18、ved and protected in such a waythat they remain as nearly as possible in their original states.8. Safety Precautions8.1 The potential danger of high-voltage and X-ray radia-tion makes it mandatory for anyone operating X-ray apparatusto be thoroughly familiar with basic safety precautions.8.2 Place c

19、olorful signs displaying the international radia-tion symbol near X-ray equipment.8.3 When X-ray equipment is producing radiation, illumi-nate a conspicuous light. There should be no X rays if the bulbburns out. Equipment without this feature can be modified.8.4 Use a portable counter periodically t

Preliminary Testing of Analytical

21、 Sample9.1 It may be advantageous and even necessary to performother analytical investigative methods to aid in the rapididentification of crystalline components in water-formed de-posits. For other testing methods refer to Practices D 2331.10. Preparation of Sample10.1 ApparatusThe apparatus used f

22、or preparing thesample is as follows:10.1.1 Mullite or Agate Mortar.10.1.2 SievesA series of sieves from No. 100 mesh(150-m) to No. 325 mesh (45-m) as specified in Specifica-tion E 11.10.1.3 Soxhlet Extractor.10.2 ProcedureThe following procedure is to be used inpreparing the sample:10.2.1 Air-dry m

23、oist samples before grinding. If there isspecial need to preserve the nature or composition of theoriginal deposit, special handling must be observed. Handledeliquescent deposits in a dry-box atmosphere. Handle samplessubject to oxidation in an inert atmosphere.10.2.2 If samples contain oil or greas

24、e, prepare achloroform-insoluble fraction by first drying the specimen for1 h at 105C and then extracting for 2 h using chloroform in aSoxhlet extracting apparatus. Air-dry to remove solvent fromspecimen.10.2.3 Grind the sample in a mullite or agate (mechanical orhand) mortar until approximately 98

25、% passes a No. 325 mesh(45-m) sieve (see Note 1). Remove fragments of fiber, wood,and metal. If the specimen is not sufficiently brittle at ordinarytemperatures to be ground to a fine powder or if it is suspectedthat certain crystallites may be plastically deformed during thegrinding, the deposit ca

26、n be subjected to dry-ice temperaturesand then ground immediately. Grind hydrated samples underalcohol, if indicated, to prevent structural damage.NOTE 1Most materials found in water-formed deposits are suffi-ciently brittle to be reduced to 45 m and this crystallite dimension willgenerally give goo

27、d identifiable diffraction patterns. However, it may notalways be practical or possible to reduce certain materials to 45 m. Oftengood diffraction results can be obtained from larger crystallite sizes (No.200 mesh (75-m) to No. 270 mesh (53-m). The only practical test forproper grain size is in repr

28、oducibility of diffraction line intensities. Theideal grain size may be in the subsieve range as small as 1 m, butreduction to this size may be impractical.11. Selective Segregation of Analytical Sample11.1 Chemical and Physical Treatment of SamplesDepending on the contents of the sample, it may or

29、may not benecessary to concentrate or segregate components by chemicalor physical treatment (see Note 2). Many crystalline materialsproduce sharp diffraction patterns and they are identifiablewhen present to 1 or 2 % in a mixture. Other substances thatcan be readily identified alone are difficult to

30、 detect in mixtureseven when they are present to the extent of 50%. Separation ofphases by density, acid solubility, or magnetic propertiesfollowed by diffraction analysis of the separated phase(s) mayhelp to identify various deposit components. Separation treat-ment is also helpful in resolving lin

31、e coincidence in complexmixtures. If concentration or segregation is not deemed neces-sary, disregard any treatment and proceed in accordance withSection 10. When treatment is necessary, use one or more ofthe following chemical or physical treatments described in 11.2to 11.7. It must be pointed out

32、that the treatments provide noabsolute separation, but serve only to concentrate or partiallysegregate specific components.NOTE 2It should be emphasized that water-formed deposits oftenoccur in clearly defined layers and that physical separation at the time ofsampling is more advantageous than later

33、 treatment.11.2 Water-Insoluble FractionThis treatment removes thewater soluble from the water insoluble components. Solubleconstituents would include most sodium, potassium, andlithium compounds (see Note 3).11.2.1 Weigh 0.5 g or more of sample that has been groundand passed through a No. 100 mesh

34、(150-m) sieve. Add 100mL of water to a beaker containing the powdered specimen.Heat to boiling and then cool. Allow 30 min of reaction time,filter through a 45-m membrane filter, wash, and air-dry theresidue. Regrind to pass through a No. 325 mesh (45-m)sieve.NOTE 3The filtrate may be evaporated and

35、 the residue examined bydiffraction. Although the crystalline structure may have changed from theoriginal sample, it is often helpful in identifying simplified variations ofthe original crystals. Sodium phosphate compounds found dispersed inboiler deposits are often noncrystalline or are so complex

36、that they are noteasily identified. The water soluble residue from these deposits afterevaporation is often more easily identified.D 934 80 (2003)211.3 Hydrochloric Acid-Insoluble FractionThis treatmentremoves carbonates, phosphates, and hydroxides. Partial de-composition occurs to some silicates su

37、ch as serpentine,xonotlite, and analcite. Components such as anhydrite undergoonly partial dissolution.11.3.1 ReagentThe reagent used for this treatment is asfollows:11.3.1.1 Hydrochloric Acid (1 + 6)Mix 1 volume of con-centrated HCl (sp gr 1.19) with 6 volumes of water.11.3.2 Weigh approximately 0.

38、5 g of the sample that hasbeen ground and passed through a No. 100 mesh (150-m)sieve. Add 100 ml of HCl (1 + 6) to a beaker containing thepowdered specimen. Allow 30 min of reaction time, filterthrough a membrane filter, wash and air-dry the residue.Regrind to pass through a No. 325 mesh (45-m) siev

39、e.11.4 Nitric Acid-Insoluble FractionThis treatment re-moves all the components indicated in 11.3 in addition tocopper and most copper compounds.11.4.1 ReagentThe reagent used for this treatment is asfollows:11.4.1.1 Nitric Acid (1 + 13)Mix 1 volume of concen-trated HNO3(sp gr 1.42) with 13 volumes

40、of water).11.4.2 Weigh 0.5 g or more of the sample which has beenground and passed through a No. 100 mesh (150-m) sieve.Add 100 ml of HNO3(1 + 13) to a beaker containing thepowdered specimen. Allow 30 min of reaction time, filterthrough a membrane filter, wash and air-dry the residue.Regrind to pass

41、 through a No. 325 mesh (45-m) sieve.11.5 Density Fraction This treatment separates com-pounds in water-formed deposits which differ appreciably indensity such as copper oxide and calcite.11.5.1 Weigh 0.5 g or more of sample that has been groundand passed through a 100 mesh (150-m) sieve. Add 100 mL

42、of water to a beaker containing the powdered specimen. Stirthe liquid with a mechanical stirrer, but do not use a magneticstirrer (Note 4). The denser particles will settle to the bottomand the less dense particles will remain suspended. Withcontinued stirring, withdraw sufficient liquid and filter

43、througha membrane filter. Varying the speed of the stirrer will put moreor less of the powdered sample into suspension. Air-dry theresidue and regrind to pass through a No. 325 mesh (45-m)sieve.NOTE 4A magnetic stirrer would attract any particle that was mag-netic and might prevent segregation of pa

44、rticles of different densities.11.6 Magnetic and Nonmagnetic FractionThis treatmentseparates the magnetic components from the nonmagneticcomponents such as magnetite from hydroxyapatite.11.6.1 Weigh 0.5 g or more of sample that has been groundand passed through a No. 325 mesh (45-m) sieve. Add 100mL

45、 of water to a beaker containing the powdered specimen.Stir with a mechanical stirrer for several minutes and thenattach a magnet to the outside of the beaker (see Note 4). Whilestirring continues, magnetic components will be attracted to thearea in front of the magnet, while the nonmagnetic compone

46、ntswill remain in suspension. After 30 min, pour off the liquidwhile the magnet remains in place and filter. The residueshould be essentially nonmagnetic. Remove the magnet fromthe side of the beaker, rinse the magnetic portion down the sideof the beaker, swirl, and filter. Air-dry the residues and

47、regrindto pass through a No. 325 mesh (45-m) sieve.11.7 Brittle Fraction This treatment concentrates themore brittle or friable components from those that are lessbrittle or less friable such as calcite from silica.11.7.1 ApparatusThe apparatus necessary for this treat-ment is as follows:11.7.1.1 El

48、ectrical Mechanical Sieve Shaker.11.7.2 Weigh 0.5 g or more of sample and hand grind in amullite mortar until the largest particle size is approximately 1mm in diameter. Set up the sieve-shaker apparatus with fourdifferent size sieves; No. 100 mesh (150-m), No. 140 mesh(105-m), No. 200 mesh (75-m) a

49、nd No. 325 mesh (45-m).Shake the sample for several minutes and then collect thevarious fractions from each sieve. The most friable portion ofthe deposit should have passed to the bottom-most sieve. Eachfraction may be examined separately after regrinding to pass aNo. 325 mesh (45-m) sieve.PRACTICE ACAMERA12.
