18、 for theDetermination of the Method Detection LimitRevision1.11, pp. 265-2673. Summary of Test Method3.1 The X-ray fluorescence spectrometer is initially cali-brated by the following procedure. For each element, the slopeand intercept of the calibration curve are determined byregressing concentratio

19、n data and intensities measured on a setof physical standards. Empirical alphas can also be determinedby regression when the appropriate set of physical standards isused for calibration. Theoretical alphas, calculated with specialsoftware, can also be used. In addition, a combination oftheoretical a

20、nd empirical alphas can be used.3.2 Asample is placed in the X-ray beam, and the intensitiesof the appropriate fluorescence lines are measured. A similarmeasurement is made at a wavelength offset from eachfluorescence line in order to obtain a background correction.Enhancement or absorption of the X

21、-ray fluorescence of ananalyte by an interfering element in the sample can occur, andthese effects can be handled in the data reduction by imple-mentation of alphas. Concentrations of the analytes are deter-mined by comparison of net signals against calibration curves,which include influence coeffic

22、ients (that is, alphas) calculatedfrom theory, empirical data, or a combination of theory andempirical data.4. Significance and Use4.1 Lubricating oils can be formulated with additives, whichcan act as detergents, anti-oxidants, anti-wear agents, and soforth. Some additives can contain one or more o

23、f calcium,copper, magnesium, phosphorus, sulfur, and zinc. This testmethod can be used to determine if the oils, additives, andadditive packages meet specification with respect to content ofthese elements.4.2 This test method can also be used to determine iflubricating oils, additives, and additive

24、packages meet specifi-cation with respect to chlorine concentration. In this context,specification can refer to contamination.4.3 This test method is not intended for use on samples thatcontain some component that significantly interferes with theanalysis of the elements specified in the scope.4.4 T

25、his test method can complement other test methods forlube oils and additives, including Test Methods D4628, D4927,D4951, and D5185.5. Interferences5.1 The additive elements can affect the magnitudes of themeasured intensities for each analyte. In general, theX-radiation emitted by each analyte can b

26、e absorbed by theother elements.Also, the X-radiation emitted by an analyte canbe enhanced by some other component. The magnitudes of theabsorption and enhancement effects can be significant. How-ever, implementation of accurately determined alphas in the setof calibration parameters can satisfactor

27、ily correct for absorp-tion and enhancement effects, thereby making this test methodquantitative.5.2 Molybdenum lines can spectrally overlap lines of mag-nesium, phosphorus, sulfur, and chlorine. Lead lines canspectrally overlap sulfur. Thus, this test method cannot beapplied if molybdenum or lead a

28、re present at significantconcentrations and if accurate overlap corrections cannot bemade.5.3 When a large d-spacing diffraction structure containingsilicon is used as the analyzing crystal, corrections for thefluorescence of silicon may be needed. Calcium X rays fromsample specimens cause silicon t

29、o fluoresce. This siliconradiation contributes to fluctuations in the background formagnesium measurements. If the effect is significant, thisinterference may be treated as a line overlap due to calcium.6. Apparatus6.1 X-ray Spectrometer, equipped for detection of softX-ray radiation in the range fr

39、m sulfonates and therefore containsulfur. To use these materials for preparation of the calibrationstandard blends, it is necessary to know their sulfur concen-trations. Test Method D1552, or other appropriate methods, canbe used to determine sulfur content.7.5.1.2 Secondary standards, such as those

40、 prepared frompetroleum additives, for example, can also be used if their usedoes not affect the analytical results by more than the repeat-ability of this test method.7.5.2 Di-n-butyl Sulfide, a high-purity standard with a cer-tified analysis for total sulfur content.NOTE 3Di-n-butyl sulfide is fla

45、ift can be advantageous. Monitors are stable, solid disksor pellets containing all elements covered by this test method.Two disks are preferred to correct for both sensitivity and baseline drifts. The high-concentration drift monitor provideshigh-count rates, so that for each analyte, counting error

46、 is lessthan 0.25 % relative. The low-concentration drift monitorprovides low-count rates, so that for each element, count rate issimilar to that obtained with the calibration blank, or zeromass % standard.10. Calibration10.1 For the Ka-spectral line for each analyte, assemble achannel per operating

47、 instructions of the X-ray instrument.Suggested, approximate instrument settings are listed in Table5. Actual settings can be instrument dependent; hence, theinformation in Table 5 is for guidance only.10.2 For correct operation of the X-ray instrument, as-semble the required measurement program, ca

48、lculation pro-gram, and monitor program (when drift correction monitors areimplemented), as appropriate.10.3 When drift correction monitors are implemented, mea-sure monitor intensities for each analyte.5Reagent Chemicals, American Chemical Society Specifications, AmericanChemical Society, Washingto
