Summary of Test Method3.1 This

6、 test method is a modification of the well-known Kjeldahl procedure. In this test method, compounds that yield theirnitrogen as ammonia are digested with concentrated sulfuric acid, using sodium sulfate to raise the boiling point, and mercuricoxide as a catalyst. The organic matter is destroyed and

7、the nitrogen is fixed as ammonium sulfate in the excess acid.4. Significance and Use4.1 The purpose of this test method is to determine the amount of organic nitrogen present within a sample of electricalinsulation paper or paperboard. Nitrogen content is used to determine if the paper or paperboard

8、 has been chemically treated towithstand higher than normal operating temperatures. Such a paper or paperboard is referred to in the industry as “thermallyupgraded.” A paper or paperboard that is thermally upgraded can withstand higher operating temperatures and allow the electricalequipment to have

9、 a longer useful life span.5. Apparatus5.1 Kjeldahl Apparatus, with 500 or 800-mL flask and a digestion rack, an efficient bulb or scrubber type of trap to ensure thatno nonvolatile alkali is carried over, the trap being connected to the flask with a rubber stopper and to the water-cooled condenserf

The condenser tube shall be made of alkali-resistant glass or block tin with the discharge endconnected to a bent glass delivery tube, the lower end of which is drawn out to a bore of about 3 mm.5.2 Other Apparatus500-mL Erlenmeyer flask, 100-mL graduated cylinder, 50-m

21、0.1 N hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution is satisfactory.7. Sampling7.1 Obtain the sample to be tested in accordance with Practice D585.8. Test Specimen8.1 From the sample of the paper or paperboard, weigh, to the nearest 5 mg, a 2-g specimen consisting of small strips or piecesabout 1 cm2. At the sam

22、e time, weigh a specimen for the determination of moisture in accordance with Test Method D644.9. Procedure9.1 Transfer the test specimen to the Kjeldahl flask and add 10 g of Na2SO4, 0.7 g of HgO, and 25 mL of H2SO4 (sp gr 1.84).It is convenient to premix the Na2SO4 and the HgO. Agitate gently unti

23、l all the specimen is wet by the acid. Support the flask inan inclined position in a well-ventilated hood and heat the contents with a small flame or electric heater, taking care not to applyheat to the flask above the liquid level.An asbestos-cement board with a hole cut to the proper diameter for

24、the flask is suggested.At first the mixture will froth and turn black. Heat cautiously until frothing has ceased; then increase the heat until the mixtureboils gently. The black color gradually fades through brown to a colorless or almost colorless solution. Continue heating for about1 h after the s

25、olution becomes colorless.NOTE 3To minimize the inevitable acid condensation in the hood with this procedure, remove most of the acid fumes through a glass tube connectedto a water aspirator.9.2 Allow the solution to cool. It usually will solidify upon cooling to room temperature. When the solution

26、starts to solidifyor has cooled to room temperature, cautiously add about 300 mL of water and 25 mL of the Na2SO4 solution to precipitate themercury. Allow to stand 5 to 10 min with occasional shaking.NOTE 4It has been reported that mercury sometimes volatilizes and amalgamates with tin condenser tu

27、bes commonly used in the Kjeldahl apparatus.If the solution is allowed to stand a few minutes after the addition of the Na2SO4 solution, volatilization of the mercury is likely to be negligible (2)9.3 Add 50 mL of the boric acid and indicator solution to a 500-mL Erlenmeyer flask, connect the glass

28、delivery tube to thedischarge end of the condenser, and adjust the assembly so the tube barely dips beneath the surface of the acid.9.4 Add the anti-bumping material to the flask, be sure the bulb trap is properly connected to the condenser, and quickly andcarefully pour 55 mLof cold NaOH solution d

32、of the flask.Swirl the flask slowly and then more rapidly in order to mix the acid with the alkali. Start heating the flask immediately and distillabout 150 mL into the receiver. Keep the temperature of the receiver below 40 C during the distillation.NOTE 5Fifty millilitres of the boric acid and ind

33、ication solution will absorb about 95 mg of nitrogen as ammonia (2). Twenty-five millilitres wouldbe sufficient to contain the nitrogen in a 2-g specimen of most papers.9.6 Disconnect the delivery tube from the end of the condenser and remove the heat from the flask. Do not remove the heatbefore dis

34、connecting the delivery tube because otherwise it is possible that some of the boric acid maywill be sucked back. Rinsethe delivery tube into the flask, dilute the contents of the flask to about 250 mL, and titrate to a pink end point (pH about 4.9) withthe 0.1 N acid. During the titration, the colo

35、r changes from green to gray to pink, the intensity of the pink increasing to red withfurther addition of acid.9.7 Make a blank determination, carrying through the entire procedure using 1 g of sucrose or dextrose in place of the paperspecimen.10.

38、TIONAL INFORMATIONX1.1 A large number of determinations or a limited sample may make makes the Hengar method more attractive in some cases,but the results shouldare not be reported as complying with Test Method D982 in which mercuric oxide is the preferred catalyst.The method, proposed by Henwood an

39、d Garey (3), has been further perfected by the Hengar Co. of Philadelphia, Pa., who haveprovided special apparatus for it. This modification requires only about 0.1 g of sample; uses 0.02 N acid and alkali, and employs“selenized granules” as a catalyst. It is claimed that the Hengar method, using sp

40、ecial apparatus, requires only about 10 mindigestion with H2SO4. However, each operator should determine determines the minimum time of digestion necessary for completeoxidation under the conditions he employs.X1.2 Nitrates, nitro compounds, and so forth, would be expected to occur so infrequently i
