Designation:D681022Standard Test Method forMeasurement of Hindered Phenolic Antioxidant Content inNon-Zinc Turbine Oils by Linear Sweep Voltammetry1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6810;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the voltammetric determinationof hindered phenol antioxidants in new or in-service non-zincturbine oils in concentrations from 0.0075%by weight up toconcentrations found in new oils by measuring the amount ofcurrent flow at a specified voltage in the produced voltammo-gram.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.4 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recom-mendations issued by the World Trade Organization TechnicalBarriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D1193 Specification for Reagent WaterD4057 Practice for Manual Sampling of Petroleum andPetroleum ProductsD4175 Terminology Relating to Petroleum Products,LiquidFuels,and LubricantsD4378 Practice for In-Service Monitoring of Mineral Tur-bine Oils for Steam,Gas,and Combined Cycle TurbinesD6224 Practice for In-Service Monitoring of Lubricating Oilfor Auxiliary Power Plant EquipmentD6447 Test Method for Hydroperoxide Number of AviationTurbine Fuels by Voltammetric AnalysisD6971 Test Method for Measurement of Hindered Phenolicand Aromatic Amine Antioxidant Content in Non-zincTurbine Oils by Linear Sweep Voltammetry3.Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1See Terminology D4175 for a more extensive list ofterms used in this test method.3.1.2 electrolytic cell,nan electrochemical cell in whichchemical reactions are caused by applying an external potentialdifference greater than,and opposite to,the galvanic electro-motive force of the cell.IUPAC33.1.3 linear sweep voltammetry,na technique applied tothe monitoring of antioxidant additive content in lubricants,where the current is detected as an applied potential isincreased linearly over a period of time.3.1.4 voltammogram,nthe plot of current versus voltage.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 A measured quantity of sample is dispensed into a vialcontaining a measured quantity of alcohol-based electrolytesolution and containing a layer of sand.When the vial isshaken,the hindered phenol antioxidants and other solutionsoluble oil components present in the sample are extracted intothe solution and the remaining droplets suspended in thesolution are agglomerated by the sand.The sand/dropletsuspension is allowed to settle out and the hindered phenolantioxidants dissolved in the solution are quantified by volta-mmetric analysis.The results are calculated and reported asweight percent of antioxidant or as millimoles(mmol)ofantioxidant per litre of sample for prepared and fresh oils andas a percent remaining antioxidant for used oils.4.2 Voltammetric analysis is a technique that applieselectro-analytic methods when a sample to be analyzed ismixed with an electrolyte and a solvent and placed within an1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetroleum Products,Liquid Fuels,and Lubricants and is the direct responsibility ofSubcommittee D02.09.0C on Oxidation of Turbine Oils.Current edition approved July 1,2022.Published August 2022.Originallyapproved in 2002.Last previous edition approved in 2021 as D6810 21.DOI:10.1520/D6810-22.2For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.3Inczedy,J.,Lengyel,T.,and Ure,A.M.,Orange Book:IUPAC Compendium onAnalytical Nomenclature,Definitive Rules 1997,3rd Edition,Blackwell Science,1998.*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this standardCopyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.1electrolytic cell.Data i
