Summary of Test Method4.1 An in-process or finished product sample is taken. Allcooking and bleaching chemicals must be washed out ofin-process samples. Dry samples

7、are wetted with demineral-ized water. Samples are either squeezed or pressed to 20 to40 % consistency as necessary, then passed through a picker.4.2 The wet pulp sample is dried with air whose maximumtemperature is 120C and weighed under conditions that causethe specified quantity of sample to be ob

8、tained. The weighedsample is placed in a glass 120-mL (4-oz) bottle, steel shot areadded, a vacuum is pulled on the bottle, and 97 mL ofcuprammonium solution are added to the bottle. The bottle isplaced on a shaker to mix and dissolve the pulp sample in theCuAm solution.4.3 The dissolved sample is t

9、ransferred to a glass viscositytube. The tube is mounted vertically with a bright light behindthe tube. A special glass bead (see 7.13) is dropped into thecenter of the solution in the tube. The time is measured inseconds (s) for the glass bead to pass between two marks on thetube which are 20 cm ap

10、art. This time (s) is the uncorrected “asis” cuprammonium ball fall viscosity. The temperature of thesolution is determined, and the correction factor for thistemperature is multiplied by the uncorrected viscosity of thesample. This gives the “as is” cuprammonium ball fall viscos-ity value.4.4 The “

11、as is” viscosity value for the sample size used isconverted to the 2.50-g ACS viscosity by the equationsprovided in 14.4. The viscosity is reported in “ACS seconds”.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is suitable for use as a rapid control testfor pulp manufacture or for careful determinatio

17、to remove cooking and bleachingchemicals, because the presence of chemicals while drying willincrease viscosity loss.6.2 The weight of sample used with this test method iscritical. The effect of incorrect sample weight on viscosity isshown in Table 1.6.2.1 If the pulp sample is properly weighed but

18、a smallamount fails to dissolve, the viscosity will be incorrect by atleast the percentage of the sample that failed to dissolve.6.3 The volume of cuprammonium solution used is alsocritical. The effect of incorrect volume on viscosity is shown inTable 2.6.4 Use the temperature correction factors giv

19、en in Table 3to correct the cuprammonium viscosities to 25C, assumingthat a 1C increase causes a 3 % decrease in the measuredviscosity of the solution. Correction for temperatures off bymore than 5C is not recommended. Samples should beretested, ensuring than the CuAm solution is within tempera-ture

(Thiswill mean that a sample that has a bead fall time of 10 s willhave a viscosity of 220 cP, and a sample that has a

26、bead falltime of 50 s will have a viscosity of 1100 cP). Since the densityof various shipments of glass beads will vary somewhat, thediameter of the beads will have to be varied to compensate forthe variation in the density of the glass. Generally the beadswill be about 3.3 mm in diameter, and they

Hazards9.1 CuAm solution is corrosive, and thus harmful to the skinand eyes. Wear safety glasses or goggles while working withthis solution. Gloves and laboratory coat or che

33、mical apron arerecommended.10. Sampling10.1 The sample for this test may consist of a wet pulp or adry, finished product sample. Take a representative portion ofthe pulp sample that contains at least 10 and not more than 25g of dry pulp.10.2 If the sample is an in-process pulp sample, thoroughlywash

34、 out any process chemicals (acids, bases, or bleach),which may be present. Drain the excess water out of the wetpulp sample (see 10.3).10.3 If any sample is above 40 % consistency, wet it withdemineralized water. If the sample is below 20 % consistency,hand squeeze it or press it until the consisten

35、cy is between 20to 40 %.10.4 Seven sample sizes are authorized by this test method.These sizes, in g, are 0.85, 1.00, 1.25, 1.50, 2.20, 2.40, and3.50. Select the sample size which will be used for the test.Generally, select a sample size which will give a CuAmviscosity between 15 and 60 s. Never use

36、 a sample size thatgives a CuAm viscosity of less than 10 or more than 100 s. (Ifa test result is not within these limits, a new sample size shouldbe selected.)10.5 In order to ensure that traces of the last sample passedthrough the picker will not contaminate the new sample, pickenough of the prese

37、nt sample that an amount equal to at least1 g of dry pulp has passed through the picker. Discard all ofthis portion of the sample. Then, pick enough of the sample tocarry out the viscosity test. Immediately after each sample hasbeen passed through the picker, turn on the compressed airgoing into the

38、 picker for at least 2 s. (This is to blow out asmuch as possible of the sample before it has time to dry andstick to the surfaces of the picker.)10.6 Dry the picked sample with air as follows:10.6.1 Temperature does not exceed 120C, and10.6.2 Time does not exceed 20 min.10.7 Weigh the sample in a m

40、ce. This modification provides better weightcontrol, but is not suited for rapid turn-around process control.11. Calibration and Standardization11.1 Select control pulp samples for which a relatively largesupply is available. Ensure that the cuprammonium viscositiesof these samples are sufficiently

41、different so that differentsample weights are required. Determine the cuprammoniumviscosity of each sample using exactly the same procedure thatwould be used for testing unknown samples. Record thecuprammonium viscosity in a log book. Keep a separatecontrol chart of the cuprammonium viscosity values

42、 (or loga-rithm of the values) for each of the samples. Measure thesecontrol samples at a convenient frequency.12. Conditioning/Preparation12.1 Conditioning of dry samples to an equilibrium mois-ture content will give more accurate and precise results.12.2 It is usually necessary to treat bottles, s

43、topper assem-blies, and viscosity tubes with a solution of sulfuric acid tocoagulate the CuAm-cellulose solution before this apparatuscan be cleaned. (WarningIt is very important that thisapparatus be thoroughly washed to remove all of the sulfuricacid before it is dried. If there is a small amount

44、of sulfuric acidFIG. 2 Rubber Stopper Assembly In BottleD 6188 97 (2003)3remaining on the surface of any apparatus when it dries, a thinfilm of sulfuric acid will remain on the surface of theapparatus.)13. Procedure13.1 Carry out the following operations in a room main-tained at 25 6 2C (77 6 3.6F).

45、13.2 This test method defines clean, dry bottles; clean, drystopper assemblies; and clean, dry viscosity tubes as ones thatappear to be clean, do not have water or water droplets in or onthem, and that will deliver water with a pH not lower than 5.0or higher than 7.0 when their surfaces are washed w

46、ithdemineralized water.13.3 In carrying out this part of this test, note that CuAmsolution is present in glass tubes and rubber or plastic hoseunder a slight pressure. (WarningCuAm solution is harmfulto the skin, and eyes (see 9.1).13.4 Place the weighed sample of pulp in a clean, dry bottle(see 7.5

47、), and add 25 6 10 clean, dry steel shot to the bottle.Tightly insert a clean dry rubber stopper assembly containing ashort glass tube with a short rubber hose connected to the topof the glass tube. It may be desirable to dampen the wall of thestopper with water so that it can be inserted tightly, b

48、ut do nothave any liquid water on or in the rubber stopper assembly.Connect the end of the rubber tubing to the filling assemblyillustrated in Fig. 1, and apply a vacuum of at least 660 mm Hgfor at least 3 s. to the bottle containing the sample. Then,without loosing the vacuum in the bottle, add 97

49、6 1mLofcuprammonium solution to the bottle. Be sure that there is noCuAm solution in the filling system below the stopcock on theautomatic pipet before the addition is begun, and be sure thatall of the CuAm solution in the filling system is added to thebottle and that none remains in any part of the filling system.However, do not let air into the bottle after all of the CuAmsolution has entered the bottle. (Never apply vacuum to thebottle after the addition of the CuAm solution is begun, sincethis may result in the loss of several millilitres of the measured97 mL of
