9、TION WITH INFRARED ABSORPTIONDETECTION PROCEDURES4. Summary of Test Method4.1 In this test method, a sample of feedstock oil is weighedin a combustion boat containing either a tungsten oxide basedaccelerator, sand or aluminum oxide absorbent, and the sulfurcontent is determined by placing the boat i
10、n a tube furnace at1350C in an air or oxygen-enriched atmosphere resulting incomplete combustion. Sulfur in the sample is completelyoxidized to sulfur dioxide. Moisture and particulates areremoved from the gas stream by traps filled with anhydrousmagnesium perchlorate. The gas stream is then passed
11、througha cell in which sulfur dioxide concentration is measured by aninfrared (IR) absorption detector at a precise wavelength in theIR spectrum. The IR absorption detects sulfur dioxide through-out the entire combustion process. The integral of the detectorsignal is the basis for the total sulfur c
12、ontent of a sample.4.2 This test method is for use with commercially availablesulfur analyzers equipped to carry out the combustion andmeasurement operations automatically.4.3 The sulfur analyzer shall be calibrated using appropriatecalibration standards (see 6.7).4.4 The instrument may be configure
13、d to analyze more thanone element such as a carbon-sulfur analyzer. In this case, theanalyzer has individual detectors for each element that arearranged in series.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D24 on CarbonBlack and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D24.66

35、ls.12.2 The precision results in this precision and bias sectiongive an estimate of the precision of this test method with thematerials used in the particular interlaboratory program de-scribed below. The precision parameters should not be used foracceptance or rejection testing of any group of mate
36、rialswithout documentation that they are applicable to those par-ticular materials and the specific testing protocols of the testmethod. Any appropriate value may be used from Table 1 forthe High Temperature Combustion Method A. An alternatecombustion method for carbon content, CHNS, was included in
37、the interlaboratory program used to generate this precisionstatement since a few labs use this instrumental method.Precision data specific to the CHNS method is found in Table2.12.3 A type 1 inter-laboratory precision program was con-ducted. Both repeatability and reproducibility represent short-ter
38、m (daily) testing conditions. The testing was performed ineach laboratory performing the test twice on each of two days(total of four tests). A test result is the value obtained from asingle determination. Acceptable difference values were notmeasured.12.4 The results of the precision calculations f
39、or this test aregiven in Table 1 for the High Temperature Combustion MethodA. The materials are arranged in ascending “mean level” order.12.5 RepeatabilityThe pooled relative repeatability, (r), ofthis test has been established as 5.72 %. Any other value inTable 1 may be used as an estimate of repea
40、tability, asappropriate. The difference between two single test results (ordeterminations) found on identical test material under therepeatability conditions prescribed for this test will exceed therepeatability on an average of not more than once in 20 casesin the normal and correct operation of th
41、e method. Two singletest results that differ by more than the appropriate value fromTable 1 must be suspected of being from different populationsand some appropriate action taken.NOTE 3Appropriate action may be an investigation of the test methodprocedure or apparatus for faulty operation or the dec
42、laration of asignificant difference in the two materials, samples, etc., which generatedthe two test results.12.6 ReproducibilityThe pooled relative reproducibility,(R) of this test has been established as 11.85 %. Any othervalue in Table 1 may be used as an estimate of reproducibility,as appropriat
43、e. The difference between two single and inde-pendent test results found by operators working under theprescribed reproducibility conditions in different laboratorieson identical test material will exceed the reproducibility on anaverage of not more than once in 20 cases in the normal andcorrect ope
44、ration of the method. Two single test resultsproduced in different laboratories that differ by more than theappropriate value from Table 1 must be suspected of beingfrom different populations and some appropriate investigativeaction taken.5A research report is pending.TABLE 1 Precision Parameters fo
