CAFA is manufacturedonly by Manville Co. and distributed through scientific supplyhouses.7. Hazards7.1 Fumes of the so

17、lvents should be removed by means ofproper hoods from all working areas. The working area shouldbe kept free of sparks and flames. Quinoline fumes should notbe inhaled, and prolonged contact with the skin should beavoided. Toluene is toxic and flammable.7.2 Observe proper laboratory procedures for h

18、andling hy-drochloric and diluting acid.8. Bulk Sampling8.1 Samples from shipments shall be taken in accordancewith Practice D 4296 and shall be free of foreign substances.Thoroughly mix the sample immediately before removing arepresentative portion for the determination or for dehydration.9. Dehydr

19、ation of Sample9.1 Hard PitchIf the solid bulk sample contains freewater, air-dry a representative portion in a forced draft oven at50C.9.2 Soft PitchIf the presence of water is indicated bysurface foam on heating, maintain a representative portion ofthe bulk sample at a temperature between 125 and

20、150C in anopen container until the surface is free of foam. Take care notto overheat, and remove heat source immediately when foamsubsides.9.3 TarAwet tar sample may either be dehydrated or usedas received as long as conditions stated in 9.3.1 and 9.3.2 aremet.9.3.1 Dehydrate a representative portio

21、n of the bulk sampleat atmospheric pressure using a simple side-arm distillationapparatus similar to the one in Test Method D 850 and stop thedistillation when the temperature reaches 170C. Separate anyoil from the water that has distilled over (if crystals are present,warm sufficiently to ensure th

22、eir solution) and thoroughly mixthe oil with the residual tar in the still after the latter has cooledto a moderate temperature.9.3.2 As an alternative to dehydration, the water content ofthe tar is determined by Test Method D95, and if the watercontent is less than 10 mass %, the QI content is corr

23、ected toa dry-tar basis (see 13.2). This alternative test method appliesonly to stable emulsions of water in tar, that is, no waterseparates when the tar sample is left undisturbed for 24 h atroom temperature.10. Preparation of Working Sample10.1 Hard PitchIf the pitch can be crushed at roomtemperat

24、ure, prepare a 20-g working sample by suitablecrushing, mixing, and quartering of a representative portion ofthe dry sample. The crushing can be done with a small jawcrusher and a mullite mortar and pestle. No particle in therepresentative sample shall be larger than 5 mm in anydimension. Crush this

25、 sample so that all of it will pass the250-m (No. 60) sieve but will have a minimum of fineparticles. Store the sieved working sample in a tightly closedcontainer and use within 24 h (see 10.4).10.2 Soft PitchIf the pitch is too soft to grind and toosticky to mix, heat a representative portion of th

26、e dry sample tothe lowest temperature that will permit passage through the600-m (No. 30) sieve, taking care to avoid excessive loss ofvolatile matter. Do not exceed 10 min for this melting period.Pass the heated sample through the 600-m sieve to removeforeign matter.10.3 TarHeat a representative por

27、tion of the dry tar to thelowest temperature that will permit passage through the600-m (No. 30) sieve, then filter through this sieve to removeforeign matter.10.4 Preservation of SamplesStore samples as largelumps or as solidified melts in closed containers. Discardworking samples 24 h after crushin

28、g and sieving as changes incomposition sometimes occur in pulverized pitch.11. Crucible Preparations11.1 If the crucible, after thorough cleaning (see 11.2), hasbeen used for less than six determinations, clean it as follows:Remove the mat, wash the crucible with distilled water, dry,and ignite in a

29、 muffle furnace for1hatabout 800C. Cool thecrucible slowly by placing it in a drying oven for 1 h afterremoval from the furnace to prevent cracking and place it in adesiccator while still warm.11.2 After the crucible has been used for six determinations,remove any residual ash from pores in the filt

30、ering area byboiling in 1 + 1 hydrochloric acid. Add equal volume ofconcentrated hydrochloric acid to distilled water. Then boil thecrucible in distilled water, thoroughly back wash with distilledwater, dry, and ignite as in 11.1.12. Procedure12.1 Make and record all weighings to the nearest 1 mg.12

31、.2 Select a sample mass that will yield between 75 and150 mg of matter insoluble in quinoline (QI), unless this wouldrequire less than the minimum acceptable sample mass of 0.5g, in which case 0.5 g shall be used.12.3 Transfer 1 6 0.1 g of dry CAFA to a clean, dry,filtering crucible. Weigh immediate

32、ly, and record the mass ofcrucible plus CAFA.12.4 Place the required amount of sample in a tared beakerand weigh. Calculate and record the mass of the sample.Transfer about half of the CAFAfrom the crucible to the beakerwith sample. Distribute the remaining CAFA evenly over thebottom of the crucible

33、.12.5 Add 25 mL of quinoline to the beaker while stirring themixture with a stirring rod or thermometer to break up lumps,then cover the beaker with a small watch glass. Place thebeaker and a wash bottle containing quinoline on an electrichot plate or in a water bath maintained at 75 6 5C. (Asuitabl

34、eweight can be used to keep the beaker from being upset in thewater bath.) Digest for at least 20 min. Occasionally stir thecontents of the beaker to promote digestion. Check for com-pleteness of digestion by inspecting the bottom of the beakerfor undigested pitch.12.6 Insert the filter tube with ad

35、apter in the filter flask, andplace the previously prepared and tared crucible in the adapter.D 2318 98 (2008)2Carefully add sufficient quinoline to the crucible to wet theCelite thoroughly. Apply suction and form a mat of evenlydistributed Celite. Maintain suction until filtration and subse-quent w

36、ashing with quinoline are completed.12.7 Pour the hot quinoline-pitch mixture into the crucible,while the Celite in the crucible is still wet, without disturbingthe mat. Stir the mixture in the beaker immediately beforepouring successive portions into the crucible. Allow the con-tents to drain compl

37、etely, but not to the extent that the insolublematerial on the filter appears substantially dry.12.8 Wash the beaker, thermometer, or stirring rod, andcrucible with small portions (2 to 3 mL each) of quinoline at 756 5C from the wash bottle. Pass all the washes through thefilter. Allow each wash to

38、pass almost completely through thefilter before the next is added. Use a suitable policeman tosweep the insoluble particles into the crucible. Repeat thequinoline washes until the filtrate is the same color as thequinoline used for washing. Twelve washings are usuallyenough.12.9 After the final quin

39、oline wash has passed through thefilter, fill the crucible with toluene and wash with a total of 75to 100 mL of toluene using suction. After all the toluene haspassed through the filter, wash the contents of the crucible inthe same manner with acetone. Maintain full suction for aminimum of 5 min aft

40、er the acetone wash. Remove thecrucible, and wipe the outside with a clean, soft cloth or tissuemoistened with acetone.12.9.1 During the quinoline and toluene washing do notallow the CAFA mat to get completely dry as the filtration ratemay decrease considerably.12.10 Place the filtering crucible in

41、the drying oven at 105to 110C and dry to constant weight (61 mg). When the hotcrucible is removed from the drying oven it shall have no odorof quinoline. Transfer the crucible to the desiccator and coolfor 25 min, then weigh and record the weight of the filteringcrucible and its contents (see 12.1).

42、12.10.1 Insoluble matter on the filter, after washing withacetone, should have no odor of quinoline, which is evidenceof insufficient washing. If odor of quinoline is detectable,repeat the entire determination.12.11 If the mass of matter insoluble in quinoline is lessthan 75 mg or more than 150 mg,

43、repeat the determination withan adjusted sample mass of not less than 0.5 g (see 12.2).13. Calculation13.1 Calculate the QI content as follows:QI, mass % 5 A 2 B!/C 3 100 (1)where:A = total mass of the filtering crucible and CAFA added tothe crucible, and matter insoluble in quinoline,B = initial ma

44、ss of the filtering crucible containing driedCAFA, andC = mass of sample taken for the determination.13.2 If the QI was determined on a wet tar sample (see9.3.2), correct the QI value determined in 13.1 to a dry-tar basisas follows:QI, mass % dry basis!5QI, mass % wet basis!100 2 water content of ta

45、r, mass %!3 100(2)14. Report14.1 Report the QI content to the nearest 0.1 %.15. Precision and Bias15.1 The following criteria shall be used for judging theacceptability of results (95 % probability):15.1.1 RepeatabilityDuplicate values by the same opera-tor shall not be considered suspect unless the

46、 determinedpercentages differ by more than 0.2 when the QI content is 4 %or less, or by more than 0.3 when the QI content is more than4%.15.1.2 ReproducibilityThe values reported by each of twolaboratories, representing the arithmetic average of duplicatedeterminations, shall not be considered suspe

47、ct unless thereported percentages differ by more than 0.3 when the QIcontent is 4 % or less, or by more than 0.6 when the QI contentis more than 4 %.15.2 BiasThis test method has no bias because the valueof quinoline-insouble is defined in terms of this test method.16.
