Summary of Test Met

18、hod4.1 The ultraviolet absorbance of a liquid is determined bymeasuring the absorption spectrum of the undiluted liquid in acell of known path length under specified conditions.4.2 The ultraviolet absorptivity of a solid or a liquid isdetermined by measuring the absorbance, at specified wave-lengths

19、, of a solution of the liquid or solid at known concen-tration in a cell of known path length.5. Significance and Use5.1 The absorbance of liquids and the absorptivity of liquidand solids at specified wavelengths in the ultraviolet are usefulin characterizing petroleum products.6. Apparatus6.1 Spect

Wavelengthmeasurement shall be repeatable and known to be accuratewithin 60.2 nm or l

21、ess as measured by the mercury emissionline at 313.16 nm. At the 0.4 absorbance level in the spectralregion between 220 and 400 nm, absorbance measurementsshall be repeatable within 61.0 %.6.2 For recommended methods of testing spectrophotom-eters to be used in this test method, refer to Practice E

22、275.6.3 An instrument is considered suitable when it can beoperated in a manner to give test results equivalent to thosedescribed in 6.1.6.4 Measurements requiring the use of cells having samplepath lengths less than 10 cm can be made on instrumentsequipped to handle only these cells. It is desirabl

23、e, but notessential, that the instrument be automatic recording when anextended range of the spectrum must be examined. Manuallyoperated spectrometers are suitable for obtaining absorbancereadings at specified analytical wavelengths. If measurementsare to be made at temperatures higher than room tem

24、perature,the spectrophotometer must be provided with a means formaintaining cells at the selected test temperature.6.5 One or more pairs of fused silica cells having samplepath lengths in the range from 0.1000 to 10.00 cm are required.Sample path lengths must be known to within 60.5 % ofnominal samp

25、le path length or better. Unless otherwise speci-fied, 1-cm sample path length cells are recommended. Suitableprocedures for testing and cleaning cells are described inPractice E 275.7. Reagents and Materials7.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals shall beused in all tests. Unless otherwise in

26、dicated, it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.3Other grades may beused, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is ofsufficiently high purity to

27、permit its use without lessening theaccuracy of the determination.7.2 Purity of WaterUnless otherwise indicated, referencesto water shall be understood to mean reagent water conformingto Specification D 1193, Type III.7.3 Solvents:7.3.1 Isooctane(WarningExtremely flammable, harm-ful if inhaled.), fo

28、r use as the preferred spectroscopic solvent.7.3.2 Technical isooctane is a satisfactory base stock for thepreparation of spectroscopic solvent. Allow about 4 or 5 L ofthis material to percolate through a column of activated silicagel 50 to 75 mm (2 to 3 in.) in diameter and 0.6 to 0.9 m (2 to3 ft)

29、in depth. Collect only the portion of the solvent that hasan absorbance less than 0.05 over the entire spectral range from240 to 300 nm in a 1-cm cell when compared to water in a1-cm cell.7.3.3 Decahydronaphthalene (Decalin)(WarningCombustible, vapors harmful.), for use as the first alternativespect

30、roscopic solvent.7.3.4 The silica gel percolation described in 7.3.2 is alsorecommended for the preparation of decahydronaphthalene asa spectroscopic solvent.7.3.5 Some common, commercially available solvents of“spectroscopic purity” are listed in Practices E 169. One ofthem can be selected for use

31、in absorptivity measurements butonly when indicated in Section 13.8. Sampling8.1 Precautions must be taken to ensure that a representativesample is obtained since ultraviolet absorption is very sensitiveto small amounts of extraneous material contaminating thesample through careless handling. If pos

32、sible, samples shouldbe obtained from packaged products that have been protectedfrom accidental contamination.8.2 If the petroleum product to be tested is available as abulk sample weighing more than 1 kg, a representative sampleof approximately 1 kg shall be taken and made homogeneous.8.3 If the pe

33、troleum product to be tested is available as abulk sample weighing less than 1 kg but more than 100 g, theentire sample shall be taken and made homogeneous.3“Reagent Chemicals,American Chemical Society Specifications,”Am. Chemi-cal Soc., Washington, D.C. For suggestions on the testing of reagents no

Van Nostrand Co., Inc., New York, NY, and the “United StatesPharmacopeia.”D 2008 91 (2006)28.4 In no case shall a sample of a petroleum product beconsidered representative if it weighs less than 100 g.

35、 How-ever, measurements may be made on samples weighing lessthan 100 g if the origin, sampling procedure, and basis ofselection of the sample are recorded and reported as part of theresults of this test method.ABSORBANCE OF UNDILUTED LIQUIDS9. Procedure9.1 Fill a 1.0-cm reference cell with water. Ma

36、ke sure thecell windows are clean. Position the cells in the cell compart-ment of the spectrophotometer and obtain absorbance at thewavelengths of interest within the range from 220 to 400 nm.This data gives a cell correction for the 1.0-cm cell. It can beignored at all wavelengths where the absorba

37、nce is between0.01 and +0.01. After the cell correction data has beendetermined, the cells shall be designated reference and samplecells and shall be maintained as such.9.2 Fill a 1.0-cm sample cell with undiluted liquid sample(after complete removal of water) and obtain the absorbance asdescribed i

38、n 9.1.9.3 The absorbance-wavelength curve can be convenientlyobtained starting at the long wavelength end of the spectrum.Take readings at successively shorter wavelengths until anabsorbance greater than 1.0 is obtained. When using automaticrecording instruments (recommended) make the cell correctio

39、nscan and the sample scan on the same chart. In the longerwavelength region of the spectrum, it may be desirable to uselonger path length cells than those recommended to obtainreadable absorbances. See the applicable paragraph of Prac-tices E 169. In the shorter wavelength region of the spectrum,abs

40、orbances can become too high for accurate measurement inthe 0.1-cm cell. Record these values only as greater than 1.0. Ifnumerical values are required it is recommended that absorp-tivity be measured rather than absorbance.9.4 Repeat 9.1 and 9.2 using a 0.1-cm cell in place of the1.0-cm cell (9.3).

41、Record all measurements.10. Calculation10.1 Calculate the absorbance of an undiluted liquid sampleat each analytical wavelength as follows:A 5 AL2 AC(4)where:A = absorbance of undiluted liquid sample,AL= chart or absorbance reading of sample-filled samplecell, andAC= chart or absorbance reading of w

42、ater-filled samplecell.10.2 Calculate the absorbance per centimetre path lengththat is equal to A/b, where b is the sample cell path length incentimetres.11. Report11.1 If the numerical value of the absorbance of an undi-luted liquid sample is reported, accompany it with a statementof the wavelength

43、 of measurement and the sample path lengthexpressed in centimetres.11.2 If the numerical value of the absorbance per centimetreof an undiluted liquid sample is reported, it must accompany itwith a statement of the wavelength of measurement.ABSORPTIVITY OF SOLIDS AND LIQUIDS12. Summary of Test Method

44、s12.1 The range of absorptivities for petroleum products canbe very wide. Probably most absorptivities of interest wouldfall in the range from 104to 10 L/gcm.12.2 In determining absorptivities it is necessary to measureabsorbances in the range from 0.1 to 1.0 for optimum results.This is done by prep

45、aring solutions and selecting cells ofsample path length to give absorbances in the 0.1 to 1.0 range.For an individual petroleum product the absorptivity maychange so rapidly with wavelength that it is necessary toprepare several solutions in order to cover the requiredwavelength interval. Considera

46、tion must be given to theselection of solvent, the selection of concentration levels, andthe selection of sample paths lengths to obtain optimum results.13. Selection of Solvent13.1 Refer to the applicable section of Practices E 169 for abrief discussion of solvents for ultraviolet use. The choice o

47、fsolvent is dictated by the solubility of the petroleum productand the transparency of the solvent in the region of interest.13.2 Use isooctane unless restricted by solubility require-ments.13.3 Use decahydronaphthalene as the first alternative sol-vent to be used if the sample is not sufficiently s

48、oluble inisooctane.13.4 If neither isooctane nor decahydronaphthalene willdissolve a sufficient quantity of sample to prepare the requiredsolution, then one of the solvents listed in the table in PracticesE 169. As indicated in the table in Practices E 169, not all ofthese solvents are usable over t

49、he entire spectral range coveredby this test method. For the purposes of this test method asolvent shall be considered to have sufficient “spectroscopicpurity” when its absorbance in a 1-cm cell, using reagent waterin a 1-cm cell as a reference, is less than 0.05 at all wavelengthswhere a sample absorbance is to be measured in a 1-cm cell.Cyclohexane (WarningExtremely flammable. Harmful ifinhaled.), carbon tetrachloride, chloroform (WarningCarbon tetrachloride and chloroform can be fatal if swallowed.Harmful if inhaled. Can produce toxic vapors if burned.), a
