The NaOH solution should be stored ina plastic bottle and stopper must be stressed.NOTE 1After standardization, the NaOH solution should not be storedin a glass container because it will be slowly neutralized from exp

Hazards8.1 Consult current federal regulations, suppliers SafetyData Sheets, and local regulations for all materials used in thistest method.9. Sampling, Test Specimens, and Test Units9.1 Use only representativ

24、e samples obtained as describedin Practice E300, unless otherwise specified.10. Preparation of Apparatus10.1 Adjust the apparatus in accordance with the manufac-turers instructions.10.2 Preparation of Electrodes:10.2.1 When theAg/AgCl reference electrode is used for thetitration and it contains an e

25、lectrolyte which is not 1M to 3MLiCl in ethanol, replace the electrolyte. Drain the electrolytefrom the electrode, wash away all the salt (if present) withwater and then rinse with ethanol. Rinse several times with theLiCl electrolyte solution. Finally, replace the sleeve and fill theelectrode with

26、the LiCl electrolyte to the filling hole. Whenrefitting the sleeve, ensure that there will be a free flow ofelectrolyte into the system. A combination electrode shall beprepared in the same manner. The electrolyte in a combinationelectrode can be removed with the aid of a vacuum suction.10.3 Testing

27、 of ElectrodesTest the meter-electrode com-bination when first put into use, or when new electrodes areinstalled, and retest at intervals thereafter. Rinse the electrodeswith solvent then with water. Dip them into a pH 4 aqueousbuffer solution. Read the mV value after stirring one minute.Remove the

28、electrodes and rinse with water. Dip the electrodesin a pH 7 aqueous buffer. Read the mV value after stirring oneminute. Calculate the mV difference. A good electrode systemwill have a difference of at least 158 mV (20 to 25C). If thedifference is less than 158 mV, lift the sleeve of the electrodean

29、d ensure electrolyte flow. Repeat the measurements. If thedifference is still less than 158 mV, clean or replace theelectrode(s).10.3.1 When the sensing electrode and the reference elec-trode are separate, one pair of electrodes shall be considered asone unit. If one or the other is changed, it shal

30、l be consideredas a different pair and shall be re-tested.10.4 Maintenance and Storage of Electrodes:10.4.1 Follow the manufacturers instructions for storageand use of the electrode.10.4.2 Prior to each titration soak the prepared electrode inwater for at least 2 min. Rinse the electrode with deioni

31、zedwater immediately before use. The glass membrane needs to berehydrated after titration on non-aqueous material.10.4.3 When not in use, immerse the lower half of thecombination electrode in LiCl electrolyte. Do not allow elec-trodes to remain immersed in a titrated sample for anyappreciable period

32、 of time between titrations. While theelectrodes are not extremely fragile, handle them carefully atall times.11.
