17、nd the snake tube test methods.9. Summary of Test Method9.1 Aweighed sample of acid is diluted in water and titratedwith standardized 0.5 meq/mL(N) sodium hydroxide solution,using phenolphthalein as the indicator.10. Interferences10.1 Acids other than sulfuric and compounds that consumesodium hydrox

18、ide will affect the accuracy of this test method.11. Apparatus11.1 Dely Tube (Fig. 1) or Snake Tube (Fig. 2).411.2 Buret, 100-mL, Class A, bulb-type.12. Reagents12.1 Phenolphthalein Indicator Solution (10 g/L)Dissolve1gofphenolphthalein in 100 mL of ethanol (95 %),methanol, or isopropanol.512.2 Sodi

19、um Hydroxide, Standard Solution (0.5 meq/mL(N)See Practice E 200.13. Procedure13.1 Dely Tube Test MethodInvert the sample bottleseveral times. (Hold the stopper in tight.) Insert the long arm ofa dry, weighed Dely tube and withdraw by suction a convenientsize sample depending upon the acid strength

20、as given in Table1 (Note 1). Invert the Dely tube and wipe the acid from thelong arm with disposable tissue several layers thick. Discardthe tissue immediately to avoid burning the fingers. Reweigh tothe nearest 0.0001 g and record the weight of the sample.Incline the tube so that the acid runs back

21、 nearly to the bend ofthe short arm. Attach the short arm to an elevated waterreservoir by means of a rubber tube closed near the lower endwith a pinch clamp. Insert the long arm of the Dely tube into400-mL glass beaker containing approximately 100 mL ofwater. Open the pinch clamp and flush the samp

22、le into thebeaker. Continue the flow of water until all acid is washed fromthe Dely Tube (Note 2 and Note 3). Wash the long end of theDely tube, collecting the washings in the beaker. Add 3 to 5drops of phenolphthalein indicator solution. Record the tem-perature of the 0.5 meq/mL(N) NaOH solution, a

23、nd then titratethe sample to a pink end point. Record the titration to thenearest 0.02 mL.NOTE 1The Dely tube can be marked at points equivalent to weightsgiven in Table 1.4The sole source of supply of the Suitable Dely and snake tubes known to thecommittee at this time is Corning Glass Works, Corni

24、ng, NY. If you are aware ofalternative suppliers, please provide this information to ASTM InternationalHeadquarters. Your comments will receive careful consideration at a meeting of theresponsible technical committee,1which you may attend.5This reagent is also described in Practice E 200.FIG. 1 Dely

26、phthalein indicator and theminimum amount of dilute NaOH solution that will produce a slight pink.The water flowing through the tube is dicolorized as long as acid ispresent, and the appearance of a pink color indicates the absence of acid.NOTE 3The acid and water are separated by a bubble of air.13

27、.2 Snake Tube Test MethodInvert the sample bottleseveral times. (Hold the stopper in tight). Insert the capillaryend of a dry, weighed snake tube and withdraw by suction aconvenient size sample depending upon the acid strength asgiven in Table 1. Invert the tube so that the double bend is ina horizo

28、ntal position. Wipe the acid from the capillary withdisposable tissue several layers thick. Discard the tissueimmediately to avoid burning the fingers. Reweigh to thenearest 0.0001 g and record the weight of the sample. Sub-merge the capillary of the tube in approximately 100 mL ofwater contained in

29、 the 400-mL beaker. Force the weighedsample from the tube by a stream of water from a wash bottleby placing the delivery tip in the exposed end of the snake tube(Note 4). Wash the tube with 50 to 70 mLof water. Remove thetube and wash the outside free of acid. Swirl the contents of thebeaker gently

30、while washing. Accumulate all washings in thebeaker and add 3 to 5 drops of phenolphthalein indicatorsolution. Record the temperature of the 0.5 meq/mL(N) NaOHsolution, and then titrate the sample to a pink end point. Recordthe titration to the nearest 0.02 mL.NOTE 4Do not introduce the water into t

31、he snake tube too rapidly, asthis will cause spattering.14. Calculation14.1 If necessary, correct the buret reading for calibrationerrors and record the volume of titrant as V and the temperatureas t.14.2 Correct the normality of the sodium hydroxide stan-dard solution for any difference in temperat

Precision and Bias16.1 The following criteria should be used for judging theacceptability of results (see Note 5):16.1.1 Repeatability (Single Anal

35、yst)The standard devia-tion for a single determination has been estimated to be0.069 % mass (m/m) absolute at 56 df. The 95 % limit for thedifference between two such runs is 0.19 % mass (m/m)absolute.16.1.2 Laboratory Precision (Within-Laboratory, Between-Days VariabilityThe standard deviation of r

36、esults (each theaverage of duplicates), obtained by the same analyst ondifferent days, has been estimated to be 0.104 % mass (m/m)absolute at 28 df. The 95 % limit for the difference betweentwo such averages is 0.29 % mass (m/m) absolute.16.1.3 Reproducibility (Multilaboratory)The standard de-viatio

37、n of results (each the average of duplicates), obtained byanalysts in different laboratories, has been estimated to be0.124 % mass (m/m) absolute at 7 df. The 95 % limit for thedifference between two such averages is 0.35 % mass (m/m)absolute.NOTE 5These precision estimates are based on an interlabo

38、ratorystudy of analyses performed in 1963 on three samples containingapproximately 80, 90, and 95 % mass (m/m) sulfuric acid. One analyst ineach of ten laboratories performed duplicate determinations and repeatedone day later, for a total of 120 determinations.6Practice E 180 was usedin developing t

39、hese precision estimates.16.2 Since there is no accepted reference material fordetermining the bias for measuring the total acidity of sulfuricacid, the bias of this test method has not been determined.BAUM GRAVITY17.
