Scope7.1 This test method is used for the determination of the ashcontent of sulfur.8. Summary

13、of Test Method8.1 The ash content of sulfur is determined by the controlledburning of the sulfur, followed by ashing in a furnace at 600C.9. Apparatus9.1 See Section 6.10. Procedure10.1 Dry6gormore of sulfur in an oven at 70C for 2 h.Cool in a desiccator.10.2 Weigh a 5-g specimen to the nearest 0.00

14、01 g into apreviously ignited, weighed, 25-cm3porcelain crucible. In awell-ventilated hood, place the crucible on a hot plate and heatto 400 to 500C, burning off all of the sulfur; or burn off thesulfur by moderate heating over a gas burner. When all of thesulfur is gone, transfer the crucible to a

15、muffle furnace and heatto 600 6 25C for at least 20 min. Cool in a desiccator andweigh.11. Calculation11.1 Calculate the percent ash as follows:A 5 B/C! 3 100 (1)where:A = ash, %,B = mass of ash, g, andC = mass of sample, g.12. Report12.1 Report the following information:12.1.1 Proper identification

16、 of the sample, and12.1.2 Results of two individual determinations and theiraverage reported as percent ash to the nearest 0.01 %.13. Precision and Bias313.1 This precision and bias section has been prepared inaccordance with Practice D4483. Refer to Practice D4483 forterminology and other statistic

17、al details.13.2 The precision results in this precision and bias sectiongive an estimate of the precision of this test method with thematerials (rubbers) used in the particular interlaboratory pro-grams as described below. The precision parameters should notbe used for acceptance/rejection testing o

18、f any group ofmaterials without documentation that they are applicable tothose particular materials and the specific testing protocols thatinclude this test method.13.3 A Type 1 (interlaboratory) precision was evaluated in1986. Both repeatability and reproducibility are short term. Aperiod of a few

19、days separates replicate test results.Atest resultis the mean value, as specified by this test method, obtained ontwo determinations or measurements of the property or param-eter in question.13.4 Three different materials were used in the interlabora-tory program. They were tested in seven laborator

20、ies on twodifferent days.13.5 The results of the precision calculations for repeatabil-ity and reproducibility are given in Table 1, in ascending orderof material average or level, for each of the materials evalu-ated.NOTE 1The percent ash values have been multiplied by 100 to avoidleading zeros in

21、Table 1. The values of Sr,r,SR, and R are influenced bythis multiplication factor, for example: Sr(percent ash times 100)/100 = Sr(actual or true percent ash basis).13.6 The precision of this test method may be expressed inthe format of the following statements which use an “appro-priate value” of r

22、, R,(r), or (R), that is, that value to be used indecisions about test results (obtained with the test method).The appropriate value is that value of r and R associated witha mean level in Table 1 closest to the mean level underconsideration at any given time, for any given material inroutine testin

23、g operations.13.7 RepeatabilityThe repeatability, r, of this test methodhas been established as the appropriate value tabulated inTable 1. Two single test results, obtained under normal testmethod procedures, that differ by more than this tabulated r(for any given level) must be considered as derive

24、d fromdifferent or nonidentical sample populations.13.8 ReproducibilityThe reproducibility, R, of this testmethod has been established as the appropriate value tabulatedin Table 1. Two single test results obtained in two differentlaboratories, under normal test method procedures, that differby more

25、than the tabulated R (for any given level) must beconsidered to have come from different or nonidentical samplepopulations.NOTE 2The values of r and R are relatively large, whereas the averageor mean test level is small (close to zero). This is typical for this type ofprecision measurement process.

26、This should be kept in mind whenever useis made of r and R.13.9 The relative repeatability (r) and reproducibility (R)have been omitted from Table 1 since the level of values tested3Supporting data have been filed at ASTM International Headquarters and maybe obtained by requesting Research Report RR

Scope14.1 This test method describes the determination of the ashcontent of accelerators and antidegradants.15. Summary of Test Method15.1 The ash content is determined by heating a knownquantity of

31、 material over a gas burner to remove organicmaterial leaving a carbonaceous mass. Ashing is completed ina muffle furnace. The remaining ash, measured by massdifference, is expressed as a percent of the original material.16. Significance and Use16.1 The ash content of a sample is the amount of allno

32、ncarbon components that remain after combustion, indepen-dent of chemical form. In effect, the analysis measures residualinorganic impurities that can remain with the product at lowlevels following the manufacturing process.16.2 The quantity of ash in accelerators or antidegradantscan affect the per

33、formance of these additives in rubber ifcritical levels are exceeded.17. Apparatus17.1 See Section 6.18. Sampling18.1 To ensure homogeneity, at least 250 g of the lot sampleshould be well blended prior to removing the test unit.19. Procedure19.1 Ignite the 15-cm3crucible in the muffle furnace at 750

Place the crucible in the clay triangle, andcarefully heat the crucible and contents with the

35、gas burneruntil all volatile material and pyrolysis products have beenremoved (gases may flame) and the residue has been carbon-ized.19.4 Transfer the crucible to the muffle furnace at 750625C and ignite for 2 h.19.5 Carefully transfer the crucible containing the ash to thedesiccator, cool to room t

36、emperature, and reweigh to thenearest 0.0001 g (D).19.6 Repeat the procedure on a second test unit.20. Calculation20.1 Calculate the percent ash to the nearest 0.01 % asfollows:A 5 D 2 B!/C 2 B!# 3 100 (2)where:A = ash, %,B = mass of crucible, g,C = mass of crucible plus test unit, g, andD = mass of

37、 crucible plus the ash, g.21.
