1、Designation: D 5832 98 (Reapproved 2008)Standard Test Method forVolatile Matter Content of Activated Carbon Samples1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5832; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the yea
2、r 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 per-centage of gaseous products, exclusive of moisture vapor,pre
3、sent in virgin and used activated carbons which are releasedunder specific conditions of the test.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 an
4、y, 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.

6、atter is determined by establishing the loss inmass resulting from heating an activated carbon sample underrigidly controlled conditions. The measured mass loss, cor-rected for moisture as determined in Test Method D 2867,establishes the volatile matter content of the activated carbonsample.5. Signi
7、ficance and Use5.1 Volatile matter, when determined as herein described,may be used as a relative measure of the extent of carboniza-tion in an activated carbon and the extent of loading of volatilematerial on an activated carbon that has been used in anadsorption application.5.2 Combined with other
8、 information, the volatile matter ofan activated carbon may be useful in evaluating its perfor-mance in an adsorption application.5.3 Other automated methods for the determination of thevolatile content of solids, such as using a thermogravimetricanalyzer (TGA), can be used in place of this test met

Hazards7.1 The furnace used in this test method should be located ina well ventilated area to eliminate exposure to possible toxicvapors that may evolve from the carbon sample during the hightemperature heating.7.2 Exercise care when working
14、with the high temperaturefurnace to eliminate the possibility of burns.8. Procedure8.1 Determine the moisture content of an as-received rep-resentative portion of the sample using the Xylene-ExtractionTest Method described in D 2867. If the as-received sample iswet, drain it of all free liquid befor

Record the weight.8.3 Using a spoon or spatula, dip from the sample bottleapproximately1goftheas-received sample and
16、 place it in thepre-dried and tared crucible. Cover it with a lid and immedi-ately weigh it to the nearest 0.1 mg.8.4 Place the covered crucible in the muffle furnace regu-lated at 950 6 25C for 7 min 6 10 s.8.5 Remove the covered crucible from the muffle furnaceand cool to room temperature in a des

Precision and Bias10.1 An interlaboratory study
19、 of this test method wasconducted in 1996. Each of seven laboratories tested threerandomly drawn specimens from each of three different acti-vated carbons containing volatile matter content. CarbonAwasa coconut shell gas phase carbon containing gasoline vapors.Carbon B was a coal based liquid phase
20、carbon containingorganic components from gasoline. Carbon C was a coconutshell vapor phase carbon containing chlorinated organic com-pounds. The average volatile matter contents were 24.7 %,9.1 % and 12.9 %, respectively. In order to determine thevolatile matter content of the samples, their moistur
21、e contentswere determined according to Test Method D 2867 and werefound to be 3.54 %, 35.2 % and 3.87 %, respectively. PracticeE 691 and E 691 computer software were used to design thestudy and analyze the resulting data.10.2 95 % Limit on Repeatability (Within Laboratory), %:Activated CarbonABCVolt
