BS 1957, Presentation of numerical values (fineness of expression; rounding of numbers). During recent yea

12、rs, lac has been studied internationally through the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), by various Research Institutions and Trade Organizations in different parts of the world. It has been decided to split the subject matter of BS954, the previous British Standard for all types o

13、f lac other than bleached lac, into three parts, covering seedlac, hand-made shellac and machine-made shellac, and to publish these as separate documents. Advantage has been taken of the work done at the ISO level, and the Committee responsible for the preparation of this standard desires to acknowl

14、edge its indebtedness to the sources of information thus utilized. The usual trade descriptions of the various grades of seedlac, as recognized in the United Kingdom, have been used throughout. These trade descriptions are well known internationally, and are recognized standards of the London Shella

15、c Trade Association. An attempt has been made, however, to correlate these with the designations of the Recommendations of the International Organization for Standardization: the approximate correspondence for seedlac is as follows: The mandatory requirements included in this specification are those

16、 for appearance and colour, volatile matter (moisture) and matter insoluble in hot alcohol, and methods of test are given for these. Also included are optional clauses and methods of test, operative only by agreement between purchaser and vendor, for colour index, matter soluble in water, non-volati

17、le matter soluble in cold alcohol, and wax. It will be noted that no requirements have been given for a “bleach test” or “bleachability” or for the absence of visible impurities. In the opinion of the Committee, work is not yet in a sufficiently advanced state to allow of the former, and visible imp

18、urities are effectively limited by the provisions of Clauses2 and 5. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immun

19、ity from legal obligations.

21、ed by washing crushed sticklac, the natural product of the lac insect (Laccifer lacca). Unless otherwise agreed between purchaser and vendor, the seedlac shall be of Indian origin and shall be of the crop implied by the grade name employed. Six grades are specified, as follows: Golden Kusmi Kusmi No

22、. 1 Kusmi No. 2 Golden Bysacki Fine Bysacki Ordinary Bysacki 2 Description The form and condition of the material shall be as agreed between purchaser and vendor. The appearance and colour of the material shall be not inferior to those of an agreed sample, when judged by visual examination. 3 Sample

23、 For the purpose of examination under this specification samples shall be drawn, parted and prepared in the manner described inAppendix A. Only original unopened packages of shellac shall be sampled. Not less than10 per cent of the packages, selected at random from each lot of not more than200packag

24、es, shall be sampled. 4 Volatile matter The material shall not yield more than2.5per cent by weight of volatile matter when tested in the manner described inAppendix B. 5 Matter insoluble in hot alcohol The material shall not contain more than the following specified limits of matter insoluble in ho

25、t alcohol, when tested in the manner described inAppendix C. By agreement between purchaser and vendor this limit may be relaxed but under no circumstances shall it exceed the relaxed limit. 6 Expression of analytical results The results of analyses performed in accordance with the appendices to thi

26、s standard shall be expressed to the number of significant figures indicated in the specification requirements. The principles embodied in BS1957, “Presentation of numerical values (fineness of expression; rounding of numbers)”, apply to such results. Optional clauses 7 Colour index When agreed betw

27、een purchaser and vendor, the colour index of the material shall not exceed the following limits when determined in the manner described inAppendix D: 8 Matter soluble in water When agreed between purchaser and vendor, the material shall not contain more than1.0per cent by weight of matter soluble i

31、i 87.0 BS3279:1960 BSI 12-1999 3 Appendix A Sampling Drawing of samples Free-flowing seedlac. Take samples from different places in each package by means of a suitable tryer so as to yield a total of5kg (or 10lb) of material consisting of approximately equal portions from each package sampled. Thoro

32、ughly mix the material and heap and quarter along two diameters which intersect at right angles. Mix two opposite quarters and preserve in air-tight containers, seal and label as the “Original observation sample”. If necessary, further sub-divide by quartering to form a number of original observatio

33、n samples. Part the other two quarters of the material as described below to form the analysis sample. Blocky or matted seedlac. Take small pieces not more than1.2 in (3cm) across from different places in each package by chipping or other suitable means so as to yield a total of5kg (or10lb) of mater

34、ial consisting of approximately equal portions from each package sampled. Thoroughly mix the material and heap and quarter along two diameters which intersect at right angles. Mix two opposite quarters and preserve in air-tight containers, seal and label as the “Original observation sample”. If nece

35、ssary, further sub-divide by quartering to form a number of original observation samples. Part the other two quarters of the material as described below to form the analysis sample. Preparation of samples Thoroughly mix the material obtained above, and heap and quarter along two diameters which inte

36、rsect at right angles. Mix two opposite quarters and grind the mixture to pass entirely through an 8mesh BS test sieve 1) . Thoroughly mix and twice divide by quartering into four samples, each of approximately300g (or11oz). Place these samples in air-tight containers, seal and label each as “Analys

37、is sample”. a) Sample for determination of volatile matter. Grind an adequate amount (40to50g) of the “Analysis sample” to pass entirely through an18mesh BS test sieve 1) , taking all precautions to avoid loss of volatile matter. Place in an air-tight container and label “Sample for volatile matter

38、determination”. b) Prepared sample for all determinations other than volatile matter. Grind an adequate amount of the “Analysis sample” to pass entirely through a36mesh BS test sieve 1) . Transfer to an air-tight container and label as “Prepared sample for all determinations other than that for vola

39、tile matter”. Appendix B Method for the determination of volatile matter Principle The volatile matter content is determined by heating a weighed portion of the sample at41 1 C for4hours and then keeping it over concentrated sulphuric acid in vacuo for18 hours. Procedure Weigh, to an accuracy of0.00

40、05g, a clean, dry, flat-bottomed dish of about75mm diameter, provided with a ground glass cover. Transfer about2g of the sample reserved for this purpose (seeAppendix A) into the dish and re-weigh to the same accuracy. Place the dish and its cover separately in a well-ventilated oven maintained at41

41、 1 C for4hours. At the end of this period, transfer the dish and cover to a vacuum desiccator containing concentrated sulphuric acid. Immediately evacuate the desiccator and continue drying in vacuo for18 hours. Remove the dish and immediately replace the cover and weigh to an accuracy of0.0005g. Ex

42、press the loss in weight as a percentage of the weight of the sample taken. Calculation 1) BS 410, “Test sieves”.

Weigh4.5 to5.5g of the prepared sample (seeAppendix A) to an accuracy of0.01g and place in the filter paper envelope, S, and fold in the original folds, taking care not to leave any channel through which finely

49、 divided material might afterwards escape. Again enclose in the paper, C, and secure with thread. Place the resulting package in a100ml beaker and cover it with alcohol. Allow to stand overnight at room temperature. Place the package in the cup of the siphon tube and extract continuously with hot alcohol for4hours. Keep the package wholly below the surface of the alcohol when the cup is full. The exact time taken for the cycle of filling and emptying the cup of the siphon tube is not critic
