Summary of Test Methods3.1 In these test methods, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogenare determined concurrently in a single instrumental procedure.With some systems, the procedure consists o
9、f simply weighinga portion of the sample, placing the portion in the instrument,and initiating the (subsequently automatic) analytical process.In other systems, the analytical process, to some degree, ismanually controlled.3.2 The actual process can vary substantially from instru-ment to instrument,
10、 since a variety of means can be utilized toeffect the primary requirements of the test methods. Allsatisfactory processes provide for the following:3.2.1 The conversion of the subject materials (in theirentirety) to carbon dioxide, water vapor, and elemental nitro-gen, respectively, and3.2.2 The su
11、bsequent, quantitative determination of thesegases in an appropriate gas stream.3.3 The conversion of the subject materials to their corre-sponding gases takes place largely during combustion of thesample at an elevated temperature in an atmosphere of purifiedoxygen. Here, a variety of gaseous mater
12、ials are produced,including the following:3.3.1 Carbon dioxide from the oxidation of organic andelemental carbon,3.3.2 Hydrogen halides from organic halides (and organichydrogen, as required),3.3.3 Water vapor from the oxidation of (the remaining)organic hydrogen and the liberation of moisture,3.3.4

Insome systems, sulfurous a
16、nd sulfuric acids can also be obtainedfrom a combination of the sulfur oxides and the water vapor.3.4 There are several accepted ways of isolating the desiredgaseous products and quantitatively determining them. Theseare as follows:3.4.1 Test Method A3,4From the combustion product gasstream, oxides
17、of sulfur are removed with calcium oxide in thesecondary combustion zone. A portion of the remaining mixedgases is carried by helium gas over a hot copper train to removeoxygen, and reduce NOxto N2, over NaOH to remove CO2,and over magnesium perchlorate to remove H2O. The remain-ing elemental nitrog
18、en is measured by the thermal conductivitycell. Simultaneously, but separately from the nitrogen measure-ment, the carbon and hydrogen selective infrared cells measurethe CO2and H2O levels.3.4.2 Test Method B4,5 From the combustion product gasstream (which is cleaned from sulfur oxides, excess oxyge
19、n,etc. as in 3.4.1), the remaining CO2, water vapor, and N2areflushed into a mixing chamber and are thoroughly homog-enized at a precise volume, temperature, and pressure. Afterhomogenization, the chamber is depressurized to allow thegases to pass through a heated column, where the gasesseparate as
20、a function of selective retention times. The sepa-ration occurs in a stepwise steady-state manner for nitrogen,carbon dioxide, and water.3.4.3 Test Method C4,6The combustion product gasstream, after full oxidation of component gases, is passed overheated copper to remove excess oxygen and reduce NOx
21、to N2gas. The gases are then passed through a heated chromato-graphic column to separate and elute N2,CO2, and H2O in thatorder. The individual eluted gases are measured by a thermalconductivity detector.3.5 In all cases, the concentrations of carbon, hydrogen andnitrogen are calculated as functions
22、 of the following:3.5.1 The measured instrumental responses,3.5.2 The values for response per unit mass for the elements(established via instrument calibration), and3.5.3 The mass of the sample.3.6 A capability for performing these computations auto-matically can be included in the instrumentation u
23、tilized forthese test methods.4. Significance and Use4.1 This is the first ASTM standard covering the simulta-neous determination of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen inpetroleum products and lubricants.4.2 Carbon, hydrogen, and particularly nitrogen analysesare useful in determining the complex nature
24、 of sample typescovered by this test method. The CHN results can be used toestimate the processing and refining potentials and yields in thepetrochemical industry.4.3 The concentration of nitrogen is a measure of thepresence of nitrogen containing additives. Knowledge of itsconcentration can be used
25、 to predict performance. Somepetroleum products also contain naturally occurring nitrogen.Knowledge of hydrogen content in samples is helpful inaddressing their performance characteristics. Hydrogen tocarbon ratio is useful to assess the performance of upgradingprocesses.5. Apparatus5.1 Since a vari
26、ety of instrumental components and configu-rations can be satisfactorily utilized for these test methods, nospecifications are given here with respect to overall systemdesign.5.2 Functionally, however, the following are specified for allinstruments:5.2.1 The conditions for combustion of the sample m
27、ust besuch that (for the full range of applicable samples) the subjectcomponents are completely converted to carbon dioxide, watervapor (except for hydrogen associated with volatile halides andsulfur oxides), and nitrogen or nitrogen oxides. Generally,instrumental conditions that affect complete com
28、bustion in-clude availability of the oxidant, temperature, and time.5.2.2 Representative aliquots of the combustion gases mustthen be treated:5.2.2.1 To liberate (as water vapor) hydrogen present ashydrogen halides and sulfur oxyacids, and5.2.2.2 To reduce (to the element) nitrogen present asnitroge
29、n oxides.5.2.3 The water vapor and nitrogen so obtained must beincluded with the materials originally present in these aliquots.5.2.4 Additional treatment of the aliquots (prior to detec-tion) depends on the detection scheme utilized for the instru-ment (see Note 1).NOTE 1These additional treatments
30、 can be provided by the instru-mental components utilized to satisfy 5.2.2.5.2.5 The detection system (in its full scope) must deter-mine the analytical gases individually and without interference.Additionally, for each analyte, either:5.2.5.1 The detectors must provide linear responses withrespect
31、to concentration over the full range of possible con-centrations from the applicable samples, or5.2.5.2 The system must include provisions for appropri-ately evaluating nonlinear responses so that they can beaccurately correlated with these concentrations.5.2.6 Such provisions can be integral to the
32、 instrumentation,or they can be provided by (auxiliary) computation schemes.5.2.7 Lastly, except for those systems where the concentra-tion data are output directly, the instrument must include anappropriate readout device for the detector responses.5.3 Additionally consumables needed for the analys
