Apparatus7.1 GeneralThe apparatus comprises a glass or metalstill, a heater, a reflux condenser, and a graduated glass trap.The still, trap, and condenser may be connected by any suitablemethod t
24、hat produces a leakproof joint. Preferred connectionsare ground joints for glass and O-rings for metal to glass.Typical assemblies are illustrated in Fig. 1, Fig. 2, and Fig. 3.The stills and traps should be chosen to cover the range ofmaterials and water contents expected. On assembly, care shallbe
25、 taken to prevent the joints from freezing or sticking.Alwaysapply a very thin film of stopcock grease to prevent theglassware joints from seizing.7.2 StillA glass or metal vessel with a short neck andsuitable joint for accommodating the reflux tube of the trapshall be used. Vessels of 500, 1000, an
26、d 2000-mL nominalcapacity have proved satisfactory.7.3 HeaterA suitable gas burner or electric heater may beused with the glass still. A gas ring burner with ports on theinside circumference shall be used with the metal still. The gasring burner shall be of such dimensions that it may be movedup and
27、 down the vessel when testing materials that are likely tofoam or solidify in the still.7.4 GlasswareDimensions and descriptions of typicalglassware for use in this test method are provided in Specifi-cation E 123.NOTE 3Instead of standardizing on a particular apparatus specifica-tion with respect t
28、o dimensions and style, a given apparatus will bedeemed satisfactory when accurate results are obtained by the standardTABLE 1 Type of Solvent-Carrier Liquid Versus Material to BeTestedType of Solvent-Carrier Liquid Material to be TestedAromatic asphalt, tar, coal tar, water gas tar, roadtar, cut-ba

Sampling8.1 Sampling is defined as all steps required to obt
30、ain analiquot of the contents of any pipe, tank, or other system and toplace the sample into the laboratory test container. Onlyrepresentative samples obtained as specified in PracticesD 4057 (API MPMS Chapter 8.1) and D 4177 (API MPMSChapter 8.2) shall be used for this test method.8.2 The size of t
31、he test portion should be based on theexpected water content of the sample, such that the water yielddoes not exceed the capacity of the trap (unless a trap with astopcock is used permitting excess water to be withdrawn intoa graduated cylinder).8.3 Practice D 5854 (API MPMS Chapter 8.3) containsinf
32、ormation on sampling and homogenization efficiency ofunknown mixers. This test method should not be followedwithout strict adherence to Practice D 5854 (API MPMSChapter 8.3).9. Verification9.1 The accuracy of the graduation marks on the trap shallbe certified or verified, using only national or inte
33、rnationalstandards, such as National Institute of Standards and Technol-ogy (NIST)4traceable equipment. Verification shall be with atraceable 5 mL Micro Burette or Micro Pipette, readable to thenearest 0.01 mL.9.1.1 In styles A, B, C, and D, as specified in Table 2(Table 1 in Specification E 123), e
34、ach subdivision (that is, 0.1mL through 1.0 mL) in the conical portion of the tube shall beverified. Thereafter, each major subdivision (that is, 2.0 mL,3.0 mL, 4.0 mL, and up to the total volume of the trap) shall beverified.9.1.2 In styles E and F, as specified in Table 2, each majorsubdivision (0
35、.1 mL, 1.0 mL, 2.0 mL, 4.0 mL, and 5.0 mL inthe case of Style E; 0.05 mL, 0.5 mL, 1.0 mL, 1.5 mL, and 2.0mL in the case of Style F) shall be verified.9.2 The entire glassware assembly shall be verified prior tofirst use and at a regular frequency thereafter as follows.9.2.1 Put 400 mL of dry (0.02 %
36、 water maximum) xylene orthe solvent to be utilized in the analysis of unknown samplesinto the apparatus and test in accordance with Section 10.When complete, discard the contents of the trap and add thevolume of water as specified as first test in Table 3 directly tothe distillation flask and test
37、in accordance with Section 10.9.2.2 Repeat the test in 9.2.1, and add the volume specifiedas second test in Table 3 directly to the flask. The assembly ofthe apparatus is satisfactory only if the trap readings are withinthe tolerances specified in Table 3.9.3 A reading outside the permissible limits
38、 suggests amalfunction resulting from vapor leaks, too rapid boiling,inaccuracies in calibration of the trap, or ingress of extraneousmoisture. Eliminate these factors before repeating the verifica-tion.10. ProcedureNOTE 4The precision of this test method will be affected by waterdroplets adhering t
39、o surfaces in the apparatus and therefore not settlinginto the water trap to be measured. To minimize the problem, all apparatusmust be cleaned chemically at least daily to remove surface films anddebris, which hinder free drainage of water in the test apparatus. Morefrequent cleaning is recommended
40、 if the nature of samples being runcauses persistent contamination.10.1 Measure a suitable amount of sample to an accuracy of6 1% and transfer it to the still.10.2 Measure ordinary liquid samples in a graduated cylin-der of an appropriate size. Rinse the material adhering to thecylinder with one 50-
41、mL and two 25-mL portions of thesolvent-carrier liquid (see Section 6 and Table 1). Drain thecylinder thoroughly after the sample transfer and each rinsing.10.3 Weigh solid or viscous materials directly into the stilland add 100 mL of the selected solvent-carrier liquid. In casesof material with a l
42、ow-water content when large samples mustbe used, a solvent-carrier liquid volume in excess of 100 mLmay be necessary.10.4 Glass beads or other boiling aids may be added, ifnecessary, to reduce bumping.10.5 Assemble the components of the apparatus, as illus-trated in Fig. 1, Fig. 2, and Fig. 3, choos
43、ing the trap inaccordance with the expected water content of the sample andmaking all connections vapor and liquid tight. If a metal stillwith a removable cover is used, insert a gasket of heavy paper,moistened with solvent, between the still body and the cover.The condenser tube and trap must be ch
44、emically clean toensure free drainage of water into the bottom of the trap. Inserta loose cotton plug in the top of the condenser to preventcondensation of atmospheric moisture inside it. Circulate coldwater through the jacket of the condenser.10.6 Apply heat to the still, adjusting the rate of boil
