6、or Silver Tarnishing by Paper43. Terminology3.1 DefinitionsDefinitions shall be in accordance withTerminology D 1968 and the Dictionary of Paper.54. Summary of Test Methods4.1 Method B, semiquantitative method, involves the reduc-tion of various forms of sulfur to hydrogen sulfide and thedevelopment

7、 of a dark spot of lead sulfide on the filter paperimpregnated with lead acetate. The intensity of the spot iscompared with spots developed from standards and is propor-tional to the concentration. No colorimeter or spectrophotom-eter is needed for this method.4.2 Method A, the quantitative method,

8、uses the identicalreduction system to generate hydrogen sulfide, but the sulfideis precipitated by alkaline cadmium sulfate and then convertedto methylene blue by reaction with acidicp-aminodimethylaniline in the presence of ferric chloride. Themethylene blue is measured spectrophotometrically and t

9、heintensity is compared with standards prepared in similarmanner.5. Significance and Use5.1 The test methods outlined are not necessarily a measureof how much a given test material will tarnish polished metals.When tested by these methods, paper that has less than0.0008 % reducible sulfur, may be as

10、sumed to be nontarnishingas far as sulfur is concerned, but if more than 0.0008 %, thisdoes not necessarily mean that tarnishing will occur, becausesulfur compounds which may not cause staining are reduced bythe treatment with the subsequent evolution of hydrogensulfide. If more than 0.0008 % reduci

11、ble sulfur is found, or ifthe effect of that or other materials causing stains on silver isdesired, the paper should be subjected to an acceleratedtarnishing test (see Test Method D 2043).NOTE 1If the pH of the paper is low (for example, 4.0 to 4.5 (coldextraction) as little as 0.0002 % of reducible

12、 sulfur may cause tarnishingof imitation gold bronze prints; whereas, if the pH were higher, (forexample, on brush-coated art paper) a much higher quantity of sulfurmight be tolerated.5.2 The test methods described do not give the total sulfurcontent, nor the total reducible sulfur content, nor are

13、theyintended to. They are limited to the reducible sulfur contentdetermined under the conditions of the test (that is, a fairlymild reduction system).35.2.1 Those forms of sulfur believed to be “reducible” underthe test conditions are (1) sulfide (released by the acid, notactually reduced), (2) elem

14、ental sulfur, (3) thiosulfate, (4) otherpolythionates or polysulfides, and (5) perhaps sulfite. Sulfate isexcluded.1These test methods are under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D06 onPaper and Paper Products and are the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D06.92on Test Methods.Current edition a

32、ds,” by JosephRosin, D. Van Nostrand Co., Inc., New York, NY, and the “United StatesPharmacopeia.”FIG. 1 Reaction Apparatus (Quantitative Determination).D 984 97 (2002)210.2.1 Measure 10 mL of the concentrated H3PO4(sp gr1.69) into the dropping funnel and 75 mL of the cadmiumhydroxide absorption sus

33、pension (which is swirled beforepouring and should include some solids) into the darkened100-mL volumetric collecting flask. Start bubbling the nitrogenat the rate of about 5 bubbles per second, taking care to ensurethat there are no leaks. Use top quality sulfur-free stopcockgrease at the joints an

34、d if necessary tie the joints with clampsor rubber bands. After the nitrogen has been adjusted submergethe delivery tube into the absorption suspension in the 100-mLvolumetric flask and put the ice bath in place, taking care toassure that the tip is to the bottom of the flask (that is,submerged as d

35、eeply as possible).10.2.2 Add the 10 mL of concentrated H3PO4from thedropping funnel. Leave a small amount of acid in the tip, closethe stopcock on the funnel, and start heating the mixture to aboil. Take care that the absorption solution does not back up inthe delivery tube while the mixture is hea

36、ting. It may benecessary to adjust the nitrogen flow to prevent this.10.2.3 Discontinue heating after 45 min, remove the volu-metric flask together with the side-arm adapter by dislodging itat the condenser, and stop the nitrogen flow. Keep the adaptertogether with the flask until the amine reagent

37、is added in thecolor development step because the cadmium sulfide oftenhangs up in the tube tip. The sample should not be stored in thismanner for more than 1 h.10.3 Preparation of Calibration StandardsAdd 75 mL ofthe cadmium hydroxide absorption suspension to each of five100-mL darkened volumetric

38、flasks and place in the constanttemperature bath (20 to 25C) if available. Pipet 1, 2, 5, and 10mL, respectively, of the sodium sulfide standard workingsolution into four of the volumetric flasks. Prepare each timethe analysis is performed. Swirl gently but adequately. Theflask containing no sulfide

39、 solution is the reagent blank. Thestandards contain 2, 4, 10, and 20 g of sulfur per 100 mL.NOTE 3The “blow-out” pipets are used to pipet the sodium sulfideworking solution aliquots. They are immersed into the absorption solu-tions and allowed to drain slowly while the tips are below the surface.Wh

40、en drainage is complete, gently blow out the last drops while stillimmersed and then remove from the flask.10.4 Color Development and Read-Out:10.4.1 To the test specimen, reagent blank, and calibrationstandard 100-mL volumetric flasks, add 2 mL of the diluteamine solution. Allow the dense amine sol

41、ution to flow downthe side of the flask to the bottom of the absorption solution.Stopper the flask and swirl gently but adequately a few timeswithout shaking (heat will be regenerated). Immediately add 10drops of the ferric chloride solution and shake vigorously toreact any hydrogen sulfide (H2S) wh

42、ich may have come out ofthe solution. Dilute each solution to the mark with water, mixwell, and allow to stand for at least 20 min. The colordevelopment should be conducted in the dark and if possible at20 to 25C by means of the constant-temperature bath or byany other comparable means available.10.

43、4.2 Read the maximum absorbance at the peak at or near670 nm, using water as the reference. Subtract the absorbanceof the reagent blank (as the correction) from the calibrationstandards and the test specimen. Plot the corrected absorbanceof the calibrated standards versus micrograms of sulfur presen

44、tand draw the best straight line passing through zero. (The slopeshould be about 0.005 to 0.010 absorbance units per 1 g ofsulfur per 10 nm of path length.) Read the amount of reduciblesulfur, in micrograms, in each specimen directly from the chartbased on its net absorbance.11. Calculation11.1 Calc

45、ulate the parts per million of reducible sulfur in thespecimen, P, as follows:P 5 R/W (1)where:R = reducible sulfur from chart, g, andW = weight of specimen, g.11.2 Calculate the percent reducible sulfur, P8, as follows:P8 5 P3 0.0001 (2)12.

46、of reducible sulfur as a percentage by weightof the moisture-free paper to two significant figures, and12.1.2 Individual values for each specimen which agree towithin 650 % relative average deviation, as well as reportingthe average for the three determinations.13. Precision and Bias13.1 Precision:1

47、3.1.1 The following estimates of precision are based onlimited experience: a within-laboratory study of three sets of alinerboard sample and a round-robin among three laboratorieson five different linerboard samples.13.1.2 Repeatability (Within Laboratory)0.91 ppm reduc-ible sulfur (11%).13.1.3 Comp

48、arability (Between Materials)Not known.13.1.4 Reproducibility (Between Laboratories)24%.13.2 BiasSince there is no accepted reference materialsuitable for determining the bias for the procedure in this testmethod, bias has not been determined.METHOD BSEMIQUANTITATIVE MEASUREMENT14. Apparatus14.1 Rea

49、ction ApparatusEssentially the same as thequantitative method (8.1), except that the side arm adapter andthe absorption apparatus are replaced by a glass tube withsuitable ground-glass joint (Fig. 2). The tube should be 100mm in length with flanged heads ground flat on both sides anda means of clamping the flanges together with two disks offilter paper between them. The outermost paper disk is impreg-nated with lead acetate.14.2 Other EquipmentSame as 8.5, and in addition a buretor pipet graduated in 0.1-mL divisions.15. Reagents and Materials1
