1、Designation: D3694 96 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Practices forPreparation of Sample Containers and for Preservation ofOrganic Constituents1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3694; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case
2、 of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These practices cover the various means of (1) preparingsample containers used for collectio
3、n of waters to be analyzedfor organic constituents and (2) preservation of such samplesfrom the time of sample collection until the time of analysis.1.2 The sample preservation practice is dependent upon thespecific analysis to be conducted. See Section 9 for preserva-tion practices listed with the

26、re four basic steps necessary to obtain meaning-ful analytical data: preparation of the sample container,sampling, sample preservation, and analysis. In fact these fourbasic steps comprise the analytical method and for this reasonno step should be overlooked. Although the significance ofpreservation
27、 is dependent upon the time between sampling andthe analysis, unless the analysis is accomplished within 2 hafter sampling, preservation is preferred and usually required.5.

Thesevolumes of wash and rinse portions are recommended for 1-Lsample bottles; therefore, use proportiona
43、te volumes for wash-ing and rinsing sample bottles of a different volume.8. Preparation of Glass Sample Bottles and Vials8.1 Solvent-Detergent/Chromic Acid Preparation of GlassSample Bottles:8.1.1 Rinse the container with 100 mL of dilute detergent oracetone. For some residues, a few alternative det
44、ergent andacetone rinses may be more satisfactory. Then rinse at leastthree times with tap water followed by a reagent water rinse toremove the residual detergent or acetone, or both.8.1.2 Rinse the container with 100 mL of chromic acidsolution, returning the chromic acid to its original containeraf
45、ter use. Then rinse with at least three 100-mL portions of tapwater followed by a reagent water rinse.8.1.3 Rinse the container with 100 mL of NaHSO3solutionto remove residual hexavalent chromium. (WarningCarryout this step in a hood to prevent exposure to SO2fumes.)8.1.4 Rinse the container with wa
46、ter until sulfurous acid andits vapors have been removed. Test rinsings for acid with a pHmeter or an appropriate narrow range pH paper. Rinsingsshould have a pH approximately the same as the water used forrinsing.8.1.5 When the last trace of NaHSO3has been removed,wash with three additional 100-mL
47、portions of water. Allow todrain. This procedure is for 1-L sample containers, therefore,use proportionate volumes for washing and rinsing samplecontainers of a different volume.8.1.6 Heat for a minimum of 4 h (mouth up) in a forced draftoven at 275 to 325C. Upon cooling, fit the bottles with capsan
