United States15.2 This test method was originally developed for the determination of the density of the ASTM Knock Test Reference Fuelsn-heptane and isooctane, with an accuracy of 0.00003 g/mL. Although it is no lon
16、ger employed extensively for this purpose, thistest method is useful whenever accurate densities of pure hydrocarbons or petroleum fractions with boiling points between 9090 Cand 110C110 C are required.6. Apparatus6.1 Pycnometer, Bingham-type,3 conforming to the dimensions given in Fig. 1, construct

Whichever means are available, it must be realized that for mosthydrocarbons the density coefficient is about 0.0008 units/C, and therefore an error of 60.013C60.013 C would cause an errorof 60.00001 in density.6.4 Hypodermic Syringe, 30-mL30

Reagents and Materials7.1 Acetone(WarningExtremely flammable. Use adeq

Avoid buildup of vapors and remove all sources of ignition, especiallynon-explosion proof electrical apparatus.)7.3 Chromic Acid (Potassium Dichromate/Conc. Sulfuric Acid)(WarningCauses severe burns. A recognized carcinogen.Do not get in
27、eyes, or on skin or clothing.)8. Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Thoroughly clean the pycnometer with hot chromic acid cleaning solution by means of the assembly shown in Fig. 4.Chromic acid solution (WarningSee 7.3) is the most effective cleaning agent. However, surfactant cleaning fluids have also bee
28、nused successfully. Mount the apparatus firmly and connect the trap to the vacuum. Warm the necessary amount of cleaning acidin the beaker, place the pycnometer on the ground joint, and evacuate by opening the stopcock to vacuum. Fill the pycnometer withacid by turning the stopcock, repeat several t
29、imes or remove the filled pycnometer, and allow it to stand for several hours at 50to 60C. 50 C to 60 C. Remove the acid from the pycnometer by evacuation, empty the acid from the trap, and flush thepycnometer with water. Cleaning should be made in this manner whenever the pycnometer is to be calibr
30、ated or whenever liquidfails to drain cleanly from the walls of the pycnometer or its capillary. Ordinarily, the pycnometer may be cleaned betweendeterminations by washing with a suitable solvent, rinsing with pure, dry acetone, followed by isopentane, and vacuum drying.8.2 Transfer the pycnometer t
31、o the cleaner assembly shown in Fig. 3, with vacuum line and trap attached to the side tube asindicated. Place the pycnometer on the cleaner with the upper hypodermic needle extending upward into the pycnometer, and pressthe edge of the ground joint on the rubber stopper until the vacuum holds it in
32、 place. Draw out all the liquid or sample. Immersethe lower end of the hypodermic tube in a suitable solvent and draw 20 to 25 mL to 25 mL through the pycnometer. Leaving thepycnometer in place, draw air through it until it is dry. Clean the hypodermic syringe with the same apparatus.9. Calibration
33、of Pycnometer9.1 Proceeding as directed in Section 10, determine the weight of freshly-boiled and cooled distilled water (distilled fromalkaline permanganate through a tin condenser) held by the pycnometer when equilibrated to volume at the bath temperature tobe used in the determination. Repeat unt
34、il at least three values agree to 60.2 mg.10. Procedure10.1 Using another 25-mL25 mL pycnometer as a tare (Note 1), weigh the clean, dry pycnometer to 0.1 mg and record theweight.NOTE 1It is convenient to use the lightest of a set of pycnometers as a tare. For best results the treatment and environm
35、ent of both pycnometer andtare should be identical for some time prior to weighing.10.2 Cool the sample to 5 to 10C 5 C to 10 C below the test temperature, and fill the clean 30-mL30 mLhypodermic syringe.Transfer the sample to the pycnometer through the filling needle; avoid trapping air bubbles (Wa

If any are present, draw them into the syringe where possible. Also remove with the syringe ordraw-off needle any liqui

Dry the remainder with a cotton fiberpipe cleaner or cotton swab which has been dampened slightly with acetone.FIG. 4 All-Glass Pycnometer Cleaner Assembly for Use with Hot Chromic Acid Cleaning SolutionD1217 154NOTE 2For work of h
38、ighest accuracy on pure compounds, dissolved air may be removed from the sample by repeated freezing and remelting of thesample under vacuum in the pycnometer.10.3 Close the pycnometer with the glass stopper and immerse it to a point above the calibration mark in the constant-temperature bath adjust
39、ed to a constancy of 60.01C60.01 C at the desired temperature. Periodically, or before the liquidexpands into the overflow chamber, remove the stopper, raise the pycnometer sufficiently to expose the calibration mark to view,and readjust the liquid level to the mark by withdrawing liquid through the
40、 steel draw-off needle until expansion has stopped,indicating that the liquid has reached the temperature of the thermostat. Do not allow the liquid to expand more than 10 mm abovethe calibration mark at any time, to minimize errors caused by faulty drainage. Allow the contents to equilibrate an add
41、itional 10min and draw the level down exactly to the calibration line, avoiding parallax and using a magnifier, if necessary, to obtain goodvisibility. Remove any liquid adhering to the walls above the calibration mark, with the draw-off needle or pipe cleaner, dependingupon the volatility of the sa
42、mple. Portions in the overflow bulb may be removed with a cotton swab moistened with acetone.10.4 Replace the glass stopper, remove the pycnometer from the bath, wash the outside surface with acetone, and dry thoroughlywith a chemically clean, lint-free, slightly damp cloth. Place the pycnometer in
43、or near the balance case for 20 min 20 min andweigh to the nearest 0.1 mg. 0.1 mg. In atmospheres of low humidity (60 % or lower), drying the pycnometer by rubbing with adry cotton cloth will induce static charges equivalent to a loss of about 1 mg in the weight of the pycnometer. This charge needno
44、t be completely dissipated in less than 30 min. 30 min. The use of about 0.1-mg 0.1 mg radium bromide- or polonium-coatedfoil in the balance case, or maintaining the relative humidity at 60 % or higher, aids in reducing weighing difficulties due to staticcharges.10.5 Record temperature of the balanc

(1)where:Ws = weight in air of sample contained in the pycnometer at the test temperature, g,Ww = weight in air of the water
46、 contained in the pycnometer at the calibration temperature, g,dw = density of water at the calibration temperature, as obtained from Table 1,da = density of air in balance case at the time of weighing, as calculated from 10.3,dwt = density of weights used in weighing the sample and water (brass = 1
47、0.4 g/mL, stainless steel = 7.75 g/mL), anddwt = density of weights used in weighing the sample and water (brass = 10.4 g/mL, stainless steel = 7.75 gmL), andds = approximate density of sample orWs3d!/Ww (2)11.2 The equation assumes that the weighings of the pycnometer empty and filled are made in s
48、uch a short time interval thatthe air density has not changed. If significant change should occur, the calculated apparent weight of the sample, Ws, in thisequation, must be corrected for the difference in air buoyancy exerted on the pycnometer as follows:Ws5W2PS2Wp11da/2.2! (3)2da/dwt!)/11da2/2.2!2
49、da2/dwt!where:W2PS = weight of pycnometer and contained sample under second or final air density,WP = weight of pycnometer in air of first density,da = density of air when weighing empty pycnometer,da 2 = density of air when weighing filled pycnometer,dwt = density of weights, and2.2 = borosilicate glass.Likewise, if the pycnometer, empty and filled with water for calibration, is weighed under different air densities a similarcorrection for different air buoyancies shall be applied.11.3 Calculate the relati
