Generally, once a year is sufficient.6.6.4 Each

16、 formulation has its own individual curve. Chang-ing ingredients or ratios of ingredients in a particular formu-lation will change the slope of the curve and require develop-ment of a new curve for the revised composition.7. Some Practical Uses of the Data7.1 The curve plotted in 6.6.2 can be adapte

17、d in severalways to provide useful information and data for productioncontrol.7.1.1 The curve itself can be used to determine solids ofpolish or polish components while in process.NOTE 1The useful area of the curve can be enlarged to provide easierreading with increased accuracy.7.1.2 The data from

18、the curve can be used to prepare a tableof refractive index readings over a useful range of solids. Thisavoids the necessity of constant reference to the actual plot ofthe curve.7.1.3 The data from the curve can be used to prepare a tableof “water to add” to achieve a specific solids. For eachrefrac

19、tive index reading covering the range of interest there isa volume (gallons or litres) of water to add. Each batch ofmaterial produced must be brought to some specific, knownbase volume to use a “water to add” table.8. Cautions and Comments8.1 Refractive index is very sensitive to temperature. Agood

20、 rule of thumb is for every 1C temperature change therefractive index changes about 0.0002; as the temperatureincreases the refractive index decreases.8.2 Refractive index varies with different wave lengths oflight. Yellow light (sodium, D) is most commonly used. It isimportant to use a constant lig

21、ht source.8.3 Each laboratory must develop its own curves, based onsolids (nonvolatile matter) results, in its oven (and otherequipment), its own refractometer and its own trained opera-tors.8.4 It is not important that absolute or even the samerefractive index readings be obtained from each laborat

22、ory ininterlaboratory tests on the same sample. Refractometers,operators, and conditions can vary significantly from labora-tory to laboratory.8.5 Extrapolation of curves to significantly higher solids isnot recommended. Solids more than 3 % higher than the solidslevel used to develop the curve shou

23、ld not be attemptedwithout verification. For example, a curve developed for a20 % polish should not be extrapolated for use at 25 % solids;above 23 % a new curve should be considered.8.6 “Hand-held” refractometers can be used but at a con-siderable sacrifice in accuracy. These instruments may besuff
