Coulomet-ric titrations eliminate the need for standardizing the reagent.5. Significance and Use5.1 These test methods are suitable for quality control, as

Forthis reason the solvent shall be further dried by addingundiluted Karl Fischer reagent (6 mg of water/mL) to a bottleof methanol until a light red-brown color persists.

24、 Add metha-nol until the solution is a pale yellow. A 100-mL portion of thetreated solvent requires 1 to 10 mL of dilute Karl Fischerreagent.8. Sampling8.1 It is essential to avoid changes in the water content ofthe material during sampling operations. Many polyols arequite hygroscopic and errors fr

25、om this source are particularlysignificant in the determination of the small amount of waterusually present. Use almost-filled, tightly capped containersand limit as much as possible contact of the sample with airwhen transferring the sample to the titration vessel. Avoidintermediate sample containe

26、rs, if possible. If several differentanalyses are to be performed on the same sample, determinethe water first and do not open the sample prior to the actualanalysis.9. Standardization of Reagent9.1 Standardize the Karl Fischer reagent daily using thesame procedures as used for titrating the sample.

27、9.1.1 Add 100 mL of titration solvent to the flask and titratethe residual moisture as described in Section 10. To this titratedsolvent, immediately add 1 drop of water from a weighingpipet. Weigh the pipet to 60.1 mg. Complete the titration withKarl Fischer reagent as described in Section 10. It ma

Procedure10.1 Adjust the nitr

Titrate t

30、he mixture with Karl Fischer reagent to theend point. (See Note 4.)10.2 To the prepared titration mixture, add the amount ofsample as indicated in Table 1. Exercise care when the sampleis transferred so that water is not absorbed from the air,particularly under conditions of high humidity. Allow the

31、solution to stir 1 or 2 minutes until dissolution is complete.10.3 Titrate the mixture again with Karl Fischer reagent tothe same end point previously employed. Record the amount ofreagent used to titrate the water in the sample.NOTE 4The end point is that point in the titration when two smallplatin

37、 Apparatus13.1 Several commercial autotitrators are available4thatemploy volumetric or coulometric titrations and provide resultssuperior to those of the manual procedure, described above.These instruments consist of an automated buret assembly, asealed titration vessel with appropriate electrodes a

38、nd sensingcircuitry, and a vacuum system for removal of solution afteranalysis. These automated systems provide several advantagesand conveniences.Atmospheric moisture contamination can bemore closely controlled; calibration is simplified; and thepreneutralization step is automatic. Titrations are r

39、apid, andreagent consumption is low. Autotitrators automatically calcu-late and display or print the water concentration.14. Reagents14.1 Commercial reagents and reagent systems of varioustypes are available5for use with autotitrators for water deter-mination. Pyridine-free reagents have improved st

40、ability andless objectionable odor than the conventional Karl Fischerreagent. Reagents can be purchased in split or composite formsin different concentrations to fit various ranges of watercontent. A composite reagent contains all the componentsrequired for a Karl Fischer titration in a single solut

41、ion. Splitimplies separate solutions of the solvent and titrant.15. Sampling15.1 Sampling is conveniently accomplished by use of atared syringe. The material is drawn into the syringe, weighed,and delivered through the sample port of the autotitrator vessel.The syringe is then reweighed to obtain th

42、e sample weight bydifference.15.1.1 Take note of the sample handling warnings in 8.1.16. Standardization of Reagent16.1 Since different autotitrators may vary in standardiza-tion procedures, consult the operating manual for the autoti-trator in use. Water is an excellent primary standard. Inaddition

43、, stable, prepackaged, primary standards are also avail-able for establishing the standardization factor.17. Procedure17.1 Refer to the operating manual for the autotitrator inuse. Basically, after preneutralization of the reagent in thetitrator vessel, the sample is introduced, and the volumetricti

44、tration (or coulometric generation of titrant) proceeds auto-matically to the end point.NOTE 5In choosing the appropriate sample size for use with specificautotitrators, use the manufacturers recommendations. If no instructionsare available, use the guidelines listed in Table 2 and Table 3.TABLE 2 V
