1、Designation: E1116 98 (Reapproved 2014)Standard Test Method forEmulsification Characteristics of Pesticide EmulsifiableConcentrates1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1116; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of re

2、vision, 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 describes a general procedure for thedetermination of emulsification spontaneity

3、and the emulsionstability characteristics of pesticide emulsifiable concentrateswhen diluted with water.1.2 Proper safety and hygiene precautions must be takenwhen working with pesticide formulations to prevent skin oreye contact, vapor inhalation, and environmental contamina-tion. Read and follow a

4、ll handling instructions for the specificformulation and conduct the test in accordance with goodlaboratory practice.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesaf

5、ety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility 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.

Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 emulsification spontaneitythe rapid formation ofan emulsion in the test water from agitation provided only bythe gravity addition of the product. For products of densitygreater than the water used, an excellent spontane

7、ity rating isassigned when the emulsion bloom (billowing) extends down-ward to near the bottom of the water, with no visible oil orcream droplets reaching the bottom of the test cylinder. Forproducts of density less than the water used, a rating ofexcellent is given if bloom occurs near the top of t

8、he water andno free oil is present. Spontaneity descriptions between excel-lent and nil (no emulsion formed, only free oil) are assignedvery-good, fair, and poor on a subjective basis.3.1.2 emulsion qualitya subjective evaluation of the emul-sion appearance. A rating of excellent (homogeneous), very

9、good, good, fair, and poor (nonhomogeneous) is assigned.3.1.2.1 DiscussionCream and oil separation may coexist.Normally, oil is located at either the extreme top or bottom ofthe liquid with cream between it and the rest of the emulsion.On rare occasions, separation occurs at both top and bottom ofth

10、e liquid (because of partition and solubility properties) andcare must be taken to so note and record.3.2 Separation:3.2.1 separation, creama discrete, opaque layer of con-centrated emulsion occurring at either the top or the bottom ofthe liquid.3.2.2 separation, oila discrete layer of nonemulsified

11、liquid occurring at either the top or the bottom of the liquid.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 In this test method, emulsifiable pesticide concentratesare added to water of a given hardness and at a specifiedtemperature to form an oil-in-water emulsion. Performance ofthe formulation is measured in term

12、s of emulsion spontaneity,emulsion stability under static conditions, and re-emulsification of the coalesced phase.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a guide for evaluating emul-sification characteristics of pesticide emulsifiable concentrates.It defines the stability of emulsified

13、 particles in water.Althoughnot absolute, the test method is a measure of expected emulsionstability in agricultural application equipment.6.

28、-ined as defined by actual field use applications.8.2 Add a specified amount, in accordance with productlabel directions, of the test emulsifiable concentrate at 25C(Note 4) to each cylinder. Deliver the emulsifiable concentrateusing a pipet from a height of 50 6 5 mm above the watersurface to the c

29、enter of the water surface. Delivery rate shouldbe approximately 1 mL/s. Observe and record emulsificationspontaneity.8.3 Stopper the graduated cylinders (do not grease) theninvert and right each cylinder ten times at the rate of about onecomplete cycle every 2 s. Record the initial emulsion quality

30、.8.4 Maintain each cylinder at 25C or at a constant tem-perature (Note 4) and allow the cylinders to remain undis-turbed. At 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, and 24 h, observe andrecord the emulsion quality and the millilitres of cream or oilseparation, or both.8.5 After the 24-h observation, invert and ri

31、ght each cylin-der ten times as outlined in 8.3. Return the cylinders to the25C constant temperature device. At 30 min observe andrecord the emulsion quality and the millilitres of cream or oilseparation, or both.8.6 Discard the emulsions in a safe manner.9. Precision and Bias9.1 Due to the variabil

32、ity of cream separation, oilseparation, and subjectiveness of emulsion quality for theparticular pesticide, no measurement of precision and bias canbe made for this test method.10.
