Summary of Test Method3.1 A specimen of carbon black is extracted for
6、48 h (orother specified time) in a Soxhlet extractor, the solvent re-moved by controlled temperature evaporation, and the ex-tracted residue determined gravimetrically. If the carbon blackextractables are to be subjected to additional analysis, seeSection 7.4. Significance and Use4.1 The carbon blac
7、k extract test procedure provides auniform and precise method for the gravimetric determinationof organic-solvent extractables on carbon black. Accuracy andprecision are acceptable for most specification or regulatorypurposes, or both. However, carbon black with very low extract(less than 0.02 %) ma
8、y require a more rigorous extractionprocedure. The actual chemical composition of the extract canvary significantly with the type and origin of the carbon black.5.

Precautions7.1 For safety reasons, conduct the extraction and solventevaporation in an approved fume hood. Carbon blacks maycontain polynucle
19、ar aromatic compounds, some of which arecarcinogens. These compounds, when present, are so stronglybound to the carbon black that they are biologically inactive.However, they may be removed by extraction with toluene orother appropriate solvents. Avoid skin contact with solventextracts from such car
20、bon blacks.7.2 For most pelleted blacks, the depth of 60 mm in thethimble should provide a sample of 15 to 25 g. Unpelletedblacks should be predensified sufficiently that this depth willrequire a sample of at least 10 g.7.3 Do not use joint lubricant on the ground joints. Tominimize vapor loss by le
21、akage, the joints may be sealed withTFE-fluorocarbon inserts or wrapped with TFE-fluorocarbonlaboratory tape.7.4 New thimbles should be washed before use by suctionwith hot HCl and then rinsed with distilled or deionized waterto remove loose particles of foreign matter such as dust.Thimbles are conv
22、eniently cleaned by back washing undersuction with appropriate media (water, acetone, etc.). If thefritted disc becomes fouled with carbon black, it may benecessary to burn it out by slowly heating the thimble fromroom temperature to 500C in a muffle furnace. One hour isusually sufficient. The use o
23、f chromic acid cleaning solution isnot recommended. The permeability of the clean thimbleshould be checked periodically. Discard thimbles with drainagetimes exceeding the 95 s specified under 5.2.7.5 To prevent contamination, it is recommended that allglassware used in this procedure be reserved for
24、 the extractionof carbon black. If this is not feasible, the glassware must beextracted before use in accordance with 7.6.7.6 New glassware, including thimbles, must be extracted,repeatedly if necessary, with toluene or other solvent until theblank is acceptable (preferably less than 0.3 mg/150 cm3s
25、olvent).7.7 Two or three glass beads may be added to the extractionflask to promote smooth boiling. Do not use porous boilingchips.7.8 An extraction must be discarded if there is any visiblecarbon black in the extraction flask or if the thimble does notdrain properly and overflows at any time during
26、 the extraction.7.9 The nitrogen should be delivered through a glass ormetal tip. Do not allow plastic or rubber to contact the solvent.7.10 To protect from dust, a loose cover over the evapora-tion vessel is recommended.7.11 Solvent evaporation may be conducted in a vacuumevaporator, if available.7
27、.12 Any further analysis of the extracted material typicallyrequires that it be in solution. Complete re-solution of the dryextract may be difficult or impossible. Therefore, if furtheranalysis is to be performed, an additional sample of the carbonblack should be extracted and solvent removal carrie
28、d only tothe desired reduced volume. It is recommended that exposureto strong light, especially sunlight, be avoided during extrac-tion and subsequent handling, and that the extract be blanketedwith inert gas (nitrogen) if retained for any length of time.7.13 It has been found that there may be sign
29、ificant varia-tion in the amount of residue found in different bottles oftoluene bearing the same lot number. Consequently, blanksshould be run on each bottle.8. Procedure8.1 Dry an adequate specimen of the carbon black for1hinthe gravity-convection oven set at 125C in an open containerof suitable d
30、imensions so that the depth of the black is no morethan 10 mm. Cool and store the sample in a desiccator.8.2 Weigh, into a clean, dry extraction thimble, sufficientdried carbon black to fill the thimble to a depth of approxi-mately 60 mm. Record the weight of black to 0.1 g. Place aplug of glass woo
31、l above the black. Insert the thimble into theextraction tube, place 150 cm3of toluene in the extractionflask, and assemble the apparatus (see 7.1-7.6).8.3 Extract continuously for 48 h (or other time if specified),heating so that the cycle time between siphonings is 4 to 5 min(see 7.7). Wrap alumin
32、um foil loosely around the extractiontube and upper part of the flask to reduce heat loss. Terminatethe extraction with the extraction cup nearly full to reduce thequantity of solvent to be subsequently evaporated from theresidue in the extraction flask (See 7.8).8.4 Filter the contents of the extra
33、ction flask into a cleanfilter flask using moderate suction, rinsing the extraction flaskand filter funnel with several small portions of toluene.8.5 Evaporate the contents of the filter flask at 40 to 50Cuntil approximately 10 cm3remains. Direct a stream of drynitrogen onto the surface of the solut
34、ion to hasten evaporation(see 7.9-7.11).8.6 Transfer the remaining solution to the previously driedand weighed (to 0.1 mg) final container, rinsing the flask withseveral small portions of toluene. Continue evaporation toessentially dryness (see 7.12).8.7 To complete solvent removal to constant resid
35、ue mass,place the container in a vacuum oven at 40C. Setting thecontainer on the floor of the oven should be avoided; anon-conductive support or equivalent should be used.

36、lable from J.T. BauerChemical Co., 223 Red School Ln., Phillipsburg, NJ 08865 are preferred products.Analytical reagent grade available from Mallinckrodt, Inc., 675-T McDonnell Blvd.,St. Louis, MO 63134 has generally been found acceptable.D4527 99 (2011)2reduce the oven pressure to approximately 3.3
37、 kPa andthereafter hold at that level. After a suitable time (usually 45min to 1 h), cool the container and contents to room tempera-ture in a desiccator and weigh to 0.1 mg. Return to the oven for15 min, cool, and reweigh. Repeat as necessary until the massis constant. Subtract the original mass to
38、 obtain the mass ofresidue.8.8 Make duplicate blank determinations on each bottle oftoluene placed in use. Follow this procedure exactly but omitthe carbon black (see 7.13).9.

40、0.01 %.11. Precision and Bias11.1 These precision data are based on single tests of threesamples by five laboratories on two days. The range of thesamples studied was from about 0.06 % to about 1.02 %.Precision is expressed in absolute terms.NOTE 1The precision is based on limited data in that only
41、fivelaboratories participated in the interlaboratory study.11.2 In test method statistical terminology, bias is thedifference between an average test value and the reference ortrue test property value. Reference values do not exist for thistest method since the value or level of the test property is
42、exclusively defined by this test method. Bias, therefore, cannotbe determined.11.3 Repeatability (Single-Operator)The repeatabilityhas been estimated to be 60.06 percentage points. Two testresults are significantly different if their difference exceeds0.09 percentage points.11.4 Reproducibility (Mul
43、tilaboratory)The reproducibil-ity has been estimated to be 60.09 percentage points. Two testresults are significantly different if their difference exceeds0.13 percentage points.NOTE 2This precision statement was developed following the guide-lines presented in Practices D3051 and D3396.12.
