However, acceptable results can be achievedmanually with the use of a micro burette, with 10 ml capacityand accurate to 0.02 ml.6.2 A potentiometric titration assembly is

17、required for apotentiometric titration. The assembly consists of an automatictitrator fitted with a three electrode system together with a buretassembly, magnetic stir bar, magnetic stir plate, and glassbeaker.6.3 A temperature bath or hot plate that can maintain atemperature of 100 C.7. Reagents7.1

18、 In all cases, reagent grade chemicals must be used.7.2 Ortho-Cresol (99%) The solvent should be dis-pensed with an automatic dispensing system to prevent air orwater from entering the bottle.Alternatively, the solvent can bedistilled prior to use.7.3 Dichloro Methane (99.5%) The solvent shall befro

30、 should be 80C (65C). The mixture of solvent and yarn should be maintained atthis temperature and stirred until the yarn is completelydissolved.NOTE 4If the yarn is not completely dissolved in 30 minutes, continueheating, but inspect every 5 min. The total heating time should not begreater 45 min.11

31、.3 Remove the flask from the hot source as soon as thePET yarn is completely dissolved and quench by carefullyadding 60 ml of dichloromethane to the orthocreosol solution.Stir for an additional 5 min.11.4 Titrate the PET solution with KOH/methanol solutionusing an autotitrator.D7409071211.4.1 If col
