Summary of Test Method3.1 An accurately weighed sample of dried activated carbonis placed in a controlled-temperature muffle furnace for aperiod of several hours. When constan

6、t weight has beenachieved (60.5 mg), the crucible is cooled to ambient tem-perature in a desiccator and reweighed. The weight of the ashedcarbon is expressed as a percentage of the weight of theoriginal carbon sample.4. Significance and Use4.1 In specific end uses, the amount and composition of thea

7、sh may influence the capabilities and certain desired proper-ties of activated carbon.4.2 Other automated methods for determination of ashcontent, such as combusting the carbon in a thermogravimetricanalyzer (TGA) in flowing air or oxygen, can be used in placeof this test method. A suitable method i

8、s described in TestMethod D7582. For determination of the ash content ofactivated carbon, follow the procedure in 13.5.3 of TestMethod D7582 with the exception that the furnace temperaturein 13.4.3 shall be 650 625C. The muffle furnace method shallbe considered the reference test method.5. Apparatus

9、5.1 Muffle Furnace, having air circulation, capable of tem-perature regulation of 625C at 650C.5.2 High-Temperature Crucible, high-form.5.3 Analytical Balance, having a sensitivity of 0.1 mg.5.4 Desiccator.5.5 Oven, forced-air circulation, capable of temperatureregulation between 145 and 155C.6.

10、cedure6.1 Ignite the crucible in the muffle furnace at 650 6 25Cfor 1 h. Place the crucible in the desiccator. Cool to roomtemperature and weigh to the nearest 0.1 mg.6.2 Dry an adequate sample of activated carbon to constantweight (60.5 mg) at 150 65C (3 h is usually sufficient).NOTE 1Some carbons

11、can ignite spontaneously at 150C. In this case,moist carbon should be used with a correction for moisture (in accordancewith Methods D2867) applied in the calculations. In this case, the ashingshould be started in a cold muffle furnace.6.3 Weigh out to the nearest 0.1 mg sufficient dried acti-vated

12、carbon, so that the estimated amount of ash will be 0.1 g,into the ignited crucible and place the crucible in the furnace at650 6 25C. Ashing will require from 3 to 16 h, depending onthe size and type of activated carbon.Ashing can be consideredcomplete when constant weight (60.5 mg) is achieved.6.4

13、 Place the crucible in the desiccator and allow to cool toroom temperature. After the sample has cooled in the desicca-tor, admit air slowly to avoid loss of ash from the crucible.Weigh to the nearest 0.1 mg.7.
