Summary of Test Method4.1 A sample of the chemical compound or mixture is placed in a glass or metal tube that is heated to a te

17、st temperature ofinterest. The sample temperature and heat flow or the difference between the sample temperature and the temperature of an inertreference material, are monitored over a 2-h120-min period or until an exothermic reaction is recorded. Test temperatures aredecreased in 10 C 10C intervals

18、 until no exothermic reaction is observed in the 2-h120-min test period. The ConstantTemperature Stability is determined and reported using either Method A or Method B.NOTE 2Test periods other than two 2 h120-min periods may be used but shall be reported.NOTE 3The processing times in many industrial

19、 scale unit operations (for example, drying, distillations, and the like) normally significantly exceedthe 2 h 120-min time period in this CTS test procedure. Therefore, for the effective application of the CTS data for industrial scale operations, the CTStime must be extended to be greater than the

20、 processing time in the actual operation.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is a useful adjunct to dynamic thermal tests that are performed under conditions in which the sampletemperature is increased continuously at a programmed rate. Results obtained under dynamic test conditions present

21、difficulties indetermining the temperature at which an exotherm initiates because onset temperature is dependent on heating rate. The testmethod described in the present standard attempts to determine the onset temperature under isothermal conditions where theheating rate is zero.6. Apparatus6.1 The

22、 design and complexity of the apparatus required for this method depends upon the size of the sample to be used. Ingeneral, observance of an exothermic reaction in small samples (less than 50 mg) is best done using differential thermal analysisor differential scanning calorimetry equipment and techn

23、iques. Larger samples (up to 2 g) may be tested using a Kuhner MicroCTS apparatus.6.2 The following items are required to obtain the appropriate experimental data:6.2.1 A test chamber composed of:6.2.1.1 Furnace(s), to provide uniform controlled heating of a specimen and reference to a constant temp

24、erature.6.2.1.2 Temperature Sensor, to provide an indication of the specimen/furnace temperature to 60.1C.6.2.1.3 Differential Sensor, to detect a difference in heat flow or temperature between specimen and reference specimenequivalent to 1 mW or 40 mK.NOTE 4Sample temperature may be measured either

25、 absolutely or differentially. When differential temperature measurements are made, and areference material is used, the reference material should match the physical state and heat capacity of the sample as closely as practical. Typical referencematerials are calcined aluminum oxide, glass beads, si

26、licone oils, and a combination of these.NOTE 5Commercially available differential thermal analysis or differential scanning calorimetry apparatus capable of operating in an isothermal modemay be used. Alternatively, the apparatus may be assembled or fabricated from commercially available components

27、(see 12.1).6.2.2 A temperature Controller capable of heating from ambient to 400C at a rate of up1C/min to 50C/min and maintainingan isothermal temperature constant within that range to 61C for 120 min.6.2.3 AData Collection Device, to provide a means of acquiring, storing, and displaying measured o

28、r calculated signals, or both.The minimum output signals required for differential scanning calorimetry are heat flow, temperature and time.6.2.4 Containers (pans, crucibles, vials, test tubes, etc.) which are inert to the specimen and reference material and which areof suitable structure, shape, an

29、d integrity to contain the specimen and reference in accordance with the temperature and specimenmass requirements described in this section.6.3 A Balance with a capacity of 100 mg or more to weigh specimens and/or containers (pans, crucibles, vials, and the like)to 60.1 mg (see Note 6).7. Hazards7.

30、1 Dynamic thermal tests are normally carried out on small samples before the present test is undertaken. Therefore, theexperimenter should have some knowledge of the magnitude of hazard associated with the material. Larger samples should be usedonly after due consideration is given to the potential

31、for hazardous reaction. Thermodynamic calculations also can be used todetermine the potential hazard.7.2 Special precautions should be taken to protect personnel and equipment when the apparatus in use requires the insertion ofsamples into a heated block or furnace. These should include adequate shi

32、elding and ventilation of equipment, and face and handprotection.8. Sampling8.1 Specimens should be representative of the material being studied and should be prepared to achieve good thermal contactbetween the sample and container.E487 1428.2 Specimen size depends upon the sensitivity of the availa

33、ble apparatus (see 12.1).NOTE 6Specimen size of 47 mg is typically used in thermal analysis apparatus. The Kuhner Micro CTS uses up to 2 g of sample. For test specimensize greater than 1 g, record mass to 60.1 g.8.3 Specimens may be run in an unconfined or in a sealed specimen container, depending u

34、pon which condition has the morerelevance for the end use of the data.8.4 In selecting the material of construction of the specimen container, consideration should be given to possible interaction withthe specimen.9. Calibration9.1 Apparatus temperature calibration shall be performed according to Pr

35、actice E967 at a heating rate of 1 C/min.1C/min.9.2 Apparatus heat flow calibration shall be performed according to Practice E968 for differential scanning calorimeters.Differential thermal and Kuhner Micro CTS apparatus shall be calibrated according to the manufacturers instructions.9.3 Apparatus e

36、lapsed time shall be calibrated according to Test Method E1860.10. Procedure10.1 Bring the sample holder of the apparatus to a temperature 10 C 10C below that approximated as the onset temperaturein a previous differential thermal analysis measurement. Maintain control at the set temperature at no m

37、ore than 61 C.61C.NOTE 7The onset temperature may be determined using Practice E537.10.2 Place the samples and containers in the heated sample holder at the control temperature. Note the starting time as the timeof sample insertion and begin a temperature record versus time immediately.NOTE 8If the

38、test apparatus allows the sample to be brought to the test temperature in less than 10 min with not more than 1C overshoot, then placethe sample and reference in the heating unit at ambient temperature.10.3 Maintain the sample temperature for 2 h120 min or until an exothermic reaction is observed. R

39、eaction is indicated by anexothermic heat flow, departure of the temperature trace from the set heater temperature or from the reference temperaturedepending on the type apparatus used. The reaction is exothermic if it results in a measurable increase in sample temperature.Record the isothermal test

40、 temperature and the time interval from the start of the experiment to occurrence of an exotherm asmeasured by the first-deviation-from baseline.NOTE 9Other test periods may be used but shall be reported.10.4 When an exothermic reaction is observed, decrease the experimental temperature by 10C, and

41、repeat the experiment witha new sample. Follow the procedure until no exothermic reaction is observed in a 2-h120-min period.10.5 Repeat 10.4 using a sample twice as large as that used in the initial determinations. If a significant change in time ortemperature is noted repeat by again doubling the

42、sample size.10.6 Arectilinear plot of temperature versus time using the values obtained in 10.4 and 10.5 is helpful in minimizing the numberof tests required and in predicting the limiting CTS value.11. Calculations11.1 Method A:11.1.1 Report the highest temperature at which the first-deviation-from

43、-baseline (taken to be the indication of a exothermicreaction) is observed at more than 120 min. Report this value as CTS (Method A) = yy C yyC at 120 min.NOTE 10The first-deviation-from-baseline is determined on a scale that permits the peak of the exotherm to be displayed.11.2 Method B:11.2.1 Crea

44、te a rectilinear plot of the temperature versus time for the first-deviation-from-baseline (taken to be the indicationof an exothermic reaction) using the values obtained in 10.4 and 10.5. Using this plot interpolate the time axis to 120 min anddetermine the corresponding temperature. Report this va

45、lue as CTS (Method B = xx C xxC at 120 min.12.

48、s14.1 Precision:14.1.1 An interlaboratory test program was conducted in 2003 in which 13 laboratories, using 7 instrument models supplied by4 vendors examined the Constant Temperature Stability of 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole-5-thiol, known to decomposed autocatalytical-lyautocatalytically.3.14.1.2 Within

49、laboratory variability may be described using the repeatability value (r) obtained by multiplying the repeatabilitystandard deviation by 2.8. The repeatability value estimates the 95 % confidence limits, That is, two results obtained in the samelaboratory, using the same apparatus by the same operator should be considered suspect (at the 95 % confidence level) if they differby more than the repeatability value r.14.1.3 For MethodA, within laboratory precision is defined by 10.4 of this test method requiring that the test specimen be
