Terminology3.1 Definitions of Term Specific to this Standard:3.1.1 The pH of a solution has been defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen

6、ion activity.Asolution of pH 7 is neutralat 24 C. Lower numbers indicate increasing acidity; higher numbers, increasing alkalinity.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is designed to measure the pH of a distilled-water extract of wet blue. This is considered to be a measureof the acidity or a

8、able electrode. The meter shall have an accuracy of at least 0.01 pH unit and reproducibilityof 0.05 pH unit.5.2 Analytical Balance, sensitive to 0.01 g or greater.6. Reagents6.1 Purity of WaterUnless otherwise indicated, references to water shall be understood to mean distilled water or water ofequ

9、al purity. Distilled water shall have a pH value of not less than 5.5 nor more than 7.0 and shall give a residue of not more than0.5 mg, when 100 mL is evaporated and dried in a platinum dish.6.2 Commercially Standardized pH Solutions3:1 This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D

Let stand at the Standard Laboratory Temperature, 23.0 6 1C (73.4 6 1.8 F), with occasional agitation for

21、not less than 4 nor more than 24 h. Agitate thoroughly and if necessary transferto a clean beaker or decant if possible.9.1.1 If specimen was obtained as in 7.1.1 add water in the amount of ten times the mass of the specimen.9.1.2 If specimen was obtained as in 7.1.2 add water in the amount of twent

24、 difference figure (Delta pH) shall be reported to the nearest 0.05 pH unit.11. Precision and Bias11.1 This test method is adopted from the leather tanning industry where it has long been in use and approved for disseminationas a standard method before the inclusion of precision and bias statements

25、was mandated. The pH of wet blue can changesignificantly over time after removal from the chrome-tanning vessel. This change happens because chemical reactions involvingthe basicity of the chromium sulfate complex continue to occur within the wet blue. The amount and rate of these pH changes isdepen

The user is cautioned to verify that theprecision and bias (or reproducibility) of this method is adequate for the contemplated application.11.2 Areal world precision statement was determined through statistical examinati

Nine laboratories participated in this study, testing 16Wet Blue samples. Every “test result”

32、 represents an individual determination. The laboratories were asked to report a single testresult for 13 materials and duplicate test results for 3 materials. Except for the absence of replicate test results from all of the studymaterials, Practice E691 was followed for the design and analysis of t

33、he data; the details are give in an ASTM research report.411.3.1 Repeatability (r)The difference between repetitive results obtained by the same operator in a given laboratory applyingthe same test method with the same apparatus under constant operating conditions on identical test material within s

38、ment in accordance with 11.2.111.3.1 would normally have an approximate 95 % probability of being correct,however the precision statistics obtained in this ILS must not be treated as exact mathematical quantities which are applicable toall circumstances and uses. The limited number of materials for

39、which replicate results were reported essentially guarantees thatthere will be times when differences greater than predicted by the ILS results will arise, sometimes with considerably greater orsmaller frequency than the 95 % probability limit would imply. Consider the repeatability limit as a guide

40、, and the associatedprobability of 95 % as only a rough indicator of what can be expected.11.4 BiasNo information can be presented on the bias of the procedure in Test Method D6657 for measuring pH because nomaterial having an accepted reference value was included in the analysis.TABLE 1 pHMaterial
