm, in an oven or convenient warming chamber, thepycnometer, syringe with needle, and sample to a convenientworking temperature consistent with the fluidity and volatilityof sample. Draw the requisite amount of sam

46、ple into thesyringe and immediately fill the warmed pycnometer takingcare to avoid occluding air bubbles in the pycnometer bulb orcapillary. Continue the addition of sample, withdrawing thefilling needle gradually so that the tip remains immersed in thesample, until the sample has been added to a de

47、pth of 10 or 20mm in the expansion chamber above the capillary, dependingupon the amount of contraction expected.10.3 Immerse the pycnometer bulb in the constant-temperature bath. As the sample contracts continue sampleaddition before the level recedes into the capillary or until asufficient amount

48、has been added to maintain the meniscusslightly above the calibration mark at the reference tempera-ture. Allow to equilibrate to reference temperature.NOTE 6Equilibration time depends upon the viscosity and tempera-ture of the sample at the time of filling. Usually this is three to four timesthat r

49、equired for a fluid sample. A safe criterion is to allow 15 min moreequilibration time after the meniscus remains stationary.10.4 Remove excess sample with the 16-gage needle at-tached to a vacuum line, warming the needle if necessary.Swab the capillary above the calibration mark and the overflowchamber several times with a pipe cleaner or small cotton swabslightly moistened with a suitable solvent. Follow with a dryswab. Final adjustment to the mark may be done by picking outsample with a small probe, splinter, or wire.10.5 Remov
