5、5 Test Method for Interfacial Tension of ElectricalInsulating Oils of Petroleum Origin Against Water by theDrop-Weight Method3. Summary of Test Method3.1 Interfacial Tension is determined by measuring theforce necessary to detach a planar ring of platinum wire fromthe surface of the liquid of higher

6、 surface tension, that is,upward from the water-oil interface. To calculate the interfacialtension, the force so measured is corrected by an empiricallydetermined factor which depends upon the force applied, thedensities of both oil and water, and the dimensions of the ring.Measurements are made und

7、er rigidly standardized nonequi-librium conditions in which the measurement is completedwithin 60 s after formation of the interface.4. Significance and Use4.1 Interfacial tension measurements on electrical insulatingoils provide a sensitive means of detecting small amounts ofsoluble polar contamina

8、nts and products of oxidation. A highvalue for new mineral insulating oil indicates the absence ofmost undesirable polar contaminants. The test is frequentlyapplied to service-aged oils as an indication of the degree ofdeterioration.5. Apparatus (Figs. 1 and 2)5.1 Tensiometer3Force measurement on th

10、 or anyother means of precisely changing vertical position of thesample.5.2 Rings made of platinum or platinum-iridium alloy maybe used. The ring should be welded into a continuous circle andattached to at least two parallel stirrups. Circumference of thering should be minimum 40 mm and diameter of

11、the ring wireshould be about 0.3 mm. Ratio of the ring major radius (R) andthe wire radius (r) should be known (R/r) to at least threesignificant figures. Stirrups should be at least 25 mm long.5.2.1 The ring may be suspended from or rigidly fixed intothe tensiometer force measuring system.5.3 Sampl

Preparation of Apparatus7.1 Glass containers can be cleaned by rinsing in xylene,hexane or ano

16、ther suitable hydrocarbon solvent, followed by arinse in acetone or methyl ethyl ketone. Following these rinsesthey can be cleaned using detergent in hot water and rinsedthoroughly with tap and then distilled water. Dry the glassvessel if not for immediate use.7.2 The ring should be cleaned by immer

17、sing it in a smallcontainer of xylene, hexane or another suitable hydrocarbonsolvent for at least 5 s while spinning the ring back and forth.Next, repeat this rinse using a container filled with acetone ormethyl ethyl ketone. Flame the ring in a gas flame, againspinning it to obtain rapid, uniform h

18、eating. The ring shouldbarely glow orange and should be heated for no more than 5 s.Clean the ring immediately before each measurement.7.3 The tensiometer should be leveled by placing a bubblelevel device on the sample platform, if not equipped with one,and adjusting the tensiometer base until the p

19、latform is level.8. Calibration of Apparatus8.1 Calibrate the tensiometer against known weights andadjust its zero point according to the procedure of its manu-facturer. Make certain that all portions of the ring are in thesame horizontal plane.9. Procedure9.1 Preparation of Test Specimens:9.1.1 Obt

20、ain a representative test specimen of liquid, at least25 mL, to be studied in accordance with Test Method D 923.9.1.2 Obtain a fresh aliquot of distilled water (50 to 75 mL)for interfacial tension measurements.9.1.3 Test specimens should be covered, capped, or sealedimmediately after they are obtain

21、ed. Atmospheric dust andvapor can easily contaminate water, as can the growth ofbacteria. Store test specimen in the dark at ambient tempera-ture.9.2 Determination of Test Specimen Density:9.2.1 Determine test specimen density at 25 6 1C using aliquid pycnometer or other density measuring device to6

22、0.001 g/cm3.9.3 Interfacial Tension Measurement:9.3.1 Introduce distilled water at a temperature of 256 1Cinto a clean sample container to a depth of 10 to 15 mm. Placeit on the tensiometer platform so that the ring comes down inthe center of the container and is not close to any wall. Makesure no f

23、oam is present at the water surface. If foam is visible,discard the water. Foam indicates that the water is contami-nated or that the vessel is not clean.9.3.2 Clean the ring and mount it in the tensiometer. Followthe manufacturers instructions on zeroing the ring in air.9.3.3 Raise the platform unt

24、il the ring is immersed to adepth not to exceed 6 mm into the water.9.3.4 Slowly lower the platform and follow the manufactur-ers instructions on how to adjust the tensiometer reading.Increase torque on the reading dial while maintaining thetorsion arm in the zero position. As the film of liquid adh

25、eringto the ring approaches the breaking point, proceed slowly withadjustments. This will ensure that the torsion beam will be inthe zero position when rupture occurs. Rupture the surface bycontinuing to increase the force and lowering the vessel.Record the reading when rupture occurs.9.3.5 Surface

26、tension is calculated as described in 10.2,using the value 0.997 g/cm3for (D-d), the difference in densitybetween water and air. A value of 7173 mN/m must beobtained. If low values are found, clean and rinse the samplecontainer thoroughly and obtain a fresh sample of water fromFIG. 1 Interfacial Ten

If low surface tension values arestill obtained, check calibration of the tensiometer and examinethe ring to ensure the plane of the ring is parallel to the watersurface.9.3.6 Carefully layer the oil on

28、the surface of the water (withthe ring submerged) until a depth of at least 10 mm is reached.One such procedure is to pipette the oil onto the surface slowlyso that minimum mixing occurs and so that oil does not touchthe surface of the submerged ring. Make sure that the oil is notso deep as to cover

29、 the ring cross bar.9.3.7 Allow the oil-water interface to age for 30 6 1 s afterthe last of the oil has been layered onto the water.9.3.8 Lower the platform as in 9.3.4 and record the value atrupture. Time this part of the measurement so that, as nearly aspossible, 30 s are required to draw the rin

30、g through theinterface. Proceed very slowly as the breaking point is ap-proached, since the break is usually sluggish (due to viscosityof the oil). Complete the entire operation, from the time ofpouring the oil onto the water until the interface ruptures, inabout 60 6 10 s.10. Calculation10.1 Calcul
