Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of chlorideion in engine coolants in the range from 5 to 200 ppm in thepresence of up to 0.6 weight % mercaptobenzothiazole.1.2 Other materials that react with silver ion will interfere.1.3 Chloride in engine coolants containi

4、ng an aryltriazoleinstead of mercaptobenzothiazole can be determined directlyby this test method without pretreatment with hydrogen per-oxide.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.5 This standard does not purport

5、 to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

7、emicalAnalysis2.2 Manufacturing Chemists Association Document:3MCA Chemical Safety Data Sheet SD-533. Summary of Test Method3.1 The sample is first treated at a pH of 12 to 13 withaqueous hydrogen peroxide to oxidize the mercaptobenzothia-zole to soluble, noninterfering sulfonate. The treated sample

8、 isdissolved in glacial acetic acid and titrated potentiometricallywith dilute standard silver nitrate solution. Since the solubilityof silver chloride in this system is sufficient to preventobtaining a suitable inflection at the very low limit of the testmethod, some chloride is deliberately added

9、to the glacialacetic acid solvent and then corrected for by a blank titration.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method permits the determination of very lowlevels of chloride ion in engine coolants containing thecommon corrosion inhibitor, mercaptobenzothiazole, or relatedmercaptans, which would

10、normally interfere with the titrationby also forming insoluble silver salts with silver nitrate.5. Apparatus5.1 Manual Titrations:5.1.1 pH MeterAn expanded scale pH meter which can beread to 1 or 2 mV is desirable but not required. A silver billetindicator electrode4and glass reference electrode5are

11、 used forthe chloride titration. The silver electrode should be polishedoccasionally with fine steel wool or scouring powder andthoroughly rinsed.5.1.2 Buret, 10-mL, micro, Class A, calibrated in 0.02-mLdivisions.1This test method is under the jurisidiction of ASTM Committee D15 on EngineCoolants an

33、ansfer the contents quantitatively to a 200-mL volumetricflask and dilute to volume with water.10.2 In a 200-mL volumetric flask, prepare a blank byadding 5 mL of 30 mass % aqueous H2O2and the same amountof 20 mass % aqueous NaOH solution used in 10.1 and diluteto 200 mL with water.10.3 Pipet 100 mL

34、 of the glacial acetic acid titration solventinto each of two beakers.Accurately pipet 20 mL of the treatedengine coolant sample into one beaker and 20 mL of the blank(10.2) into the second beaker and allow to dissolve. Titrate thecontents of each beaker potentiometrically with 0.01 N AgNO3solution

35、while stirring slowly with a magnetic stirrer. Theequilibration of electrode potentials is slow in the vicinity ofthe end point; therefore, the titrant should be added in 0.02-mLincrements in this region and sufficient time allowed for stablereadings to be obtained.11.
