Place a 45-mL sample of the whole paint into a high-speed centrifuge tube and cap immediately. 3.3. Centrifuge the sample to produce a

8、minimum RCF of 4300 until the pigment and resin have separated. See Section 5.1 for RCF equation. 3.4. No separation is required for multi-component materials when the resin system is packaged separately. The resin system is generally labeled “curing agent” or “part B.” 3.5. Calibrate the titrimeter

9、 and pH electrodes with standard buffer pH 7.00 and pH 4.00 solutions. 3.6. Place 25 mL of dried o-xylene into an appropriately sized vessel. 3.7. Weigh a 10.0-g sample of resin solution from materials having an expected isocyanate value of less than 15.0 percent or 4.0-g sample of resin solution fr

10、om materials having an expected isocyanate value of 15.0 percent or greater into the vessel from Section 3.6. 3.8. Record the sample weight to the nearest 1.0 mg. 3.9. Add 20.00 mL of 1.7 N dibutylamine solution to the vessel from Section 3.6. The 1.7 N dibutylamine solution is prepared by diluting

11、290 mL of dibutylamine to 1.0 L with dried o-xylene. 3.10. Cap the vessel immediately. 3.11. Allow the sample to stir for a minimum of 15 min but no longer than 60 min at 25 2C. 3.12. Prepare a blank in the same manner, omitting the resin solution. 3.13. Wash down the sides of each vessel with 100 m

12、L of dried methanol. 3.14. Titrate the stirred blank with 1.0 N hydrochloric acid to the end point, which occurs at pH 5.0. 3.15. Record the volume of titrant used to the nearest 0.01 mL. 3.16. Titrate the stirred sample with 1.0 N hydrochloric acid to the end point, which occurs at pH 5.0. 3.17. Re

13、cord the volume of titrant used to the nearest 0.01 mL. 3.18. Prepare and titrate a duplicate sample. 3.19. Calculate the weight percent isocyanate. Duplicate analyses should not differ by more than 0.1 weight percent. See Section 5.2 for weight percent isocyanate calculation. 2015 by the American A

Methanol and o-xylene used for this titration should be passed through separate columns containing 3A molecular sieve to remove any moisture t

15、hat may be present. A recommended flow rate for passing methanol or o-xylene through a drying column is approximately 100 mL/min. Dried stock may be collected into amber bottles and preserved by placing a small amount of 3A molecular sieve in the bottles. 5. CALCULATIONS 5.1. Calculation for Relativ
