Summary of Test Method3.1 The samp
5、le is dissolved in a mixture consisting of 50volume % methyl ethyl ketone and 50 volume % toluene. Thesolution is cooled to 32C (25F) to precipitate the wax,then filtered. The solvent extractables content is determined byevaporating the solvent from the filtrate and weighing theresidue.4. Significan
6、ce and Use4.1 The solvent extractables in a wax may have significanteffects on several of its properties such as strength, hardness,flexibility, scuff resistance, coefficient of friction, coefficient ofexpansion, melting point, and staining characteristics. Whetherthese effects are desirable or unde
7、sirable depends on theintended use of the wax.5. Apparatus5.1 Filter Stick and Assembly, consisting of a 10-mmdiameter sintered glass filter stick of 10 to 15 m maximumpore diameter as determined by the method in Appendix X1,provided with an air pressure inlet tube and delivery nozzle. Itis provided
8、 with a ground-glass joint to fit a 25 by 170-mm testtube. The dimensions for a suitable filtration assembly areshown in Fig. 1.NOTE 1A metallic filter stick may be employed if desired. A filterstick3made of stainless steel and having a 12.7-mm (0.50-in.) disk of 10to 15 nm maximum pore diameter, as

The metallic apparatus is inserted intoa 25 by 150-mm test tube and held in place by means of a cork.5.2 Cooling Bath, consisting of an insulated box with 30 65-mm (1.2 6 0.2-in.) holes in the center to accommodate anydesired number

Sample7.1 Obtain a representative portion by melting the entiresample and stirring thoroughly. This is necessary because theextractables may not be distr
29、ibuted uniformly throughout thesolidified sample.8. Procedure8.1 Melt a representative portion of the sample, using awater bath or oven maintained at 70 to 100C (158 to 212F).As soon as the wax is completely melted, thoroughly mix.Preheat the pipet or equivalent measuring device in order toprevent t
30、he solidification of wax in the tip, and withdraw aportion of the sample as soon as possible after the wax hasmelted. The mass of wax transferred to the test tube must be1.00 6 0.05 g.Allow the test tube to cool, and weigh to at leastthe nearest 1 mg.NOTE 3The weight of a test tube which is cleaned
31、by means ofsolvent will not vary to a significant extent. Therefore, a tare weight maybe obtained and used repeatedly.8.2 Pipet 15 mLof the solvent mixture into the test tube andplace the latter just up to the level of its contents in a hot wateror steam bath. Heat the solvent-wax mixture, stirring
32、up anddown with the wire stirrer, until a homogeneous solution isobtained. Exercise care to avoid loss of solvent by prolongedboiling.NOTE 4Very high-melting wax samples may not form clear solutions.Stir until the undissolved material is well dispersed as a fine cloud.8.2.1 Plunge the test tube into
33、 an 800-mL beaker of icewater and continue to stir until the contents are cold. Removethe stirrer. Remove the test tube from the ice bath, wipe dry onthe outside with a cloth, and weigh to at least the nearest 0.1 g.NOTE 5During this operation the loss of solvent through vaporizationshould be less t
34、han 1 %. The weight of the solvent is, therefore, practicallya constant, and after a few samples are weighed, this weight can be usedas a constant factor.8.3 Place the test tube containing the wax-solvent slurry inthe cooling bath, which is maintained at 34.5 6 1.0C (30.0All dimensions are in millim
35、etres (inches).FIG. 2 Cooling BathD3235 06 (2011)36 2.0F). During this chilling operation, stir the contents of thetube by means of a temperature measurement device placed inthe tube. It is important that stirring by means of the tempera-ture measurement device be almost continuous, in order tomaint
36、ain a slurry of uniform consistency as the wax precipi-tates. Do not allow the wax to set up on the walls of the coolingvessel nor permit any lumps of wax crystals to form. Continuestirring until the temperature reaches 31.7 6 0.3C (25.0 60.5F).8.4 Remove the temperature measurement device from thet
37、ube and allow it to drain momentarily into the tube, thenimmediately immerse in the mixture the clean, dry filter stick,which has previously been cooled by placing it in a test tubeand holding at 34.5 6 1.0C (30.0 6 2.0F) in the coolingbath for a minimum of 10 min. Seat the ground-glass joint ofthe
38、filter so as to make an airtight seal. Place an unstopperedweighing bottle, previously weighed together with the glassstopper to the nearest 0.1 mg, under the delivery nozzle of thefiltration assembly.NOTE 6Take every precaution to ensure the accuracy of the weight ofthe stoppered weighing bottle. P
39、rior to determining this weight, rinse theclean, dry weighing bottle and stopper with the solvent mixture describedin 6.3, wipe dry on the outside with a cloth, and place in the evaporationassembly to dry for about 5 min. Then remove the weighing bottle andstopper, place near the balance, and allow
40、to stand for 10 min prior toweighing. Stopper the bottle during this cooling period. Once theweighing bottle and stopper have been dried in the evaporation assembly,lift only with forceps. Take care to remove and replace the glass stopperwith a light touch.8.5 Apply air pressure to the filtration as
41、sembly and imme-diately collect about 4 mL of filtrate in the weighing bottle.Release the air pressure to permit the liquid to drain backslowly from the delivery nozzle. Remove the weighing bottleimmediately, and stopper and weigh to at least the nearest 10mg without waiting for it to come to room t
42、emperature.Unstopper the weighing bottle and place it under one of the jetsin the evaporation assembly maintained at 35 6 1C (95 62F), with the air jet centered inside the neck, and the tip 15 65 mm above the surface of the liquid. After the solvent hasevaporated, which usually takes less than 30 mi
43、n, remove thebottle, stopper, and place near the balance. Allow to stand for10 min and weigh to the nearest 0.1 mg. Repeat the evaporationprocedure, using 5 min evaporation periods, until the lossbetween successive weighings is not over 0.2 mg.9. Calculation9.1 Calculate the amount of extractables i
