The method is applicable to the analysis of polyethoxylated
14、derivatives of primary saturated fatty alcohols; oleyl alcohol; saturated fatty acids; straight and branched chain alkylphenols. It is also applicable in the presence of unreacted alcohols, fatty acids or alkylphenols of the types mentioned above. The method is not applicable in the presence of comp
15、ounds containing sulfur or nitrogen; compounds containing oxygen or halogen atoms on adjacent carbon atoms other than as oxyethylene groups, for example compounds containing oxypropylene groups; aldehydes or acetals; sterols and derivatives. 2 Normative references The following standards contain pro
16、visions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the

18、General requirements. 3 Principle Hydrolysis of the oxyethylene groups by nascent hydriodic acid. Liberation of the iodine and titration with a standard volumetric sodium thiosulfate solution. 4 Reactions The basic reaction is the conversion of each (CH 2 -CH 2 O) group to ethylene di-iodide (ICH 2
19、-CH 2 I), in accordance with the equation RO-(CH 2 -CH 2 O) n H + 2nHI F nICH 2 -CH 2 I + ROH + nH 2 O The unstable ethylene di-iodide is then decomposed on heating: ICH 2 -CH 2 I F C 2 H 4+ I 2 NOTEIf R is an alkyl radical, ROH will be converted to RI. Some of the ethylene groups (and all of any ol
20、eyl alcohol present) will react with HI to form a stable iodide. 5 Reagents During the analysis, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only distilled water or water of equivalent purity. 5.1 Nitrogen or carbon dioxide 5.2 Potassium iodide, crystals, minimum purity99,5%. 5.3 Phosphoric
21、 acid, 20approximately1,70g/ml. 5.4 Methanol, 20 0,79g/ml. 5.5 Potassium iodide,100g/l solution. 5.6 Sodium thiosulfate, standard volumetric solution, c(Na 2 S 2 O 3 )=0,1mol/l. 5.7 Starch, indicator solution. Mix5g of starch and10g of mercury(II) iodide with30ml of water; add this mixture to1litre
22、of boiling water and boil for3min. 6 Apparatus Ordinary laboratory apparatus and: 6.1 Round-bottom flask (seeFigure 1 andFigure 2), capacity 50ml, with a central neck fitted with a 19/26 conical ground-glass socket and a side neck fitted with a 14/23 conical ground-glass socket. The conical ground-g
23、lass joints shall comply withISO383. 6.2 Gas inlet tube (seeFigure 1 andFigure 2), with a 14/23; conical ground-glass cone terminating in a length of at least20mm of tubing of1,5mm internal diameter. When fitted to the flask (6.1), the tube shall end about10mm above the bottom of the flask. 6.3 Wate
24、r-cooled reflux condenser (seeFigure 1 andFigure 2), with a nominal length of200mm to500mm, a 19/26 conical ground-glass cone at the bottom and a 14/23 conical ground-glass socket, attached at an angle of45 , at the top (seeFigure 1)The conical ground-glass joints shall comply withISO383. 6.4 Absorp
25、tion bulbs (seeFigure 1 andFigure 2), of capacity7ml to10ml. 6.5 Sample introduction rod (seeFigure 1), comprising a solid glass rod with a wide-mouthed hollow cone at one end. 6.6 Oil bath, capable of being maintained at a temperature of165 C 1 C.BS6829-4.3:1990 2 BSI 12-1999 6.7 Flow meter, capabl
26、e of measuring flow rates in the region of0,5ml/s. 6.8 Burette, capacity50ml, complying with class A ofISO385-1. 7 Procedure 7.1 Test portion Weigh, to the nearest0,1mg, into the cone of the sample introduction rod (6.5) 60mg to300mg of the sample in the case of a product containing less than33% (m/
27、m) of ethylene oxide; sufficient of the sample to contain20mg to100mg of ethylene oxide, in the case of a product containing more than33% (m/m) of ethylene oxide. 7.2 Determination Invert the flask (6.1) over the sample introduction rod containing the test portion (see7.1), then turn the flask uprig
28、ht, allowing the rod to slide into the flask so that its cavity end is at the bottom of the flask. Add3g of the potassium iodide (5.2). Attach the inlet tube (6.2) and the condenser (6.3) to the flask, using a little of the phosphoric acid (5.3) to lubricate the ground-glass joints. Pass a stream of
29、 the nitrogen or carbon dioxide (5.1) into the flask at a flow rate greater than0,5ml/s for at least20min. Without interrupting the gas flow or removing the condenser, place the flask in the oil bath (6.6) maintained at165 C 1 C. Reduce the gas flow rate to between0,1ml/s and0,5ml/s. Add, via the co
30、ndenser,5ml of the phosphoric acid (5.3) to the flask. Fill the absorption bulbs (6.4) with a suitable quantity (7ml to10ml) of the potassium iodide solution (5.5) and attach them to the condenser. Allow the reaction to proceed for30min, ensuring that the oil bath does not exceed the specified tempe
31、rature during the last20min. Remove the flask from the source of heat, without interrupting the gas flow, and allow to cool to below80 C. Stop the flow of nitrogen or carbon dioxide. Quickly turn the absorption bulbs about the axis of the joint so that their contents flow down the condenser into the
32、 flask. Turn the bulbs back to their original position. Introduce another7ml to10ml of the potassium iodide solution into the absorption bulbs and again turn them so that the contents flow down the condenser into the flask. Remove the absorption bulbs. Rinse the condenser and its lower joint with a
33、few millilitres of the potassium iodide solution, collecting the rinsings in the flask, and remove the condenser. Similarly, rinse and remove the gas inlet tube. Transfer quantitatively the contents of the round-bottom flask to a250ml conical flask, rinsing with water and a few millilitres of the po
34、tassium iodide solution. If a sparingly soluble residue is seen, dissolve this in a few millilitres of the methanol (5.4). Titrate with the standard volumetric sodium thiosulfate solution (5.6), adding the starch indicator solution (5.7) when the iodine colour has nearly disappeared. 7.3 Blank test
