1、Designation: E 1731 06Standard Test Method forGravimetric Determination of Nonvolatile Residue fromCleanroom Gloves1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 1731; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the yea

2、r of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of solventextractable nonvolatile residue (NVR) from gloves used incle

3、anrooms where spacecraft are assembled, cleaned, or tested.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.1.3 The NVR of interest is that which can be extracted fromgloves using a specified solvent that has been selected for itsextracting qualities, or because it is representative o

4、f solventsused in the particular facility.Alternative solvents may be used,but since their use may result in different values beinggenerated, they must be identified in the procedure data sheet.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

5、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.

19、ry of Test Method4.1 A glove to be tested is cut into several standard-sizedpieces. The pieces are placed in a clean blanked container anda measured volume of solvent is added to the container. (SeeNote 1.)4.2 The container is placed in a heated ultrasonic cleaner, ora heated water bath, and heated

20、(and agitated if in an ultrasonicbath) for a specific length of time, after which the pieces ofglove are removed from the container.4.3 The solvent in the container is filtered into another cleancontainer and allowed to evaporate to a low volume.4.4 The solvent is transferred to a clean preweighed w

21、eigh-ing dish and evaporated to a constant weight.4.5 The results are expressed in mg/sq cm of glove surfacearea or in mg/unit mass of glove sections.4.6 A controlled blank shall be run on all solvents, filtrationcomponents, and all other equipment associated with theanalysis. In the event that more

22、 than one determination is runthe same day, additional blanks will not be necessary, but willrely on the value from the first test.4.7 NVR samples thus obtained may be used for analysissuch as IR or FTIR if required.NOTE 1Some cleanroom gloves are of a coated or layered construc-tion or have differe

23、nt textures applied to the inside and outside surfaces.Because the inside and outside surfaces of these gloves may releasedifferent quantities of nonvolatile residue, results using this method maynot reflect the actual potential or transfer of contamination from this typeof glove to hardware surface

24、s.5. Significance and Use5.1 The NVR obtained by this test method is that amountwhich is available for release by the gloves onto handledsurfaces.5.2 Evaporation of solvent at the stated temperature is toquantify the NVR that can be expected to exist at roomtemperature, since the slight difference b

25、etween room tempera-ture and the test temperature is not likely to result in significantvariances.5.3 Various other methods exist for determining NVR, forexample Practice G 120 and IES-RP-CC005.2. This test is notintended to replace test methods used for other purposes.6. Apparatus and Materials6.1

NVR and System Blank8.1 The NVR of the solvent, and all glassware and otheritems that will come in contact with the solvent during theanalysis, shall be determined before use. The only exception iswhen sever

37、al tests are to be run consecutively, in which case,the blank only needs to be determined once for a batch. It mustbe remembered that this solvent may absorb moisture from theatmosphere, so it should be kept covered and small quantitiesprocessed at one time.8.1.1 Pour 300 mL of solvent into a 500-mL

40、ctions.9.3 Cut and place in a beaker at least two sections 5 by 5 cmfrom each glove, preferably from the palm and the back of theglove. Cut up at least two gloves, or enough surface area for0.2 m, minimum, counting both sides of the glove, in aprecleaned 500-mL beaker. Test the gloves as received fr

41、omthe supplier. When reporting results on the basis of mg/unitmass, weigh a sample of cut sections of gloves to an accuracyof 0.01 mg. Place in 500-mL beaker as above.9.4 Add 300 mL of blanked NVR solvent to beaker. Coverbeaker with a watchglass to minimize sample contaminationfrom fallout.9.5 Place

42、 beaker in ultrasonic tank that has been filled withultrasonic tank fluid heated to 35 6 2C and install tank coverto position the beaker in the tank. Typical fluid used is D.I.water, but other fluids are allowed.9.6 Ultrasonic agitate for 15 min. This agitation is necessaryto assure that all availab

43、le NVR is contacted by the solvent andremoved from the glove segments being tested.9.7 Remove beaker from tank and extract glove sectionsusing precleaned tongs. Hold the glove segments over thebeaker until dripping ceases. Place the damp glove segmentson a tray or rack to dry. When they are dry, as

44、determined bylack of solvent odors, either discard, or store in a clean nylonbag, at the option of the analyst. No further analysis isperformed on these samples.9.8 Place the vessel in HEPA-filtered airflow at ambienttemperature. Position the beaker near or directly under theairflow. Allow evaporati

45、on to approximately 10 mL. It may benecessary to cover the vessel partly with a watchglass toprotect against fallout during evaporation.9.9 Transfer solvent to a clean, preweighed weighing dish.Rinse beaker with 10 mL of solvent and add the wash solventto the weighing dish. Repeat this three times.
