Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 acidity, nfor purposes of this standard,
6、acidity isdefined as producing a persistent pink phenolphthalein endpoint with the addition of two (2) drops or more (0.1 mL) of 0.1N sodium hydroxide solution.3.1.2 acid reaction, na characteristic of materials produc-ing the acid-color of the indicator used under the conditionsprescribed in this t
7、est method.3.1.3 alkaline or basic reaction, na characteristic of thematerials producing the alkali-color of the indicator used underthe conditions prescribed in this test method.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The acidity of aromatic hydrocarbons is detected usinga sodium hydroxide titration and a col
8、or change using aphenolphthalein indicator.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is suitable for setting specifications, foruse as an internal quality control tool, and for use in develop-ment or research work on industrial aromatic hydrocarbons andrelated materials. This test method gives an
9、indication ofresidual acidity and is a measure of the quality of the finishedproduct. It is an indication of the tendency of the product tocorrode equipment.6. Interferences6.1 Tests for acidity are not applicable in the presence ofcontaminating acidic or alkaline gases, soaps, salts, or othercompou
10、nds derived from the atmosphere or apparatus. Thecontainer holding the specimen, and the apparatus, water,indicator, and other materials used in the test shall be chosen sothat they themselves shall not appreciably affect the results.Since new corks used in specimen bottles often are bleachedwith ox
11、alic acid, it is advisable to rinse them thoroughly andcheck them for neutrality with the indicator used in the test.Glassware shall be of acid-resistant and alkali-resistant glass4and shall be rinsed with neutral distilled water before use. Theroom in which the test is performed shall be chosen so
12、as toprevent undue contamination by carbon dioxide, ammonia, orother interfering substances that may be present in the atmo-sphere.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D16 onAromatic Hydrocarbons and Related Chemicals and is the direct responsibility ofSubcommittee D16.01 on

16、stilled water used in the test shall not alter thecomposition of the specimen nor otherwise interfere with thepurpose of the work. Although inert impurities often may beneglected, care must be exercised to correct for impurities or toeliminate them entirely if they are likely to interfere. When thed
17、istilled water does not show an acid or alkaline reaction, itmay be used without further adjustment to neutrality. However,if the water shows an acid or alkaline reaction, it shall bebrought to a persistent pink end point before use by titrationwith standard 0.01 N NaOH solution (see 8.4) or standar

Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commi
19、t-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.5Other grades may beused, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is ofsufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening theaccuracy of the determination.8.2 Phenolphthalein Ind
20、icator SolutionDissolve 0.5 g ofphenolphthalein in 100 mL of ethyl alcohol (95 %). Add 0.01N NaOH solution cautiously until a faint pink color appears;then just remove the color with a drop or two of 0.01 N acid.8.3 Sodium Hydroxide, Standard Solution (0.1 N).8.4 Sodium Hydroxide, Standard Solution
21、(0.01 N).8.5 Sulfuric Acid, Standard (0.01 N).8.6 Purity of Water: Distilled Water, NeutralBoil vigor-ously for 30 min, 1 to 2 L of distilled water conforming to TypeIII of Specification D1193. Insert a stopper carrying a guardtube of soda lime. Rinse a 200-mL flask with this distilledwater, add a 1
22、00-mLportion, and titrate in a closed system with0.01 N NaOH solution: or heat to boiling and titrateimmediately, taking care that the temperature does not fallbelow 80C during the titration. If more than 1 drop (0.05 mL)of 0.01 N NaOH solution is required to obtain an end pointwith phenolphthalein,
23、 adjust the pH of the water to be used byadding the calculated amount of NaOH solution. Repeat theblank titration, and readjust if necessary until the blank titrationon 100 mL of the distilled water is 1 drop (0.05 mL) or less ofthe 0.01 N NaOH solution. The distilled water now will beneutral or ver

Without separating the layers, titrate the acidity, if any,with standard 0.1 N NaOH to the first persistent shade of pink,shake thoroughly after eac
26、h addition. Record Pass if 2 drops orless of 0.1 N NaOH solution produces a persistent pink endpoint. If more than 2 drops are required to produce a persistentpink end point, record Fail.12. Interpretation of Results12.1 Unless otherwise indicated in the applicablespecifications, the test results sh
27、all be interpreted as follows:12.1.1 A specimen shall be said to pass and to contain nofree acid, that is, show no evidence of acidity, if 2 drops or lessof 0.1 N NaOH solution produces a persistent pink end point inthe test bottle.13.
