Water extractable salts,originating from additives present in oils, are codetermined.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any,
5、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.

Summary of Test Method3
8、.1 After homogenizing the crude oil with a mixer, aweighed aliquot is dissolved in xylene at 65C and extractedwith specified volumes of alcohol, acetone, and water in anelectrically heated extraction apparatus. A portion of theaqueous extract is analyzed for total halides by potentiometrictitration.
9、4. Significance and Use4.1 A knowledge of water extractable inorganic halides inoil is important when deciding whether or not the oils needdesalting. Excessive halide, especially in crude oil, frequentlyresults in higher corrosion rates in refining units.5. Apparatus5.1 Extraction Apparatus, made of

Sampling and Sample Preparation7.1 Sampling is defined as all the steps required to obtain analiquot representative of the contents of any
28、 pipe, tank, or othersystem, and to place the sample into the laboratory samplecontainer. The laboratory sample container and sample volumeshall be of sufficient dimensions and volume to allow mixing,as described in 7.4.(WarningThe results of the round robinhave shown that for reliable results, stri
29、ct adherence to thesampling and mixing procedure is of the utmost importance.)7.2 Laboratory SampleThe sample of crude oil presentedto the laboratory or test facility for analysis by this test method.Only representative samples obtained as specified in PracticesD4057 and D4177 shall be used for this
30、 test method.7.3 Test SampleThe sample aliquot obtained from thelaboratory sample for analysis by this test method. Oncedrawn, the entire portion of the test sample will be used in theanalysis. Mix the laboratory sample properly, as described in7.4, prior to drawing the test sample.7.4 Homogenize th
31、e laboratory sample of crude oil imme-diately (within 15 min) before drawing the test sample toensure complete homogeneity. Mix the sample at room tem-perature (15 to 25C), or less, in the laboratory samplecontainer, and record the temperature of the sample in degreesCelsius immediately before mixin
32、g. Heat waxy samples, solidat room temperature, to 3C above their pour point in order tofacilitate test sample withdrawal. Select the type of mixerrelated to the quantity of crude oil in the laboratory samplecontainer. Before any unknown mixer is used, the specifica-tions for the homogenization test
33、 (see Annex A1) shall be met.Reevaluate the mixer for any changes in the type of crude, thequantity of crude, the shape of the sample container, or themixing conditions (such as mixing speed and time of mixing).7.5 For small laboratory sample containers and volumes, 50to 500 mL, a nonaerating, high
34、speed (3000 r/min), shear mixeris required. Use the mixing time, mixing speed, and heightabove the bottom of the container found to be satisfactory toAnnex A1. For larger containers and volumes, appropriatemixing conditions shall be defined by following a set ofprocedures similar to those outlined i
35、n Annex A1 and PracticeD4177 but modified for application to the larger containers andvolumes. Clean and dry the mixer between samples.7.6 Record the temperature of the sample immediately afterhomogenization. The rise in temperature between this readingand the initial reading prior to mixing (see 7.
36、4) shall not exceed10C, otherwise excessive loss of volatile vapors can occur orthe dispersion can become unstable.7.7 In order to ensure that crude oils with rapidly settlingimpurities are properly sampled, withdraw the test samplecontainer immediately after homogenization by lowering thetip of the
37、 sample tube (see 5.3) almost to the bottom of thecontainer, and withdrawing the test sample as quickly aspossible. Clean and dry the sample tube before and aftersampling.8. Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Extraction ApparatusTo reduce the risk of superheat-ing and the resulting hazards, introduce a gen
38、tle stream of airinto the bottom of the extraction apparatus. This can be done bypassing a length of hypodermic tubing through the bore of thetap so that the lower end reaches the bottom of the heatingtube, while the upper end of the tubing is passed through arubber bung in the top of the thistle tu
39、be. Place the extractionapparatus behind a safety screen. Shield all electrical resis-tances and devices; alternatively, remove them from theimmediate vicinity of the extraction apparatus.8.2 Potentiometric Titration Equipment:8.2.1 Glass ElectrodeBefore each titration (or each seriesof titrations),
40、 rinse the electrode with water and soak it for atleast 10 min in 0.1 mol/L hydrochloric acid (see 6.6). Thenrinse again with water. After titrations store the electrodeimmersed in reagent water.8.2.2 Silver ElectrodePolish the silver electrode beforeeach set of titrations with polishing paper (see
41、6.13) until aclean, polished metal surface is obtained.9. Procedure9.1 Extraction:9.1.1 Weigh about 40 g of sample, to the nearest 0.1 g, intoa 250 mL beaker and heat on a water bath or in an oven to 656 5C. Heat 40 6 1 mL of xylene to the same temperature andadd slowly to the sample while stirring
42、constantly untildissolution is complete. Transfer the solution quantitatively toD6470 99 (2010)3the extraction apparatus, rinsing the beaker with two separateportions of 15 6 1 mL of hot xylene and adding these rinsingsalso to the extraction apparatus.9.1.2 While the solution is still hot, add 25 6
43、1mLofethanol or isopropyl alcohol and 15 6 1 mL of acetone, usingthese portions for further rinsing of the beaker. Switch on theheating element of the extraction apparatus to full heat untilboiling begins, then adjust the rheostat to regulate the heat tomaintain boiling at a vigorous rate, but not a
44、t such a rate tocause bumping in the flask or to cause the condenser to flood.Allow to reflux for 2 min after the liquid starts boiling (see8.1). Switch off the heater. When boiling ceases, add 125 6 1mL of water and again bring the liquid to the boil and reflux fora further 15 min.9.1.3 Switch off
45、the heater, and allow the two phases toseparate for 5 to 10 min. Draw off the aqueous phase, filteringthrough a filter paper into a conical flask of suitable capacity,stopper the flask, and retain the contents for the total halidedetermination as described in 9.2 and 9.3.9.2 Removal of Sulfur-Contai
46、ning CompoundsPipet 50.0mL of the aqueous extract (see 9.1.3) into a beaker, and add 5mL of 5 mol/L nitric acid (see 6.7). Cover the beaker with awatch-glass, and bring the contents to the boil. Test the vaporsperiodically for hydrogen sulfide with lead acetate paper andcontinue boiling for a furthe
47、r 5 min after a negative result hasbeen obtained. Allow the contents of the beaker to cool andquantitatively transfer to a 250-mL titration vessel, rinsing thebeaker with water. (WarningHydrogen sulfide presents ahealth risk if incorrectly handled. Avoid inhalation. Extractescaping gas by working in
48、 a fume cupboard.)9.3 Salt Determination:9.3.1 Pipet 10.0 mL of the 1 mmol/L sodium chloridesolution (see 6.10; see Note 2) in the titration vessel (see 9.2).Adjust the volume of the sample solution in the vessel to 150mL with acetone (see Note 3). Add approximately 0.5 g ofbarium nitrate crystals.
49、Stir to dissolve the barium nitrate.NOTE 2To obtain a titration end point even for small amounts ofchloride, a fixed amount of sodium chloride is added to the blank andsample solution.NOTE 3Acetone is added to lower the solubility of the silver chlorideprecipitate.9.3.2 Fill the burette with 0.01 mol/L silver nitrate solution,place the beaker on a magnetic stirrer, and immerse theelectrodes in the sample solution. Immerse the tip of the buretteapproximately 25 mm below the liquid surface, and adjust themagnetic stirrer to produce vigorous stirring witho
