Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of p

11、.BS6043-4.5:1991 BSI 10-1999 1 0 Introduction The binders used in cold ramming pastes may be coal tar or bituminous in character or may alternatively comprise one or more resins. Certain types of resins evolve water as a result of the polymerization process; this British Standard determination is no

12、t suitable for application to ramming materials containing resin binders. 1 Scope This Section of BS 6043 describes an azeotropic distillation method for the determination of the water content of unbaked cold ramming pastes used in aluminium manufacture. The method is applicable to cold ramming past

13、es made with coal tar or bituminous binders, having water contents in the range0.1% to 2% (m/m). The method is not applicable to cold ramming pastes made with resin-based binders, e.g. phenol-formaldehyde or foam types. NOTE 1Water contents in excess of2% (m/m) may be determined by using a larger re

14、ceiver. NOTE 2The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Principle A sample of cold ramming paste is heated under reflux with xylene. The condensate of xylene and water is collected in a graduated receiver and the volume of water which separate

15、s out in the graduated part of the receiver is measured. 3 Reagent WARNING. Refer to the reagent suppliers health and safety data sheets for the precautions which are to be observed for the safe use of the reagent. 3.1 Xylene, any of its isomers, or a mixture of these isomers in any proportion provi

16、ded that the boiling range is between130 C and 140 C, of recognized analytical grade. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Ordinary laboratory apparatus 4.2 Dean and Stark apparatus, complying with type1 of BS756:1952, comprising the items described in4.2.1 to 4.2.4. Before use, remove all traces of contamination from t

17、he graduated receiver (4.2.2) and from the interior of the reflux condenser (4.2.3) by washing them successively with, for example, a proprietary laboratory detergent, distilled water and acetone, then drying. Perfect cleanliness of the apparatus is essential. NOTEThis cleaning procedure ensures goo

For cold ramming pastes with water contents in excess of2% (m/m) use a receiver of10mL capacity, graduated at every0.2mL with a maximum error of 0.06mL. 4.2.3 Reflux condenser, water-jacketted, with a ground-glass joint to fit the receiver (4.2.

22、re Weigh the test sample (see clause 6) to the nearest0.1g then transfer it quantitatively to the distillation flask(4.2.1). Add100mL of the xylene(3.1) to the distillation flask containing the test portion. Attach the flask to the receiver(4.2.2) and circulate cold water through the jacket of the c

23、ondenser(4.2.3). Heat the flask gently until the test portion has dispersed in the xylene, then adjust the rate of heating so that the condensate falls from the end of the reflux condenser at a rate of two to five drops per second. Continue the distillation until condensed water is no longer visible

24、 in any part of the apparatus except in the bottom of the graduated receiver and until the volume of collected water remains constant for5min. If a persistent ring of condensed water forms in the condenser tube, remove it by increasing the rate of distillation by a few drops per second for a few min

25、utes. When the carry-over of water is complete, allow the receiver and its contents to cool to room temperature and read the volume of water to the nearest scale division. 8 Calculation and expression of results Calculate the water content, W, as a percentage by mass (see note) from the following eq

26、uation: where NOTEThe assumption that1mL of water weighs1g is sufficiently accurate for the purpose of this determination. Express the result to the nearest0.05% (m/m); if condensate is seen in the receiver for a result whichis less than0.05% (m/m), report the result as“trace less than0.05% (m/m)”.

27、9 Test report The test report shall include the following information: a) a complete identification of the sample; b) a reference to this British Standard, i.e.BS6043-4.5:1991; c) the results calculated and expressed in accordance with clause 8; d) any unusual features noted during the determination
