18、od.3This test method is not meant to relatea specific fuel to specific field handling and storage conditions.The formation of insolubles is affected by the material presentin the storage container and by the ambient conditions. Sincethis test method is conducted in glass under standardizedconditions

19、, the results from different fuels can be compared ona common basis.6.

21、n this test methodis 800 kPa (absolute) (100 psig). Many pressure gauges arecalibrated in kPa (gauge). For such gauges, the test pressurewould be 700 kPa (gauge). Maximum gauge gradations shouldbe 20 kPa (5 psig). The gauge should be calibrated againststandards, and capable of holding the four sampl

If 250 mLvessels such as Test Method D525 oxidation vessels are used,four will be required. The larger volume pressure vessels canaccommodate multiple sample or blank containers). The

Let bottles stand overnight with distilled waterin them. Dry in a drying oven at 105 C to 115 C. Ensure thesample bottles are cl

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 adrying oven at 105 C t

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

47、 pressure vessel toan oxygen cylinder via the preset regulator and pressurizeslowly to about 800 kPa (100 psig).

The test is invalid if the pressure has dr

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 C6 5 C) in the dark for a minimum of 1 h.
