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,

32、 rinsing 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.

36、ing.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 pycnometer, removing bubbles, as they form,with the syringe, when possible. Also remove any water

37、 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 hypodermic needle with fingers asminute quantities of oil transferred this way would cause fau

38、ltydrainage in the capillary neck of the pycnometer.9.3 Close the pycnometer with the glass stopper and im-merse it to a point above the calibration mark in the constant-temperature bath adjusted to a constancy of 60.01C at thedesired temperature (Note 4). Periodically, or before the liquidexpands i

39、nto the overflow chamber, remove the stopper, raisethe pycnometer sufficiently to expose the calibration mark toview, and readjust the liquid level to the mark by withdrawingliquid through the steel draw-off needle until expansion hasstopped, indicating that the liquid has reached the temperatureof

40、the thermostat. To minimize errors caused by faultydrainage, do not allow the liquid to expand more than 10 mmabove the 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,

41、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

42、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

43、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

44、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

45、meter calibration factor, Ft, from theequation:Ft5 density of water at tC!/ (1)weight of water in pycnometer at tC!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.

46、Procedure 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 sa

47、mple 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 d

48、epth 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

49、 has been added to maintain the meniscusslightly above the calibration mark at the reference tempera-ture. Allow to equilibrate to reference temperature.TABLE 1 Vacuum Corrections to be Applied to DensitiesObserved in Air of Various DensitiesNOTE 1Interpolate linearly for intermediate sample densities.NOTE 2For air densities outside this table the vacuum correction shallbe calculated from the equation C=da1(FtWt), dabeing the densityof the air in the balance case in grams per millilitre.
