1、Designation: D 6447 03An American National StandardStandard Test Method forHydroperoxide Number of Aviation Turbine Fuels byVoltammetric Analysis1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6447; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in
2、 the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 The test method covers the determination of the hydro-peroxide content of aviatio
3、n turbine fuels.The test method mayalso be applicable to the determination of the hydroperoxidecontent of any water-insoluble, organic fluid, particularlydiesel fuels, gasolines, and kerosines.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to a
4、ddress all the safetyconcerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to consult and establish appropriatesafety and health practices and determine the applicability ofregulatory limitations prior to use.

Summary of Test Method3.1 A quantity of sample is contacted wit
6、h aqueous potas-sium iodide solution in the presence of acid. The hydroperox-ides present are reduced by the potassium iodide. An equiva-lent amount of iodine is liberated, which is quantified byvoltammetric analysis. The results are calculated and reportedas millimoles (mmole) of hydroperoxide per
7、litre of sample.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is functionally equivalent to TestMethod D 3703, which uses an ozone depleting substance,(1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane). The use of an ozonedepleting substance precludes U. S. military bases from utiliz-ing Test Method D 3703. This
8、 test method and Test MethodD 3703 measure the same peroxide species (primarily hydro-peroxides) in aviation fuels.4.2 The magnitude of the hydroperoxide number is anindication of the quantity of oxidizing constituents present.Deterioration of fuel results in the formation of hydroperoxidesand other
9、 oxygen-carrying compounds. The hydroperoxidenumber measures those compounds that will oxidize potassiumiodide.4.3 The determination of the hydroperoxide number of fuelsis significant because of the adverse effect of hydroperoxidesupon certain elastomers in the fuel systems.5. Apparatus5.1 Voltammet
10、ric Analyzer3The instrument used to quan-tify the liberated iodine is a voltammetric analyzer equippedwith a three electrode system and a digital or analog output.The combination electrode system (see Fig. 1) consists of aglassy carbon disc (3-mm diameter) working electrode, aplatinum wire (0.5 mm d
11、iameter) auxiliary electrode, and aplatinum wire (0.5 mm diameter) reference electrode. Thevoltammetric analyzer applies a linear voltage ramp (0 to 1 Vrange with respect to the reference electrode) at a rate of 0.1V/s to the auxiliary electrode. The current output of theworking electrode is convert
12、ed to voltage by the voltammetricanalyzer, using the gain ratio of 1V/20A. The peak height orpeak area of the voltammetric response to iodine is outputted toan analog or digital recording device (0 to 1 V full scale).5.2 Vortex Mixer,4with a 2800 to 3000 rpm motor and apad suitable for mixing test t
