As the vulcanization proceeds and sulfur is gradually combined with

13、 the rubber, the free-sulfur content gradually decreases, so its level in any particular product bears some relation to its state of vulcanization, provided the formulation is known and the correct proportion of elemental sulfur (and other ingredients) has been incorporated. Vulcanizates containing

14、higher proportions of free sulfur than the rubber can dissolve are liable to bloom sulfur, hence certain product specifications include a maximum figure for free sulfur. WARNING Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This standard does not purpo

It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions. 1 Scope 1.1 This International Standard specifies three methods for t

16、he determination of free sulfur in vulcanized rubber: two versions of the copper spiral method, and the sodium sulfite method. 1.2 The copper spiral methods are also applicable, subject to the limitations described in clause 4, to unvulcanized compounds. 1.3 Annex A gives a table listing the sulfur

17、contribution, as a percentage by mass, to these free-sulfur methods for various commercial accelerators. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard.

All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently

19、 valid International Standards. ISO 383:1976, Laboratory glassware Interchangeable conical ground joints. ISO 1407:1992, Rubber Determination of solvent extract. 3 Principle 3.1 Copper spiral methods A and B 3.1.1 Method A The free sulfur in a test portion is extracted with acetone as in the determi

20、nation of solvent extract, described in ISO 1407, except that a spiral of clean copper gauze is placed in the flask containing the acetone. The copper reacts with the extracted sulfur, forming copper sulfide. When extraction is complete, the acetone solution is drawn off through a filter and discard

21、ed. The acetone-insoluble copper and copper sulfide remaining in the flask are treated with hydrochloric acid. The resulting hydrogen sulfide is passed through cadmium acetate solution, and the cadmium sulfide formed is determined iodometrically. 3.1.2 Method B Rapid copper spiral method B is the sa

22、me as copper spiral method A except that the extraction time is reduced by using a vapour-jacketed Soxhlet of reduced capacity (6 cm 3 ) to increase the extraction temperature. 3.2 Sulfite method The free sulfur in a test portion is reacted with aqueous sodium sulfite and the sodium thiosulfate so f

23、ormed is determined iodometrically.BS 7164-24:1996 2 BSI 10 December 2002 4 Limitations 4.1 The copper spiral methods generally determine elemental sulfur only, although certain sulfur-donating curatives, such as thiuram disulfide and diaminosulfides, can give rise to slightly high results. In addit

24、ion, the copper spiral methods are unsuitable for unvulcanized compounds if the added elemental sulfur is of the form insoluble in acetone, i.e. the so-called “insoluble” or amorphous sulfur. The total mass of free sulfur in the test portion shall be in the range 0,2 mg to 10 mg. 4.2 The sulfite met

25、hod is excessively sensitive to the presence of sulfur-donating curatives and to antioxidants, and shall not be used for unvulcanized compounds. 4.3 In the absence of sulfur-donating curatives, the methods are comparable in accuracy and precision. NOTE 1 In practice, in addition to determining free

26、elemental sulfur, some coordinately bound reactive sulfur such as that in thiuram disulfide and polysulfides may also give positive responses. 5 Copper spiral method A 5.1 Reagents and materials During the analysis, use only reagents of recognized analytical reagent grade and only distilled water or

27、 water of equivalent purity. 5.1.1 Acetone 5.1.2 Cadmium acetate, buffered solution. Dissolve 25 g of cadmium acetate dihydrate (CH 3 COO) 2 Cd2H 2 O and 25 g of sodium acetate trihydrate (CH 3 COONa3H 2 O) in water, add 100 cm 3of glacial acetic acid and make up to 1 dm 3with water. 5.1.3 Copper ga

Add 1 volume of concentrated 36 % (m/m) hydrochloric acid, c(HCl) = 10 mol/dm 3( 20 =1 , 18Mg/ m 3 ), to 1 volume of water. 5.1.6 Nitric acid, c(H

29、NO 3 ) = 10 mol/dm 3 . Add 10 volumes of concentrated 70 % (m/m) nitric acid, c(HNO 3 ) = 16 mol/dm 3( 20= 1,42Mg/m 3 ), to 6 volumes of water. 5.1.7 Iodine solution, c(I 2 ) 0,025 mol/dm 3 . 5.1.8 Sodium thiosulfate, accurately standardized solution, c(Na 2 S 2 O 3 ) = 0,05 mol/dm 3 . 5.1.9 Starch,

Substitutions may be made if they perform the

31、same function as the items listed. All ground-glass joints shall comply with the requirements of ISO 383 and shall be sealed by applying glycerol (5.1.11) before assembling. 5.2.1 Extraction flask (A), of capacity 150 cm 3 , with 34/35 conical ground-glass joint. 5.2.2 Soxhlet extractor (Y), with 34

32、/35 socket and 34/35 cone. Capacity of extractor (P) 20 cm 3to 30 cm 3 . 5.2.3 Graham condenser (Z), with 34/35 angle drip cone. 5.2.4 Reduction adapter (D), with 14/23 socket, 34/35 cone, and a gas inlet tube to reach to within 3 mm of the bottom of the extraction flask (5.2.1) when assembled. 5.2.

34、roximately 22 cm, with 14/23 angle drip cone, 14/23 socket and side arm with 10/19 cone. 5.2.9 Dropping funnel (G), of capacity 100 cm 3 , with 14/23 cone, modified stem and 14/23 stopper. 5.2.10 Micro-immersion filter (Emich pattern) (H), stem approximately 75 mm long, diameter of disc 10 mm, poros

35、ity grade 3. 5.2.11 Laboratory mill. 5.3 Procedure 5.3.1 Preparation of copper spiral 5.3.1.1 Cut about 5 g of the copper gauze (5.1.3) to form a 10 mm wide strip and loosely roll to form a spiral approximately 20 mm in diameter, the turns being conveniently held in place by a loop of copper wire. 5

36、.3.1.2 Clean the spiral, immediately before use, by dipping in cold dilute nitric acid (5.1.6) for a few seconds, sufficient to cause the copper to become clean and bright. Remove all traces of acid by thoroughly and repeatedly washing in water. Wash with acetone (5.1.1) and dry. 5.3.2 Extraction of

37、 free sulfur 5.3.2.1 Prepare the rubber by finely cutting to pass through a 1,70 mm sieve or thinly milling to a thickness not exceeding 0,5 mm and weigh a test portion of approximately 1 g to the nearest 0,1 mg (mass m). If there is evidence of sulfur bloom, weigh a 0,5 g test portion to the same t

38、olerance. If the rubber is unvulcanized, weigh a test portion which will contain not more than 10 mg of free sulfur. 5.3.2.2 Place the copper spiral, prepared as specified in 5.3.1, in the 150 cm 3extraction flask (A) (5.2.1) and extract the test portion for not less than 4 h, following the procedur

39、e specified in 5.3.2.3. 5.3.2.3 Roll the weighed test portion in the filter paper or polyamide cloth (5.1.4) (previously extracted with acetone) to form a loose roll from which the rubber cannot fall and so that no part of the rubber is anywhere in contact with any other part of the rubber. Place th

40、e roll in the Soxhlet extractor (Y) (5.2.2) and pour into the extraction flask (A) 75 cm 3of acetone. Assemble the apparatus and adjust the rate of heating such that the quantity of acetone distilled will fill the extractor 10 to 20 times per hour. 5.3.2.4 If, at the end of the extraction period, th

41、e spiral is heavily blackened, add a second spiral prepared as specified in 5.3.1 and continue the extraction for a further 2 h. If no blackening is apparent, it will suffice to add a further piece of copper gauze about 10 mm square and continue the extraction for 1 h. 5.3.2.5 Disconnect the extract

42、ion flask, remove the reduction adapter (D) (5.2.4) and filter off the acetone through the micro-immersion filter (H) (5.2.10). Wash the spirals with three portions of about 20 cm 3of hot acetone, removing the washings each time through the micro-immersion filter. 5.3.3 Determination of extracted fr

43、ee sulfur 5.3.3.1 Assemble the extraction flask (A) now containing the copper spirals, together with the micro-immersion filter (H) and reduction adapter (D), into the apparatus of Figure 2. Introduce 100 cm 3of cadmium acetate solution (5.1.2) into the receiver (J) (5.2.5) and fill the gas-washing

44、bottles (K and L) (5.2.6) to a depth of about 10 mm with the same solution. Pass a stream of nitrogen (5.1.10) through the apparatus to displace the air and then adjust the flow to about one bubble per second in flask J.BS 7164-24:1996 4 BSI 10 December 2002 5.3.3.2 Introduce 50 cm 3of dilute hydroc

45、hloric acid (5.1.5) slowly from the dropping funnel (G) (5.2.9) into flask A, heat slowly to boiling and continue to boil gently for 20 min to 30 min. Towards the end of this period, increase the flow of nitrogen to sweep over all traces of hydrogen sulfide. The solution in gas-washing bottle K shou

46、ld be clear and colourless; if this is not so, it is an indication that the gas flow has been too rapid and the determination shall be repeated using a smaller test portion or slower rate of gas flow. Disconnect the receiver adapter (E) (5.2.7) from the condenser side arm and, whilst holding it at a

47、n angle, add from a pipette a measured volume (V) of iodine solution (5.1.7) (usually 20 cm 3is a suitable quantity) to flask J, so that excess iodine is present. 5.3.3.3 Allow the iodine to react with any precipitate adhering to the entry tube and, when all the precipitate has dissolved, remove and

48、 rinse the tube. Cool the solution to approximately 15 C. Titrate the excess iodine with sodium thiosulfate solution (5.1.8) (volume V 1 ), using starch solution (5.1.9) as the indicator. 5.3.3.4 Carry out a blank test using all the reagents, including a volume V (see 5.3.3.2) of iodine solution (5.

49、1.7) and 100 cm 3of cadmium acetate solution (5.1.2), but omitting the test portion. Record the volume of standard sodium thiosulfate solution needed (V 2 ). 5.3.3.5 The difference between the volume of sodium thiosulfate used in the blank test and that used in the determination is equivalent to the iodine which has reacted with the cadmium sulfide. 5.4 Expression of results Calculate the free-sulfur content, expressed as a percentage by mass, from the formula: 6 Copper spiral
