Summary of Test Method4.1 Atest specimen is analyzed in a pulsed NMR spectrom-eter calibrated with reference standard materials. The an

19、alyzerrecords in a nondestructive fashion the total NMR signal,which arises from the absolute amount of hydrogen atoms inthe reference standards and test sample. The absolute hydrogensignal intensity reported by the pulsed NMR instrument for thestandard and test specimens is normalized by the corres

20、pond-ing sample mass. The resulting signal-per-gram ratios are usedas a means of comparing theoretical hydrogen contents of thestandards with that of the sample. The result is expressed as thehydrogen content (on a mass % basis) of the sample.4.2 To ensure an accurate measure of the absolute hydroge

21、ncontent of the reference standards and sample, it is necessary toensure that the measured hydrogen signal intensity is alwaysdirectly proportional to the absolute hydrogen content of thestandards and sample.4.3 Undercounting of the reference standard with respect tothe sample is avoided by a number

22、 of strategies, includingaccurate filling into the linear response region of the samplecompartment so that the mass recorded for the sample repre-sents the true amount measured by NMR, and use of a recycledelay considerably greater than the longest relaxation timeconstant (T1) for the sample.5. Sign

23、ificance and Use5.1 Hydrogen content represents a fundamental quality of apetroleum distillate that has been correlated with many of theperformance characteristics of that product. Combustion prop-erties of gas turbine fuels are related primarily to hydrogencontent. As hydrogen content of these fuel

24、s decreases, sootdeposits, exhaust smoke, and thermal radiation increase. Sootdeposits and thermal radiation can increase to the point thatcombustor liner burnout will occur. Hydrogen content is aprocurement requirement of the following military fuels: JP-5specified in MIL-DTL-5624, JP-8 specified i

Reagents and Materials7.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals shall beused in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is

34、intended thatall reagents conform to the specifications of the Committee onD7171 162Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society wheresuch specifications are available.4Other grades may be used,provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of sufficientlyhigh purity to permit its use

39、rials.9. Sampling9.1 Take a homogeneous sample in accordance with Prac-tice D4057. Mix the sample prior to taking a representativealiquot as the test specimen.10. Preparation of Test Specimens and Standards10.1 Fig. 1 is an example of a PTFE plug. Dimensions maybe varied to best seal the chosen test

40、 cell. Drill and thread theplug hole to mate the insertion rod thread. All test cells andPTFE plugs used shall be well cleaned and dry. Weigh a cleanempty test cell and PTFE plug (W1) on an analytical balance tothe nearest 0.001 g. Use of a jig for supporting the test cell onthe balance pan is recom

41、mended for flat bottom test cells andrequired for round bottom test cells. For round bottom testcells, a paper clip dispenser (with hole in top) works well forthis function. Transfer a fixed volume (in accordance with thetolerances specified in 6.8) of a reference standard or testspecimen into the t

42、est cell to a fill height of nominally 32 mm(representing a nominal 6 mL volume). The choice of fillheight is not critical, but fill height shall be the same for allstandards and samples to ensure good results. Use the same testcell source (that is, manufacturer and part number) for allstandards and

43、 test specimens. This will ensure uniformity offluid height in the NMR sample compartment, an importantparameter in the test method. Take care to not introduce thefluid down the side of the test cell. Seal the reference standardcontainer immediately after the material transfer to minimizemoisture pi

44、ckup. Using the insertion rod with a PTFE plugattached, push the PTFE plug into the test cell until it is justabove the liquid surface (that is, nominal 1 cm), keeping thetube upright. Gently twisting the plug as it is inserted will aidthe escape of air from the test cell and normally ensure that th

45、elip of the plug is turned up around the entire circumference.Unscrew the insertion rod carefully without disturbing theplug. Weigh the filled, sealed test cell (W2) on the analyticalbalance to the nearest 0.001 g. Determine the sample massfrom the difference (W2 W1) of the two weighings.4Reagent Ch
