Significance and Use4.1 This practice provides a standard immersion procedurefor investigating the chem
9、ical resistance of a geosynthetic to aliquid waste, leachate, or chemical. The conditions specified inthis practice are intended both to provide a basis of standard-ization and to serve as a guide for those wishing to compare orinvestigate the chemical resistance of a geosynthetic materi-al(s).4.2 T
10、his practice is not intended to establish, by itself, thebehavior of geosynthetics when exposed to liquids. Suchbehavior, referred to as chemical resistance, can be definedonly in terms of specific chemical solutions and methods oftesting and evaluation criteria selected by the user.4.3 Without regu
11、latory approval, this practice does notsupersede testing requirements, such as SW 846, Method 9090,stipulated by regulatory agencies.5. Apparatus5.1 Exposure Tank, for containment of the solution and testmaterial. The tank must be chemically resistant and imperme-able to the solution being used. Sta
12、inless steel or glass isrecommended. Glass should not be used with strongly basicsolutions.5.1.1 The size of the exposure tank is not specified since thevolume of liquid to be used with any given amount ofimmersed geosynthetic has not been standardized by ASTM orspecified by the Environmental Protec
13、tion Agency at the timeof the writing of this practice. Sufficient liquid must be used toensure the presence of any potentially detrimental chemicals1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D35 on Geosyn-thetics and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D35.02 on EndurancePr

If sufficiently la
16、rge exposure tanksare not possible, or if it is suspected that trace amounts ofchemicals may be depleted from the liquid during the expo-sure, smaller tanks may be used if the immersion liquid isreplaced with fresh solution after each test period.5.2 Exposure Tank Lid, for sealing the tank. In order
17、 toprevent the loss of volatile components of interest, the tankmust be capable of being sealed with a chemically resistantmaterial.5.2.1 Unless otherwise specified, agreed upon, or required,provisions must be made for maintaining ambient atmosphericpressure in the tank. Using a reflex condenser ope
18、n to the air,a pressure relief valve or any method allowing the movementof gas to relieve pressure while minimizing changes in thechemical composition of the test solution is acceptable (see9.7). The purpose of this feature of the equipment is to preventpressure buildup in an exposure tank from the
19、generation ofgases by chemical reactions or biological activity.5.2.2 Pressurized tanks that maintain a constant pressuremay be used as an alternative to 5.2.1 when the maintenance ofa pressure other than ambient atmospheric pressure is speci-fied, agreed upon, or required.5.3 Temperature Control Eq
20、uipment, to maintain the immer-sion solution at the specified temperature. Options that haveworked well are the following: (1) a hot water bath to containthe exposure tank; (2) a heating coil wrapped around the tank,or a hot plate used in conjunction with a thermostat andthermocouple; and (3) a room
21、 controlled at the exposuretemperature for storing the tank. Placing a heating coil directlyin the exposure solution is not recommended since corrosionmay affect the coil, and chemical reactions that may nototherwise occur may occur on a hot coil.5.4 Stirrer, if required (see 9.4), for mixing the so
22、lution.Magnetically moved stirring bars and mechanical stirrersentering the tank through the lid will both work, depending onthe temperature control procedure.6. Reagents and Materials6.1 Immersion SolutionThe solutions potentially usedwith this practice have large differences in origin. The user of
23、this practice must determine the correct solution for use in theparticular application. Liquid wastes, leachates collected fromexisting installations, leachates made from solid wastes, syn-thetic leachates made from laboratory chemicals, standardchemical solutions (Test Method D 543), and reference
24、fuelsand oils (Test Method D 471) are some of the possibilities.7. Hazards7.1 The solutions used in this practice may contain hazard-ous chemicals. Precautions must be taken when handlinghazardous waste, chemicals, and immersion solutions. Protec-tive equipment suitable for the chemicals being used
25、must beworn by all personnel handling or exposed to the chemicals.Care should be taken when opening storage vessels at elevatedtemperatures, due to the increased volatility of organics andincreased activity of acids and bases. Care must also be takento prevent the spilling of hazardous materials, an
26、d provisionsmust be made to clean up any accidental spills that do occur.8. Sampling8.1 Samples of the geosynthetic(s) to be immersed shouldbe taken in a manner appropriate for the particular material. Itis essential that all of the material immersed, as well as theunexposed material to be tested, h
27、ave physical properties thatare as similar as possible. Refer to the section on sampling inthe applicable standard for the chemical resistance of thespecific geosynthetic to be tested.9. Procedure9.1 Tank PreparationClean the tank and lid thoroughlyprior to introduction of the sample or liquid. Use
28、distilled ordeionized water for the final rinse of the cleaning procedure.9.2 Sample ExposureHold the geosynthetic material to beimmersed in place in the exposure container in such a way thatcontact with the container and other sheets of material islimited as much as possible.9.2.1 Do not immerse di
29、fferent types of geosynthetic mate-rials in the same immersion vessel.9.2.2 Add the liquid to the tank with the test samples inplace. The liquid must cover the samples completely.9.2.3 If the liquid is placed in the tank at ambient tempera-ture and heated subsequently to an elevated immersion tem-pe
30、rature, the liquid will expand to a greater volume. This canresult in the volume of the liquid exceeding the capacity of thetank and thus a spill of hazardous materials. Expansion of theliquid should be anticipated and procedures prepared for thecontainment of excess liquid.9.3 Sealing the TanksUnle
31、ss otherwise specified, agreedupon, or required, seal the exposure tanks with no air if thesolution contains volatile organics or if the solution to be incontact with the geosynthetic will exist in the field under buriedconditions. The pressure inside the tank must be the same asthat outside the tan
32、k.9.3.1 Do not seal the exposure tanks and leave an air spaceequal to 10 6 2 % of the volume of the exposure tank if thereare no volatile organics in the solution and the geosyntheticwill be used under free air exchange conditions in the field. Ifthe tank is not sealed, the solution must be monitore
33、d closelyfor volume changes due to evaporation or water absorption.Evaporation must be minimized as much as possible. Replaceevaporated water with distilled or deionized water. Keep arecord of the volume of water added and the date water wasadded. If the solution picks up moisture, store the tank in
34、 alow-humidity environment to eliminate the problem.9.4 Stirring the SolutionStirring the immersion liquid isrequired unless evidence can be offered that stirring is notnecessary to maintain a homogeneous solution. By keeping thesolution circulating slowly, fresh solution is constantly passingover t
35、he surface of the geosynthetic, thereby preventing astagnant layer of reacted or used liquid from existing aroundthe geosynthetic and thus stratification or settling of chemicalconstituents.9.4.1 If the immersion liquid consists of two separateimmiscible liquids, and if the volume of the lesser of t
36、he twoliquids constitutes a significant portion of the solution (greaterthan 1 %), two separate immersions should be conducted withD 5322 98 (2003)2the two liquids, if it is possible to collect enough of the lessersolution to perform the immersion.9.5 Immersion TemperaturesRecommended standardtemper
37、atures are 23C (73F) and 50C (122F). Highertemperatures may affect the synthetic material adversely in amanner that would not occur at the lower temperatures.Immersion at temperatures above 50C is not recommendedunless the material is to be used at higher temperatures.Maintain the temperature of the
38、 exposure tanks within 2C(4F) of the selected immersion temperature.NOTE 1Caution must be used in interpreting the results from anelevated temperature immersion. The magnitude of changes seen atelevated temperatures, such as weight gain, may never occur at roomtemperature, regardless of the exposure
39、 period. Biological activity thatmay have an effect on the material may be terminated by the hightemperatures. If possible biological attack on the material is expected,other tests for biological resistance should be conducted in addition to thechemical resistance test.9.6 Test Period SelectionIn ad
40、dition to testing the unex-posed geosynthetic material, conduct testing after four immer-sion periods. Immerse sufficient material for the plannedimmersion periods plus two additional periods. Testing aftermore than four periods may be necessary, if warranted bychanges observed in the material, or i
41、f additional data arenecessary due to erratic or inconclusive results.9.6.1 In the absence of other specifications or user require-ments, the standard immersion periods are 1, 2, 3, and 4months.NOTE 2One month is intended to be approximately 30 days. Monthsare specified rather than a certain number
42、of days in order to allowcompensation for weekends and holidays during a test program.NOTE 3Testing after time periods longer than four months may bedesirable to demonstrate long-term chemical resistance. Shorter testperiods may be appropriate, if it is necessary to demonstrate only that agross lack
43、 of chemical resistance does not exist, or if the geosynthetic isintended for use in contact with the liquid for only a short time period (lessthan the normal four-month immersion period) and is not intended for useafter the short-term utilization.9.7 Maintaining Solution ChemistryIf it is suspected
44、 thattrace amounts of chemicals may be depleted from the liquid, orthat the chemical nature of the liquid changes with time, it isrecommended that the immersion liquid be replaced with freshsolution after each test period. If the liquid is to be replacedperiodically, it is important that the fresh l
45、iquid be from thesame source as the original liquid and that the fresh liquid beas similar to the original liquid as possible.NOTE 4The solution may need conditioning if it can be demonstratedthat the solution chemistry will change under exposure conditions. Ifnecessary, condition the liquid in a co
46、ntainer separate from the tankholding the test samples. After 24 hours under exposure conditions, pourthe conditioned liquid into the tank with the test samples in place.9.8 Test ProceduresThe actual physical testing of thegeosynthetic materials before and after exposure is not coveredin this practi
47、ce. Practice D 5747 or SW 846, Method 9090 maybe of interest for geomembrane testing.NOTE 5Additional test procedures for yielding test data are beingprovided in other guides presently being developed by ASTM CommitteeD-35.10.
