Summary of Test Methods4.1 These test methods describe the specific procedures for testing the properties of pulp, both in its origi

Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended that all reagents shallconform to the specifications of the Committee on Analytical Reagents of t
34、he American Chemical Society, where suchspecifications are available.5 Other grades may be used, It is acceptable to use other grades, provided it is first ascertained that thereagent is of sufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy of the determination.5.2 Purity of W

Sampling6.1 Terminology regarding sampling and evaluation terminology shall conform to those in the sampling sections of TestMethods D202.6.2 Obtain the sample of pulp
36、from the lot to be evaluated in a manner that will maximize the probability that a representativesample is collected. Where practicable, use one of the sampling plans shown in Test Methods D202. Protect the material samplefrom contamination during handling and transporting to a laboratory for testin
37、g. The instructions for preparation of specimens aregiven in the sections pertaining to the individual property tests. Take the sample for moisture content in accordance with TAPPIT 210.6.3 Condition samples in a container suitable for preventing moisture variation over the period of testing. When t
38、est specimensare drawn, determine the moisture content of the material to allow correction of weights to moisture-free equivalent weight.7.

46、The extract pH determination measures the degree to which a pulp alters the hydrogen-hydroxyl equilibrium of pure water.The test gives a measure of the active acidity or alkalinity of the pulp extract. The It is possible that the presence of active acidicor alkaline contaminants in a pulp maywill re
