Summary of Test Meth

6、od3.1 A sample of carbon black is passed through two sievesto isolate a fraction of uniform size. The most spherical pelletsfrom this portion are selected and brought into contact with ameasuring device as force is applied. Pellet hardness is themaximum force required to crush the pellets.4. Signifi

7、cance and Use4.1 Pellet hardness is related to several carbon black char-acteristics. Among these are mass strength and attrition. Thesubsequent level of dispersion obtained in some mixed com-pounds containing the carbon black may be affected by pellethardness. Acceptable pellet hardness must be agr

8、eed to by theuser and the producer.NOTE 1Test Method D5230 is the preferred standard for testing ofindividual pellet hardness. It is recognized that Test Method D3313 relieson operator judgement, thus adding an additional source of variation forthis test.5. Apparatus5.1 Pellet-Hardness Tester, of a

9、type capable of measuringthe pellet hardness of the individual pellet in grams-force(centinewtons). A suitable tester must exhibit the followingcharacteristics:5.1.1 Initial contact force must be applied so that the forcearea rests lightly on the pellet before proceeding,5.1.2 It must be capable of

10、applying force at a constant rate,5.1.3 It must possess an accurate means of measuring theapplied force, and5.1.4 During the test, the applied force and base plate mustbe controlled so as not to cause the pellet to move or roll priorto crushing.NOTE 2A two-pan torsion balance with 100-g dial and tra

11、nsparentfoot mounted so it can be moved directly over the pellet will serve toconvert a balance to a pellet hardness tester, as needed.5.2 Mechanical Sieve Shaker, conforming to Test MethodD1511.5.3 SievesU.S. Standard sieves or equivalents, conform-ing to Specification E11. Sieve Nos. 12 (1700-m) a

A very low-densityurethane foam sponge has been found to be acceptable.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Comm

United StatesNOTICE: This standard has either been superseded and replaced by a new version or withdrawn.Contact ASTM International (www.astm.org) for the latest information16. Sampling6.1 Samples shall be taken in accordance with PracticesD1799 or D1900.7. Calibration7.1 Equi

16、pment used for this test shall be calibrated by deadweights or a force-measuring device that will verify theaccuracy of the equipment over the range to be tested.8. Procedure8.1 Prepare a sample of carbon black, as follows:8.1.1 Stack the No. 12 above the No. 14 sieve with thereceiver pan on the bot

17、tom.NOTE 3It is permissible to use multiples of sieves to screen severalsamples simultaneously.8.1.2 Place the sample in the top sieve and install the cover.Transfer the assembly to the shaking device.8.1.3 Allow the sieve assembly to shake for 60, 0 +10 s,with the hammer operating.8.2 Remove the as

18、sembly from the shaking device. Selectthe more spherical pellets retained on the No. 14 sieve.8.3 The more spherical pellets may be selected by pouringapproximately2gofpellets retained on the No. 14 sieve intoone end of the shallow container. Tilt the container slightly tocause the most spherical pe

19、llets to roll to the opposite end.8.4 Take 20 or 50 of the most spherical pellets for testing.Twenty pellets are tested in normal applications. Fifty pelletsmay be tested for critical applications. Critical applications aredetermined by agreement between the customer and supplier.Handle individual p

20、ellets, when transported or positioned fortest, or both, with the sponge-tipped forceps.8.5 Position pellet to be tested on a solid vibration-freesurface so as to be near the center area of the applied force.8.6 Bring the measuring device in contact with the pellet,but do not apply any force. This s

21、tep is most important whentesting soft pellets, which tend to fracture immediately orprematurely due to impact on initial contact.8.7 Apply force at a constant rate of approximately 5 cN/s(g force/s) until the pellet is fractured. Record the indicatedvalue to the nearest whole number.8.8 Repeat 8.5

22、8.7 until the appropriate number of pelletshave been tested.9. Report9.1 Report the following information:9.1.1 Proper identification of the sample,9.1.2 Average value in centinewtons (grams-force) roundedto the nearest millinewton (nearest 0.1 gram-force),9.1.3 Maximum as the highest individual val

23、ue in centin-ewtons (grams-force) rounded to a whole number,9.1.4 Number of pellets tested, and9.1.5 Any other results as determined between the purchaserand the seller.10. Precision and Bias10.1 This precision and bias has been prepared in accor-dance with Practice D4483. Refer to this practice for

24、 terminol-ogy and other statistical details.10.2 The precision results in this precision and bias give anestimate of the precision as described below. The precisionparameters should not be used for acceptance/rejection testingof any group of materials without documentation that they areapplicable to

25、 those particular materials and the specific testingprotocols that include this test method.10.3 A Type 1 inter-laboratory precision program was con-ducted in 1990. Both repeatability and reproducibility repre-sent short term testing conditions. Seven laboratories testedthree carbon blacks (D, E, an

26、d F) twice on two different days.Atest result is the value obtained from an average of 20 pellets.Acceptable difference values were not measured.10.4 The result of the precision calculations were given inTable 1 with the material arranged in ascending “mean level”order.10.5 The precision for the poo

27、led values for individualpellet hardness may be expressed as follows:10.5.1 RepeatabilityThe repeatability, (r), of the indi-vidual pellet hardness result has been established as 26.4 %.Two single test results (or determinations) that differ by morethan 26.4 % must be considered suspect and dictates

28、 that someappropriate investigative action be taken.10.5.2 ReproducibilityThe reproducibility, (R), of the in-dividual pellet hardness result has been established as 74.1 %.Two single test results (or determinations) produced in separatelaboratories that differ by more than 74.1 % must be considered

29、suspect and dictates that some appropriate investigative ortechnical/commercial action be taken.TABLE 1 ASTM Test Method Precision: Type 1 Carbon BlackIndividual Pellet Hardness (D3313)AMaterial Mean Level, cNWithin Laboratories Between Laboratoriessr (r) SR (R)D 21.4 2.64 34.8 6.20 81.8E 39.0 3.41
