Scope1.1 This test method describes a procedure for sampling andtesting dispersions of rolling oils in water from operating steelrolling mills for determination of ash and total iron content. Itspurpose is to provide a test method such that a representativesample may be taken and phenom

The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purp
5、ort to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Summary of Test Method3.1 Polyethylene disposable sample bags in a suitable hold-ing device are used to collect representative samples ofnonhomogeneous dispersions of rolling mill oils in wat
8、er froman operating mill coolant system.3.2 The collected sample and disposable bag are analyzed asone for ash and total iron.3.2.1 Ash content is determined gravimetrically by evapo-rating all water from the sample bag before heating the residueand bag in a muffle furnace to a constant weight (Test
9、 MethodD 482).3.2.2 Total iron content is determined by digesting the ironin the ashed sample and bag in an acidified solution. The ironin the solution is reduced with stannous chloride and titratedwith standardized potassium dichromate.3.2.3 The ash and total iron contributed by a sample bagalone a
10、re determined separately and are subtracted from thevalues of bag and sample to obtain the values for the samplealone.NOTE 1There are a number of alternative methods available fordetermining total iron in an ashed solution such as Test Methods D 2795and D 1068.4. Significance and Use4.1 The life cyc
11、le and cleanliness of a recirculating steelmill rolling oil dispersion is affected by the amount of ironpresent. This iron consists mainly of iron from acid picklingresidues and iron from attrition of the steel sheet or rolls duringcold rolling. In sampling rolling oils for total iron it is difficul
12、tto prevent adherence of iron containing sludge to the samplecontainer. Thus, the accuracy of a total iron determination froman aliquot sample is suspect. This practice provides a means forensuring that all iron contained in a sample is included in theanalysis.4.2 Although less significant, the ash
13、content is still anessential part of the procedure for obtaining a total ironanalysis. Generally, the ash will be mostly iron, and in manycases, could be used as a substitute for total iron in determiningwhen to change the dispersion.5.
