2、last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 These test methods cover the evaluati
3、on of the resis-tance of glass containers to chemical attack. Three test methodsare presented, as follows:1.1.1 Test Method B-A covers autoclave tests at 121C onbottles partially filled with dilute acid as the attacking medium.1.1.2 Test Method B-W covers autoclave tests at 121C onbottles partially
4、filled with distilled water as the attackingmedium.1.1.3 Test Method P-W covers autoclave tests at 121C onpowdered samples with pure water as the attacking medium.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values in parentheses are for information only.1.3 This standard
5、 does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use3.1 The solubility of glass in contact with food, beverages,or pharmaceutical products is an important consideration forthe safe packaging and storage of such materials. Autoclaveconditions
8、are specified since sterilization is often employedfor the packaging of the product. It also represents one of themost extreme conditions, particularly of temperature, thatcontainers will ordinarily experience. Any of the three testmethods described may be used to establish specifications forconform
9、ity to standard values, either as specified by a cus-tomer, an agency, or “The United States Pharmacopeia:”3.1.1 Test Method B-A is intended particularly for testingglass containers primarily destined for containment of productswith a pH under 5.3.1.2 Test Method B-W is intended particularly for tes
10、tingglass containers to be used for products with a pH of 5.0 orover.3.1.3 Test Method P-W is a hydrolytic autoclave test prima-rily intended for evaluating samples from untreated glasscontainers. It is often useful for testing the resistance ofcontainers of too small capacity to permit measurements

If necessary,neutralize the indicator solution with 0.020N sodium hydroxide(NaOH) solution so that the titer of five drops of the indicatorsolu
20、tion in 100 mL of the special distilled water does notexceed 0.02 mL of 0.020N NaOH solution. In titrations usingthe methyl red indicator solution, the end point shall be takenat a pH of 5.6.6.3 Phenolphthalein Indicator SolutionDissolve 0.5 g ofphenolphthalein in 60 mL of ethyl alcohol (95 %) and d
21、ilutewith water to 100 mL.6.4 Sodium Hydroxide Solution, Standard (0.020N)Dissolve 100 g of NaOH in 100 mL of water in a 150-mL testtube. Avoid wetting the top of the test tube. Stopper the tubeloosely with a stopper covered with tinfoil and allow to standin a vertical position until the supernatant
22、 liquid is clear.Withdraw some of the clear solution in a measuring pipet anddeliver 1.3 mL into a paraffin-lined bottle containing 1 L ofcarbon dioxide (CO2)-free water. Stopper the bottle with atwo-hole stopper carrying a glass siphon tube (for deliveringthe solution to a buret) and a soda-lime or
23、 soda-asbestos guardtube. Standardize the 0.020N NaOH solution against theNational Institute of Standards and Technology StandardSample No. 84h of acid potassium phthalate. Transfer 0.2000 gof the phthalate to a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask and dissolve inabout 75 mL of CO2-free water. Add five drops of
24、phenol-phthalein indicator solution and titrate with the NaOH solutionto the first persistent pink color. Adjust the standard NaOHsolution to 0.020N strength.6.4.1 Calculate the normality N of the NaOH solution asfollows:N 5 0.9798/mL of NaOH (1)6.5 High-Purity WaterThis water shall be free of heavy
25、metals, particularly copper, as shown by a dithizone test andhave a conductivity (consult Test Methods D1125) not exceed-ing 0.15 S/cm.6.5.1 The source water shall be distilled, then passedthrough a deionizer cartridge packed with a mixed bed ofnuclear-grade resin, then through a cellulose ester mem
26、branehaving openings not exceeding 0.45 m. Pass the purifiedwater through an in-line conductivity cell to verify its purity.After flushing discharge lines, suitable water should be dis-pensed directly into the test vessels.NOTE 1Copper tubing should not be used in the discharge lines.TFE-fluorocarbo
27、n or pure tin are suitable.NOTE 2Reference should be made to Specification D1193. Type Ireagent water as defined therein complies with the present 6.5.Intheinterest of practicality and demonstrated sufficiency, 6.5 allows thefollowing deviations from Type I reagent water specifications.(1) Source wa
28、ter is unspecified whereas Type I specifies source waterhaving a maximum conductivity of 20 S/cm at 25C.(2) The final step is filtration through a membrane having openings notexceeding 0.45 m. Type I directs filtration through a 0.2-m membrane.(3) The conductivity immediately before dispensing is re
29、quired not toexceed 0.15 S/cm at 25C whereas Type I is limited to 0.06 S/cm at25C.The distillation step is essential to minimize or avoid cultivation ofmicroorganisms in the ion-exchange bed and consequent clogging of themembrane filter. When preceded by distillation, the ion-exchange bedshould have
30、 a long life, but as the conductivity begins to rise toward thelimit it should be replaced by a new bed.Distillation from phosphoric acid with a conductivity of the productbetween 0.5 and 1.0 S/cm was specified as water for extraction in TestMethods C225. Water prepared as described herein gave resu
31、lts averagingabout 8 % higher than water prepared by distillation from phosphoric acidwhen Test Method B-W was applied to soda-lime and borosilicate glassbottles in seven laboratories. The trend to slightly greater extraction maybe associated with the higher average purity of this water. The limit o
32、nconductivity of 0.15 S/cm for water prepared by this means was setbecause water of less conductivity is readily obtained and when 0.15S/cm is exceeded, the conductivity rises rapidly on further use of thesystem.6.6 Sulfuric Acid, Standard (0.020N) containing approxi-mately 0.58 mL of concentrated s

Dilute200 mL of the 0.1N H2SO4to 1 L and standardize against0.020N NaOH solution, using methyl red indicator solution.Finally, adjust the standard H2SO4to 0.020N

Otherwise, use 0.0002N H2SO4as the attackingmedium.8.2 Cover each container individually with a chemical-resistant glass beaker or cap that has been digested with waterfor at least 2

Allow steam to issue from the ventfor 10 min; then close the vent cock and increase thetemperature at the rate of 1C/min to 121C taking 19 to 23min. Maintain the temperature at 121 6 0.5C (250 6 0.9F)for 1 h, counting from the t
