10、 worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represente

11、d on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are draf

12、ted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Sta

13、ndard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 16152 was prepared

14、by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 9, Thermoplastic materials. It replaces ISO 6427:1992, Annex B, which has been technically revised. The revised method tightens the physical parameters of the test to provide improved repeatability and reproducibility. BS ISO 16152:2005vInt

15、roduction This International Standard specifies a method for the quantitative determination of those components of polypropylene that are soluble in xylene. This new method defines more precisely the factors that have the greatest influence on the repeatability and reproducibility of the determinati

16、on. The polypropylene is dissolved in hot xylene, then cooled under controlled conditions down to 25 C, which results in the precipitation of the insoluble fraction. The soluble matter remains in the xylene. The xylene is then evaporated and the residue weighed. The solubles content of polypropylene

17、 is important as it has a major influence on the properties of the polypropylene. BS ISO 16152:2005blank1Plastics Determination of xylene-soluble matter in polypropylene 1 Scope 1.1 This International Standard specifies a method for determining the mass fraction of a polypropylene homopolymer or cop

18、olymer which is soluble in xylene at 25 C. 1.2 A weighed amount of dried sample is dissolved in xylene under reflux conditions, then cooled under controlled conditions and maintained at 25 C to ensure controlled crystallization of the insoluble fraction. 1.3 The xylene-soluble fraction is then recov

19、ered by evaporation of the xylene and determined by weighing the residue. 1.4 Other materials with solubilities similar to that of the xylene-soluble fraction, such as additives, may interfere with the determination. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and

20、definitions apply. 2.1 xylene-soluble fraction Ssthat percentage, by mass, of the polymer that does not precipitate out when a solution of the polymer in xylene is cooled from reflux temperature to +25 C and held at that temperature for a specified period of time 3 Apparatus 3.1 Reflux condenser, le

BS ISO 16152:20052 3.9 Thermostatically controlled water bath, with sufficient cooling capacity to maintain a constant bath te

23、mperature of 25 C 0,5 C while cooling down the flask containing the xylene/polymer solution (see 5.3.8 and 5.3.9). 3.10 Filter paper, fluted, Whatman No. 4, No. 541 or equivalent, at least 125 mm in diameter. 3.11 Funnel, 60, or equivalent, at least 125 mm in diameter. 3.12 Vacuum oven. 3.13 Disposa

24、ble aluminium pans, 300 ml capacity, with smooth sides. 3.14 Temperature-controlled hotplate. 3.15 Analytical balance, with a minimum weighing sensitivity of 0,1 mg (a sensitivity of 0,01 mg is preferred). 3.16 Desiccator, containing an appropriate desiccant. 3.17 Timer, preferably with an alarm, re

25、ading in minutes. 3.18 Oven, conventional forced-air or gravity-convection type. 4 Reagents 4.1 Reagent-grade ortho-xylene (o-xylene), assay by gas chromatography (GC) 98 % min.; ethylbenzene content as determined by GC less than 2 %; evaporation residue at 140 C less than 0,002 g/100 ml; boiling po

26、int 144 C. or 4.2 Reagent-grade para-xylene (p-xylene), assay by gas chromatography (GC) 98 % min.; ethylbenzene content as determined by GC less than 2 %; evaporation residue at 140 C less than 0,002 g/100 ml; boiling point 138 C. Reagent-grade ortho-xylene (4.1) shall be used as the reference solv

27、ent whenever there is a dispute between laboratories on test results, unless the laboratories agree otherwise. 5 Procedure 5.1 Preparation of the xylene 5.1.1 Although stabilization of the xylene is not required, antioxidants shall be added to prevent degradation when testing unstabilized powders or

28、 beads. Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), 4,4-thiobis(6-tert-butyl-m-cresol) and tetrakismethylene(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyhydrocinnamate)methane at an approximate concentration of 0,02 g/l of xylene have been found to be effective stabilizers. Agitate with a magnetic stirrer bar and heat for a min

29、imum of one hour at 80 C to 90 C to ensure thorough mixing of the antioxidants and the xylene. This heating temperature has been chosen as it is suitable for BHT, which is relatively volatile. 5.1.2 Degas the xylene every 24 h by purging with nitrogen gas for a minimum of 1 h. 5.2 Determination of l

30、evel of impurities in the xylene (solvent blank) 5.2.1 The purpose of the solvent blank is to determine the evaporation residue, i.e. the amount of foreign matter in the xylene. BS ISO 16152:20053A blank test should preferably be run on every new batch of xylene. If, however, the xylene is extra-pur

31、e grade (minimum 99,5 %) and is used immediately after being opened, a blank test is not necessary. If all the xylene is not used immediately (within 3 days), a blank test shall be run. It is recommended that xylene be purchased in glass or glass-lined containers of a size such that the xylene will

32、be used within 3 days of opening. Containers of larger size may be used if the xylene is used up within a short period of time. The purpose of this time limit is to ensure purity and minimize pick-up of moisture and other contaminants. Carry out the blank test in triplicate, taking three test portio

33、ns from each bottle or batch of xylene. 5.2.2 Pipette a 200 ml test portion of unstabilized or stabilized xylene into a clean, empty flask. 5.2.3 Place a filter paper or equivalent (3.10) in a funnel (3.11) in a funnel rack over a 250 ml flask (3.8). 5.2.4 Pour the 200 ml of xylene into the funnel a

34、nd allow the filtrate to drip into the flask. Continue the filtration until all the filtrate has been collected. 5.2.5 Dry an aluminum pan (3.13) for 30 min in an oven (3.18) at 200 C. Allow the pan to cool to room temperature in a desiccator (3.16). Weigh the clean, dry pan to the nearest 0,1 mg. 5

35、.2.6 Using a pipette, transfer a 100 ml aliquot of the filtered xylene into the weighed aluminum pan. 5.2.7 Place the pan on a hotplate (3.14) maintained at 140 C to 150 C. Allow the xylene to boil gently to avoid splashing. Blanket the pan with a slow stream of nitrogen. Continue heating until the

36、residue in the pan is almost dry. 5.2.8 Place the pan in a vacuum oven (3.12) at 100 C 10 C at a pressure less than 13,3 kPa for a length of time known to be sufficient to dry the residue to constant mass. 5.2.9 Allow the pan to cool to room temperature in the desiccator, then weigh to the nearest 0

37、,1 mg. 5.2.10 Calculate the average of the results of the three determinations. 5.3 Determination of percentage xylene-soluble matter in the polypropylene NOTE The procedure is described for the particular case of a magnetic stirrer with a hotplate (see 3.4) and a flat-bottomed flask (see 3.2). 5.3.

38、1 If necessary, dry the sample before analysis. For drying, use a vacuum oven at 70 C 5 C at a pressure less than 13,3 kPa for a minimum of 20 min. Allow the sample to cool in a desiccator to prevent moisture pick-up. NOTE Polymer flakes and beads are dried before testing to eliminate moisture that

39、can influence the initial mass of the test portion. With large pellets or beads, where there is concern that the test portion will not dissolve in a reasonable timeframe, the pellets or beads may be ground to an appropriate size to ensure faster dissolution. Care shall be taken not to mechanically s

40、hear the polymer chains or to increase the level of xylene-soluble matter. Dry the ground material as specified above in this subclause. 5.3.2 Weigh out a test portion of the size given in Table 1, except when the expected soluble-matter content is unknown or referee testing between laboratories is

41、being conducted. In such cases, use a test portion of 2,0 g 0,1 g. Weigh the test portion to the nearest 0,1 mg. Pour the test portion into a flat-bottomed flask. Place a magnetic stirrer bar in the flask. 5.3.3 Pipette 200 ml of unstabilized or stabilized xylene into the flask. NOTE Larger quantiti

42、es may be used in the case of test portions that are difficult to dissolve or filter and/or when a larger amount of filtrate is needed for further analysis. BS ISO 16152:20054 5.3.4 Attach the flask to the condenser. 5.3.5 Place an insulating disc on top of the magnetic-stirrer hotplate to prevent l

43、ocalized heating of the flask. Position the flask and condenser on top of the insulating disc (see Figure 1). Insert the nitrogen supply tube in the top of the condenser. Turn on the cooling water to the condenser. Key 1 nitrogen flow 2 reflux condenser 3 flat-bottomed flask 4 conical flask 5 stirre

44、r bar 6 insulating disc 7 magnetic stirrer with temperature-controlled hotplate Figure 1 Examples of equipment set-up 5.3.6 Blanket the contents of the flask with a slow flow of nitrogen directed across the top of the condenser, not directly into the condenser, to minimize possible xylene loss. The

45、nitrogen flow rate should preferably be approximately 2 l/h. 5.3.7 Heat the polymer/xylene mixture to the reflux temperature while stirring. Stirring shall be vigorous enough to obtain a deep vortex, which keeps the boiling under control and prevents the mixture boiling up into the condenser. Once t

46、he reflux temperature is reached, continue to stir for 30 min. The liquid should be perfectly clear. Ensure that refluxing is gentle so that no localized burning or sticking of the polymer to the flask walls occurs. BS ISO 16152:20055NOTE If a hotplate is used, it should preferably be used at a temp

47、erature setting of approximately 30 C above the boiling point of xylene.

Detach the flask from the condenser

48、 and cover. Allow the solution in the flask to cool in air from the reflux temperature to below 100 C (this will normally take 12 min to 14 min). 5.3.9 Transfer the flask to a thermostatically controlled water bath at 25 C 0,5 C. Do not shake the flask to break up any precipitate before immersing th

49、e flask in the bath. Do not shake the flask while the polymer solution is still hot as this may create a safety hazard. 5.3.10 Without stirring, cool the solution for 30 min in the bath at 25 C 0,5 C. Use a timer, preferably with an alarm, to ensure that the time allowed for precipitation of dissolved polymer from the solution is between 30 min and 32 min. Remove the flask from the bath. Stir or gently shake the flask to break up any precipitated-polymer gel. NOTE The rate of coolin
