7、Using the Soxhlet Extractor33.Significance and Use3.1 Water-extractable chloride,when present in sufficientamount,has a potential to initiate or accelerate corrosion ofmetals,such as steel,embedded in or contacting a cementitioussystem,such as mortar,grout,or concrete.This test method isapplicable w
8、hen aggregates contain a high background ofnaturally occurring chloride(see ACI 222.196).Test MethodC1152/C1152M determines acid-soluble chloride and TestMethod C1218/C1218M determines water-soluble chloride.Both Test Methods C1152/C1152M and C1218/C1218M pul-verize the sample to a fine powder or fi
9、ne granular material.The Soxhlet method is intended to use nonpulverized material.Results with some aggregates have shown that the Soxhletprocedure extracts an extremely low amount of chloride,withmost of it remaining in the rock,and therefore,it is notavailable for corrosion.3.2 The Soxhlet extract
10、ion apparatus consists of three sec-tions:the boiling flask,which contains reagent water at thebeginning of the test;the extractor,which contains the sampleinside a thimble;and,the condenser.The extractor functions byboiling the water,which condenses and drips on to the sample.When the water attains
11、 a fixed height above the sample,theextractor siphons the water from the thimble back to the boilingflask.The process repeats itself until the test is terminated.(Refer to Fig.1.)4.Apparatus4.1 Sampling Equipment:4.1.1 The apparatus required for obtaining aggregatesamples is described in Practice D7
