The pans are then crimped shut, andanalyzed in a differential scanning calorimeter in a singledynamic heating step, ranging from 370

The percent metallic zinc in thesample is determined by measuring the energy associated withthe endothermic peak near 419C caused by the melting of themetallic zinc, and comparing this value to the heat of fusion ofpure zinc.4.

Calibration7.1 The instrument should be calibrated for heat flow asdescribed in the manufacturers instruction manual. In additionto, or as part of the manufacturers st

22、andard calibrationprocedure, the instrument should be calibrated using high-purity zinc-foil reference material. Approximately 2.8 to 3.0mg of reference material shall be weighed into a standardaluminum pan using a microbalance capable of weighing to atleast 10 g. The pan shall then be crimped using

23、 an aluminumlid, and the reference sample analyzed in a single dynamic stepranging from 370 to 435C at 10C per min, under a nitrogenpurge.7.2 When analyzed as just described, the reference sampleof zinc foil will give rise to an endothermic peak due to thefusion of zinc near 419C. The area under the

24、 endothermictransition, in joules per gram, should be measured eitherelectronically or manually, and should be within 2 J/g of purezinc (108 J/g).8. Procedure8.1 In the case of pigment samples, after thoroughly agitat-ing the container in which the sample is contained, weigh 2.8to 3.0 mg, to at leas

In the case of driedcoating films, it is recommended that a razor blade or razor-blade type knife be used to remove the coating from an areameasuring at least 12.7 mm by 12.7 mm (12 by12 in.) in size.This coating should then be

26、 ground briefly, and approximately2.8 to 3.0 mg weighed into a standard aluminum pan, whichshould then be crimped shut.8.2 The sample should be analyzed in a singe dynamic stepranging from 370 to 435C at 10C per min, under a nitrogenpurge. The area under the endothermic transition correspond-ing to
