22、 materials that are stable andrepresentative of the samples of interest. These QC samplescan be used to check the validity of the testing process asdescribed in Section 10.7. Sampling7.1 Take the sample in accordance with the instructions inPractice D4057.7.2 Ensure that the sample is thoroughly rep

23、resentative ofthe material to be tested and that the portion of the sample usedfor test is thoroughly representative of the whole sample.8. Procedure8.1 Transfer 1.0 to 1.5 g of sample, weighed to the nearest0.1 mg, into a Kjeldahl flask. Avoid contact of the sample withthe neck of the Kjeldahl flas

24、k.Add the catalyst reagent mixtureto the Kjeldahl flask. Add two or three beads to preventbumping.8.2 Wash down the neck of the Kjeldahl flask with 20 mL ofH2SO4(rel dens 1.84). Swirl the contents of the Kjeldahl flaskto facilitate the mixing of the sample, catalyst reagent, andH2SO4.8.3 Warm the co

25、ntents of the Kjeldahl flask on the digestionrack and repeat the swirling. Apply low heat until the frothinghas stopped. Samples that do not froth or char shall besubjected to a 20-min low-heating period. Careful periodicswirling of the solution in the Kjeldahl flask shall also be made.Gradually app

26、ly intermediate heat to raise the temperature ofthe solution to boiling.8.4 Maintain a minimum volume of 15 mL of liquid in theKjeldahl flask during the digestion period.Add volumes of 5 to15 mL of H2SO4(rel dens 1.84) when the volume does notconform to this condition. Use the H2SO4to wash down then

27、eck of the Kjeldahl flask after the contents have been allowedto cool sufficiently so that sulfur trioxide (SO3) fumes havesubsided. The volume of H2SO4(rel dens 1.84) added willdepend upon the carbonaceous material in the Kjeldahl flask.After all of the carbonaceous material has been digested andth

28、e solution has cleared, continue the digestion for two morehours at rapid rate of boiling. The total volume of liquidremaining in the Kjeldahl flask after digestion approximatesthe volume in the Kjeldahl flask for the blank.NOTE 4For some samples, a two hour digestion period may beunnecessary, if th

29、e solution has completely cleared.8.5 Turn off the heat, but allow the Kjeldahl flask to remainin the fume duct or hood until the evolution of SO3fumes hassubsided. Remove the Kjeldahl flask from the rack and cool toapproximately room temperature.8.6 Place a 300-mL receiving flask containing 25 mL o

30、fH3BO3solution and 5 drops of methyl purple indicator solutionunder the condenser with the delivery tube tip extending to thebottom of the receiving flask.8.7 Measure approximately 275 mL of water and add aportion of this water to the Kjeldahl flask and swirl the contents3Reagent Chemicals, American

35、warm the contents in the Kjeldahl flaskto facilitate solution of the salt cake.8.8 Add 25 mL of Na2S solution to the cooled contents ofthe Kjeldahl flask, to precipitate the mercury, and swirl to mix.(WarningIn addition to other precautions, when the Na2Ssolution is added to the cooled digestion fla

36、sk, considerablehydrogen sulfide is evolved. Therefore, conduct 8.8 and 8.9 ina hood with a suitable draft.) (Warning In addition to otherprecautions, care must be exercised in the disposal of themercuric sulfide. Laboratories processing large volumes ofKjeldahl nitrogen determinations should consid

37、er the use of arecovery trap for mercury.)8.9 Place the Kjeldahl flask in a slurry of ice and water. Coolthe contents in the Kjeldahl flask to approximately 40F(4.5C). Slowly add 75 mL of NaOH solution (1000 g/L) downthe inclined neck of the Kjeldahl flask, without agitation, toform two layers.8.9.1

38、 Carefully remove the Kjeldahl flask from the ice bathso that mixing of the layers does not occur. Carefully place theKjeldahl flask on the Kjeldahl distillation rack.8.9.2 Immediately connect the Kjeldahl flask to the distilla-tion apparatus and mix the contents of the Kjeldahl flaskthoroughly by s

39、wirling. The digestion flask must be connectedto the distillation apparatus immediately after the alkali hasbeen added and layered, but before swirling to mix the acid andalkali. When any mixing is permitted to occur before thedigestion flask is connected, the heat generated can be suffi-cient to re

40、lease some of the ammonia which can be lost. Thisloss results in low recovery of ammonia, and thus low valuesfor the nitrogen content of the sample.8.10 Promptly apply full heat to the digestion flask. Reducethe heat just before the solution begins to boil and maintain atlow boiling for 5 min. Heat

41、must be applied promptly toprevent sucking of the H3BO3solution into the condenser asthe digestion solution cools. The initial distillation rate mustnot be too rapid because most of the ammonia is distilledduring the first few minutes, and if too large an amount ispresent it can not all be absorbed

42、in the H3BO3solution.Increase the heat to rapid boiling, until the volume in thereceiving flask reaches a volume of approximately 130 mL.8.11 Lower the receiving flask to expose the condenserdelivery tube tip. Rinse the tip with water. After approximately1 min of additional distillation, turn off th

43、e heat and allow thecondenser to drain.NOTE 6The total volume in the receiving flask is approximately 150mL. For convenience the receiving flask can be marked at the 130 and150-mL volume points.NOTE 7Commercially available digestiondistillation apparatus maybe used as long as the same chemical react

44、ions occurring in Section 8 aremaintained. In such cases, follow the manufacturers instructions for thedetails of digestion and distillation sequences.8.12 Titrate the contents in the receiving flask with standardH2SO4(0.005 M) to an end point where the gray color of thesolution just disappears and

45、only the purple color remains. Ifthe titration exceeds 50 mL, continue the titration with standardH2SO4(0.05 M). Read the volume of the standard acid to thenearest 0.05 mL.NOTE 8Commercially available automated colorimetric titrators maybe used instead of the manual titration described in 8.12.8.13

46、Determine a blank with every set of samples, identicalin every way with the regular determinations, except 1.0 g ofsucrose is added in place of the sample. The initial volume of20 mL of H2SO4(rel dens 1.84) is all that is used for thedigestion of the sucrose.9. Calculation9.1 Calculate the nitrogen
