2、the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This test method has been adopted for use by government age
3、ncies to replace Method 5202 of Federal Test Method No. 791b1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of sulfur inpetroleum products, including lubricating oils containing addi-tives, additive concentrates, and lubricating greases that cannotbe burned completely in a wick lamp. The test
4、 method isapplicable to any petroleum product sufficiently low in vola-tility that it can be weighed accurately in an open sample boatand containing at least 0.1 % sulfur.NOTE 1This test method is not applicable to samples containingelements that give residues, other than barium sulfate, which are i
5、nsolublein dilute hydrochloric acid and would interfere in the precipitation step.These interfering elements include iron, aluminum, calcium, silicon, andlead which are sometimes present in greases, lube oil additives, or additiveoils. Other acid insoluble materials that interfere are silica, molybd
6、enumdisulfide, asbestos, mica, and so forth. The test method is not applicable toused oils containing wear metals, and lead or silicates from contamination.Samples that are excluded can be analyzed by Test Method D 1552.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any,
7、 associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

9、ombustion Bombs3. Summary of Test Method3.1 The sample is oxidized by combustion in a bombcontaining oxygen under pressure. The sulfur, as sulfate in thebomb washings, is determined gravimetrically as barium sul-fate.3.2 WarningStrict adherence to all of the provisionsprescribed hereafter ensures ag

Apparatus and Materials4.1 Bomb,3,4having a capacity of not less than 300 mL, soconstructed that it will not leak during the test and thatquantitative recovery of the liquids from the bomb may beachieved readily. The inner surface of the bomb may be madeof stainless steel or any other ma
12、terial that will not be affectedby the combustion process or products. Materials used in thebomb assembly, such as the head gasket and lead-wire insula-tion, shall be resistant to heat and chemical action, and shall notundergo any reaction that will affect the sulfur content of theliquid in the bomb

QUALITY CONTROLX1.1 Confirm the performance of the instrument or the
14、 testprocedure by analyzing a quality control (QC) sample.X1.2 Prior to monitoring the measurement process, the userof the test method needs to determine the average value andcontrol limits of the QC sample (see Practice D 6299 and MNL7).11X1.3 Record the QC results and analyze by control chartsor o
15、ther statistically equivalent techniques to ascertain thestatistical control status of the total testing process (see PracticeD 6299 and MNL 7). Any out-of-control data should triggerinvestigation for root cause(s).X1.4 In the absence of explicit requirements given in thetest method, the frequency o
16、f QC testing is dependent on thecriticality of the quality being measured, the demonstratedstability of the testing process, and customer requirements.Generally, a QC sample is analyzed each testing day withroutine samples. The QC frequency should be increased if alarge number of samples are routine
17、ly analyzed. However,when it is demonstrated that the testing is under statisticalcontrol, the QC testing frequency may be reduced. The QCsample precision should be checked against the ASTM methodprecision to ensure data quality.X1.5 It is recommended that, if possible, the type of QCsample that is
18、regularly tested be representative of the materialroutinely analyzed. An ample supply of QC sample materialshould be available for the intended period of use, and must behomogenous and stable under the anticipated storage condi-tions.
