6、ysis of Tannery Liquors33.Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 tannery liquorwater solutions containing vegetabletannin that are made up and used in a vegetable tannery.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 An analytical solution is prepared from the sample oftannery liquor(Practice D6404).Specimen aliquots from
7、thisanalytical solution are then analyzed for total acidity by one oftwo titrametric methods.5.Significance and Use5.1 This test method is used to determine one of thechemical properties of tannery liquors which are relevant forthe vegetable tanning process and influence the astringency ofvegetable
8、tanning liquors.The astringency of liquors is depen-dent upon the solids and tannin content and the acidity.Thistest method provides a standard procedure for determining thetotal acidity for any sample of vegetable tanning liquor.5.2 The specimens are aliquots from the analytical solutionprepared fr
9、om the sample of tannery liquor collected for thispurpose.5.3 The total acidity of the liquor sample is determined byone of two titrametric procedures described in this test method.6.Apparatus and Reagents6.1 Analytical Solution:6.1.1 Flask,1 Lvolumetric.ClassAflasks with a bulb in theneck(M.C.A.typ
10、e)are especially suitable for this work.6.1.2 Hydrometer,preferably with a Barkometer scale(thatis,a scale calibrated in Bk).The three digits to the right of thedecimal point on a standard specific gravity reading are equalto the Barkometer scale reading.That is,a sp.gr.of 1.200equals 200Bk and a sp
11、.gr.of 1.020 equals 20Bk.6.2 Acidity DeterminationMethod I:6.2.1 Graduated Cylinder,glass-stoppered,graduated tocontain 250 mL.6.2.2 Gelatin Solution,1%,neutral to bromocresol purple.The addition of 25 mL of 95%ethyl alcohol per litre isrecommended to prevent frothing.The solution shall be ad-justed
12、 to neutrality to bromocresol purple with 0.1 N aceticacid or 0.1 N sodium hydroxide.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D31 on Leatherand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D31.01 on Vegetable Leather.Thistest method has been adapted from and is a replacement for
