3、thod describes a simplified procedure for the measurement of density or relative density of pure liquid chemicalsfor which accurate temperature expansion functions are known. It is restricted to liquids having vapor pressures not exceeding 79993 Pascal (0.800 bar, 600 mm Hg (0.789 atm) at the equili

5、0FCommercial density, lb (in air)/U.K. gal at 60F.Relative density 15.56C/15.56CNOTE 1This test method is based on the old definition of 1 L= 1.000028 dm3(1 mL= 1.000028 cm3). In 1964 the General Conference on Weightsand Measures withdrew this definition of the litre and declared that the word “litr
6、e” was a special name for the cubic decimetre, thus making 1 mL =1cm3exactly.NOTE 2An alternative method for determining relative density of pure liquid chemicals is Test Method D4052.1.3 The following applies to all specified limits in this test method: for purposes of determining conformance with
7、this testmethod, an observed value or a calculated value shall be rounded off “to the nearest unit” in the last right-hand digit used inexpressing the specification limit, in accordance with the rounding-off method of Practice E29.1.41.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.

Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 density, nthe mass of material per unit volume at a given temperature called the “reference temperature.” Weightcorrected to a standard acceleration of gravity and corrected for the buoyant effect of air is used to measure mass. Th
17、is methodspecifies the use of a beam balance to determine weight so that no correction for variation in acceleration of gravity is necessary.When a torsion or spring balance is used, such correction must be applied.3.1.2 relative density, nthe ratio of the density of the material at reference temper
18、ature “t” to the density of pure water, inconsistent units, at reference temperature t2. It is common practice to use reference temperature t1equal to t2.3.1.2.1 Since the mass of water at 4C is very close to 1 g/mLor 1 g/cm3, it is common practice to set the reference temperaturet2for water at 4C.
19、When this is done and the density of the material is given in grams per millilitre, or grams per cubic centimetre,the value of density is very nearly identical to the value for relative density. Thus, density at 20C in g/cm3or g/mL, is nearlyidentical with relative density 20C/4C.3.1.3commercial den

Summary of Test MethodNOTE 3See Appendix X1 for details on the method and derivation of formulas.4.1 For materials listed in Table 1 the sample is drawn into a weighed and calibr

Theequilibrium temperature is measured to the nearest 0.02C. The weight is determined using a beam balance. The density, relativedensity, or commerci
23、al density at the desired reference temperature is then calculated from the sample weight, a calibration factorproportional to an equal volume of water, and a multiplier which corrects for the buoyancy of air and the change in volume of thepycnometer and the sample due to deviation from the chosen r

25、l volume of water and a term which corrects for the buoyancy of air. In the case of volatile liquidssuch as pentane, the time between reading of volume at the equilibrium temperature and weighing must not be prolonged,otherwise weight loss through evaporation may result in errors.43Available from U.

If a straight line cannot be drawn through the three points, discardthe data and determine three additional points so that a straight calibration line can
45、 be drawn such that no data point lies more than0.0002-mL units from the line. If neither set of data meets the condition, the diameters of the graduated capillary arms are notsufficiently uniform, and the pycnometer should be discarded.10.4 From the curve obtained, prepare a table of apparent volum

Label this table with the reference temperature towhich it applies.11. Procedure11.1 Weigh the clean, dry pycnometer to 0.1 mg and record the weight.11.2 With the
47、 sample at approximately the test temperature, fill the pycnometer by holding it in an upright position and placingthe hooked tip in the sample; the liquid will then be drawn over the bend in the capillary by surface tension.Allow the pycnometerto fill by siphoning (about 1 min) and break the siphon
48、 when the liquid level in the bulb arm of the pycnometer reaches the lowestgraduation mark.11.3 Thoroughly dry the wet tip. Wipe the body of the pycnometer with a chemically clean, lint-free cloth slightly damp withwater (Note 4) and weigh the filled pycnometer to the nearest 0.1 mg.NOTE 5In atmosph
49、eres below 60 % relative humidity, drying the pycnometer by rubbing with a dry cotton cloth will induce static charges equivalentto a loss of about 1 mg or more in the weight of the pycnometer. This charge may not be completely dissipated in less than12 h, and can be detectedby touching the pycnometer to the wire hook in the balance and then drawing it away slowly. If the pycnometer exhibits an attraction for the wire hook,it may be considered to have a static charge.11.4 Place the pycnometer in the hold
