6、ary of Test Method3.1 Bisphenol A is dissolved in methanol. This solution isthen transferred to a color comparison tube and the colorcompared to that of the Platinum-Cobalt Color Standards,either visually or by means of a spectrophotometer.

7、dard.4. Significance and Use4.1 Color is caused by impurities in the bisphenol A. Theacceptable amount of color depends on the end-use of thebisphenol A.4.2 This test method can be used for internal quality controlor for setting specifications.5. Interferences5.1 The presence of any turbidity or haz

8、e will affect thecolor reading.5.2 A bisphenol A color that is off-hue, or tinted with respectto the color standards, may interfere with proper color com-parison.6. Apparatus6.1 Color Comparison TubesMatched 100 mL, tall-formNessler tubes, provided with ground-on, optically clear, glasscaps. Tubes s

9、hould be selected so that the height of the 100-mLgraduation mark is 275 to 295 mm above the bottom of thetube.6.2 Color Comparator, constructed to permit visual com-parison of light transmitted through tall-form, 100 mL Nesslertubes in the direction of their longitudinal axis; and so thatwhite ligh

10、t is passed through or reflected off a white glass plateand directed with equal intensity through the tubes. It should beshielded so that no light enters the tubes from the sides.6.3 Spectrophotometer, equipped for liquid samples and formeasurements in the visible region.NOTE 1The spectrophotometer

11、must be clean and in excellent oper-ating condition. The instrument should be calibrated in accordance withthe instructions given in NIST Letter Circular LC 1017. For goodagreement with the visual method, the spectrophotometer or colorimetershould be a filter type instrument.6.4 Spectrophotometer Ce

18、 method.9. Sampling9.1 Sample the material in accordance with PracticeD 4297.10. Procedure10.1 Weigh 50 g of bisphenol A. Transfer to a 150-mLErlenmeyer flask.10.2 Measure 70 mL of methanol. Add to the Erlenmeyerflask containing the bisphenol A.10.3 Stir until all the bisphenol A is dissolved.10.4 T

19、ransfer the methanol solution to a color comparisontube, fill to the 100-mL mark, and cap the tube.10.5 If there is any visible turbidity, pass the methanolsolution through a filter and refill the comparison tube.10.6 Visually compare the methanol solution comparisontube with the color standards. A

20、spectrophotometer can be usedto determine the transmittance at a wavelength of 436 nm,which would be an indication of the color intensity.10.7 If a timed color development test is run, measure thecolor 30 min after the bisphenol A is dissolved in the methanol.(WarningUse of a spectrophotometer may p

Report11.1 Report the following information:11.1.1 The number of the standard that most nearly matchesthe specimen. If the color lies midway between two standards,report the darker of the two.11.1.2

22、 The result to the nearest 5 units. Duplicate runs thatagree within 10 units absolute are acceptable for averaging(95 % confidence level).11.2 If there is a difference in hue between the specimensand the standards, and a definite match cannot be made, reportthe range over which an apparent match is

23、obtained, and reportthe material as “off-hue.”12. Precision and Bias712.1 PrecisionThe precision estimates are based upon aninterlaboratory study on three specimens of bisphenol A fromthree different sources. One analyst in each of six laboratoriesperformed duplicate determinations and repeated on a

24、 secondday, for a total of 72 determinations. Practice E 180 was usedin developing these precision estimates.12.1.1 Intermediate Precision, previously called Repeat-ability (Single Analyst)The standard deviation of results(each the average of duplicate determinations), obtained by thesame analyst on

25、 different days, was estimated to be 2.0 unitsabsolute at 18 df. Two such averages should be consideredsuspect (95 % confidence level) if they differ by more than 10units absolute.12.1.2 Reproducibility (Multilaboratory)The standard de-viation of results (each the average of duplicate determina-tion

26、s), obtained by analysts in different laboratories has beenestimated to be 9.0 units absolute at 5 df. Two such averagesshould be considered suspect (95 % confidence level) if theydiffer by more than 35 units absolute.12.2 BiasSince there is no accepted reference materialsuitable for determining the

27、 bias in this test method formeasuring solution color, bias has not been determined.13.
