6、anual Sampling of Petroleum andPetroleum Products3. Summary of Test Method3.1 Using a standard light source, a liquid sample is placedin the test container and compared with colored glass disksranging in value from 0.5 to 8.0. When an exact match is notfound and the sample color falls between two st

7、andard colors,the higher of the two colors is reported.4. Significance and Use4.1 Determination of the color of petroleum products is usedmainly for manufacturing control purposes and is an importantquality characteristic, since color is readily observed by theuser of the product. In some cases, the

8、 color may serve as anindication of the degree of refinement of the material. When thecolor range of a particular product is known, a variation outsidethe established range may indicate possible contamination withanother product. However, color is not always a reliable guideto product quality and sh

9、ould not be used indiscriminately inproduct specifications.5. Apparatus5.1 Colorimeter, consisting of light source, glass colorstandards, sample container housing with cover, and viewingpiece as listed in Annex A1.5.2 Sample ContainerFor referee work, use the glasssample jar as shown in Fig. 1. For

10、routine tests, it is permissibleto use a cylindrical, clear glass jar with a flat bottom of 30 to32.4 mm internal diameter, 115 to 125 mm in external height,and a wall thickness no greater than 1.6 mm as specified in TestMethod D2500, or an ordinary 125-mL oil sample bottle if itmeets these requirem

United States17. Diluent7.1 Solvent Kerosine (WarningCombustible. Vaporharmful.) Having a color lighter than

17、+21 Saybolt color by TestMethod D156, this material is used for diluting dark samplesfor the test. As an alternative, other solvents, such as white oilor solvent neutral 100 of satisfactory purity that meet the colorrequirements specified here in 7.1, are also acceptable.NOTE 2Solvent kerosine compl

18、ies with this requirement if it is lighterin color than potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) solution formed bydissolving 4.8 mg of pure anhydrous K2Cr2O7in 1 L of distilled water.8. Preparation of Sample8.1 Liquid Petroleum Products such as Lubricating OilsFill the sample container to a depth of 50 mm or

19、 more andobserve the color. When the sample is not clear, heat it justsufficiently enough to make it clear to perform the colormeasurement at that temperature. A sample heated to a tem-perature of 6C (10F) above its cloud point (see Test MethodD2500) has been found suitable to test samples using thi

20、s testmethod. When the sample is darker than 8 color, one mayeither stop the test and report “D8 ASTM Color” (see 10.2)orcontinue the test and mix 15 volumes of sample into 85volumes of solvent kerosine or alternative material (see 7.1)and observe the color of the mixture.8.2 Petroleum Waxes, Includ

21、ing PetrolatumHeat thesample just sufficiently enough to make it fluid and clear toperform the color measurement at that temperature withoutheating the wax excessively, because oxidation can occur,along with consequent discoloration of the test specimen. Asample heated to a temperature of 11 to 17C

22、(20 to 30F)above its congealing point, as determined in accordance withTest Method D938, has been found suitable to test samplesusing this test method. When the sample is darker than 8 color,one may either stop the test and report “D8 ASTM Color” (see10.2) or continue the test and mix 15 volumes of

23、melted samplewith 85 volumes of solvent kerosine or alternative material (see7.1) brought to the same temperature and test the mixture atthat temperature.9. Procedure9.1 Place a sample container or containers, filled to a depthof at least 50 mm with distilled or deionized water, in thecompartment or

24、 compartments of the colorimeter throughwhich the standard glasses will be observed. Place the samplein its container in the other compartment. (When using athree-field comparator, this will be the middle compartment.)Cover the containers to exclude all exterior light.9.2 Switch on the light source

25、and compare the color of thesample with that of the standard glasses. When using athree-field comparator, the sample must be bracketed by darkerand lighter discs or by an exact match and a darker disc.Determine for two-field comparators which glass matches thecolor of the sample; or if an exact matc

26、h is not possible, thenuse that glass which possesses the next darker color.10. Report10.1 Report as the color of the sample, the designation ofthe glass producing a matching color (for example; “7.5ASTMColor.”)10.2 If the color of the sample is intermediate between thoseof two standard glasses, rep

27、ort that the sample is less than thedarker glass designation.As an example, report the designationof the darker glass preceded by the letter “L” (for example,“L7.5ASTM Color”) or with a “8 ASTM Color.”)10.2.1 If the color of the sample is less than the 0.5 glasscolor standard, report that the sample

28、 is less than the 0.5 glasscolor standard. As an example, report the designation as “L0.5ASTM Color” or “0.5 ASTM Color.”10.3 If the sample has been diluted in accordance with 7.1,report the color of the mixture followed by the abbreviation“Dil” (for example, “L7.5 Dil ASTM Color” or “7.5 DilASTM Co

29、lor”). See Note 3.NOTE 3For samples that are diluted in 10.3, it is permissible for thelaboratory to annotate the report in any suitable manner, provided that theinformation clearly conveys to the data recipient that the sample analyzedwas diluted.11.

31、ong run, in the normal and correctoperation of the test method, exceed the following value onlyin one case in twenty: 0.5 color units.11.1.2 Reproducibility The difference between two singleand independent test results obtained by different operatorsworking in different laboratories on identical tes

32、t material3Supporting data have been filed at ASTM International Headquarters and maybe obtained by requesting Research Report RR:D02-1234.FIG. 1 Standard Glass Sample JarD1500 122would, in the long run, in the normal and correct operation ofthe test method exceed the following value only in one cas

33、e intwenty: 1 color unit.11.2 BiasThe procedure in this test method has no biasbecause the value ofASTM Color is subjective and can only bedefined in terms of this test method.12.

35、 instrument must show two illuminatedareas of equal size and shape, one filled with light transmittedby color standard, the other with light transmitted by thesample. These illuminated areas shall be disposed symmetri-cally about a vertical median line and shall be separated in ahorizontal direction

36、 so that the horizontal separation of theclosest portions subtends the eye of the observer not less than2 nor more than 3.6.A1.1.2 Athree-field instrument shall show three illuminatedareas in the field of view. Two areas shall be filled with lighttransmitted by two different color standards, and the

37、se shall bedisposed symmetrically about the third area which shall befilled with light transmitted by the sample. The rectangulardimensions of each of the three areas shall be the same, and theleft- and right-hand corners of the full field of view shall berounded with radius not exceeding half the v

38、ertical dimension.The illuminated areas shall be separated in a horizontaldirection by vertical lines so that the closest portion of thesample area and any one of the color standards illuminatedareas subtends the eye of the observer not less than 0.3 normore than 0.6.A1.1.3 Each illuminated area in

39、the two-field instrumentshall cover a circle of diameter subtending at least 2.2 andmay be enlarged to any size provided that no two illuminatedpoints in the field of view are separated by a distancesubtending more than 10. In the case of the three-field directviewing instrument, the subtending angl
