7、 AtomicAbsorption Spectroscopy43. Summary of Test Method3.1 The gasoline is treated with iodine and tetraethyl am-monium chloride in chloroform and subjected to ultravioletlight. The lead alkyls form water-soluble lead alkyl iodides,which are removed from the gasoline by shaking it with anaqueous am

8、monium nitrate solution. The aqueous extract isfiltered into a solution of 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol disodiumsalt (PAR) and ammonium hydroxide. The lead is determinedby measuring its PAR complex colorimetrically at 490 nmusing a previously prepared calibration curve.4. Significance and Use4.1 This

9、 test is used to determine trace quantities of lead inunleaded gasoline. Unwarranted amounts of lead may causedeposits in automotive pollution control equipment and poi-soning of catalytic mufflers.5. Interferences5.1 PAR also reacts with many other metals forming highlycolored complexes. However, n

10、one of these are normally foundpresent in a soluble form in gasoline. The following metalswere found to form colors with PAR and if present mayinterfere to give high results: Fe II, Fe III, Co II, Ni II, Cu II,Zn II, Cd II, Mn II, Sn II, V IV, Pb II, U VI, Ti IV, and the rareearths.6.

29、d.7.11 Tetraethylammonium Chloride Monohydrate (TEAC).7.12 Quality Control (QC) Sample(s), preferably areportions of one or more gasoline materials or product standardsof known lead content that were not used in the generation ofthe instrument calibration curve. These (QC) samples are to beused to c

30、heck the validity of the testing process as described inSection 10. An ample supply of QC sample material shall beavailable for the intended period of use, and must be homoge-neous and stable under the anticipated storage conditions.8. Calibration8.1 Prepare a calibration curve as follows, using at

31、least fourgasoline standards of known lead content that cover the rangefrom 0.01 to 0.10 g Pb/gal (2.64 to 26.4 mg Pb/L).8.1.1 Rinse the 2-mL graduated pipet three times with thegasoline sample. Add 2.0 mL of the sample to a 1-oz glass vial.Add 2.0 mL of iodine/TEAC/CHCl3solution (Reagent A) fromano

32、ther pipet, to the vial containing the gasoline. Tightly capthe vial.8.1.2 Place the vial on the ultraviolet light and set the timerto give the sample a 3-min exposure.8.1.2.1 (WarningUltraviolet light can be harmful to theeyes. A protective shield has been provided in the prototype kit.DO NOT remov

33、e it or otherwise defeat its purpose. DO NOTstare at the light.)8.1.3 After exposure, remove and uncap the vial. Measure10.0 mL of ammonium nitrate solution (Reagent B) into the10-mL graduated cylinder. Add this to the vial containing thesample. Recap and shake the vial vigorously for 1 min. (Thetim

34、er in the kit may be used.)8.1.4 Place a clean 18-mm test tube in the aluminummeasuring block. Add 5.0 mL of PAR solution (Reagent C) tothe test tube using the mark on the block such that the upperlevel of liquid in the tube is equal to the mark on the block.Place the plastic funnel in the test tube

35、. Fold a piece of filterpaper and place in the funnel.8.1.5 When the two layers of liquid in the vial haveseparated (8.1.3), pour the entire contents of the vial inside thefilter paper. The aqueous layer will filter into the test tube; thegasoline/CHCl3layer will remain in the filter paper. Tap thef

36、unnel to add any remaining drops of aqueous solution to thetest tube. Remove the funnel and discard its contents. Swirl thetest tube gently using a wrist action to obtain a uniform color.NOTE 6The lead-PAR complex formed in 8.1.5 must be measuredwithin 10 min after starting 8.1.5.NOTE 7A few drops o

37、f the organic layer may come through the filterpaper. This will not alter the results and can therefore be tolerated.However, if more than 10 drops do come through, refilter the aqueouslayer through a fresh filter paper into a clean empty test tube.NOTE 8Swirling may cause air bubbles to be trapped

38、in the liquid.Wait for these to settle before continuing. Wipe the test tube off with aclean towel to remove any fingerprints that may be present on the surfaceof the tube.8.2 Zero and standardize the colorimeter as follows:8.2.1 Set the colorimeter at 490 nm. Set zero absorbance(100 % transmittance

39、) with water in an 18-mm test tube. Readand record the absorbance (or percent transmittance) obtainedfor the standards.8.2.2 Plot the absorbance values versus concentration onrectangular coordinate paper. (If percent transmittance valuesare used, plot them versus concentration using semilog paper,wi

40、th the percent transmittance values on the log scale.) Draw abest fit line by eye. (See Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 for examples.) Whenplotting absorbance versus concentration note that the curvedoes not pass through the origin.9. Procedure9.1 Prepare the sample in accordance with the directionsgiven in 8.1.1

41、-8.1.5.NOTE 9Short form instructions are outlined in Appendix X1.9.2 Place the test tube containing the water in the colorim-eter and set the absorbance to zero, or to 100 % transmittance.9.3 Place the sample in the colorimeter and read theabsorbance or percent transmittance.NOTE 10Time LimitThe PAR

42、-lead solution obtained for the samplein 9.1 must be read within 10 min after the step described in 8.1.5.9.4 From the calibration curve, find the lead content of thesample. Determine the lead content to the nearest 0.001 g/gal(0.26 mg/L) value. Report the lead content to 0.01 g/gal (2.64mg/L).NOTE

43、11The lead content may be obtained from the calibration curveto three significant figures (0.001 g/gal); however, the value must berounded to two significant figures (0.01 g/gal) for reporting purposes.When the third digit is 5 the value should be rounded to the nearest evennumber. For example, 0.03

44、5 g/gal would be reported as 0.04 g/gal, while0.045 g/gal would also be reported as 0.04 g/gal.D 3348 98 (2003)e1310. Quality Control10.1 Confirm the performance of the apparatus or theprocedure, or both, each day it is in use by analyzing a QCsample (7.1.2) that is representative of samples typical

45、lyanalyzed. Increase the analysis frequency of the QC sample ifa large number of samples are analyzed. Analysis of theresult(s) from the QC sample(s) can be carried out usingcontrol charts,11or other statistically equivalent techniques, toascertain the control status of the total testing process. An

46、y outof control data should trigger investigation for root cause. TheQC sample precision shall be checked against the ASTMmethod precision to ensure data quality.11.
