Sampling8.1 Since organic isocyanates react with atmospher
17、ic moisture, take special precautions in sampling. Usual sampling methods,even when conducted rapidly, can cause contamination of the sample with insoluble urea. Therefore, blanket the sample with dryair or nitrogen at all times. (WarningDiisocyanates are eye, skin and respiratory irritants at conce
18、ntrations above theoccupational exposure limit (TLV or PEL). Diisocyanates can cause skin and respiratory sensitization (asthma) in some people.Once sensitized, it is essential to limit further exposure to diisocyanates. Use a combination of engineering controls and personalprotective equipment, inc
19、luding respiratory, skin and eye protection, to prevent over-exposure to diisocyanates. Consult the productsuppliers Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for more detailed information about potential health effects and other specific safety andhandling instructions for the product.)NOTE 3Many diisocyanates are k

Over-exposure to diisocyanates can lead to adverse health effects which may includethe development of occupational asthma and other respiratory, skin and eye effects. Engineering controls and/or personal protective equipment, includingrespiratory, skin and eye protecti

Test Conditions10.1 Since isocyanates react with moisture, It is essential that moisture be excluded from the sample by all means possible toensure the accuracy of measurements in this standard.
23、 See Section 8keep laboratory humidity low, preferably around 50 % relativehumidity. of this standard for guidance on how to keep moisture out of the sample.11.

Warm samples cause more frequent electrode
25、 clogging.11.6 With uniform stitrring of the sample, automatically titrate the mixture with 0.02 N methanolic KOH through thepotentiometrically-determined inflection end point between apparent pH 4 and 9. Follow manufacturers instructions forinstrument-specific parameters for set-up, calibration and
26、 analysis of samples.NOTE 5If results indicate a drift in the data or a slow electrode response, the pH electrode should be cleaned by soaking in 2:1 sulfuric: nitric acidsfor 10 min, followed by soaking in water for 20 min, and then rinsing with acetone.clean or replace the pH electrode.D6099 18211

If more than one potentiometric end point is found, record theone at highest apparent pH less than 7.NOTE 6The inflection point typically is at apparent pH between 4 and 5.11.7.1 If no clear end point can be identified, calculate results
28、 using the end point at apparent pH 7.0, and report the result asacidity at apparent pH 7.0.12.

Precision and Bias514.1 Table 1 is based on a round robin conducted in 1995 in accordance with Practice E180, involving two materials tested bytwelve laboratories. For each material, all the samples were p
31、repared at one source, but the individual specimens were preparedat the laboratories that tested them. Some laboratories generated a set of results for each of two solvents (toluene and TCB), andsome laboratories generated a set of results for each of two different electrode types. Neither change in
32、 experimental conditionswas found to be a significant source of increased variability. Each of these combinations of conditions was treated as a differentlaboratory for purposes of calculating the precision data. Each test result was the average of two individual determinations. Eachlaboratory obtai
33、ned two test results for each material for each combination of electrode and solvent used. (WarningThefollowing explanations of r and R (14.1.1 and 14.1.2) are intended only to present a meaningful way of considering theapproximate precision of this test method. The data in Table 1 should not be app
