Summary of

7、Practice4.1 This practice describes methods for obtaining represen-tative samples for analysis from shipments of vegetable tan-ning materials and tannin extracts.5. Significance and Use5.1 This practice provides standard procedures for obtainingrepresentative samples of various materials used as a s

8、ource oftannins for the tanning industry.5.2 Procedures are described for obtaining representativesamples of economical and convenient quantities from a lot, orsections of a lot, of material for examination and analysis sothat agreement may be reached with regard to the extent ofvariation of quality

9、 in different portions of a lot and the averagequality of the entire lot of material.5.3 No directions for sampling, however explicit, can takethe place of judgment, skill, and previous experience on thepart of persons actually engaged in the sampling or thesupervision of the sampling. These directi

10、ons are intended tosupplement that experience and, particularly, to serve as aguide in the selection of the method which is to be used, incommon, by each of two or more contracting parties.5.4 Tanning materials contain moisture in varying amounts,depending both on the nature of the material and on t

11、heclimatic conditions, so that sampling must be carried out asquickly as is consistent with thoroughness in order to avoidchanges in moisture content.6. Apparatus6.1 Balance, analytical balance which will weigh the quan-tity of material specified in this practice to an accuracy of 610g(6 0.35 oz).6.

12、2 Canvas, 11-oz weight and of sufficient size (as deter-mined by the discretion of the sampler or analyst) for use inmixing and quartering samples.6.3 Sieve, with round openings 1.27 cm (0.50 in.) indiameter.6.4 Sampling Tool, this tool shall be made of brass or othercorrosion-resistant metal tubing

13、, with solid handle attached,similar to that described below and illustrated in Fig. 1.1This practice is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D31 on Leather andis the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D31.01 on Vegetable Leather.

17、 is welded to one end of the tube. A section 11 mmwide and 30 cm long is cut out of the side of the tube and theedges of this opening sharply beveled. The working end is cutto a sharp point for piercing sacks, or other tough materials,like plantation gambier.7. Quartering Samples7.1 “Quartering” is

18、a term applied to the following methodof reducing the size of samples without impairing theirrepresentative quality.7.1.1 All of the material, taken from the various containersor parts of the shipment of solid material being sampled, shallbe immediately and thoroughly mixed on a square piece of 11oz

19、 canvas. In the case of solid extracts, large pieces shall havebeen broken previously so as to pass a screen having roundopenings 1.27 cm (0.50 in.) in diameter. The pile shall bedivided into four equal portions and quarters A and B shall bediscarded as illustrated in diagram X of Fig. 2. The remain

20、ingtwo quarters shall then be re-mixed thoroughly and againdivided into four equal portions and quarters C and D shall bediscarded as illustrated in diagram Y of Fig. 2. This processshall be repeated until the mixture of any two remainingquarters of the sample be of sufficient size to secure theindi

21、vidual samples as specified below. The individual samplesshall be obtained by thoroughly mixing the two remainingquarters and dividing the mixture into as many uniformsections as necessary, such that each section will be largeenough to fill one of the required number of containers. Allfine, powdery

22、material in each section shall be completelyremoved with its respective section, whether the section isdiscarded or placed in a sample container.8. Filling Containers8.1 Immediately after the final samples are obtained, theyshall be put into clean, dry containers, closed airtight, sealed,and labeled

23、 as described in the procedure (11.11).8.2 Liquid and powdered extracts and tannery liquorsamples shall be put into stoppered glass bottles of the requiredsize.8.3 Solid and pasty extracts shall be wrapped in aluminumfoil and put into Mason-type jars or tin cans of the requiredsize.8.4 Cut bark, fru

24、its, roots, galls, nuts, leaves, etc., and spentmaterials, shall be placed in lacquered, pressed-top tins of therequired size, which close airtight. Boxes or bags must not beused as containers.8.5 Sample containers shall be of no greater capacity thanwill conveniently be filled by the sample taken.9

25、. Number of Packages to be Sampled9.1 The number of packages to be sampled from any givenlot of tanning material composed of solid, powdered or pastyextract, crude or manufactured tanning materials, in bales,boxes, bags, barrels, or similar packages, shall be as shown inTable 1. The samples shall be

26、 selected from as uniformlydistributed parts of the lot as is possible at the time ofweighing.9.1.1 Where the shipment exceeds 10 000 packages, it shallbe divided into as few, equal, sections (of not more than 10 000packages each) as possible and each section shall be sampledand analyzed as if it we

27、re an individual shipment. In such case,the mean of the analyses of the sections shall constitute theanalysis of the shipment.10. Number of Samples10.1 In addition to the representative samples for submis-sion to the contracting parties, at least one extra sample shall betaken and held in reserve by

28、 the sampler, in case one of theregular samples is lost or damaged.11. Procedure11.1 Solid ExtractsCut a suitable triangular opening in themiddle of the exposed side of the package to be sampled. Thencut a V-shaped wedge, 10 to 12.5 cm (4 to 5 in.) in width on thesurface of the exposed side of the p

29、ackage, as near to themiddle as possible and to the depth shown in the diagramillustrated in Fig. 3.11.1.1 Remove this piece, including any dry or crumblyexterior portion of it, place on the quartering canvas andcovered to prevent loss of moisture. Promptly break theV-shaped samples from all the sel

30、ected packages to a sizewhich will pass the sieve (6.3). Quarter the mixture and sampleas described in Section 7. Each final sample shall weighapproximately 225 g (8 oz) and shall be packaged as describedin 8.3.11.2 Powdered ExtractsDraw a portion from each of thespecified number of bags, using the

31、sampling tool (6.4). Laythe bags horizontally, with the narrow side exposed, and insertthe sampling tool into the middle of the exposed side and to thecenter of the bag. The portions removed shall be of equalquantity, thoroughly mixed, and the mixture quartered andsampled as described in Section 7.

32、Each sample shall weighapproximately 170 g (6 oz.) and be packaged as described in8.2.FIG. 1 Sampling ToolFIG. 2 Quartering SamplesD 6404 99 (2009)211.3 Barks, Roots, Galls, Nuts, etc., in BagsDraw samplesas under “Powdered Extracts” (11.2), using a scoop, whennecessary, instead of the sampling tool

33、. Thoroughly mix theportions and quarter and sample the mixture as described inSection 7. Each sample shall consist of enough material to filla 3.8 L (1 gal) container, at least, and be packaged as describedin 8.4.11.3.1 In sampling Valonia cups and beards, take threeportions from each of the specif

34、ied number of bags, one fromthe middle, one midway between the middle and one end, andthe third between the middle and the other end. Thoroughlymix the portions and quarter and sample the mixture asdescribed in 11.3.11.3.1.1 In case of disagreement, or when agreed uponbetween buyer and seller, the f

35、ollowing method may be used:the specified number of bags shall be screened through thesieve (6.3) in their entirety and the percentage of cups andbeards determined by weighing. Draw samples of each bymixing and quartering, etc., as described in 11.3. State therelative proportions of cups and beards,

36、 found by weighing, onthe label and the same proportions taken for analysis.11.4 Bark and Wood in BalesSample chopped bark orsimilar material in bales by cutting a 15 cm (6 in.) slit in theapproximate middle of the covering of the bale. Using a meathook about 25 cm (10 in.) long, dig out the materia

37、l through theslit as deeply as possible. Thoroughly mix and sample theseportions as described in Section 7. Each final sample shallconsist of enough material to fill a 3.8 L (1 gal) container, atleast, and be packaged as described in 8.4.11.5 Bark and Wood in Sticks or Logs, Bulk ShipmentSelect the

38、required number of pieces and saw or break intosmaller pieces, each representing in relative size, as nearly asis practicable, the piece from which it was taken. The sawingmust be done so as to avoid iron contamination of the samplefrom the saw or other cutting instrument. Overheating of thesample b

39、ecause of friction from the cutting tool must beavoided. Thoroughly mix and sample the sample portionsobtained as described in Section 7. Each final sample shallconsist of enough material to fill a 3.8 L (1 gal) container, atleast, and be packaged as described in 8.4.11.6 Wood as Chips (from Chipper

40、)Take chips from thechipping machine at regular intervals during the run beingexamined and immediately place in a suitable, closed con-tainer. Thoroughly mix and sample these portions as describedin Section 7. Each final sample shall consist of enough materialto fill a 3.8 L (1 gal) container, at le

41、ast, and be packaged asdescribed in 8.4. Samples are not representative when water isused to lay the dust in chipping.11.7 Spent MaterialsMix a portion of material from theinner and outer areas of the top, middle, and bottom of theleach for sampling, or take five portions from the pitch-hole asthe s

42、pent material leaves the hole. Take the first portion 5 minafter starting to pitch and the last portion 5 min before pitchingis completed. Take the intermediate portions at equal timeintervals between the first and the last portions. Each portionshall be of approximately equal size. Sample autoclave
