1、Designation: D 4573 03 (Reapproved 2009)Standard Test Method forRubber ChemicalsDetermination of Oil Content in Oil-Treated Sulfur1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4573; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of re
2、vision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the amountof hydrocarbon oils added to oil-treated su
3、lfurs. The testmethod is employed when the amount of oil added is 1 % ormore of the total sample.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any
4、, 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.2.

Gentlyswirl the flask to disperse the sulfur specimen.7.
16、4 Vacuum filter this mixture quantitatively through thepreviously tared filter crucible (see 5.1), contained in the filtercrucible holder, into a 500 cm3vacuum filter flask (see 5.2)adjusting the suction to pull the filtrate through the filtercrucible at a rate forming drops and not a steady stream

Do not allowthe filter cake to dry or crack during filtration.7.6 When filtrat
18、ion is complete, increase the suction to pullthe last traces of filtrate through the filter cake, leaving thevacuum on for 30 s after the last drop of filtrate falls.7.7 Remove the filter crucible from the holder and place it inan oven (see 5.3)at706 2C for 1 h. Then transfer the filtercrucible to a
19、 desiccator for 0.5 to 1 h.7.8 Remove the filter crucible from the desiccator andweigh it to the nearest 0.001 g (W2).7.9 Repeat steps 7.1-7.8 on a 5.0 6 0.5 g sample of puresulfur as a blank (B1).

Both repeatability and reproducibility are short term; aperiod of a few days separates replicate test results.Atest resultis the mean value, as specified by this method, obtained on twodeterminations or measurements of the property
25、or parameterin question.10.4 Two different materials were used in the interlabora-tory program. These were tested in six laboratories on twodifferent days.10.5 The results of the precision calculations for repeatabil-ity and reproducibility are given in Table 1, in ascending orderof material average
26、 or level, for each of the materials evalu-ated.10.6 The precision of this test method may be expressed inthe format of the following statements which use an “appro-priate value” of r, R, (r) or (R), that is, that value to be used indecisions about test results (obtained with the test method).The ap
27、propriate value is that value of r or R associated with amean level in Table 1 closest to the mean level underconsideration at any given time, for any given material inroutine testing operations.10.7 RepeatabilityThe repeatability, r, of this test methodhas been established as the appropriate value

Reference values have not been evaluatedfor this test method. Bias, therefore, cannot be determined.11. Keywords11.1 oil content; oil-treated sulfur; rubber chemic
