3、se.1. Scope1.1 These test methods describe the evaluation of the totalsulfation activity in the atmosphere. Because of its oxidizingpower, lead dioxide (PbO2) converts not only sulfur dioxide(SO2), but other compounds, such as mercaptans and hydrogensulfide, into sulfate. It fixes sulfur trioxide an

These gases are precursors ofatmospheric sulfuric acid, which has been shown to be injuri-ous to living creatures and plants, as well as some inanimatematerials such as

18、metals, limestone and sandstone buildingmaterials.5.2 Sulfur dioxide is moderately toxic and strongly phyto-toxic to many species. Permissible ambient levels of SO2havebeen established by law.5.3 When it is necessary to establish whether ambient airconcentrations of sulfuric acid precursors, such as

19、 sulfuroxides, are present and to comply with legal criteria, manualand automatic monitoring systems specific for the individualsulfur species are used. Likely locations for monitoring sitesfor the estimation of concentrations and concentration trendsover long periods of time can be screened conveni

20、ently usingthe PbO2candles or sulfation plates.5.4 Atmospheric corrosion of metallic materials is a func-tion of many weather and atmospheric variables. The effect ofspecific corrodants, such as SO2, can accelerate the atmo-spheric corrosion of metals or structures significantly. ThePbO2candle and s

21、ulfation plate test methods provide simpletechniques to monitor SO2levels in the atmosphere indepen-dently to yield a weighted average result.5.5 The results of these test methods are useful for charac-terizing atmospheric corrosion test sites regarding the effectiveaverage concentrations of SO2in t

35、 well ventilated to theoutside for the PbO2candle or sulfation plate work.9. Sampling9.1 Refer to Practice D1357 for guidance in planningsampling programs.9.2 When these test methods are used for estimating the SO2concentration over a designated area, select sampling stationsat random on a uniform n

40、sure thesurface area of the candle. Separate the impregnated clothsurface from the cylinder, using a spatula or knife point, ifnecessary. The fabric may be cut into smaller pieces. Transferthe PbO2-covered fabric to a 250-mL beaker containing 60 mLof 83.3-g/L solution of Na2CO3(7.11). Soak the immer

41、sedpieces for 3 h, with occasional stirring. Cover the beakers, andsimmer the mixtures gently on a water bath plate for 30 min,taking care to minimize water evaporation in order to maintainan approximately constant volume. Filter the beaker contentsthrough a fast filter paper, with appropriate washi

42、ngs, andadjust the filtrate with 2 N HCl (7.8) to a pH range of 3.0 to 4.0,using methyl orange as the indicator (7.12). Exercise care toprevent any loss of sample by foaming, particularly when thepoint of neutralization is approached.10.3 Test Method BRemove the contents of the sulfationplate to a 2
