3 Principle

Weigh out a certain amount of specimens of coking solid products, heat them over soft fire to get rid of most of the volatile matters, and place them in 900℃±10℃ muffle furnace where they are incinerated to constant weight. The percentage of the mass of residues accounting for the mass of specimens is regarded as ash content.
