7、Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.3Other grades may beused,provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is ofsufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening theaccuracy of the determination.5.2 Purity of WaterUnless otherwise indicate
8、d,referencesto water shall be understood to mean reagent water conformingto Type IV of Specification D 1193.5.3 Potassium Permanganate Solution(0.316 g/L)Dissolve 0.316 g of potassium permanganate(KMnO4)inwater and dilute to 1 L with freshly boiled water(Note).Thesolution should be stored in brown b
9、ottles and be freshlyprepared weekly as required.NOTE1Clean glassware is essential to the stability of the KMnO4solution.Clean graduated cylinders and permanganate storage and han-dling equipment with concentrated hydrochloric acid(HCl,sp gr 1.19)toremove residual manganese oxide(MnO2)which catalyze
10、s reduction ofKMnO4.Remove the acid with not less than ten rinsings with water.6.Hazards6.1 Tricresyl phosphate is hazardous through inhalation orskin absorption.Take care in handling the material.Avoid eyeand skin contact and inhalation of vapors.6.2 Orthoisomer of tricresyl phosphate is considered
11、 toxic.Trace amounts may be present in tricresyl phosphate speci-mens.7.Procedure7.1 Weigh 10 6 0.1 g of the sample to be tested into a100-mLglass-stoppered graduated cylinder.To this,add 50 mLof the KMnO4solution.Vigorously shake the mixture for 2min,noting the time when the shaking begins.Allow th
12、e test tostand for a period of 28 min following the shaking period andobserve the color.8.Report8.1 If the color of the permanganate solution is still pink,report the sample as“passing.”If no pink color is present,report the sample as“not passing.”1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM
