Significance and Use4.1 Refractory metal powders, such as tungsten and molyb-denum, are usually produced by hydrogen reduction at hightemperatures. Thus, they usually contain numerous large,strongly-sintered agglomerates. Many of the man

9、ufacturingprocesses using these powders involve a milling step or somesimilar treatment or depend on the individual particulate size,not on the agglomerate size.4Thus, a knowledge of theindividual particulate size distribution, not the agglomeratesize distribution, is usually desired from a particle

10、 size analysisof these powders. This practice provides a procedure forbreaking down agglomerates into their constituent particles(de-agglomeration), without excessive fracture of the indi-vidual particles. The procedure is often referred to as labora-tory milling or rod milling.4.2 The laboratory mi

11、lling conditions specified in this guidehave been in use since 1965 as part of Test Method B 430. Thisguide was first published as a separate, stand-alone standard in1995 because of its applicability in preparing powder samplesfor analysis by other methods (for example, Test MethodsB 761 and B 822),

12、 in addition to Test Method B 430. Informa-tion on the development and establishment of the millingconditions here specified can be found in the footnotedreference.54.3 The milling procedure described in this practice doesnot necessarily break down only agglomerates without fractur-ing individual pa

Apparatus5.1 Milling BottleThere are two alternative materials forthe milling container:5.1.1 Glass BottleRound laboratory solution bottle,250-mL capacity6, or a 250-mL, 140-mm high, 60-mm diam-eter, wide-mouth, flat-bottom centrifuge bottle, with cap orstopper, or5.1.2 Stainless Steel Bottl

21、available to give a bottle rpm of 145,the bottle can be either (1) set up on a lathe, or (2) built up in diameter andused on a faster rpm mill.5.4 Screen, No. 20 (850-m), and Bottom Pan.6. Procedure6.1 Place 30 6 0.1 g of tungsten, molybdenum, rhenium, ortantalum metal, or 50 6 0.1 g of tungsten car

22、bide powder in themilling bottle containing the 50 tungsten milling rods.6.2 Seal the milling bottle and rotate on the jar roll mill for60 min6 15 s at a bottle speed of 145 6 5 rpm. After the first5 min, check to be sure the rods are cascading inside the bottleby listening for the fast-paced, repea

23、ted “clinking” sound thatthe cascading rods make. If the rods are not cascading, stop themill, set the bottle upright momentarily, then replace the bottleon the mill and continue milling for the remaining 55 min (ifthe rods are now cascading; if not, repeat setting the bottleupright and restarting u

24、ntil they are).6.3 After milling, immediately screen the powder through aNo. 20 (850-m) screen to remove the milling rods. Dislodgeany milled powder that might remain in the bottle by placing acouple of screened rods in the bottle and “whipping” for a fewturns.NOTE 2Warning: The fresh metal surfaces

25、 produced during millingmay have a tendency to rapidly oxidize when the milling bottle is opened.Use caution when opening the bottle to avoid fire or explosion.6.4 Remove all the milled powder from the bottom pan andplace in a sample container.7. Particle Size Analysis7.1 If necessary, disperse the

26、milled powder according toGuide B 821.7.2 Immediately perform the desired particle size analysis.NOTE 3Since milled powder has a greater tendency than as-suppliedpowder to pick up moisture and oxidize, the analysis procedure should beinitiated immediately after milling is completed. For all practica

27、l pur-poses, however, two runs can be made in succession on each milledpowder. If more than two runs on the same milled powder are desired,provisions may be taken to lessen (elimination is not possible) the effectof humidity on the milled powder, such as immediate splitting of thesample and storage
