Summary of Test Method3.1 A representative sam

5、ple of petroleum coke is dried,ground, and ashed in a muffle furnace at 700 to 750C (1292 to1383F). The residue or ash is expressed as a percentage of thedry petroleum coke.4. Significance and Use4.1 The ash content is one of the properties used to evaluatepetroleum coke and indicates the amount of

6、undesirableresidue present. Acceptable ash content varies with the in-tended use.5. Interferences5.1 High sulfur content of the furnace gases, regardless ofthe source of the sulfur, can react with an alkaline ash toproduce erratic results. The furnace must be swept with air toachieve oxidation and t

7、o decrease the sulfur content of thegases.5.2 Preparation and testing of the analysis sample mustneither remove nor add ash. Improper dividing, sieving, andcrushing equipment, and some muffle furnace lining materialcan contaminate the sample.6. Apparatus6.1 Crucibles, low wide form glazed porcelain

8、or platinum,30-mL capacity.6.2 Muffle Furnace, with temperature control between 700and 750C and equipped with a means to regulate air circula-tion.6.3 Analytical Balance capable of weighing to 0.1 mg.6.4 Drying Oven controlled at 110 6 5C.6.5 Desiccator.7. Sample Preparation7.1 Crush the laboratory

9、sample to pass a14 in. (6.3 mm)sieve. If the quantity exceeds 2.3 kg (5 lb), divide the sampleto obtain about 2.3 kg (5 lb) and crush this fraction to pass a850-m (No. 20) sieve. Further divide the sample to obtain aportion of approximately 200 g and crush to pass a 250-m(No. 60) sieve. Divide again

10、 to obtain approximately 50 g andpulverize this fraction such that 95 % or more passes a 75-m(No. 200) sieve. This is the analysis sample which is dried toconstant weight at 110 6 5C.NOTE 1If the laboratory sample appears to be wet it must be air-driedprior to crushing to avoid caking.NOTE 2Recommen

11、ded practice for collecting samples and the equip-ment and procedures for crushing and dividing are described in PracticesD 346 and D 2013.8. Preparation of Apparatus8.1 The muffle furnace, when initially set up, must be testedfor adequate air circulation. The air flow is adequate if replicatesample

12、s do not produce a lower ash at higher air flow rates withthe same furnace loading. Maintain air flow at the same levelfor subsequent analyses to ensure consistency in analyticaltechnique.9. Procedure9.1 Ignite a coded crucible to constant weight at 750C.Record the mass to 0.1 mg.9.2 Weigh a 10 g po

13、rtion of the dried analysis sample intothe coded crucible. Record the mass to 0.1 mg.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetroleum Products and Lubricants and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeD02.05 on Properties of Fuels, Petroleum Coke and Carbon Material

16、cold muffle furnace that hasbeen tested for adequate air circulation, and heat directly toabove 700C until constant mass (60.2 mg) is obtained. Donot exceed 750C.9.4 Allow the furnace to cool to 150C and transfer thecrucible to the desiccator for further cooling.9.5 Weigh the crucible and ash to the

17、 nearest 0.1 mg.10. Calculation10.1 Calculate the ash percent in the analysis sample asfollows:Ash, mass % 5A 2 BC3 100 (1)where:A = mass of crucible and ash residue, g,B = mass of empty crucible, g, andC = mass of analysis sample used, g.11. Report11.1 Report the ash content mass percent to the thi

18、rddecimal (thousandth of a percent) when the average of replicatevalues permits.11.2 Report the ash content mass percent to the seconddecimal (hundredth of a percent) when only single values aredetermined.12. Precision and Bias312.1 PrecisionThe precision of this test method as deter-mined by the st

19、atistical examination of the interlaboratory testresults is as follows:12.1.1 RepeatabilityThe difference between successiveresults obtained by the same operator with the same apparatusunder constant operating conditions on identical test materialswould, in the long run, in the normal and correct op

20、eration ofthe test method exceed the following values only in one case intwenty.Repeatability 5 0.02 (2)12.1.2 ReproducibilityThe difference between two singleand independent results obtained by different operators work-ing in different laboratories on identical material would in thelong run, exceed
