Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 1017 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 27, Solid mineral fuels, Subcommittee SC 5,

This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 1017:1985), which has been technically

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 1017:2006(E)

Brown coals and lignites — Determination of acetone-soluble
material (“resinous substance”) in the benzene-soluble extract
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies a method of determining the mass fraction of acetone-soluble material
(“resinous substance”) in the benzene-soluble extract from brown coals and lignites.
NOTE The acetone extract will also contain a percentage of wax dissolved simultaneously with the "resinous
substance".
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 975, Brown coals and lignites — Determination of yield of benzene-soluble extract — Semi-automatic
method
3 Principle
The sample of benzene-soluble extract from brown coal or lignite obtained by the procedure described in
ISO 975 is extracted with acetone at a temperature of 18 to 22 °C. The soluble fraction is filtered or
centrifuged off and, after evaporation of the solvent, dried to constant mass.
The percentage of acetone-soluble material is calculated from the mass of residue after drying.
4 Reagent
4.1 Acetone, of analytical reagent grade.
WARNING — Acetone is flammable, and toxic by inhalation, ingestion or skin absorption
5 Apparatus
5.1 Centrifuge, capable of operating at 1 600 r/min.
The rotational frequency of the centrifuge shall be sufficient to ensure separation of the soluble fraction from
the parent coal.
