3、e.e1NOTERemoved “asbestos” from 6.4 and reinstated original research report footnote editorially in October 2007.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of the amountof carbon residue (Note 1) left after evaporation and pyrolysisof an oil, and is intended to provide some indication of

4、 relativecoke-forming propensities. This test method is generally ap-plicable to relatively nonvolatile petroleum products whichpartially decompose on distillation at atmospheric pressure.Petroleum products containing ash-forming constituents asdetermined by Test Method D 482 or IP Method 4 will hav

5、e anerroneously high carbon residue, depending upon the amountof ash formed (Note 2 and Note 4).NOTE 1The term carbon residue is used throughout this test methodto designate the carbonaceous residue formed after evaporation andpyrolysis of a petroleum product under the conditions specified in this t

6、estmethod. The residue is not composed entirely of carbon, but is a cokewhich can be further changed by pyrolysis. The term carbon residue iscontinued in this test method only in deference to its wide common usage.NOTE 2Values obtained by this test method are not numerically thesame as those obtaine

7、d by Test Method D 524. Approximate correlationshave been derived (see Fig. X1.1), but need not apply to all materialswhich can be tested because the carbon residue test is applied to a widevariety of petroleum products.NOTE 3The test results are equivalent to Test Method D 4530, (seeFig. X1.2).NOTE

8、 4In diesel fuel, the presence of alkyl nitrates such as amylnitrate, hexyl nitrate, or octyl nitrate causes a higher residue value thanobserved in untreated fuel, which can lead to erroneous conclusions as tothe coke forming propensity of the fuel. The presence of alkyl nitrate inthe fuel can be de

The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.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 t

Summary of Test Method4.1 Aweighed quantity of sample is placed in a crucible andsubjected to destructive distillation. The residue u

19、ndergoescracking and coking reactions during a fixed period of severeheating. At the end of the specified heating period, the testcrucible containing the carbonaceous residue is cooled in adesiccator and weighed. The residue remaining is calculated asa percentage of the original sample, and reported

20、 as Conradsoncarbon residue.5. Significance and Use5.1 The carbon residue value of burner fuel serves as arough approximation of the tendency of the fuel to formdeposits in vaporizing pot-type and sleeve-type burners. Simi-larly, provided alkyl nitrates are absent (or if present, providedthe test is

21、 performed on the base fuel without additive) thecarbon residue of diesel fuel correlates approximately withcombustion chamber deposits.5.2 The carbon residue value of motor oil, while at one timeregarded as indicative of the amount of carbonaceous depositsa motor oil would form in the combustion ch

22、amber of anengine, is now considered to be of doubtful significance due tothe presence of additives in many oils. For example, anash-forming detergent additive may increase the carbon residuevalue of an oil yet will generally reduce its tendency to formdeposits.5.3 The carbon residue value of gas oi

23、l is useful as a guidein the manufacture of gas from gas oil, while carbon residuevalues of crude oil residuums, cylinder and bright stocks, areuseful in the manufacture of lubricants.6. Apparatus (see Fig. 1)6.1 Porcelain Crucible, wide form, glazed throughout, or asilica crucible; 29- to 31-mL cap

24、acity, 46 to 49 mm in rimdiameter.6.2 Iron Crucible Skidmore iron crucible, flanged andringed, 65- to 82-mL capacity, 53 to 57 mm inside and 60- to67-mm outside diameter of flange, 37 to 39 mm in heightsupplied with a cover without delivery tubes and having thevertical opening closed. The horizontal

25、 opening of about 6.5FIG. 1 Apparatus for Determining Conradson Carbon ResidueD18906e12mm shall be kept clean. The outside diameter of the flat bottomshall be 30 to 32 mm.6.3 Iron Crucible Spun sheet-iron crucible with cover; 78to 82 mm in outside diameter at the top, 58 to 60 mm in height,and appro

26、ximately 0.8 mm in thickness. Place at the bottom ofthis crucible, and level before each test, a layer of about 25 mLof dry sand, or enough to bring the Skidmore crucible, withcover on, nearly to the top of the sheet-iron crucible.6.4 Wire Support Triangle of bare Nichrome wire ofapproximately No. 1

27、3B provided at the top with a chimney 50 to 60 mmin height and 50 to 56 mm in inside diameter, which is attachedto the lower part having the perpendicular sides by a cone-shaped member, bringing the total height of the complete hoodto 125 to 130 mm. The hood can be made from a single pieceof metal,

28、provided it conforms to the foregoing dimensions. Asa guide for the height of the flame above the chimney, a bridgemade of approximately 3-mm iron or Nichrome wire, andhaving a height of 50 mm above the top of the chimney, shallbe attached.6.6 InsulatorHeat-resistant block, refractory ring, or hol-l

29、ow sheet-metal box, 150 to 175 mm in diameter if round, or ona side if square, 32 to 38 mm in thickness, provided with ametal-lined, inverted cone-shaped opening through the center;83 mm in diameter at the bottom, and 89 mm in diameter at thetop. In the case of the refractory ring no metal lining is

30、necessary, providing the ring is of hard, heat-resistant material.NOTE 5It is not know what type of insulators were used in the roundrobin conducted for obtaining the precision given in Section 13.6.7 Burner, Meker type, having an orifice approximately 24mm in diameter.7. Sampling7.1 For sampling te

31、chniques see Practices D 4057 andD 4177.8. Procedure8.1 Shake thoroughly the sample to be tested, first heating to50 6 10C for 0.5 h when necessary to reduce its viscosity.Immediately following the heating and shaking, filter testportion through a 100 mesh screen. Weigh to the nearest 5 mga 10-g sam

32、ple of the oil to be tested, free of moisture and othersuspended matter, into a tared porcelain or silica cruciblecontaining two glass beads about 2.5 mm in diameter. Placethis crucible in the center of the Skidmore crucible. Level thesand in the large sheet-iron crucible and set the Skidmorecrucibl

33、e on it in the exact center of the iron crucible. Applycovers to both the Skidmore and the iron crucible, the one onthe latter fitting loosely to allow free exit to the vapors asformed.8.2 On a suitable stand or ring, place the bare Nichromewire triangle and on it the insulator. Next center the shee

34、t-ironcrucible in the insulator with its bottom resting on top of thetriangle, and cover the whole with the sheet-iron hood in orderto distribute the heat uniformly during the process (see Fig. 1).8.3 Apply heat with a high, strong flame from the Meker-type gas burner, so that the pre-ignition perio

35、d will be 10 6 1.5min (a shorter time can start the distillation so rapidly as tocause foaming or too high a flame). When smoke appearsabove the chimney, immediately move or tilt the burner so thatthe gas flame plays on the sides of the crucible for the purposeof igniting the vapors. Then remove the

36、 heat temporarily, andbefore replacing adjust by screwing down the pinch-cock onthe gas tubing so that the ignited vapors burn uniformly withthe flame above the chimney but not above the wire bridge.Heat can be increased, if necessary, when the flame does notshow above the chimney. The period of bur

37、ning the vaporsshall be 13 6 1 min. If it is found impossible to meet therequirements for both flame and burning time, the requirementfor burning time is the more important.8.4 When the vapors cease to burn and no further bluesmoke can be observed, readjust the burner and hold the heatas at the begi

38、nning so as to make the bottom and lower part ofthe sheet-iron crucible a cherry red, and maintain for exactly 7min. The total period of heating shall be 30 6 2 min, whichconstitutes an additional limitation on the tolerances for thepre-ignition and burning periods. There should be no difficultyin c

39、arrying out the test exactly as directed with the gas burnerof the type named, using city gas (20 to 40 MJ/m3), with thetop of the burner about 50 mm below the bottom of thecrucible. The time periods shall be observed with whateverburner and gas is used.8.5 Remove the burner and allow the apparatus

40、to cool untilno smoke appears, and then remove the cover of the Skidmorecrucible (about 15 min). Remove the porcelain or silicacrucible with heated tongs, place in the desiccator, cool, andweigh. Calculate the percentage of carbon residue on theoriginal sample.9. Procedure for Residues Exceeding 5 %

41、9.1 This procedure is applicable to such materials as heavycrude oils, residuums, heavy fuel oils, and heavy gas oils.9.2 When the carbon residue as obtained by the proceduredescribed in Section 8 (using a 10-g sample) is in excess of5 %, difficulties can be experienced due to boiling over of thesam

42、ple. Trouble also can be encountered with samples ofheavy products which are difficult to dehydrate.9.3 For samples showing more than 5.0 and less than 15.0 %carbon residue by the procedure described in Section 8, repeatthe test using a 5 6 0.5 g sample weighed to the nearest 5 mg.In event that a re

43、sult greater than 15.0 % is obtained, repeat thetest, reducing the sample size to 3 6 0.1 g, weighed to thenearest 5 mg.9.4 If the sample boils over, reduce the sample size first to5 g and then to3gasnecessary to avoid the difficulty.9.5 When the 3-g sample is used, it can be impossible tocontrol th

44、e preignition and vapor burning times within thelimits specified in 8.3. However, in such cases, the results shallbe considered as valid.D18906e1310. Procedure for Carbon Residue on 10 % DistillationResidue10.1 This procedure is applicable to light distillate oils, suchas ASTM No. 1 and No. 2 fuel o

45、ils.10.2 Assemble the distillation apparatus described in Speci-fication E 133 using flask D (250-mL bulb volume), flasksupport board with 50-mm diameter opening, and graduatedcylinder C (200-mL capacity). A thermometer is not requiredbut the use of the ASTM High Distillation Thermometer 8F or8C as

46、prescribed in Specification E1or the IPHigh DistillationThermometer 6C, as prescribed in the IP Thermometer Speci-fications is recommended.10.3 Place a volume of sample equivalent to 200 mL at 13to 18C in the flask. Maintain the condenser bath at 0 to 4C(for some oils it may be necessary to hold the

47、 temperaturebetween 38 and 60C to avoid solidification of waxy materialin the condenser tube). Use, without cleaning, the cylinderfrom which the sample was measured as the receiver and placeit so that the tip of the condenser does not touch the wall of thecylinder.10.4 Apply the heat to the flask at

48、 a uniform rate soregulated that the first drop of condensate exits from thecondenser between 10 and 15 min after initial application ofheat. After the first drop falls, move the receiving cylinder sothat the tip of the condenser tube touches the wall of thecylinder. Then regulate the heat so that t

49、he distillation proceedsat a uniform rate of 8 to 10 mL/min. Continue the distillationuntil 178 mL of distillate has been collected, then discontinueheating and allow the condenser to drain until 180 mL (90 % ofthe charge to the flask) has been collected in the cylinder.10.5 Immediately replace the cylinder with a small Erlen-meyer flask and catch any final drainage in the flask. Add tothis flask, while still warm, the distillation residue left in thedistilling flask, and mix well. The contents of the flask thenrepresents a 10 % distillation residue from the original
