1、Designation: B761 17Standard Test Method forParticle Size Distribution of Metal Powders and RelatedCompounds by X-Ray Monitoring of Gravity Sedimentation1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B761; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption

2、or, 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. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of particlesize distributions of m

3、etal powders. Experience has shown thatthis test method is satisfactory for the analysis of elementaltungsten, tungsten carbide, molybdenum, and tantalumpowders, all with an as-supplied estimated average particle sizeof 6 m or less, as determined by Test Method B330. Othermetal powders (for example,

4、 elemental metals, carbides, andnitrides) may be analyzed using this test method with cautionas to significance until actual satisfactory experience is devel-oped (see 7.2). The procedure covers the determination ofparticle size distribution of the powder in the following twoconditions:1.1.1 As the

5、powder is supplied (as-supplied), and1.1.2 After the powder has been deagglomerated by rodmilling as described in Practice B859.1.2 This test method is applicable to particles of uniformdensity and composition having a particle size distributionrange of 0.1 up to 100 m.1.2.1 However, the relationshi

Significance and Use4.1 This test method is useful to both producers andpurchasers of powders, as outlined in 1.1 and 1.2, in determin-ing particle size distribution for product specifications, manu-facturing control, development, and research.4.2 Users shoul

21、d be aware that sample concentrations usedin this test method may not be what is considered ideal by someauthorities, and that the range of this test method extends intothe region where Brownian movement could be a factor inconventional sedimentation. Within the range of this testmethod, neither the
