2、ast revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determin

3、ation of pentaneand toluene insolubles in used lubricating oils.1.2 Procedure A covers the determination of insolubleswithout the use of coagulant in the pentane. It provides anindication of the materials that can readily be separated fromthe oil-solvent mixtures by centrifuging.1.3 Procedure B cove

4、rs the determination of insolubles inoils containing detergents and employs a coagulant for both thepentane and toluene insolubles. In addition to the materialsseparated by using Procedure A, this coagulation procedureseparates some finely divided materials that may be suspendedin the oil.NOTE 1Resu

5、lts obtained by Procedures A and B should not becompared since they usually give different values. The same procedureshould be employed when comparing values obtained periodically on anoil in use or when comparing results determined by two or morelaboratories.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to

If the original container is of opaquematerial, or if it is more than three-fourths full, transfer theentire sample to a clear glass bottle having a capacity at leastone third greater than the volume of the sample

36、, and transfer alltraces of sediment from the original container to the bottle byviolent agitation of portions of the sample in the originalcontainer. After complete suspension of all sediment, strain thesample or a convenient aliquot through a 150-m (No. 100)sieve to remove large contaminating part

Stopper the tube and shake until themixture is homogeneous. Do not allow the mixture to standmore than 3 h.9

39、.1.2 Remove the stopper, and using a wash bottle having afine jet, wash all insolubles from the stopper into the centrifugetube with a minimum of pentane. Balance the weights of eachpair of filled centrifuge tubes, place them in the centrifuge onopposite sides of the head, and centrifuge for 20 6 1

40、min at arate calculated in accordance with 6.2, sufficient to produce arelative centrifugal force (rcf) between 600 and 700 at the tipsof the whirling tubes. (See Table 2.) Carefully decant thesupernatant liquid without disturbing or dispersing the precipi-tate, leaving not more than 3 mL of liquid

Dislodge andbre
