Summary of Test Method4.1 The total pore volume of a catalyst or catalyst carrier is determined as the difference between the particle volume and thetrue volume, measured by mercury intrusion and hel

20、ium pycnometry, respectively. The particle volume is determined by mercuryintrusion at ambient pressure and the true volume is determined by helium displacement at pressures above ambient.5.

34、e precautions given by the following:FIG. 1 Schematic Diagram of BuretteD6761 1738.1.1 Mercury is a hazardous substance that can cause illness and death. Mercury can also be absorbed through the skin; avoiddirect contact.8.1.2 Always store in closed containers to control its evaporation, and use it

35、only in a fume hood or in well-ventilated rooms.8.1.3 Wash hands immediately after any operation involving mercury.8.1.4 Exercise extreme care to avoid spilling mercury. Clean up spills immediately using procedures recommended explicitlyfor mercury.8.1.5 Recycling of waste mercury is recommended and

36、 to be conducted in accordance with local government hazardous wasteregulations. Disposal of waste mercury and mercury contaminated materials should be performed as mandated by local governmenthazardous waste regulations.9. Procedure9.1 For Mercury Intrusion Instruments:9.1.1 Weigh the empty penetro

37、meter with sealing device in place (WC).9.1.2 Place the empty penetrometer in the low pressure port of the instrument, seal it, and follow the manufacturersrecommendations for evacuating the penetrometer and subsequently filling it with mercury.9.1.3 When the penetrometer is completely filled with m

38、ercury, follow the manufacturers recommendations for bringing thelow pressure port to atmospheric pressure.9.1.4 When the low pressure port is again at atmospheric pressure, unseal the penetrometer and remove it from the low pressureport. (WarningAs the penetrometer is removed from the low pressure

39、port, be sure to tilt the bulb end of the penetrometer downand the stem up, so mercury does not spill from the open stem end.)9.1.5 Weigh the mercury-filled penetrometer using an analytical balance, and record this weight as (WC). Empty thepenetrometer, dispose of the mercury in an approved containe

40、r, and clean the penetrometer.9.1.6 Weigh the sample using an analytical balance. Record this as (W).9.1.7 Hold the penetrometer with the stem down and carefully pour the sample into the bulb. (WarningWhen pouringpowders into the bulb, place your finger over the stem opening in the center of the bul

41、b so that powder does not enter the stem.Large granules or chunks may be loaded with forceps. Touching such pieces with the fingers should be avoided as skin oils maybe transferred that can slightly alter the results or create evacuation problems.)9.1.8 Seal the penetrometer, being careful to avoid

42、using excessive sealing grease.9.1.9 Weigh the sealed penetrometer with the sample using an analytical balance. Record this weight as (Ws).9.1.10 Place the penetrometer assembly with the sample in the low pressure port of the instrument, seal it, and follow themanufacturers recommendations for evacu

43、ating the penetrometer and performing a low pressure analysis.9.1.11 When the low pressure run is complete, bring the low pressure chamber back to atmospheric pressure and follow themanufacturers recommendations for removing the penetrometer from the low pressure port. (WarningAs the penetrometer is

44、removed from the low pressure port, be sure to tilt the bulb end of the penetrometer down and the stem end up, so mercury doesnot spill from the open stem end.)9.1.12 Weigh the sealed penetrometer with sample and filled with mercury using an analytical balance. Record this weight as(WS).9.2 For Merc

45、ury Intrusion Using the Burette Method:9.2.1 Place a coolant (liquid nitrogen or dry ice-acetone mixture) around the cold trap.9.2.2 Close the vent valve (A) and the sample cell valve (C), and evacuate the burette by opening the vacuum valve (B).9.2.3 Slowly open the sample cell valve and allow merc

46、ury to fill the sample cell and the burette. Close the sample cell valve(C) when the mercury level is 1 to 2 cm above the 23 cm mark. Open the vent valve (A) to allow ambient pressure in the burette.Adjust the mercury level in the burette to the 23 cm mark by slowly draining mercury via the sample c

47、ell valve (C) into the mercuryreservoir.9.2.4 Place a lid on the mercury reservoir and weigh it using an analytical balance (Wb).9.2.5 Drain the mercury from the burette and the sample cell into the mercury reservoir and close the sample cell valve (C).9.2.6 Weigh the catalyst sample using an analyt

48、ical balance and record this weight as (W). Place this sample in the sample cell.Connect the sample cell to the burette and place the mercury reservoir under the sample cell with the tip of the sample cell valve(C) submerged in mercury.FIG. 2 Pycnometer ApparatusD6761 1749.2.7 Evacuate the burette a

49、nd sample cell with sample by closing the vent valve (A) and slowly opening the vacuum valve (B)in order to prevent fine particles from entering into the burette.9.2.8 Allow the sample to degas at 0.05 torr or lower for a minimum of 30 min before filling with mercury.9.2.9 Repeat steps 9.2.2 through 9.2.4 giving the weight of the mercury reservoir (Wb).9.2.10 Drain the mercury from the burette and the sample cell into the mercury reservoir, taking care that afterwards no particlesof the sample are floating on the mercury in the reservoir.9.3 For Hel
