Determination of Active Ingredient9.1 Powders and Solid SamplesWeigh, to the nearest 0.1mg, three 0.9 to 1.1-g portions of a representative sample.Dissolve each portion of the sample in water (Note 3) anddilute to 500 mL with water at ro
22、om temperature in avolumetric flask. Mix well. Treat each portion of the samplesolution in accordance with 9.3 and 9.4.NOTE 3It is desirable for the sample to be completely dissolved. Itmay be dissolved as follows:(1) Transfer the weighed sample to the volumetric flask and dilute tovolume with water
23、 at room temperature. Carefully insert a TFE-fluorocarbon-covered stirring magnet and agitate vigorously on a mag-netic stirrer for 15 to 20 min. Carefully invert the flask several times toensure thorough mixing. If insoluble matter remains, allow the flask tostand for several hours, or preferably o
24、vernight. Then continue inaccordance with 9.3 by pipetting the 5-mL aliquot from the top of thesupernatant solution.(2) Transfer the weighed sample to a 600-mL beaker. Add 200 mL ofwater and place on a steam bath or hot plate for about 10 min withoccasional stirring. Cool to room temperature and dil
25、ute to volume. A finestream of water or a few drops of alcohol will aid in breaking any foampersisting in the neck of the volumetric flask. As in (1), allow anyinsoluble matter to settle before continuing in accordance with 9.3 and 9.4.9.2 Slurry SampleWeigh, to the nearest 1 mg, threeapproximately
26、20-g portions of a representative sample. Add50 mL of alcohol and mix to disperse the sample. Dissolveeach portion of the sample in water (Note 3) and dilute to 1000mL with water at room temperature, employing a 1000-mLvolumetric flask. Mix well. Pipet a 50-mL aliquot of eachsolution into a 500-mL v
27、olumetric flask, dilute to volume withwater at room temperature, and mix well. Treat each of thethree sample solutions as directed in 9.3 and 9.4.9.3 Pipet a 5-mL aliquot of the solution from 9.1 or 9.2 intoa 250-mL volumetric flask and dilute to volume with water atroom temperature. Mix well.9.4 Us
28、ing 1-cm cells in the spectrophotometer, measure theabsorbance at 224 and 270 nm versus a water blank. Withinstruments having scanning capability, scan from 300 down to210 nm. This facilitates obtaining the absorbance at the peakmaximum near 224 nm. (Caution, Note 4. See also Note 5 andNote 6).NOTE
29、4Caution: There is danger of contamination of the samplewith detergent dust in the production laboratory air; therefore, thesemeasurements must be made immediately after the procedure described in9.3. Contamination is evident when a high reading (above 0.1 absorbance)at 270 nm is obtained. Discard s
30、uch contaminated samples and start witha new aliquot (9.3, Note 5 and Note 6).NOTE 5The observed absorbance readings should be between 0.2 and0.9; otherwise weigh a new sample or take a new or different aliquot anddilute to a known volume. (A calibration curve in this absorbance rangemust be made wi
31、th a sample of the sodium alkylbenzene sulfonate beingquantitatively measured. See also Note 7.)NOTE 6When analyzing samples of doubtful origin, the absorptionmaximum at 224 nm should be checked. Measure the absorbance at 220,224, 228, and 270 nm. The absorbance at 224 nm should be greater thanthe a
32、bsorbance at either 220 nm or 228 nm. If the 224-nm absorption is notthe maximum of all the absorbance readings, alkylbenzene sulfonate is notresponsible for the observed absorption and the spectrophotometricmethod is invalid.10.
