Summary of Test Method3.1 The
7、sulfenamide is heated in an oven to remove water.This water is directed into the titration vessel of a Karl Fischercoulometric titrator with a stream of dry air or nitrogen. Thewater collected in the titration vessel is quantified coulometri-cally. Commercial instrumentation exists to carry out this
8、two-step procedure automatically.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is designed to determine the watercontent of various rubber accelerators. Since2-mercaptobenzothiazole sulfenamide is hydrolyticallyunstable, the residual water content is an important character-istic.5. Interferences5.1 Th
9、e Karl Fischer titration is inherently unreceptive tothe analysis of ketones, aldehydes, and amines. The reagentsystems of Section 7 can be used when free amines are presentif benzoic acid is added to the titration vessel before analysis.The acid serves to adjust the apparent pH difficulties when fr
10、eeamines are present. Add5gofbenzoic acid to the titrationvessel before starting a series of analyses. This is renewedwhenever a drift value exceeds 30 % of the microgram count orwhen a known amount of water does not produce the correctmicrograms count.5.2 Some rubber chemicals contain amines as par
11、t of theirstructure and may release these amines during the heatingprocess.6. Apparatus6.1 Karl Fischer Coulometric Apparatus, equipped with aheating oven to remove water from the test portion placed in it.The water is directed into the titration vessel by means of astream of dry air or nitrogen. Th
12、e evolved water is quantifiedcoulometrically. The instrument must satisfy conditions foundin 6.2 and Section 9.NOTE 1The apparatus must be used by those versed in its operation.It is not the intent or purpose of this test method to instruct the operator.This information is best obtained from manuals

16、 Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.17. Reagents7.1 There are a wide variety of reagents on the market forcoulometric analysis. Use the reagent system(s) recommendedby the manufacturer of the equipment to be used. The systemsmay be of t
17、he one component type (same vessel and generatorsolutions) or the two component type (same solution for vesseland generator). Both systems were used in the results reportedin the Appendix.7.2 Benzoic Acid, reagent grade.7.3 De-Ionized Water and Commercial Water Standards.7.4 Nitrogen, Dry Air or Ine
18、rt Gas.7.5 Pyridine-Free or Pyridine-Containing Solutions may beused. Pyridine-free solutions were used for the results reportedin the Appendix.8. Calibration8.1 Karl Fischer coulometric analyzers need no calibration.Operation is based on Faradays Law which states that onecoulomb of electricity is n
19、eeded to electrolyze one mole of amaterial.8.2 Periodic confirmation of this is obtained by injecting aknown amount of water into the titration vessel. This mustproduce the theoretical g count within reasonable tolerances.As an example: Injection of 2.0 mm3of water should producea g count of 2000 g
20、6 50 to 100 g.8.3 Water standards, which are commercially available, canalso be used for 8.2. Follow the manufacturers instructions forusing these standards.9. Procedure9.1 Accurately weigh a well-mixed representative test por-tion to the nearest 0.1 mg and place it in the oven container.Sample mass
21、 will vary with water content. It is recommendedthat at least 300 g of water be detected. Follow manufactur-ers recommendations for appropriate sample mass and instru-ment settings and adjust sample mass accordingly.9.2 Appropriate titrator and oven settings follow.
