17、rd and sample.3.3 Undercounting of the reference standard with respect to the sample is avoided in Test Methods B and C by dilution of thestandard with a relaxation reagent solution. Undercounting of highly viscous or solid test samples is avoided by dissolving thesample in a non-hydrogen containing

18、 solvent, which ensures that all of the weighed sample is in a fluid and homogeneous solutionat the time of measurement.An elevated sample temperature at the time of measurement also ensures a homogeneous liquid-phasesample.4. Significance and Use4.1 The hydrogen content represents a fundamental qua

ApparatusNOTE 1This test method has been written around the Newport Analyzer Mark IIIF or its replacement version, the Newport 4000 (Oxford AnalyticalInstruments, Ltd., Oxford, England), and the details of the test method are to be read in conjunction with the manu

21、facturers handbook. These instrumentshave demonstrated statistically indistinguishable performance in these standard test methods and in Test Method D3701. Any similar instrument isacceptable, provided that the new instrument is adequately correlated and proved to be statistically similar. As of the

22、 mid-1990s, however, the Newport4000 instrument is no longer being manufactured by the vendor. No newer models are currently being manufactured as replacements for the Newport4000 instrument.5.1 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometer:5.1.1 Alow-resolution, continuous wave instrument capable of meas

Preparation of Test Specimen and Standard8.1 Test Method ALight Distillates8.1.1 Take a clean and dry test cell and PTFE plug, and weigh them together to the nearest 0.001 g 0.001 g and record theweight. Add 30 6 1 mL 30 mL 6 1 mL of the reference standard or test

36、 specimen to the tube, taking extreme care to preventsplashing the liquid above the line inscribed on the tube. Use a pipet for this operation.8.1.2 Using the insertion rod, push the PTFE plug into the tube until it is about 3 cm 3 cm above the liquid surface, being carefulto keep the tube upright.

37、A gentle twisting or rocking of the plug as it is inserted usually aids the escape of air from the test celland ensures that the lip of the PTFE plug is turned up around the entire circumference. Take care to ensure that this is so, sincea plug that is not properly inserted allows sample evaporation

38、 and gives rise to erroneous results.NOTE 3If difficulties are encountered in the insertion of the PTFE plug, this operation is facilitated by inserting a length of thin (less than0.2-mm0.2 mm diameter) and clean copper wire down the inside surface of the test cell until it is approximately 4 cm 4 c

39、m from the graduation mark,and then pushing the PTFE plug down past the wire which is then removed.8.1.3 Unscrew the insertion rod carefully and remove without disturbing the plug and without contacting the liquid with theunder surface of the plug.FIG. 1 Conditioning Block and Insertion RodD4808 173
