Someknowledge of the expected p

17、H may be required to indicatewhich buffers (pH values) will be required for use.7.2.2 Commercially available pH buffers may be used ifdesired. Common pH values are 4.0, 7.0, and 10.0. Purchasethe ones appropriate for samples being tested.8. Sampling8.1 Acceptance SamplingAcceptance sampling shall be

18、 inaccordance with Practice D 585.8.2 Sampling for Other PurposesThe sampling and thenumber of the test specimens depends on the purpose of thetesting. Practice E 122 is recommended.9. Test Specimen9.1 A composite evaluation is considered appropriate forthese test methods unless otherwise specified.

19、9.2 Take an equal number of sheets (one or more) from eachtest unit, but not less than a total of five sheets, and combine thesheets from all test units. Holding the sheets at one end, cut andcross-cut the other end into 5 to 10-mm square.9.3 If the paper is more than 0.012 in. (0.30 mm) inthickness

20、, or greater in apparent density than 0.90 g/cm3, thespecimen must be split by delamination into thickness of notover 0.008 in. (0.20 mm) before it is cut into the small squares.9.4 From each quantity of cut paper, weigh a test specimenof 1 6 0.01 g, using an equal amount of material from eachlayer

21、in cases where the sample has been delaminated asrequired in 9.3. Do not include any material in the specimenthat has been touched by the fingers.9.5 Perform determinations at least in duplicate. In specialcases where it is necessary to evaluate different portions of thelot separately, take a portio

22、n from each test unit of the sampleand perform duplicate determinations on each portion indepen-dently, using the procedure specified for the composite.10. Calibration10.1 Calibration of the pH meter must be done followingapplicable sections of Test Methods D 1293 or Test MethodE 70. The instruction

23、 manual of the specific pH meter must beconsulted for any operations specific to that pH meter.11. Procedure11.1 Test Method ApH of Paper (Unfiltered Extract) AfterExtraction for1hinCold (25 6 5C) Water:11.1.1 Transfer the test specimen to a 100-mL beaker. Addabout 5 mL of cold (256 5C) distilled wa

24、ter and maceratewith a flattened glass stirring rod until the specimen is wet.11.1.2 Add more water to bring the volume to 70 mL, stirwell, cover with a watch glass, and allow to stand for1hat256 5C. The specimen may stand for 3 or 4 h (1)7if nocontamination occurs.11.1.3 When making referee or rese

25、arch tests, pass purenitrogen or CO2-free air through the solution until the pH ismeasured.NOTE 1Air may be cleaned by passing it through a gas washing bottlecontaining at least 200 mL of 3N H2SO4and then through a tower orU-tube containing ascarite or soda lime, 120 to 150 mm long.11.1.4 Measure th

26、e pH on the prepared extract (see 11.1.1through 11.1.3) as specified in 11.3.11.2 Test Method B pH of Paper (Unfiltered Extract) AfterExtraction for1hinBoiling Water:11.2.1 Transfer the test specimen to a 125-mL Erlenmeyerflask. Add about 70 mL of distilled water, stir well, and attachthe condenser.

27、NOTE 2Water-cooled condensers are desirable. The air condensersmay be used if the temperature of the hot plate can be controlled asindicated in 11.2.2.11.2.2 Place the flask on the hot plate. Reduce the hot platetemperature as necessary using the hot plate controls and boilgently for 1 h, taking car

28、e not to exceed the capacity of thecondenser. The temperature should be maintained between 98and 100C (208 and 212F).11.2.3 At the end of the extraction period cool the flask inrunning water (to about 35 to 40C), with the condenser tube inplace and its upper end protected by a loosely fitted smallbe

29、aker. Replace the condenser with a glass stopper and cool atroom temperature. Transfer the mixture to a 100-mL beaker.11.2.4 Transfer the extracts for referee or research tests tothe 100-mL beakers while hot. Pass nitrogen or CO2-free airthrough these extracts while cooling and until the pH ismeasur

30、ed.11.2.5 Measure the pH on the prepared extract (see 11.2.1through 11.2.4) as specified in 11.3.11.3 pH Measurement:11.3.1 Keep a nitrogen or CO2-free air cap over the solutionduring pH measurement. Stir and measure to 0.1 pH unit thepH of the unfiltered mixture in accordance with the instructionsf

31、or the pH meter used.11.3.2 Through observation, make certain that no plies ofpaper adhere to the electrodes during pH measurement.11.3.3 Before recording the pH, leave the electrodes in thesolution until there is no measurable drift in 30 s.11.3.4 Wash the electrodes with distilled water after each

32、measurement and recalibrate frequently.11.3.5 Keep the electrodes, buffer, test solution, and washwater at the same temperature and set the compensator for thistemperature.12. Interpretation of Results12.1 The pH of an extract of a paper sample indicates theextent to which components of the paper al

33、ter the hydrogen-hydroxyl equilibrium of pure water. In the case where the papersample consists of highly purified cellulose having a low levelof inorganic or noncellulosic organic impurities or additives,the alteration of this equilibrium will be slight, and a pH near7, the neutrality point on the

34、pH scale is likely. Additionally,the difference in pH measured by the two test methodsdescribed will be small.D 778 97 (2002)212.2 In cases where inorganic or noncellulosic organicmaterials were present in the raw materials from which a paperwas made, or were deliberately added during processing, th

35、epH of the resulting paper extract will generally show greaterdeviation from pH 7 than in the case of the highly purifiedcellulosic paper described in 12.1. Further, the direction of thedeviation from pH 7 and its magnitude cannot be predictedwithout information regarding the identity and quantity o

36、fnoncellulosic materials present. In addition, the relationship ofthe results from the two test methods cannot be predicted forsuch samples.12.3 When these test methods are referenced in specifica-tions, an understanding of the noncellulosic materials presentand the specific information needs of the

37、 buyer and seller mustbe considered in deciding whether Test Method A or TestMethod B, or both, must be required.12.4 When these test methods are used for analysis ofmaterials of unknown origin or prior history, use of both TestMethods A and B is highly recommended, as suggested in 1.6.12.5 It must

38、be clear to the user of these test methods that anunderstanding of the composition of the paper being tested andthe specific information required are the only unequivocalfactors that can be used to determine whether Test Method A orTest Method B, or both, are best suited for a given analysis.12.6 Ex

39、amples of the relationship between results from TestMethod A and Test Method B for specific papers are in12.6.1-12.6.7. Additional information may be found in thetechnical literature for those wishing to pursue this topic.12.6.1 The pH of the extract of a paper sized with rosin andalum is typically

40、lower by 0.5 to 0.6 pH units when tested byTest Method B in comparison with data when Test Method Ais used. This is believed to be caused by hydrolysis of thesizing components in boiling water to release hydrogen ions oracidic materials (1)8.12.6.2 On the other hand, it has been reported thatmelamin

41、e-formaldehyde resin hydrolyzes during extraction byTest Method B to release alkaline products that tend to increasethe pH value of the extract when compared to the resultmeasured by Test Method A (1).12.6.3 The consequence of 12.6.1 and 12.6.2 is that when apaper is made containing rosin and alum s

42、izing as well asmelamine-formaldehyde resin, the pH measured by TestMethod A may be higher than, lower than, or nearly equal tothat measured by Test Method B, depending upon the relativeamounts of the various noncellulosic materials present.12.6.4 Other materials are believed to exhibit similar ef-f

43、ects.12.6.5 Some believe that the hydrolysis occurring when TestMethod B is used simulates changes that might occur duringnatural aging, and that values obtained by Test Method Bcorrelate with paper-ink reactions in printing (2, 3).12.6.6 Barrow (4), however, found that Test Method Acorrelated bette

44、r with his accelerated aging tests.12.6.7 In published data relating to the use of pH measure-ment by Test Method A or B in studying paper stability,Palenius (5), Kelly (6), and Wilson (7, 8) and co-workers reportvalues on a variety of papers where results by Test Method Brange from 2.5 units higher

45、 to 1.5 units lower than thosedetermined by Test Method A.12.7 It must be emphasized that no generalizations regard-ing the relationship of results by Test Method A and B ispossible, nor can any simple rules of interpretation be pro-vided.13.
