1、Designation: C865 17Standard Practice forFiring Refractory Concrete Specimens1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C865; 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 parenthe

2、ses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the firing of specimens made fromrefractory co

3、ncretes (castable refractories) in accordance withPractice C862 for cast specimens. The procedure is alsorecommended for heating rates to be used for high-temperaturetest methods such as Test Methods C16, C583, etc., when thesemethods are used to test refractory concretes.1.2 The values stated in in

The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.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, h

For temperatures up to2500 F (1370 C) an electrically heated kiln is preferred, butgas- or oil-fired kilns can be used for all temperatures, providedthe heating rates specified can be

10、maintained, the flame of theburners does not impinge directly on any specimen, and thefurnace atmosphere contains a minimum of 0.5 % oxygen with0 % combustibles.5. Preparation of Samples5.1 Samples are prepared by casting in accordance withPractice C862. If the sample size of the cast specimen is th

11、esame as that specified for the test, it can be used directly.However, cutting samples of the required size from larger castblocks will often be necessary (Note 1). In this case, it isrecommended that the samples be cut with a diamond saw.After cutting, the samples should be dried at 230 F (110 C)fo

12、r a minimum of 18 h. All cut samples should have sharpedges and corners and should not show pull-out of grains onthe cut surfaces. For some low-strength castables, drying priorto cutting may be needed to increase their strength andresistance to pull-outs.NOTE 1Specimens cut from the interior of larg

13、e cement-bondedcastables shapes may be stronger than specimens cut from small castshapes because the interior of large cast shapes are exposed to high-pressure steam during dryout which causes more complete hydration ofthe cement.5.2 Some types of castables, especially those containingaggregates of

14、a relatively low hardness (such as lightweightcastables), may be cut on a dry saw. This procedure isacceptable provided that specimens with sharp corners andedges, which show no signs of grain pull-out at the cutsurfaces, are obtained.1This practice is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee C08 on

18、(TBT) Committee.1Mon Apr 30 54 6. Procedure6.1 Label all specimens with ceramic ink or ceramic cray-ons.6.2 Place the specimens in the kiln so that each specimenwill rest on the surface formed by its longest and smallestdimension (that is, the 9 by 212-in. (230 by 64-mm) surface for9-in. straight, o

19、r the 6 by 1-in. (152 by 25-mm) surface for 6 by1 by 1-in. samples). Support each specimen on a flat supportingbrick, which does not soften or shrink at the intended soaktemperature. Place between the test specimens and the support-ing brick a layer of suitable refractory material that is nonre-acti

21、 64 100 552 by 2 51 by 51 300 1701 by 1 25 by 25 700 380At temperatures over 1500 F, a heating rate up to 700 F(390 C) h is permissible. Generally, a slower heating rate doesnot affect the properties of the specimens adversely. Thus,when smaller and larger specimens are fired together, theheating ra

22、te applicable to the larger specimens should be used.NOTE 2Different heating rates are specified for various samples toensure that the difference in temperature between the center and thesurface of the specimen does not exceed 45 F (25 C). Experimentalevidence indicates that cracking may occur when

23、a castable sample isheated too rapidly. The safe heat-up rate increases with decreasing samplesize.6.4 Hold the specimens at the specified temperature for 5 h.During the holding period, a furnace atmosphere containing aminimum of 0.5 % oxygen with 0 % combustibles should bemaintained. For special hi

24、gh-temperature tests, a longer orshorter holding time may be required. Please refer to theappropriate test method for details.6.5 Measure the temperature within the kiln by means of anappropriate calibrated thermocouple. Refer to SpecificationE230, Tables 1 and 2, for tolerances and upper temperatur

25、elimits for use of various thermocouples. An alternative methodis the use of a calibrated optical pyrometer where applicable.Make temperature readings at intervals of 15 min or less whenthe temperature is not recorded and controlled automatically.The use of cone plaques is advised as a guide to temp
