BS593, Laboratory thermometers. BS604, Graduated measuring cylinders. BS605, Distillation receivers (inclu

10、ding Crow receivers). BS658, Apparatus for the determination of distillation range. BS2511, Determination of water by the Karl Fischer method. This standard forms one of a series of BritishStandards for solvents and allied products. First issued in1934, it was revised in1951 and the present edition

11、has been prepared as the result of a review of the standard in the light of present-day requirements. The standard does not apply to material intended for medicinal use, which is included in the British Pharmacopia. The technical content of the standard is substantially unchanged, but specific gravi

12、ty limits at25/25 C have been introduced for use in tropical climates and a limit for water, determined by the Karl Fischer method, has been set. The opportunity has also been taken to clarify the wording of the standard and to bring it into line with current conventions. A British Standard does not

13、 purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside fr

15、 shall be clear, colourless and free from matter in suspension, and shall consist essentially of diethyl ether, 1)C 2 H 5 OC 2 H 5 . 2 Specific gravity The specific gravity of the material at any one of the following temperatures shall be within the appropriate values as shown: 3 Distillation range

16、2) The material, on distillation in the manner described in Appendix A, shall yield at760mmHg pressure not less than95.0per cent by volume below36.0 C. 4 Water The material shall not contain more than1.0per cent by weight of water, determined in the manner described inBS2511 3) . 5 Residue on evapor

17、ation 2) The material shall not leave more than0.005per cent by weight of residue when tested in the manner described in Appendix B. 6 Acidity The material shall not contain more than0.002per cent by weight of acid, calculated as sulphuric acid, H 2 SO 4 , and determined in the manner described in A

18、ppendix C. 7 Peroxides 2) The material shall not show any peroxide when tested in the manner described in Appendix D. 8 Sulphur compounds The material shall not show any sulphur compounds when tested in the manner described in Appendix E. 9 Sample For the purpose of examination under this specificat

19、ion, a representative sample of the material measuring not less than half a litre shall be taken from an original and previously unopened container or from the bulk during packing, as may be arranged. The sample shall be placed in a clean, dry and air-tight glass-stoppered bottle of dark amber glass

20、 of such size that it is nearly filled by the sample. When it is necessary to seal the container, care shall be taken to avoid the risk of contaminating the contents in any way. 1) This name is approved by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry.

In rare cases, particularly where the material has been improper

22、ly stored, there may be an element of risk of explosion in carrying out the distillation and residue on evaporation tests, due to the presence of peroxides. It should always be ensured that peroxides are absent (see Appendix D) before commencing these determinations. 3) BS2511, “Determination of wat

It should always be ensured that peroxides are absent (see Appendix D) before commencing this determination. Apparatus The apparatus required, part of which is shown in

25、 Figure 1, comprises: a) Distillation flask of100ml distillation capacity, complying with BS571 4) . b) Thermometer No. F50C/100, complying with BS593 5) . c) Draught screen, complying with BS658 6) , except that the shelf shall have a central circular hole60mm in diameter, the edge of which is beve

26、lled to fit the contours of the distillation flask. d) Water bath with a steam coil, electrical immersion heater or other suitable heating device for maintaining the temperature of the water, which is determined by means of a thermometer No.C100C/50 complying with BS593, fitted into that portion of

27、the shelf which forms the lid of the water bath. e) Receiver, Type1, of100ml capacity, complying with BS605 7) , closed with a plug of cotton wool. f) Condenser, Type3, complying with BS658, equipped with a suitable thermometer. Corrections to be applied to the specified distillation temperatures be

28、fore commencing the distillation 1) Read the barometer and apply the corrections as described in BS658. 2) When the corrected barometric pressure, p, deviates from760mmHg, add the correction0.037 (p 760) Centigrade degrees to the specified distillation temperatures. NOTEThis correction is valid only

29、 for pressures above700mmHg. 3) If the thermometer gives incorrect readings at the corrected specified distillation temperatures, further correct the latter by adding the amount of error if the thermometer is reading high, or subtracting the amount of error if the thermometer is reading low. Procedu

30、re Assemble the apparatus as described in BS658, filling the condenser cooling bath with water at a temperature of5 2 C and immersing the receiver up to the90ml mark in a bath of water maintained at the same temperature. Place the water bath on its support so that it is flush with the underside of t

31、he shelf of the draught screen and fill it to within( in. of the top with water at60 C. Measure in the receiver100ml of the diethyl ether previously brought to the temperature of the condenser water, transfer as completely as possible to the distillation flask and add a few pieces of clean, dry poro

32、us pot. Place the flask, thermometers and receiver in position, close the neck of the receiver with a plug of cotton wool and ensure, by addition of ice, that the condenser cooling bath remains at a temperature of5 2 C. Regulate the supply of heat to the water bath so that the temperature of the wat

33、er is maintained at60 2 C throughout the distillation. This should ensure a distillation rate of3 to4ml per minute. Read the volume of distillate in the receiver when the flask thermometer just reaches either, a. the corrected specified distillation temperature or, b. the maximum temperature of the

34、distillation, whichever is the lower. 4) BS571, “Flasks for the determination of distillation range”. 5) BS593, “Laboratory thermometers”. 6) BS658, “Apparatus for the determination of distillation range”. 7) BS605, “Distillation receivers (including Crow receivers)”.BS579:1957 BSI 12-1999 3 Figure
