Agencies that meet the criteria of Specification D3666 are generally considered capableof competent and objective testing, sampling, inspection, etc. Users of this standard are cautioned that compliance with Specification D3666 alone doesnot completely ensure reliable results. Reliable

18、results depend on many factors; following the suggestions of Specification D3666 or some similaracceptable guideline provides a means of evaluating and controlling some of those factors.5.

If the sample is hot when put into the crucible, place the crucible with the sample into thedesiccator to cool for 15 min prior to recording the sample weight (W(Ws) to the nearest

23、0.001 g.NOTE 2A pre-ashing procedure may be used prior to placing the sample into the muffle furnace, if deemed necessary by the muffle furnacemanufacturer or prior testing of the sample. This requires placing the crucible onto an acceptable stand above a Bunsen burner. Adjust the height of theflame

24、 until it is just high enough to touch the crucible. Heat the sample until the sample flames, and discontinue when the flaming of the sample subsides.Using tongs, remove the crucible from the stand and place it into the muffle furnace.6.5 Place the crucible with the sample into the muffle furnace an
