1、Designation: D7476 08 (Reapproved 2013)Standard Test Method forBrine Saturation Value of Cured (Salt-Preserved) Hides andSkins1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7476; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revisio

2、n, the year 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 estimation of degree ofsaturation of the brine content of cured (salt-prese

3、rved) hidesand skins containing 40 % or more moisture.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is t

Summary of Test Method4.1 The moisture (volatile matter by oven drying) and ashcontent of a composite hide or skin sample are determined. Forpurposes of calculation the ash is assumed to be equivalent tosodium chlor

7、ide and the moisture is assumed to be equivalentto water. The percent ratio of ash to moisture is calculated. Thisratio times 100 is divided by 35.9 (which is the percent salt tomoisture ratio in a saturated sodium chloride (brine) solution at20C (68F) to estimate the percent of saturation in the br

8、inesolution in the hides or skins.NOTE 1A saturated solution of sodium chloride at 20C (68F)contains 26.4 % by weight of NaCl. Therefore, in 100 g of that saturatedsolution only 73.6 g (100 26.4 g) is contributed by water. As such on aweight basis, 100 parts by weight of water will dissolve 35.9 par

9、ts (100x 26.4)/73.6 by weight of NaCl.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is intended to evaluate whether suffi-cient salt (NaCl) has been retained by the hides or skins to slowdown degradation by bacterial (enzymatic) action, and to slowdown autolysis by inherent enzymatic action, until the

10、y arepreserved by a tanning process.NOTE 2Osmosis occurs during brine curing because moisture isdrawn out by salt through the epidermis.4Low moisture ( 40 %) in thehides does not necessarily indicate poor cure. A hide may have lowmoisture due to osmosis; to increased fat content; or to drying outcon

11、ditions. In all instances the hides would still show adequate cure if themoisture was saturated to approximately 85 % salt, because the ash:moisture ratio would be adequate.6. Apparatus6.1 Crucible, 30 to 50 mL, high-form, platinum or porce-lain. Prepare crucible by heating it for 15 min in a muffle

12、furnace set at 600 6 25C. Cool in a desiccator before use.6.2 Electric Muffle Furnace, with controller or rheostat andpyrometer, capable of maintaining a temperature of 650 625C.6.3 Desiccator, of appropriate size and charged with freshdesiccant.6.4 Analytical Balance, capable of weighing to 0.001 g

13、.6.5 Oven, forced air, capable of maintaining 100 105C.7.

16、one laboratory shall be judged not equivalent if theydiffer by more than the “r” value for that material; “r”istheinterval representing the critical difference between two testresults for the same material, obtained by the same operatorusing the same equipment on the same day in the samelaboratory.1

17、3.1.1.1 Repeatability limits are listed in Table 1, Table 2,and Table 3.13.1.2 Reproducibilty Limit (R)“ R” is the interval repre-senting the critical difference between two test results for thesame material, obtained by different operators using differentequipment in different laboratories.13.1.2.1

18、 Reproducibility limits were not addressed in thisstudy.13.1.3 The above terms (repeatability limit and reproduc-ibility limit) are used as specified in Practice E177.13.1.4 Any judgment in accordance with statements 13.1.1would normally have an approximate 95% probability of beingcorrect, however t

19、he precision statistics obtained in this ILSmust not be treated as exact mathematical quantities which areapplicable to all circumstances and uses. The limited numberof laboratories reporting results guarantees that there will betimes when differences greater than predicted by the ILSresults will ar

20、ise, sometimes with considerably greater orsmaller frequency than the 95% probability limit would imply.The repeatability limit should be considered as a general guide,and the associated probability of 95% as only a rough indicatorof what can be expected.13.2 BiasAt the time of the study, there was

21、no acceptedreference material suitable for determining the bias for this testmethod, therefore no statement on bias is being made.13.3 The precision statement was determined through sta-tistical examination of the analytical results from onelaboratory, on samples from five different material lots.13

22、.4 To judge the equivalency of two test results, it isrecommended to choose the material closest in characteristicsto the test material.14.
