24、 of ethylcellulose.18. Significance and Use18.1 Sodium chloride is a major by-product of the ethylcel-lulose manufacturing process. This test is a measure of thepurity of ethylcellulose. Chlorides may also affect solutionproperties.19. Apparatus19.1 Titration pH Meter.19.2 Mercury-Mercurous Sulfate

25、Reference ElectrodeTheelectrode uses a potassium sulfate electrolyte to avoid chloridecontamination from a chloride electrolyte.19.3 Silver-Silver Chloride ElectrodeThe electrode iscoated with silver chloride periodically. Prepare the electrodeby polishing with fine steel wool, briefly soaking it in

26、 5 %potassium cyanide solution, and rinsing it with water. Coat theelectrode with silver chloride by electrodeposition from 0.1 Npotassium chloride solution using a 3-V dry cell and a platinumwire electrode. Connect the silver electrode to the positive poleof the battery and electrolyze for 20 s; th

27、en reverse theconnections for 5 s. Repeat these operations twice, and finally,chloridize the silver electrode for 20 s at the positive terminal.Store the silver electrode in 0.1 N potassium chloride solution.Rinse the electrode with water and wipe it with a soft tissuebefore each titration.19.4 Salt

28、 Bridge for Reference ElectrodeFig. 1 shows oneconfiguration in use. Exact dimensions are not important.

35、ntermittent additions of 0.1 mL. It is advisable to allow longerperiods of time between additions of titrant as the end point isapproached to avoid passing the equivalence point.

40、lectrical, so that the bath can be maintained at 145 to 150C.27. Reagents27.1 Bromine SolutionDissolve 5 mL of bromine in 145mL of the potassium acetate (KC2H3O2) solution. Prepare thebromine solution fresh daily in a hood to remove brominevapors.27.2 Carbon DioxidePass the CO2through a bubblecounte

41、r and a dry trap, and then through a pressure regulatorconsisting of a glass tee whose vertical arm extends almost tothe bottom of a 254-mm (10-in.) column of water. A screwclamp shall be attached to the thin-walled rubber tubingconnecting the horizontal arm of the tee with the boiling flask.This ar

42、rangement permits regulation of the flow of gas andallows any excess gas to escape. Nitrogen may be used in placeof CO2.27.3 Formic Acid (90 %).27.4 Gelatin CapsulesGelatin capsules of a suitable sizeto hold from 50 to 60 mg of the dried sample will be required.27.5 Hydriodic Acid (sp gr 1.70)5Hydri

43、odic acid (HI)forms with water a constant-boiling mixture (boiling point 126to 127C) that contains 57 % HI. The concentration of HI in thereagent used should be not less than 56.5 %. The blankdetermination, which is affected primarily by free iodine in thereagent, should require no more than 0.5 mL

44、of 0.1 N sodiumthiosulfate (Na2S2O3) standard solution. If necessary, the acidmay be purified by adding to it a small amount of redphosphorus and boiling for 20 to 30 min in a hood whilepassing a stream of CO2into the liquid. Distillation is thencarried out behind a safety-glass shield in a hood, us

45、ing anall-glass apparatus with a slow stream of CO2running throughthe receiver. Under some conditions, the poisonous gas phos-phine (PH3) is formed during distillation, and this may unitewith molecular iodine to form phosphorus triiodide (PI3) whichmay explode on contact with air. It is, therefore,

46、advisable tokeep the current of CO2going after the distillation is ended anduntil the apparatus has cooled; this will prevent air from beingsucked into the apparatus. Put the purified HI in small, brown,glass-stoppered bottles, previously swept out with CO2, andseal the stoppers with molten paraffin

47、. Store in a dark place. Tominimize decomposition of HI due to contact with air, run CO2into the bottle while withdrawing portions of the acid for use.27.6 Phosphorus Slurry (0.06 g/100 mL)Add about 0.06 gof red phosphorus to 100 mLof water. Shake well before using.27.7 Potassium Acetate Solution (1

49、 Sodium Thiosulfate, Standard Solution (0.1 N)Dissolve 25 g of sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O35H2O) in 200mL of water and dilute to 1 L. Use freshly boiled and cooledwater. It is preferable to allow the solution to stand for a fewdays before standardization. Standardize the solution against0.1000 N potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) solution preparedby dissolving exactly 4.9037 g of K2Cr2O7(National Instituteof Standards and Technology Standard Sample No. 136) inwater and diluting to 1 L in a volumetric flask.
