3、.2 editorially in October 2008.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the aro-matic hydrogen content (Procedures A and B) and aromaticcarbon content (Procedure C) of hydrocarbon oils usinghigh-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrom-eters. Applicable samples include ke

4、rosenes, gas oils, mineraloils, lubricating oils, coal liquids, and other distillates that arecompletely soluble in chloroform at ambient temperature. Forpulse Fourier transform (FT) spectrometers, the detection limitis typically 0.1 mol % aromatic hydrogen atoms and 0.5 mol %aromatic carbon atoms.

5、For continuous wave (CW) spectrom-eters, which are suitable for measuring aromatic hydrogencontents only, the detection limit is considerably higher andtypically 0.5 mol % aromatic hydrogen atoms.1.2 The reported units are mole percent aromatic hydrogenatoms and mole percent aromatic carbon atoms.1.

6、3 This test method is not applicable to samples containingmore than 1 mass % olefinic or phenolic compounds.1.4 This test method does not cover the determination of thepercentage mass of aromatic compounds in oils since NMRsignals from both saturated hydrocarbons and aliphatic sub-stituents on aroma

7、tic ring compounds appear in the samechemical shift region. For the determination of mass or volumepercent aromatics in hydrocarbon oils, chromatographic, ormass spectrometry methods can be used.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.6 This standard does not purport to

8、 address all of thesafety problems, if any, 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.

17、ed by deuterium, the heavier isotope ofhydrogen. Chloroform-d is available from a variety of chemi-cal and isotope suppliers.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 Hydrogen (1H) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)spectra are obtained on solutions of the sample inchloroform-d, using a CW or pulse FT high-resoluti

18、on NMRspectrometer. Carbon (13C) NMR spectra are obtained onsolutions of the sample in chloroform-d using a pulse FThigh-resolution NMR spectrometer. Tetramethylsilane is pre-ferred as an internal reference in these solvents for assigningthe 0.0 parts per million (ppm) chemical shift position inboth

19、1H and13C NMR spectra.4.2 The aromatic hydrogen content of the sample is mea-sured by comparing the integral for the aromatic hydrogenband in the1H NMR spectrum (5.0 to 10.0 ppm chemical shiftregion) with the sum of the integrals for both the aliphatichydrogen band (0.5 to 5.0 ppm region) and the ar

20、omatichydrogen band (5.0 to 10.0 ppm region).4.3 The aromatic carbon content of the sample is measuredby comparing the integral for the aromatic carbon band inthe13C spectrum (100 to 170 ppm chemical shift region) withthe sum of the integrals for both the aliphatic carbon band (10to 70 ppm region) a

21、nd the aromatic carbon band (100 to 170ppm region).4.4 The integral of the aromatic hydrogen band must becorrected for the NMR absorption line due to residual chloro-form (7.25 ppm chemical shift) in the predominantlychloroform-d solvent.4.5 The integrals of the aliphatic hydrogen band and of theali

22、phatic carbon band must be corrected for the NMR absorp-tion line due to the internal chemical shift reference tetrameth-ylsilane (0.0 ppm chemical shift in both1H and13C spectra).5. Significance and Use5.1 Aromatic content is a key characteristic of hydrocarbonoils and can affect a variety of prope

23、rties of the oil including itsboiling range, viscosity, stability, and compatibility of the oilwith polymers.5.2 Existing methods for estimating aromatic contents usephysical measurements, such as refractive index, density, andnumber average molecular weight (seeTest Method D 3238)orinfrared absorba

24、nce4and often depend on the availability ofsuitable standards. These NMR procedures do not requirestandards of known aromatic hydrogen or aromatic carboncontents and are applicable to a wide range of hydrocarbon oilsthat are completely soluble in chloroform at ambient tempera-ture.5.3 The aromatic h

25、ydrogen and aromatic carbon contentsdetermined by this test method can be used to evaluate changesin aromatic contents of hydrocarbon oils due to changes inprocessing conditions and to develop processing models inwhich the aromatic content of the hydrocarbon oil is a keyprocessing indicator.6.

36、8. Sampling8.1 It is assumed that a representative sample acquired by aprocedure of Practice D 4057 or equivalent has been receivedin the laboratory. If the test is not to be conducted immediatelyupon receipt of the sample, store in a cool place until needed.8.2 A minimum of approximately 10 mL of s

37、ample isrequired for this test method. This should allow duplicatedeterminations, if desired.8.3 All samples must be homogeneous prior to subsam-pling. If any suspended particles present are attributable toforeign matter such as rust, filter a portion of the sample to betested through a small plug o

38、f glass wool, contained in a cleansmall funnel, into a clean and dry vial or NMR sample tubecontaining chloroform-d.8.4 If the sample contains waxy materials, heat the samplein the container to approximately 60C and mix with ahigh-shear mixer prior to sampling. It may be necessary totransfer a porti

39、on of the sample to an NMR tube containingchloroform-d by means of a pipet which has been heated toapproximately 60C to maintain the homogeneity of thesample.8.5 For a valid test result, samples must be completelysoluble in chloroform-d. Check to ensure that the final solutionis homogeneous and free

Procedures9.1 Three different procedures are described in this sectionfor determining the aromatic hydrogen content, (see 9.6)Procedures A and B (see 9.7), and the aromatic carbon contentof hydrocarbon oils, Procedure C (see 9.8).9.2 The procedure selected by the analyst

41、 will depend on theavailable NMR instrumentation and on whether an aromatichydrogen or aromatic carbon content is of greater value inevaluating the characteristics of the hydrocarbon oil.9.3 Appendix X1 and Practice E 386 should be used inconjunction with the NMR spectrometer manufacturers in-struct

42、ions in order to ensure optimum performance of the NMRinstrument in the application of these procedures.9.4 If tetramethylsilane is used as an internal chemical shiftstandard, prepare a 1 % v/v TMS in solvent solution by addingtetramethylsilane to chloroform-d solvent. Since TMS is veryvolatile, thi

43、s solution should be refrigerated or replaced if thecharacteristic absorption due to TMS is no longer evident inthe1Hor13C NMR spectrum.9.5 If it is inconvenient to prepare the test solution directlyin the NMR sample tube as suggested in the followingprocedures, the test solution can be prepared in

44、a small vial andtransferred into the NMR sample tube after solvent additionand sample dissolution. Care should be exercised to ensure thatthe final solution concentrations are not different from thoseindicated in the procedures and that no contamination occursduring the transfer process.9.6 Procedur
