Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method uses a static sealed apparatus consist-ing of two chambers separated by the test-film membrane. Thetest chemical in the vapor ph

For permeable films, more frequentsampling is necessary because equilibrium may be reachedwithin minutes or hours. For films with very low permeability,longer incubation times (week

See Pa-piernik et al4,5for additional details.5. Significance and Use

18、5.1 This test method provides a simple approach for deter-mining the transmission properties of film membranes andsheeting over a range of permeability exceeding four orders ofmagnitude. This test method is described here to measure thepermeability of films used in soil fumigation, but it is alsoapp

19、ropriate for other gases and membranes if the analyticalmethods are appropriately modified.5.2 This test method can be used for single or mixedcompounds. This test method uses small quantities of testchemicals in vapor form, and microgram to milligram quanti-ties of each chemical may produce a suffi

20、cient amount of vaporfor each test depending on the analytical methods.5.3 Interlaboratory testing showed that the MTC estimatedby this test method is relatively insensitive to the laboratoryprocedures. The interlaboratory testing involved measuring theMTC for several soil fumigant compounds and a w

21、ide range offilm permeability. Analysts with prior experience handling andanalyzing gaseous fumigant compounds had lower coefficientsof variation (10 to 20 %) compared to less experienced analysts(20 to 50 %) based on triplicate tests. The coefficient ofvariation between laboratories was higher for

22、less permeablefilm materials than for films with high MTC. This wasattributed to the additional length of the experiments andpotential for increased leakage from the apparatus and wasmost pronounced for less experienced analysts.6. Apparatus6.1 A sealed apparatus is constructed of inert and imperme-

23、able material (for example, stainless steel) such that a sampleof test membrane is held between the two chambers in a closedsystem. The selection of material is dependent on the gasesbeing considered. The apparatus (see Fig. 1) enables samplingof the time rate of change in the gas concentration in e

24、achchamber and the mass transfer coefficient. The apparatus isconfigured as shown in Fig. 1.6.1.1 Permeability ApparatusStainless steel pipe (forexample, 0.3 to 0.6 cm thick, 10- to 15-cm diameter) is cut toform cylinders with height 2 to 6 cm. The volume of thechamber affects the time to reach equi

25、librium; therefore, tallercylinders are appropriate for testing permeable films, shortercylinders for less permeable films. The ends of the pipe aretrued and the mating surfaces smoothed. Each cylinder iswelded to a flat steel plate (for example, 0.3 cm thick) at oneend, as shown in Fig. 2.6.1.2 Sam

26、pling PortsHoles are drilled and threaded on theside of each cylinder to allow installation of sampling ports.The holes should be located near the mid-point height of thecylinder (Figs. 1 and 2).6.1.3 The purpose of the ports is to allow access to theinside of the chamber for spiking and sampling. D

27、uring othertimes, ports should be sealed to prevent leakage. This can beaccomplished using a septum port or sampling valve asdescribed in 6.1.3.1 and 6.1.3.2.6.1.3.1 Septum PortA 1.6-mm steel (or brass) unionconnector is installed in each hole. Before installation, thethreads of the union are coated

28、 with epoxy to ensure a gastightseal. One port is installed in the collection chamber and twoports (on opposite sides of the cylinder) are installed in thesource chamber. The second port is used to vent the sourcechamber during spiking. A septum and threaded nut areinstalled onto the 1.6-mm union an

29、d the union threads coatedwith epoxy. The threaded nut is covered by a Swagelok6capand a septum (Fig. 3A). Samples are collected with a syringe4Papiernik, S. K., Yates, S.

Between sampling,the nonpunctured septum and cap should be tightened over t

32、hethreaded nut to prevent leakage from the pierced septumbetween sampling times.6.1.3.2 Sampling Valve PortA gastight sampling valve isscrewed onto the union (Fig. Fig. 3A) or directly into thechamber wall and the threads sealed with epoxy (Fig. Fig. 3B).One valve is installed in the collection cham

33、ber and one valveis installed in the source chamber. The valve shall be made ofinert and impermeable material and produce a gastight connec-tion to the cylinder wall. A polytetrafluoroethylene stopcockscrewed onto the union allows sample introduction or removal.Astainless steel two-way valve (1.6 mm

34、) screwed directly intothe drilled hole could also be used to allow sample introductionor removal (Fig Fig. 3B). The air volume within the valveshould be minimized.NOTE 1Other configurations for the chamber access ports arepossible, but design criteria and testing should demonstrate that they: (1)ar

35、e constructed of inert materials, (2) are non-leaking between samplingtimes, (3) minimize leaking during sampling, and (4) maintain integrityduring routine laboratory handling.7. Materials7.1 The apparatus can be used to measure diffusion of anarbitrary gas through a film membrane. The specifics of

38、 fumigation), chloropicrin,methyl bromide, and sulfuryl fluoride.7.3 Gas-Mixing ChamberGastight 1-L glass containerwith valves on both ends and a side sampling port. Other typesof gastight containers with sampling ports may be used. If aclear glass container is used, it is recommended that the glass

39、container be wrapped with aluminum foil to protect thefumigants from light. Some fumigants are photodegradable.7.4 A constant-temperature environmental chamber is usedto maintain constant temperature during testing. Since thetemperature is known to affect the MTC value, the variation inthe temperatu

Potential Hazards8.1 GeneralAppropriate laboratory and chemical safetyprocedures should be followed and materials and gases shouldbe used in accordance w

43、ith information provided on productlabels, safety data sheets, and established laboratory safetyguidelines.8.2 Gases under PressureWhen using gases stored underhigh pressure, the dispensing equipment should be appropriatefor the intended use. The equipment should be rated for the gascylinder or gas-

44、line pressures, or both, and pressure-reducingvalves and regulators used where needed.8.3 Fumigation gases are a class of chemicals that posesignificant health hazards. They generally are irritants andtoxic. Adverse human health effects include harm if inhaled,swallowed, or absorbed through the skin

45、; appropriate safetyprocedures should be used.9. Sampling, Test Specimens, and Test Units9.1 Test specimens should be sampled in accordance withPractice D1898. Tested samples should be representative of thebulk material; free of wrinkles, stretches, pinholes, otherimperfections; and of uniform thick

46、ness. Surface condition anddifferences in materials or construction of each side of the filmshall be reported.9.2 Cut the film test specimens into approximately 15- by15-cm pieces.9.3 Information concerning the film composition (forexample, thickness, presence of ultraviolet UV stabilizers,barrier p

47、olymers and additives, and so forth) and manufactur-ing should be reported, when available.10. Preparation of Apparatus10.1 Mix together a small amount of the epoxy resin andhardener. Spread a thin layer of the well-mixed epoxy glueover the exposed rim of the open edge of the source chamberside of t

48、he permeability apparatus using a flat stainless steelspatula. Place the test film onto the edge containing the glue.Make sure the film is spread flat and evenly (not stretched andwith no crevices). Spread a thin layer of well-mixed epoxy glueover the exposed rim of the collection chamber of the per

49、me-ability apparatus. Carefully place the rim of collection chamberover the film and mate the two halves of apparatus by aligningand joining them together to form a gastight seal. Care shouldbe taken to place the film and mate the two chambers withminimal movement after contact.10.2 After the glue is cured (usually overnight), trim theexcess film with a razor blade. Apply aluminum tape to theoutside of the apparatus over the seam between chambers andburnish to provide additional support and sealing of theapparatus. Place the constructed apparatus inside a
