1、Designation: D 1696 95 (Reapproved 2006)Standard Test Method forSolubility of Cellulose in Sodium Hydroxide1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 1696; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of las

2、t revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method2is intended for application todissolving-type cellulose pulps prepared from cotton or wood.The procedur

3、e is not directly applicable to unrefined pulps foruse in chemical conversion processes because solubility equi-librium may not be attained within the specified extractiontime.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.

4、1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to consult andestablish appropriate safety and health practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Re

Summary of Test Method3.1 Pulp is steeped in a sodium hydroxide solution of

6、 aspecified concentration for1hat20C. The soluble fraction isestimated by dichromate oxidation of the filtered steepingalkali. The concentration of sodium hydroxide used in the pulpextraction process must be reported as part of the analyticalresult. Sodium hydroxide concentrations of 10, 18, and 21.

7、5 %are most frequently used. Data are reported as percent of drysample weight.3.2 The extraction procedure avoids dilution sequences, andtherefore, the results are not comparable to data obtained by thealpha, beta, gamma methods of pulp fractionation (see TAPPIMethod T 429). The terms “alpha-,” “bet

8、a-,” or “gamma-”cellulose must not be applied to any test values obtained by thisprocedure since they are defined only by the method of theirdetermination.3.3 The essential feature of the method is to prepare sodiumhydroxide extracts and oxidize the soluble material withdichromate as described. Alte

9、rnative methods of estimatingdichromate by titration with ferrous ammonium sulfate andsodium thiosulfate are described.4. Significance and Use4.1 The measurement of soluble oxidizable components ofcellulose in sodium hydroxide is indicative of the purity of thecellulose sample, since pure cellulose

10、is insoluble in sodiumhydroxide. The extracted components are typically hemicellu-loses, which are naturally present in the wood. Differences inpulp purity can have a dramatic impact on the processing andproperties of the cellulose derivatives produced from the pulp.5. Apparatus5.1 Constant-Temperat

Preparation of Samples8.1 Condition the air-dry pulp samples to obtain moistureequilibrium by exposing them to the atmosphere for 24 h in theroom where the portions of this sample will be weighed formoisture and solubilit

29、y analysis.8.2 If the pulp is in sheeted form, tear it into pieces about 10mm square. Do not use cut edges. Weigh a portion for moistureanalysis and immediately also weigh, to the nearest 1 mg,about 1.6 g of the air-dry sample for the solubility determina-tion.8.3 Determine the moisture content of t

30、he air-dry sample inaccordance with Test Methods D 1348. Calculate the oven-dryweight of the sample for the solubility determination.9. Procedure9.1 Precool the NaOH solutions to 20C. Pulp solubility in18 and 21.5 % NaOH solutions is not affected by a few degreesvariation in temperature. Hence, temp

31、eratures of 20 6 2C aresatisfactory in this case. However, pulp solubility in 10 %NaOH solution is very sensitive to temperature variation. Theoperator must control temperature to 20 6 0.2C in all phasesof pulp extraction with 10 % NaOH solution.9.2 With a pipet or buret, transfer 100 mL of the NaOH

32、solution of the desired concentration (10, 18, or 21.5 %) into a250-mL beaker. Add the 1.6 g air-dry pulp sample to thesolution. Allow the pulp to swell for 2 min; then introduce thestirring apparatus into the beaker so that the surface of theliquid coincides with the draft tube top. Disintegrate th

33、e pulpby stirring for 3 min (Note 1). Adjust the stirring speed toprevent addition of air to the slurry (about 1500 rpm). Removethe stirrer. Carefully clean the stirring apparatus and walls ofthe beaker with a glass rod so that all pulp fibers are retainedin the alkali. Cover the beaker with a watch

34、 glass and leave inthe 20C bath until a total of 60 min have elapsed from the timeof addition of NaOH to the sample. For solubility determina-tions in 10 % NaOH solution, all extraction operations must beperformed with the sample container in the constant-temperature water bath. In work with 18 or 2

35、1.5 % NaOH, thesample container may be removed from the bath for thedisintegration process.NOTE 1Most pulps are completely disintegrated after 3 min. Areasonable increase in the time of disintegration does not sensibly affectthe solubility. On the other hand, low values are obtained if thedisintegra

36、tion is not complete. The stirrer should, therefore, be run untilcomplete disintegration is obtained, even if the time required exceeds 3min.9.3 At the end of the 1-h total extraction time, remove thebeaker from the bath and immediately filter the slurry througha coarse fritted-glass filter. Apply s

37、uction but do not pull airthrough the cellulose mat on the filter. Discard the first 10 mLof filtrate. If suspended fibers are noted in the filtrate, recyclethe filtrate through the cellulose mat to clarify. Retain thefiltrate in a stoppered Erlenmeyer flask.9.4 Transfer 10-mL aliquots of the NaOH f

38、iltrates to250-mL Erlenmeyer flasks. Add 10 mL K2Cr2O7solution toeach flask; then carefully add 30 mL of H2SO4to each flask.After 10 min (Note 2), cool to room temperature. Include ablank test with the original NaOH extraction solution in thisoperation.NOTE 2It is suggested that heat be applied to m

39、aintain a temperaturein the range of 125 to 130C for the entire 10-min period. A reflux systemis highly satisfactory.9.5 The 10-mL aliquot of the NaOH filtrates specified in 9.4is generally suitable for dissolving-type pulps; however, if thealkali solubility is greater than 16 %, reduce the volume o

40、ffiltrate to 5 mL and the volume of H2SO4to 25 mL. For pulpswith alkali solubility less than 5 %, use 20 mLof filtrate and 45mL of H2SO4.9.6 After dichromate oxidation, add 50 mL of water to eachsample and the blank. Cool again to room temperature. Titratethe excess K2Cr2O7with 0.1 N ferrous ammoniu

41、m sulfatesolution. An electrometric titrimeter is preferred for thisoperation. If this equipment is not available, ferroin indicatormay be used to detect the end point.9.7 An acceptable alternative for measuring dichromateconcentration is to use iodometric methods. In this case,transfer the cooled s

42、olution with about 500 mL of water to a1-L Erlenmeyer flask. Add about 2 g of Kl and after 5 mintitrate the solution to a visual end point with 0.1 N Na2S2O3solution, using starch as the indicator. Make a blank test on theoriginal NaOH extraction solution in the same manner.10. Calculations10.1 Calc

45、5.2As an alternative, the problem of standardization offerrous ammonium sulfate can be handled in terms of oxidation of areference cellulose solution prepared at each occasion for analysis asfollows: Dissolve 200 mg (oven-dry weight) of high-quality cotton linterspulp in H2SO4(3 + 1) (prepared by mi

46、xing 3 volumes of H2SO4(sp gr.1.84) with 1 volume of water) and dilute to 100 mL with H2SO4(3 + 1).Do not use heat in the preparation of this solution. Immediately afterpreparation, oxidize 2-mL aliquots of this solution in the proceduredescribed in Section 8 for blank and sample treatment. Compare

47、thecellulose solution and blank to express the concentration of ferrousammonium sulfate solution in terms of milligrams of cellulose permillilitre of solution. The calculation then becomes:Alkali solubility, % 5 10 Cb 2 a!#/mw (2)where:C = concentration of ferrous ammonium sulfate solution in terms

48、ofmilligrams of cellulose per millilitre, andb, a, m, w are defined as in 10.1.10.2 Calculate the results, when obtained by titration withNa2S2O3solution, as follows:Alkali solubility, % 5 V12 V2!N 3 68.5mw (3)where:V1=Na2S2O3solution required for titration of thesample, mL,V2=Na2S2O3solution requir

Report11.1 Report the alkali solubility as a percentage of oven-drypulp to one decimal place. Use the symbol S for alkalisolubility. Denote the strength of the sodium hydroxide solu-tion by a numerical suffix, for example, designate the solubilityin 10 % NaOH solution by the symbol S10.11.2 If it is of interest to report the insoluble fraction,subtract the S value from 100.
