The standard is pu

7、blished in two Parts, each Part being divided into Sections. The two Parts are: Part 1: Electrode pitch; Part 2: Electrode coke. Part 1 comprises the following Sections: The UK did not approve the determination of density (by pyknometer) method given in ISO6999:1983 and a national version using the

8、buoyancy method has been published. Other international methods of test for electrode pitch are under consideration and, subject to approval by the United Kingdom, will be published as they become available. This Section is identical with ISO9055 “Carbonaceous materials used in the production of alu

With reference to clause 4, water complying with grade3 of BS3978 “Specification for water for laboratory use” is suitable.

10、This standard describes a method of test only, and should not be used or quoted as a specification defining limits of purity. Reference to this Section should state that the method of test used is in accordance with BS6043-1.9:1989. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary pr

11、ovisions 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.

22、ffin B.P. or equivalent. 5 Apparatus Ordinary laboratory apparatus and 5.1 Bomb, of capacity of not less than 300ml, and so constructed that it will not leak during the test and that quantitative recovery of the liquids from the bomb may be readily achieved. The inner surface of the bomb may be made

23、 of stainless steel or any other material that will not be affected by the combustion process or products. Materials used in the bomb assembly, such as the head gasket and the lead-wire insulation, shall be resistant to heat and chemical action, and shall not undergo any reaction that will affect th

27、 6.1 Sampling Sample the pitch for electrodes in accordance with ISO6257. 6.2 Preparation of test sample Prepare the test sample immediately before the determination. If it is sufficiently hard, grind the whole of the test sample with a pestle and mortar to a particle size of less than2004m. If the

28、pitch is too soft for grinding, melt and mix the sample, ensuring that its temperature does not exceed 150 C and that the melting period does not exceed 10min. The material for the test portion may be taken from the molten sample. 7 Procedure 7.1 Preparation of bomb and test portion Cut a piece of f

29、iring wire (5.3) 100mm in length. Coil the middle section (about20mm) and attach the free ends to the terminals. Arrange the coil so that it will be above and to oneside of the sample cup (5.2). Insert between twoloops of the coil a wisp of the cotton or nylon thread (5.5) of such length that one en

30、d will extend into the sample cup. Place about 5ml of the sodium carbonate solution (4.4) in the bomb (5.1) and rotate the bomb in such a manner that the interior surface is moistened by the solution. Introduce into the sample cup the quantities ofsample and, if required, white oil (4.6) specifiedin

31、Table 1, weighing the sample to the nearest 0,1mg. (When white oil is used, stir the mixture with a short length of silica rod and allow the rod to remain in the sample cup during the combustion.) WARNING Do not use more than 0,8g total of sample and white oil or other low-sulfur combustible materia

32、l. Table 1 After repeated use of the bomb for sulfur determinations, a film may be noticed on the inner surface. This dullness shall be removed by periodic polishing of the bomb. A satisfactory method for doing this is to rotate the bomb in a lathe at about300 r/min and polish the inside surface wit

33、h emery polishing paper (5.6), coated with a light machine oil to prevent deep cutting, and then with the chromium(III) oxide paste (5.7) and water. This procedure will remove all but very deep pits and put a high polish on the surface. Before using the bomb, it shall be washed with soap and water t

34、o remove oil or paste left from the polishing operation. Use of sample masses containing over 20mg of chlorine may cause corrosion of the bomb. To avoid this, it is recommended that, for samples containing over 2% (m/m) chlorine, the sample mass be based on the chlorine content as given in the follo

35、wing table: Table 2 If the sample is not readily miscible with white oil, some other low-sulfur combustible diluent may be substituted. However, the combined mass of sample and non-volatile diluent shall not exceed 0,8g. 7.2 Addition of oxygen Place the sample cup in position and arrange the cotton

36、wisp or nylon thread so that the end dips into the sample. Assemble the bomb and tighten the cover securely. WARNING Do not add oxygen or ignite the sample if the bomb has been jarred, dropped or tilted. Admit oxygen slowly (to avoid blowing the oil from the cup) until the pressure indicated inTable

37、 3 is reached.

39、3 Combustion Immerse the bomb in the cold water bath (5.8). Connect the terminals to the open electrical circuit(5.4). Close the circuit to ignite the sample. WARNING Do not go near the bomb till at least 20s after firing. Remove the bomb from the bath after a further immersion period of at least 10

40、min. Release the pressure at a slow, uniform rate such that the operation requires not less than 1min. Open the bomb and examine the contents. If traces of unburned pitch or sooty deposits are found, discard the determination and thoroughly clean the bomb before again putting it in use. 7.4 Collecti

41、on of sulfur solution Rinse the interior of the bomb, the oil cup, and the inner surface of the bomb cover with a fine jet of water, and collect the washings in a 600ml beaker having a mark to indicate 75ml. Remove any precipitate in the bomb by means of a rubber policeman. Wash the base of the term

42、inals until the washings are neutral to a suitable indicator. (The volume of the washings is normally in excess of 300ml.) Add 10ml of the saturated bromine water (4.2) to the washings in the beaker. Place the sample cup in a 50ml beaker. Add 5ml of the saturated bromine water, 2ml of the hydrochlor

43、ic acid (4.1) and enough water just to cover the cup. Heat the contents of the beaker to just below its boiling point for 3min to 4min and add to the beaker containing the bomb washings. Wash the sample cup and the 50ml beaker thoroughly with water. Remove any precipitate in the cup by means of a ru

44、bber policeman. Add the washings from the cup and the 50ml beaker, and the precipitate, if any, to the bomb washings in the 600ml beaker. Do not filter any of the washings, since filtering would remove any sulfur present as insoluble material. 7.5 Determination Evaporate the combined washings to 200

45、ml on a hotplate or other source of heat. Adjust the heat to maintain slow boiling of the solution and add 10ml of the barium chloride solution (4.3), either in a fine stream or drop by drop. Stir the solution during the addition and for 2min thereafter. Cover the beaker with a fluted watch glass an

46、d continue boiling slowly until the solution has evaporated to a volume of approximately 75ml as indicated by the mark on the beaker. Remove the beaker from the hotplate (or other source of heat) and allow it to cool for 1h before filtering. Filter the supernatant liquid through an ashless, quantita

47、tive filter paper (see note1). Wash the precipitate with water, first by decantation and then on the filter, until free from chloride. Transfer the paper and precipitate to a tared crucible weighed to the nearest 0,1mg and dry (see note2) at low heat until the moisture has evaporated. Char the paper

48、 completely without igniting it, and finally heat at a bright red heat until the residue is white in colour. After combustion is complete, allow the crucible to cool to room temperature, and weigh to the nearest 0,1mg. NOTE 1The tared porcelain filter crucible (5.9) may be used in place of the filte

49、r paper. In this case the precipitate is washed free of chloride and then dried to constant mass at 500 C 25 C. NOTE 2A satisfactory means of drying, charring and combusting the paper and precipitate is to place the crucible containing the wet filter paper in a cold electric muffle furnace and to turn on the current. Drying, charring, and combustion usually will occur at the desired rate. 7.6 Blank Make a blank determination whenever new reagents, white oil or other low-sulfur combustible material are used. When running a blank on white oil,
