Summary of Test Method3.1 A sample is weighed and base oil is added to 0.25 60.01-g total mass. Fifty millilitres of a kerosine so

17、ed for metal content before using.NOTE 4Satisfactory results have been obtained in this test method byusing Baker “kerosine” (deodorized) which has typical initial and endboiling points of 191C and 240C, respectively, and a typical composi-tion of 96.7 volume % saturates, 0.1 volume % olefins, and a

If the kerosine used by an operator deviatesappreciably from this composition, there may be significant error.6.4 Oil-Soluble Metal Compounds,3stock standard blend inbase oil.

22、for example, gravimetric or volumetric), andanalytical techniques to establish the elemental concentration masspercent levels.6.5 Potassium Ionization Suppressant Solutioncontainingan oil-soluble potassium compound in kerosine at 2.0 6 0.1 gpotassium/litre of solution.NOTE 6The actual potassium conc

23、entration needed varies with thesource of potassium and perhaps the instrumental conditions as well. Todetermine the needed concentration, atomize solutions containing 0, 500,1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, and 3000 ppm potassium with 25 ppm bariumand 5 ppm calcium in each. Plot graphs of barium and calcium

The minimumconcentration of potassium needed is that above the knee for both thebarium and calcium curves.6.6 Working StandardsFreshly prepared by weighing intosix 60-mL bottles (1) 0.25, (2) 0.20, (3) 0.15, (4) 0.10, (5) 0.05,and (6)0gof

Add 50 mL of potassium ionizationsuppressant solution (see 6.5) to each bottle and shake or stir todissolve.NOTE 7Many modern AAS instruments can store up to 3

26、or 4calibration standards in memory. In such cases, follow the manufacturersinstructions, ensuring that the unknown samples absorbance is in thelinear part of the calibration range used.6.7 Quality Control (QC) Samples, preferably are portionsof one or more liquid petroleum materials that are stable

These QC

28、samplescan be used to check the validity of the testing process asdescribed in Section 16.7. Sampling7.1 Shake the sample thoroughly before sampling to ensureobtaining a representative sample.8. Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Consult the manufacturers instructions for the opera-tion of the atomic absor

29、ption spectrophotometer. The presenttest method assumes that good operating procedures arefollowed. Design differences between spectrophotometersmake it impractical to specify the required manipulations indetail here. (WarningProper operating procedures are re-quired for safety as well as for reliab

30、ility of results. Anexplosion can result from flame blow-back unless the correctburner head and operating sequence are used.)8.2 For the barium determination, fit the barium hollowcathode lamp and set the monochromator at 553.6 nm. Makefine adjustments to the wavelength setting to give maximumoutput

31、. Using the correct burner head for acetylene/nitrousoxide, set up the acetylene/nitrous oxide flame. On instrumentswhere applicable, adjust the gain control to set this maximumat full scale, when aspirating standard (6)in6.6.8.3 Aspirate at about 2.5 to 3 mL/min a standard bariumsolution into the f

32、lame. Make adjustments to the height andangle of the burner and to the acetylene flow rate to givemaximum absorption. Make sure that standard (6)in6.6 stillgives zero absorbance by making adjustments, if necessary.9. Calibration (Barium)9.1 Aspirate standard (1)in6.6. With a minimum of scaleexpansio

33、n or burner rotation, obtain a reading of 0.5 6 0.1 onthe absorbance meter or alternative readout device.9.2 Aspirate the standards of 6.6 sequentially into the flameand record the output (or note the meter deflections). Aspiratethe solvent alone after each standard.9.3 Determine the net absorbance

34、of each standard. If thespectrophotometer output is linear in absorbance, the netabsorbance is given by the difference between the absorbancefor the standard or sample solution and the absorbance for thesolvent alone. If the spectrophotometer output is proportionalto transmission (that is, to light

35、intensity) then the net absor-bance is given by log10d0/d1, where the deflections are d0when solvent alone is aspirated and d1when the standard orsample solution is aspirated.9.4 Plot the net absorbance against the concentration (mg/50mL suppressant solution) of barium in the standards to give acali

36、bration curve.NOTE 8The calibration curve may be automatically calculated by theinstrument software and displayed by way of the instrument computerterminal, making actual plotting unnecessary.9.5 Calibration must be carried out prior to each group ofsamples to be analyzed and after any change in ins

37、trumentalconditions, as variation occurs in the instrument behavior.Readings may also vary over short times from such causes asbuildup of deposits on the burner slot or in the nebulizer. Thus,a single standard should be aspirated from time to time duringa series of samples to check whether the calib

38、ration haschanged (a check after every fifth sample is recommended).The visual appearance of the flame also serves as a usefulcheck to detect changes of condition.9.6 Determine the slope and intercept for barium based onthe calibration curve developed. The values will be used todetermine barium conc

39、entrations of samples to be tested.Ensure that the regression coefficient is at least 0.99 for barium,otherwise the laboratory needs to re-calibrate for barium whenthis criteria is not satisfied.10. Procedure (Barium)10.1 Weigh the sample to three significant figures into a60-mL (2-oz) bottle. The s

40、ample mass is chosen to give anabsorbance reading of 0.2 to 0.5. Add base oil to make 0.25 60.01 g total mass. Add 50 mL of potassium suppressantsolution, see 6.5, and dissolve. The maximum sample size to beused is 0.25 g, and the minimum is 0.05 g.10.1.1 To hazy samples add 0.25 6 0.01 mL of 2-ethy

41、lhexanoic acid and shake. If this clears up the haze, the analysisis run, and the dilution error is corrected by multiplying thefound results by 1.005. If the sample remains hazy, the sampleis not suitable to be analyzed by this test method.10.2 Samples yielding absorbances greater than 0.5 evenwith

42、 the minimum sample size can be accurately diluted withnew base oil to a suitable concentration. Make sure the newsolution is homogeneous before proceeding as instructed in10.1.10.3 Aspirate the sample solution and determine the absor-bance, aspirating solvent alone before and after each reading.11.

43、 Calculation (Barium)11.1 Read from the calibration curve the concentration, C,corresponding to the measured absorbance.C = concentration of barium in the diluted sample solution,mg/50 mL of suppressant solution.11.2 Calculate the barium content of the oils in percent massas follows:Barium, % mass 5

44、CD10W(1)where:W = grams of sample/50 mL,C = milligrams of metal/50 mL, andD = dilution factor if dilution was necessary in 10.2.NOTE 9If the calibration curve is linear, the concentration may bedetermined by an equation instead of a calibration curve.12.

46、gnesium using the following condi-tions:D462805313.1.1 Acetylene/nitrous oxide flame,13.1.2 Magnesium hollow cathode lamp, and13.1.3 Analytical line 285.2 nm.14. Zinc Determination14.1 Repeat Sections 7 through 10 replacing referencesmade to barium with zinc using the following conditions:14.1.1 Ace

47、tylene/nitrous oxide flame,14.1.2 Zinc hollow cathode lamp, and14.1.3 Analytical line 213.9 nm.NOTE 10Although this test method has been described for thedetermination of four elements on a single sample, the sequence ofoperations in analyzing several samples should also be considered.Aspiration of

48、a sample to determine its absorbance is very quick.Changing wavelength setting and lamps takes longer. Thus, it is mosteconomical to make measurements at a single wavelength on a series ofsamples and standards before changing conditions.15. Report15.1 Report concentrations greater than 0.1 % to thre

49、esignificant figures.15.2 Concentrations between 0.0050.1 % barium and0.0020.1 % zinc, calcium, and magnesium are reported to twosignificant figures.15.3 Concentrations less than the lower limits in 15.2 shallbe reported as less than the appropriate lower limit.16. Quality Control16.1 Confirm the performance of the instrument or the testprocedure by analyzing a quality control (QC) sample (see6.7).16.1.1 When QC/Quality Assurance (QA) protocols arealready established in the testing facility, these may be usedwhen they confirm the reliability of the test resu
