Summary of Test Method4.1 For existent inorganic sulfate and chloride, a small volume of a sample is evaporated to dry

17、ness and reconstituted to theinitial sample volume with deionized water, and injected into an ion chromatograph consisting of appropriate ion exchangecolumns, suppressor and a conductivity detector. For potential sulfate, a small volume of a sample is evaporated to dryness andreconstituted to the in

18、itial sample volume with 0.90 % hydrogen peroxide solution in water, and injected into an ionchromatograph. Ions are separated based on their affinity for exchange sites of the resin with respect to the resins affinity for theeluent. The suppressor increases the sensitivity of the method by both inc

19、reasing the conductivity of the analytes and decreasingthe conductivity of the eluent. The suppressor converts the eluent and the analytes to the corresponding hydrogen form acids.Anions in the aqueous sample are quantified by integration of their responses compared with an external calibration curv

20、e,calculated as mg/L for each ion. The calibration standards are prepared from suitable salts dissolved in water solutions. Existentor potential inorganic sulfate and chloride concentrations may be calculated as mg/kg by measuring the density of the originalsample.4.2 Similar methods for chloride an

21、d sulfate determinations can be found in Test Method D5827 for engine coolant, and forethanol in ISO/CEN15492, Test Method D7319 by ion chromatography with direct sample injection, and for sulfate only in TestMethod D7318 by potentiometric lead titration.5. Significance and Use5.1 Sulfates and chlor

22、ides may be found in filter plugging deposits and fuel injector deposits. The acceptability for use of thefuel components and the finished fuels depends on the sulfate and chloride content.5.2 Existent and potential inorganic sulfate and total chloride content, as measured by this test method, can b

23、e used as onemeasure of the acceptability of gasoline components for automotive spark-ignition engine fuel use.6. Interferences6.1 Interferences can be caused by substances with similar ion chromatographic retention times, especially if they are in highconcentration compared to the analyte of intere

24、st. Sample dilution or standard addition can be used to minimize or resolve mostinterference problems.6.2 A water dip (system void, negative peak as shown in Fig. 1) may cause interference with some integrators. Usually, forchloride and sulfate determinations, the water dip should not be a problem s

25、ince the chloride and sulfate peaks are far enough awayfrom the water dip.FIG. 1 Typical Ion Chromatogram of a Solution Containing 1 mg/kg of Various Anions in WaterD7328 1626.3 Given the trace amounts of chloride and sulfate determined by this method, interferences can be caused by contaminationof

26、glassware, eluents, reagents, etc. Great care must be taken to ensure that contamination is kept at the lowest possible levels.
