1、Designation: C886 98 (Reapproved 2015) An American National StandardStandard Test Method forScleroscope Hardness Testing of Carbon and GraphiteMaterials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C886; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption o

2、r, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the apparatus and procedure fordetermining the hardnes

3、s of carbon and graphite materialsusing the Model C-2 scleroscope2with the hammer calibratedfor use on carbon and graphite materials with particles smallerthan 0.8 mm.31.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This

4、 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 and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method3.1 The specimen is held in position, and the height ofreb

6、ound of a diamond-tipped hammer is observed and recordedas the hardness number.4. Significance and Use4.1 The scleroscope is a rebound hardness tester with a scaledivided into 140 equal parts. For carbon and graphite materials,there is no established correlation between the Scleroscopehardness scale

7、 and other hardness scales. The test is useful inthe evaluation and the manufacturing control of carbon andgraphite materials.5. Interferences5.1 Lack of alignment of the instrument, as specified inSection 10, will cause low readings.5.2 The specimen must be held firmly in position and musthave adeq

8、uate support from the anvil on which the samplerests. Neglect of alignment, positioning, or support will resultin low readings.5.3 Rough surface finish, above 3175-nm AA, may causelow readings.5.4 Indentations that are superimposed or spaced too closelytogether (approximately 3 mm) will cause incorr

9、ect readings.6. Apparatus6.1 Table, or equivalent, firm, for support.6.2 Scleroscope, Model C-2, equipped with a hammercalibrated by the manufacturer for use on carbon and graphitematerials.7. Test Specimen7.1 The specimen may be of any convenient size, but testsurfaces smaller than 5 mm by 5 mm are

10、 not recommended.7.2 The recommended specimen shall have a minimumthickness of 5 mm.7.3 The test surface shall not exceed 3175 nm AA in surfacefinish.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetroleum Products, Liquid Fuels, and Lubricants and is the direct responsibility

For all specimens, the test surfaces must bemaintained normal to the axis of the scleroscope tube.8. Calibration and Standardization8.1 Check the cali

16、bration of the scleroscope with carbon testblocks obtained from the instrument manufacturer.8.2 Make a series of tests on carbon test blocks that coverthe range of hardness to be tested.8.3 Make at least five tests on each carbon test block. Do notmake any tests closer than 6 mm from the sides of th

17、e testblocks.8.4 Consider the instrument calibrated if 90 % of the read-ings deviate no more than 64%,or63 points, whichever islarger, from the mean of the hardness numbers stamped on thecarbon test blocks.9. Conditioning9.1 Allow the specimen to reach equilibrium with roomtemperature air, and test

18、under the same conditions in accor-dance with Specification E171.9.2 Keep specimens free of contamination.10. Procedure10.1 Place the instrument on a firm support.10.2 Level the instrument using the plumb bob or bubblelevel.10.3 Check the calibration in accordance with Section 8.10.4 Place the speci
