1、Designation: B212 09Standard Test Method forApparent Density of Free-Flowing Metal Powders Using theHall Flowmeter Funnel1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B212; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the

2、 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.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test method describes a

3、 procedure for determiningthe apparent density of free-flowing metal powders, and mixedpowders; and is suitable for only those powders that will flowunaided through the specified Hall Flowmeter funnel.1.2 With the exception of density values, for which theg/cm3unit is the industry standard, the valu

4、es stated in SI unitsare to be regarded as the standard. Values in inch-pound unitsare shown in parentheses and result from conversion inaccordance with IEEE/ASTM Standard SI 10. They may beapproximate and are only for information.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concer

5、ns, 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.

8、te volume under controlled conditions. The mass ofpowder per unit volume is determined and reported as apparentdensity, Hall (ADH).5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a guide for evaluation of animportant physical characteristic of a powder known as theapparent density. The measured

9、 apparent density bears arelationship to the mass of powder that will fill a fixed volumedie cavity. The degree of correlation between the results of thistest and the performance of powders during use may vary witheach particular application. Note, however, that the presence ofmoisture, oils, steari

10、c acid, stearates, waxes, and the tempera-ture of the powder mass may alter the physical characteristicsof the powder.6.

16、6.5 Balance A laboratory balance, having a capacity of atleast 200 g and a sensitivity of 0.001 g.6.6 Spatula A non-magnetic spatula of suitable dimen-sions for leveling off the excess powder on top of the densitycup.7. Test Specimen7.1 The test specimen shall consist of a volume of approxi-mately 3

17、0 to 40 cm3of metal powder obtained in accordancewith Practices B215.7.2 The test specimen shall be tested as sampled.8. Procedure8.1 Weigh the empty density cup to the nearest 0.01 g or,alternatively, place the empty density cup on the balance andtare the balance to zero.8.2 Carefully load the test

18、 specimen into the flowmeterfunnel and permit it to run into the density cup through thedischarge orifice. Take care not to move the density cup.FIG. 1 Flowmeter Apparatus Hall FunnelFIG. 2 Density Cup (25 6 0.03 cm2)B212 0928.3 After the powder has completely filled the cup and hasbegun to overflow
