After aging and cooling, the total amount offuel insoluble products is determined gravimetrically andcorrected according to blank determinations.5. Significance and Use5.1 The result

16、s of this test method are useful in ranking aspecific fuel sample against other specific fuel samples orstandards with or without stabilizer additives when testedunder identical conditions. This test method is not meant torelate a specific fuel to specific field handling and storageconditions. The f

17、ormation of insolubles is affected by thematerial present in the storage container and by the ambientconditions. Since this test method is conducted in glass understandardized conditions, the results from different fuels can becompared on a common basis.6. Apparatus6.1 Sample or Blank Container, a b

Many pressure gauges arecalibrated in kPa (gauge). For such gau

The gauge should be calibrated againststandards, and capable of holding the four sample containers(WarningPressure vessels having internal volumes from250 to 8000 mLhave been used and found to be suita

34、eld sampling should be in accor-dance with Practices D4057 or D4177. Bulk fuel to be sampledmust be above its cloud point and thoroughly mixed prior toaliquot sampling. For field sampling and shipping, use onlyepoxy-lined steel cans that have been cleaned according toPractice D4306.8.2 Laboratory Su

35、bsamplingFuel to be sampled must beabove its cloud point and thoroughly mixed prior to aliquotsampling. Use clean amber or clean borosilicate glass contain-ers for laboratory handling. Fuel in clear bottles must beprotected from light, for example, by wrapping in aluminumfoil.9. Preparation of Appar

36、atus9.1 Rinse the sample containers thoroughly with the TAMsolvent followed by water. Then wash with a mildly alkaline orneutral pH laboratory detergent. Rinse with deionized ordistilled water. Let bottles stand overnight with distilled waterin them. Dry in a drying oven at 105 to 115C. Ensure thesa

37、mple bottles are cleaned thoroughly. Leave no soap residueon the inside of the bottles (Note 1).NOTE 1Even a slight soap residue left on the walls of the bottle couldalter sediment results.9.2 Soak the aluminum weighing dishes in fresh, cleanTAM solvent for several minutes followed by drying in adry

38、ing oven at 105 to 115C. Even new aluminum dishes mustbe cleaned with TAM solvent and dried before the initialweighing. Two hours after removal from the oven, firmly nestone dish inside of another for each sample replicate and foreach blank replicate to be run. This is both the adherentinsolubles ev

40、rest 0.1mg. A separate two filter plus two weighing dish assembly (theso-called weighing assembly) is required for each sample andblank replicate. Weigh the filter and weighing dish assemblythree times about one-half hour apart and take the averagereading. This allows for changes in weight due to te

41、mperatureand humidity.9.4 Place the pressure vessel(s) specified in 6.2 in a heaterspecified in 6.3 to preheat to test temperature.10. Procedure10.1 Place two unweighed nylon membrane filters in a filterfunnel. Prefilter, under vacuum (see 6.5), 220 mL of fuel to betested. Transfer 100 mL of the fil

42、tered fuel to each of two glasssample containers (see 6.1). Place these sample containers plustwo blank sample containers in the pre-heated pressure ves-sel(s) (see 9.4). (WarningIf more than one fuel is to betested simultaneously, additional glass sample containers arerequired. However, only a sing

43、le pair of blank containers isrequired.) Close the pressure vessel(s) after inspecting thevessel seals and replacing if necessary.10.2 Set the oxygen cylinder secondary regulator to deliver800 kPa (absolute) (100 psig). Connect the pressure vessel toan oxygen cylinder via the preset regulator and pr

44、essurizeslowly to about 800 kPa (100 psig). (WarningSee 4.1.)Release the pressure slowly, repeat the pressurization andrelease the pressure slowly. The third and final time, pressurizeto 800 6 10 kPa (100 6 1 psig) as preset on the secondaryregulator. (WarningSee 6.2.)3Reagent Chemicals, American Ch

The test is invalid if the pres

47、sure has dropped morethan 20 kPa (absolute) (2 psig) and must be repeated afterreplacing the pressure vessel seals. Slowly release the pressureto atmospheric, then open the reactor.10.5 Remove the sample containers from the pressure ves-sel(s) and allow the containers to cool slowly to ambient (25 6

48、5C) in the dark for a minimum of 1 h. Do not expose thesamples to light prior to filtration.10.6 Place the two filters from a preweighed weighingassembly from 9.3 in a filter assembly and apply suction.Completely filter the contents of a sample container. After thesample container is empty and the f

49、ilter is dry, (1) relieve thevacuum, (2) thoroughly rinse the inside of the sample containerwith at least 25 mL of filtered hydrocarbon solvent (see 7.3),and pour into filter holder, and (3) pull solvent through filterwith vacuum. Repeat steps (1) through (3). Wash down filterholder with filtered hydrocarbon solvent from a rinse bottle andpull through filter.10.7 Wash down the inside of the funnel and the outside ofthe joint between the funnel and the filter base with filteredhydrocarbon solvent.10.8 With the vacuum applied, carefully separat
