Precision and Bias7.1 No st

15、atement on bias can be made as no referencematerial is available as a standard.ASH8. Significance and Use8.1 Ash content gives an estimate of the inorganic contentof cellulose ester samples. The presence of high levels ofinorganic content (ash) can be detrimental to the melt stabilityand optical cla

Procedure9.1 Dry the sample for2hat1056 3C and weigh 10 to 50g, to the nearest 0.01 to 0.1 g, depending on its ash content andthe accuracy desired. An air-dried sample may be u

17、sed andcalculated to dry weight using the value for moisture deter-mined as in Sections 5 and 6. Burn directly over a flame in a100-mL tared platinum crucible that has been heated toconstant weight and weighed to the nearest 0.1 mg. Add thesample in portions if more than 10 g is taken. The samplesho

18、uld burn gently and the portions should be added as theflame subsides. Continue heating with a burner only as long asthe residue burns with a flame. Transfer the crucible to a mufflefurnace and heat at 550 to 600C for 3 h, or longer if required,to burn all the carbon. Allow the crucible to cool and

19、thentransfer it, while still warm, to a desiccator. When the cruciblehas cooled to room temperature, weigh accurately to thenearest 0.1 mg.10.

20、 on bias can be made as no referencematerial is available as a standard.FREE ACIDITY12. Significance and Use12.1 Free Acidity is a measure of unesterified organic acidin the ester.

25、ETIC ACID CONTENT17. Scope17.1 Two test methods are described for determining thecombined acetyl or acetic acid content. The first, described inSections 19 to 22, is more precise, but less widely applicable,than the method described in Sections 24 to 26.18. Significance and Use18.1 Acetyl or acetic

26、acid content is a measure of theamount of acetic acid esterified onto the cellulose backbone ofthe polymer. The amount of substitution of acetate ester has avery strong effect on the polymers solubility and physicalproperties.Test Method ASolution Method19. Apparatus19.1 Weighing Bottle, glass-stopp

Each compartment shall have the correct dimensions tocontain one weighing bottle. The entire tray shall fit inside adesiccator

28、and should have a basket-type handle to facilitatethe introduction and removal of the tray (convenient but notessential).19.3 Buret, automatic zero, 35-mL, 25-mL bulb, stemgraduated from 25 to 35 mL in 0.05-ml increments; or pipet,automatic zero, 30-mL, for 1.0 N NaOH solution.D 871 96 (2004)219.4 B

30、rring Bars, stainless steel Type 416, length 50 mm,diameter 5 to 6 mm, or equivalent, dimensions not critical.20. Reagents20.1 AcetoneAdd one 30-mL portion of 1.0 N NaOHsolution to a mixture of 150 mL acetone and 100 mL hot water,allow to stand with frequent swirling for 30 min, and titratewith 1.0

31、N H2SO4. Add another 30-mL portion of 1.0 N NaOHsolution to 100 mL of hot water, allow to stand for 30 min, andtitrate. The difference between the two titrations shall notexceed 0.05 mL.20.2 Dimethyl Sulfoxide.20.3 Pyridine.20.4 Sodium Hydroxide Solution (40 g/L)Dissolve 40 g ofsodium hydroxide (NaO

32、H) in water and dilute to 1 L.20.5 Sodium Hydroxide, Standard Solution (0.1 N)Prepare and standardize a 0.1 N solution of NaOH.20.6 Sulfuric Acid (1.0 N)Prepare and standardize a 1.0N solution of sulfuric acid (H2SO4).20.7 Phenolphthalein Indicator Solution (1 g/100 mL)Dissolve1gofphenolphthalein in

33、 100 ml of ethyl alcohol(95 %).21. Procedure21.1 Dry 1.9 6 0.05 g of the ground well-mixed sample ina weighing bottle for2hat1056 3C and weigh the driedsample by difference to the nearest 1 mg into a 500-mLwide-mouth Erlenmeyer flask. Prepare a blank by dryingapproximately 3.8 g of potassium acid ph

34、thalate and weighingit by difference into a flask as described. Carry the blankthrough the entire procedure.NOTE 1Potassium acid phthalate is used so that the concentration ofthe NaOH in contact with the solvent in the blank will be approximatelythe same as that in contact with the sample and so tha

35、t the titration of theblank will be approximately the same as the titration of the sample, thusavoiding errors caused by using a different buret for the titration of theblank and the sample or by refilling the 15-mL buret. If desired, however,the potassium acid phthalate may be omitted.21.2 If the a

36、cetyl content is 32 to 41 % or the acetic acidcontent is 45 to 57 %, put the sample into solution as follows:Add 150 mL of acetone and 5 to 10 mL of water and swirl tomix. Stopper the flask and allow it to stand with occasionalswirling until solution is complete. Solution may be hastenedby magnetic

37、stirring or by any suitable mechanical shaking thatwill provide a gentle rocking type of agitation to avoidsplashing the solution on the stopper. It is essential thatcomplete solution be effected. Proceed in accordance with21.4.21.3 If the acetyl content is 41 to 44.8 % or the acetic acidcontent is

38、57 to 62.5 %, dissolve the sample by either of thefollowing two methods:21.3.1 Gently rotate the flask by hand to distribute andspread the sample in a thin layer over the bottom of the flask.Add 70 mL of acetone to the flask and swirl gently until thesample particles are completely wetted and evenly

39、 dispersed.Stopper the flask and allow it to stand undisturbed for 10 min.Carefully add 30 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide from a graduate tothe flask, pouring the solvent down the sides of the flask towash down any sample particles clinging to the side. Stopperthe flask and allow it to stand with occasion

40、al swirling untilsolution is complete. Magnetic stirring or gentle mechanicalagitation that will not splash the solution is recommended.When solution appears to be complete, add 50 mL of acetoneand swirl or stir for 5 min. Proceed in accordance with 21.4.21.3.2 Dimethyl sulfoxide is the preferred so

41、lvent, but if itis not available, spread the sample in a thin layer over thebottom of the flask, add 15 mL of acetone, swirl to wet theparticles with acetone, stopper the flask, and allow the mixtureto stand undisturbed for 20 min. Add 75 mL of pyridinewithout shaking or swirling, and allow to stand

42、 for 10 min.Heat the solution just to boiling and swirl or stir for 5 min.Again heat to boiling and swirl or stir for 10 min. Continue toheat and stir until the mixture is homogeneous and all large gelmasses are broken down into individual highly swollen par-ticles. When these highly swollen gel par

43、ticles are welldispersed and are not fused together in large gel masses, nofurther heating is necessary. Cool the flask, add 30 mL ofacetone, and swirl or stir for 5 min. Proceed in accordance with21.4.21.4 Add 30 mL of NaOH solution (40 g/L) with constantswirling or stirring to the solution of the

44、sample and also to theblank. Use of a magnetic stirrer is recommended (Note 2). It isabsolutely necessary that a finely divided precipitate of regen-erated cellulose, free from lumps, be obtained. Stopper theflask and let the mixture stand with occasional swirling, or stiron the magnetic stirring un

45、it. Allow 30 min for saponificationof lower acetyl samples, 2 h for high acetyl samples whendimethyl sulfoxide is the solvent, and 3 h when pyridine is thesolvent. At the end of the saponification period, add 100 mL ofhot water, washing down the sides of the flask, and stir for 1 or2 min. Add 4 or 5

46、 drops of phenolphthalein indicator solutionand titrate the excess NaOH solution with 1.0 N H2SO4(Note3). Titrate rapidly with constant swirling or stirring ring untilthe end point is reached; then add an excess of 0.2 or 0.3 mLof H2SO4. Allow the mixture to stand with occasional stirringor preferab

47、ly stir on the magnetic stirrer for at least 10 min.Then add 3 drops of phenolphthalein indicator solution to eachflask and titrate the small excess of acid with 0.1 N NaOHsolution to a persistent phenolphthalein end point. Take ex-treme care to locate this end point; after the sample is titratedto

48、a faint pink end point, swirl the mixture vigorously or placeit for a moment on the magnetic stirrer. If the end point fadesbecause of acid soaking from the cellulose, continue theaddition of 0.1 N NaOH solution until a faint persistent endpoint remains after vigorous swirling or stirring. Titrate t

49、heblank in the same manner as the sample.NOTE 2While the amount of magnetic stirring is somewhat optional,such stirring during the entire period of the determination is stronglyD 871 96 (2004)3recommended. Solution is more rapid, titrations are more rapid, and theend point can be approached directly and without a back titration.NOTE 3It is important to correct all 1.0 N H2SO4buret readings fortemperature and buret corrections.22.
