Summary of Test Method4.1 The sample is diluted with solvent and charged to aglass percolation column containing clay in the upper sectionand silica gel plus clay in the lower section. n-pentane is thencharged to the double column until

12、 a definite quantity ofeffluent has been collected. The upper (clay) section is removedfrom the lower section and washed further with n-pentane. Atoluene-acetone mixture 50 to 50 by volume is then charged tothe clay section for desorption and a specified volume ofeffluent collected. The lower (gel)

13、column may be desorbed byrecirculation of toluene.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetroleum Products and Lubricants and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeD02.04.0C on Liquid Chromatography.Current edition approved May 10, 2003.

16、d theresidues are weighed and calculated as saturate and polarcompounds contents. Aromatics may be calculated by differ-ence, or measured following evaporation of the toluene usedfor desorption of the gel column.4.3 When the sample contains more than 0.1 mass % ofn-pentane insolubles, this test meth

17、od cannot be used directly.The insoluble matter must be removed from the sample prior tocharging to the column. A method for this removal is given asan appendix.4.4 Alternative methods are provided (1) for recovery ofaromatics from the gel column, and (2) for analysis of oil withhigh-polar content.5

18、. Significance and Use5.1 The composition of the oil included in rubber com-pounds has a large effect on the characteristics and uses of thecompounds. The determination of the saturates, aromatics, andpolar compounds is a key analysis of this composition.5.2 The determination of the saturates, aroma

19、tics, and polarcompounds and further analysis of the fractions produced isoften used as a research method to aid understanding of oileffects in rubber and other uses.6.

34、d elsewhere, it is very important that only the reagentsand materials described in this section be used.8. Procedure8.1 Fractionation:8.1.1 Prepare the adsorption column (Fig. 2) by placing 100g of clay adsorbent in the upper section of the column and 200g of silica gel plus 50 g of clay on top of t

35、he gel in the lowersection (Note 5). Place a piece of glass wool (of about 25-mmloose thickness) over the top surface of the clay in the uppercolumn to prevent agitation of the clay while charging theeluent solvents. Join the columns (clay over gel) after lubri-cating the joint with hydrocarbon-inso

A minimum of ten taps with a soft rubber hammer atdifferent points up and down and 25 taps on top of each columnshould be employed to achieve constant level. A suitablerubber hammer may be assembled by fa

The sample shouldnot display precipi

40、tate or flocculate at this point. If a precipitateis present asphaltenes may be removed by the procedure ofAppendix X1, however, the precision statement no longerapplies. It is important that the polar content result obtained benot greater than that for the sample size as specified above,since the c

41、apacity of the clay for retaining polar constituentsbecomes limited at these concentrations. If results exceed thisspecification, repeat the test using a smaller sample. Partition-ing between aromatics and polar compounds is affected bysample size. Results using different sample size may not beequiv

42、alent.NOTE 3For viscous oils, dilutions of the sample with 25 mL ofcyclohexane is more convenient and does not affect the results. Cyclo-hexane used in this manner will not detect small quantities of asphaltenes,however.8.1.4 Add 25 mL of n-pentane to the top of the clay portionof the assembled colu

43、mn and allow to percolate into the clay.As soon as nearly all of the n-pentane has entered the clay,charge to the column the diluted sample of 8.1.3. Wash thesample beaker (or flask) with n-pentane and add the washingsto the column. After nearly all of this material has entered theclay, wash the wal

44、ls of the column above the clay free ofsample with n-pentane. The sample and eluent solvent can beadded to the column through a 65-mm diameter, wide-stemfunnel (the funnel can be left on top of the column). At no timeduring the run should air be allowed to enter the clay bed.8.1.5 When nearly all of

45、 the washings have entered the clay,charge n-pentane to the column and maintain a head level wellabove the clay beds (Note 4) to wash the saturate portion of thesample from the adsorbents. Recover 280 6 10 mL of the firstn-pentane effluent from the column in a graduated, 500-mLwide-mouth conical fla

46、sk.NOTE 4Columns may be briefly separated, if necessary, to give asolvent head 5- to 10-mm deep in the second (lower) column. Loss of thehead will give channeling in the lower column, with inaccurate results.NOTE 5With long use, the frits in the absorption columns becomeprogressively less porous. If

47、 the time for percolation doubles over that fora new column, the slow columns are to be discarded.NOTE 6If only saturates are to be determined, proceed to 8.3 andsubsequent calculation of saturates.8.1.6 Disconnect the two sections. Allow the lower sectionto drain into a receiver. Continue washing t

48、he upper claysection with n-pentane. Maintain a moderate liquid head levelabove the clay during this wash and adjust n-pentane additionsso that the level is about 25 mm when 150 mL have beencollected in the receiver. Discontinue additions at this point andallow the liquid to essentially drain from t

49、he column. Thequantity in the receiver should then be about 200 mL. Then-pentane from this step and from the draining of the lowercolumn should be discarded if aromatics are to be determinedby difference. This n-pentane should be added to the aromaticssolution from the gel column during solvent evaporation (8.3)if aromatics are to be recovered.NOTE 7This extra n-pentane washing of the clay section is necessaryin order to ensure complete removal of aromatics from the clay.8.1.7 After n-pentane effluent has essentially drained fromthe column, charge a 50 to
