1、Designation: D3279 07D3279 12Standard Test Method forn-Heptane Insolubles1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3279; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses

2、 indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers determination of the mass percent of asphaltenes as defined by insolubility in normal-heptanesolvent. It is applicable to all solid

3、and semi-solid petroleum asphalts containing little or no mineral matter, to gas oils, to heavyfuel oils, and to crude petroleum that has been topped to a cut-point of 343C or higher.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.

United States17. Hazards7.1 n-Heptane has a boiling point of 98C and a flash point of 1C

15、, which means that it should be handled with care. It isrecommended that both the reflux dispersion and filtration steps be conducted in a ventilated hood and away from flames or othersources of heat.8. Preparation of Crucible8.1 Place the Gooch crucible plus one thickness filter pad in an oven at a

16、bout 11065C for 30 min, allow to cool in a desiccatorfor 30 6 5 , and then determine the mass to the nearest 0.1 mg. Designate this mass as A. Store in a desicator until ready for use.9. Sample Preparation9.1 If the sample is not fluid, heat to any convenient temperature, but in any case not more th

17、an 100C above the softening point.10. Procedure10.1 Into the Note Safety precautions in Section 7. Transfer into the tared 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask, weigh to the nearest 0.1mg a quantity of the the approximate amount of sample to be tested, usingtested. Use 0.5 to 0.6 g for airblown asphalts, 0.7 toF

Allow the sampleto cool to ambient temperature and determine the nass to the nearest 1mg. Designate this mass a B.Add n-heptane in the ratio 100mL of so

19、lvent per 1 g of sample, using proportionally less or more solvent as dependent upon the sample size. Unless the asphaltis in a granular form, heat the flask gently and turn it to cause the sample to be distributed somewhat over the bottom or lowersides of the flask.NOTE 2Tests show a small amount o

20、f insolubles (60.3 mass %) remain on walls of the precipitation flask despite repeated washings. When expectedlevel of nC7 insolubles is 6 % or less, use of a tared 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask is recommended. After all possible precipitate has been washed from theflask to the filtering crucible in 8.310

21、.3, include the flask with the crucible for the drying, weighing, and calculation procedures in 8.310.3 and 9.111.1.10.2 Place the Erlenmeyer flask, containing the sample plus solvent with magnetic stirrer added, on the magnetic-stirrer hotplate and secure under the reflux condenser. With the magnet

22、ic stirrer in operation, adjust the heat for gentle refluxing for a periodof 15 to 20 min when testing paving binders, fuel oils, gas oils, or crude residues. For airblown asphalts, a reflux period of 25 to30 min is recommended. In all cases, allow the dispersed mixture to cool to room temperature f

23、or a period of 1 h.10.3 Place the Gooch crucible plus one thickness of the glass-fiber filter pad in an oven at about 107C for 15 min, allow tocool in a desiccator, and then weigh to the nearest 0.1 mg. Set up the filtering crucible plus filter pad in the suction flask and pre-wetwith 5 mL of n-hept

24、ane (see Fig. 2). Warm the flask containing the sample plus solvent to 38 to 49C on the hot plate and pourits contents (except for the magnetic stirrer) through the filter using a gentle vacuum. Filtration will proceed most rapidly if thesupernatant liquid is filtered first with the insolubles trans

25、ferred to the filter last. Police the beaker or flask while transferring thefinal precipitate, using either a rubber policeman or stainless steel spatula with a squared end. Wash the precipitate with threeportions of n-heptane of about 10 mL each, first rinsing out the flask therewith. Place the cru
