NOTES:
(1) Water Soluble Ion Tests. The inside (bottom and sides) of a one (1) liter beaker, approx. OD 105 mm,
height 145 mm, is thoroughly coated with 100 -t10 grams of the sample. The coated beaker is filled
with approximately 900 ml of distilled water and heated in an oven at a controlled temperature of
100"F (37.8°C) t 2°F for 4 hours. The water extraction is tested by the noted test procedures for the
appropriate water soluble ions. Results are reported as PPM in the. extracted water.
(2) ASTM D 974 Modified. Place 10 g of sample in a 500 ml Erlenmeyer flask. Add 10 cc isopropyl alcohol
and 5 cc toluene. Heat until sample goes into solution. Add 90 cc distilled water and 20 cc 1NH 2 S0 4.
Place solution on a steam bath for 1/ hour. Stir well. Add a few drops of indicator (1% phenolphthalein)
and titrate with 1NNaOH until the lower layer just turns pink. If acid or base solutions are not exactly
1N, the exact normalities should be used when calculating the base number. The Total Base Number
(TBN), expressed as milligrams of KOH per gram of sample, is calculated as follows:

TBN = 1(20) (NA) - (B) (N,)] 56.1

less, in which case the base number shall be no less than zero. If the tendon duct is filled with a mixture
