1、Designation: D7546 09Standard Test Method forDetermination of Moisture in New and In-Service LubricatingOils and Additives by Relative Humidity Sensor1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7546; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or

2、, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the quantitative determinationof water in new and in-se

3、rvice lubricating oils and additives inthe range of 10 to 100 000 mg/kg (0.001 to 10% wt./wt.) usinga relative humidity (RH) sensor. Methanol, acetonitrile, andother compounds are known to interfere with this test method.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units

4、 of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 WarningSamples tested in this test method can beflammable, explosive, and toxic. Use caution when handlingthem before and after testing.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the

5、responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

6、y3.1 For definitions of terms used in this test method, refer toTerminology D4175.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 An aliquot of sample is injected onto a heated stainlesssteel coil. The temperature of the coil is programmable in 1Cincrements from 25C to 200C. The coil is maintained at aconstant tempera

7、ture for the duration of the test. As the sampletravels down the coil, an opposing dry inert gas carries thethermally evolved moisture past a relative humidity sensor.The sensor signal is integrated over time to provide a measure-ment of total mass of water in the sample.4.2 The sample injection may

8、 be done either by mass or byvolume.4.3 This test method utilizes anhydrous compressed gas orambient air passed through a desiccant to prevent contamina-tion from moisture present in the atmosphere.4.4 Viscous samples can be analyzed by preheating them toplace them in a more fluid state allowing the

9、m to be drawn intoa syringe, or by dissolving them in a compatible anhydroussolvent. Care should be taken to minimize time spent preheat-ing samples to prevent moisture loss.5. Significance and Use5.1 Knowledge of the water content of lubricating oils,additives, and similar products is important in

10、the manufacture,purchase, sale, transfer, or use of such petroleum products tohelp in predicting their quality and performance characteristics.5.2 For lubricating oils, the presence of water can lead topremature corrosion and wear, an increase in the debris loadresulting in diminished lubrication an

11、d premature plugging offilters, impedance to the effect of additives, and undesirablesupport of deleterious bacterial growth.6. Interferences6.1 Methanol and acetonitrile are known to interfere withthe determination of moisture by this test method. Thesesubstances contribute to a high bias in the fi

12、nal results. Moregenerally, some short-chained polar molecules mimic the effectof water at the RH sensor resulting in a positive interference.Strong polar solvents, such as n-methyl-pyrrolidone, can se-verely damage the RH sensor.7.
