Appendix

  1. Specification of light Caoutchucine
  2. Nature.- By "caoutchoucine" is meant the liquid obtained by the dry distillation of vulcanised rubber. By 'light caoutchoucine' is meant the liquid obtained by re-distilling "caoutchoucine" and collecting that portion which passes over at or below about 200 C.
  3. The specific gravity of light caoutchoucine.- The specific gravity of light caoutchoucine at 60 F should lie between .835 and .860 referred to water as 1.00.
  4. Boiling test.- For the purpose of this test 100 c.c. of light caoutchoucine should be re-distilled in the pyridine testing flask (see below under pyridine bases). Under those conditions not more than 15 c.c. of distillate should pass over, at or below 100 C, whilst a total (including the foregoing) of at least 70 c.c. should pass over at or below 200 C.
  5. Absence of soluble constituents.- When 25 c.c. of light caoutchoucine are shaken with an equal volume of water in a stoppered graduated cylinder and due time is allowed for the liquids to separate again into two layers, the light caoutchoucine should show no appreciable diminution in volume.
  6. Neutrality.- The aqueous lawyer obtained from the test in paragraph 4 above should show no marked acidity or alkalinity when tested with both red and blue litmus paper.
  7. Limit of saturated hydrocarbons.- At least 70 per cent of the light caoutchoucine should be soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid. For testing this 25 c.c. should be measured off into a tapped and stoppered separating cylinder of suitable capacity, and sulphuric acid should be added, at first with great care and in very small quantities. After each addition of acid the cylinder should be shaken and cooled to avoid loss of volatile constituents. Sufficient acid must be used (usually about 50 c.c.) for the highly colored layer to become quite fluid so that it can separate readily from the upper layer of unattached constituents. After a final through shaking and cooling, the cylinder should be left for about three hours to effect the complete separation of the two layers, and the lower layer should be than tapped off. The almost colourless upper layer should again be shaken with strong sulphuric acid until it appears free from soluble constituents (as judged by the colour imparted to the sulphuric acid) and separated as before, after standing. It should finally measure not more than 7 c.c. The acid used should be of specific gravity 1.84 and may be of commercial quality.
  8. Freedom from water.- Light caoutchoucine should not contain any appreciable amount of water. Any officer drawing samples for test should certify on the bottle that he has drawn the sample from the bottom of the containing vessel where the water if present, will be found. For this purpose he should employ a syphon tube of which the shorter limb reaches to the floor of the containing vessel. He should also assure himself that the sample is collected in a bottle free of moisture.
  9. Specification of pyridine bases
  10. Nature.- "Pyridine" paper is a single definite compound (CHN) boiling at about 116 C. "Pyridine bases" are mixture of pyridine with closely allied compounds (boiling at various temperatures)" and must be of guaranteed mineral origin.
  11. Colour.- The Colour must not be darker than that given by 2 c.c. of decinormal iodine solution dissolved in one liter of distilled water.
  12. Miscibility with water.- Twenty c.c. of the pyrindine basis should give clear mixture with 40 c.c. of water; or else a mixture only so slightly opalescent that after standing for five minutes, ordinary newspaper type is clearly visible through a layer 15 cm. deep.
  13. Amount of water present.- From 20 c.c. of the pyridine basis mixed with 20 c.c. of caustic soda solution (density 1-4) at least 18.5 c.c. of the basis should separate after having been repeatedly shaken together, and allowed to stand.
  14. Titriation.- Dissolve 1 c.c. of the pyridine basis in 10 c.c. of distilled water. Titrate with normal sulphuric acid until a drop of the mixture gives a definite blue spot on congo-red paper (the blue colour should at once disappear).

At least 10 c.c. of the normal sulphuric acid should be required to produce this reaction (prepare the congo-red paper dissolve one gram of cango-red in one litre of distilled water. Soak the filter paper in this and they dry).

  1. Cadmium chloride reaction.- Vigorously shake together 10 c.c. of a solution of 1 c.c. of pyridine bases in 100 c.c. of distilled water with 5 c.c. of a 5 per cent solution of dry fused cadmium chloride. A distinct crystalline precipitate should immediately result.
  2. Boiling point.- Distil 100 c.c. of the pyridine basis in the manner described below. At least 90 per cent should distil over at or under 140 C.

Method. - One hundred c.c. of the pyridine bases are placed in a short-necked copper flask of about 220 c.c. capacity. The flask is arranged on an asbestos card which has a circular hole of 30 m.m. diameter cut in it. To the flask is attached a fractionating column (consisting of a tube 13 m.m. wide and 170 m.m. long provided with one bulb) of which the side-tube (issuing 1 cm. above the bulb) joins a Liebig's condenser of which the cooled part is at least long 400 m.m. A. standard thermometer is placed in the head of the column so that its bulb occupies the centre of the bulb of the column.

The speed of distillation is adjusted to 5 c.c. per minute, the distillate being received in a graduated glass cylinder. At least 90 c.c. should distil over at or under 140 C, at a barometric pressure of 760 m.m.

If the barometer varies from 760 m.m. a correction of 1 C for each 30 m.m. of variation should be applied (e.g. under 770 m.m. of pressure 90 c.c. of distillate should come over at or under 140.3 C, whilst under 750 m.m. the same amount of distillate should cover over at 139.7 C)

III. Process of denaturation

  1. No denaturant shall be used until a sample thereof has been approved of the Excise Commissioner.
  2. Not less than 50 gallons of spirit shall be denatured at one time.
  3. The light caoutchoucine and mineral pyridine basis shall be added in the proportion of ½ per cent of each of spirit of at least 50 per cent over-proof. The denaturants shall be mixed with spirit in immediate presence of an officer of the Excise department not below the rank of sub-inspector.
