Extreme care should be observed during testing. 4.5.2.1.2 Anal
30、ysis procedure. The primer-f uel shall be analyzed as follows : (a) Prepare an ether standard as a 100 percent level by taking 10 ml of U.S.P. reagent grade diethyl ether and dilute l:25 with benzene or other suitable solvent and place in a stoppered 300 ml flask. Take a 10 ml portion of primer fuel
31、 from each sample unit and di- lute l:25 with solvent just prior to evaluation.

Separation of nonvolatile components shall be as follows: (a) Take a 100 ml sample of primer fuel and evaporate on a gum bath a
33、pparatus at room temperature with an air rate of 1 CU ft/min when sample is almost evaprated, increase the temperature to 212 F for 1/2 hour. Weigh residue and report in gms/100 ml. If residue is more than 1 gm/100 ml retain for the pour point test. (Note further spectrographic analysis can be perfo
34、rmed on the resi- dues for identification.) (b) (c) 4.5.2.2.1 Pour point analysis. Pour point analysis shall be conducted as follows : (a) (b) Prepare residue samples from 4.5.2.2 that exceed 1 gm/lOO ml by chilling to minus 50 F for 4 hours. Rotate each sample in its evaporation container 90 degree
35、s to its horizontal plane. Failure of the residue to flow (by visual observation) within a 10 second per- iod shall constitute failure of this test. 4.5.2.3 Moisture, solubility, and d=ite ash. The moisture, solubility, a.nd white ash test shall be performed as follows: - (a) (b) (c) Prepare a 50 mi
36、 sample of primer fuel from each test sample in a clean pre-weighed crucible. Chill for 4 hours in a cold box at minus 50 F plus or minus 5“ F. Remove the samples one at a time from the cold box and observe over a black surface for ice crystals or undissolved solids through the bottom of the beaker.
37、 Transfer the exadned 50 ml test sample to a weighed crucible; plance in a ventilated hood and ignite; allow to burn until flame is natur- ally extinguished. Transfer the crucible to a muffle furnace until “a shing“ is complete. (a) The preaence of ice crystals, undissolved solids, or more than 0.00
38、1 gms of ash shall constitute failure of this test. 9 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-O-F-LOqLtB 68 m 7777774 0007838 3 m 4.5.2.4 Leakage.

(a) Take the test units that have passed the high temperature part of this test and place in a cold box controlled at minus 50“ F plus or minus 5“ F and hold for i44 hours. Remove units one a.t a time, weigh, record,
42、 and return to the cold box for functional test. Calculate the loss of weight for each test unit and the percentage of weight loss against the specific net weight. (b) A loss greater than 2 percent of the specified net contents shall constitute failure of this test. 4.5.2.5 Functional. Test sa.mples
