2、n, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) 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 cove

3、rs the determination of truespecific gravity of refractory materials under prescribed con-ditions. It is not applicable to materials attacked by water.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.3 This standar

4、d 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.

Significance and Use3.1 The true specific gravity of a material is the ratio

6、 of itstrue density, determined at a specific temperature, to the truedensity of water, determined at a specific temperature. Thus,the true specific gravity of a material is a primary propertywhich is related to chemical and mineralogical composition.3.2 For refractory raw materials and products the

7、 truespecific gravity is a useful value for: classification, detectingdifferences in chemical composition between supposedly likesamples, indicating mineralogical phases or phase changes,calculating total porosity when the bulk density is known, andfor any other test method which requires this value

8、 for thecalculation of results.3.3 This test method is a primary standard method which issuitable for use in specifications, quality control, and researchand development. It can also serve as a referee test method inpurchasing contracts or agreements.3.4 Fundamental assumptions inherent in this test

9、 methodare the following:3.4.1 The sample is representative of the material in general,3.4.2 The total sample has been reduced to the particle sizespecified,3.4.3 No impurity has been introduced during processing ofthe sample,3.4.4 The sample itself is not magnetic and all magneticmaterial introduce

10、d during processing of the sample has beenremoved,3.4.5 The material is not hydratable or reactive with water,and3.4.6 The test method has been conducted in a meticulousmanner.3.4.7 Deviation from any of these assumptions negates theusefulness of the results.3.5 In interpreting the results of this t

11、est method it must berecognized that the specified sample particle size does notguarantee that all closed pores have been eliminated. Theamount of residual closed pores may vary between materials oreven between samples of the same or like materials, and thespecified sample particle size is not the s

12、ame as that specifiedfor Test Method C 604. The values generated by this testmethod may, therefore, be close approximations rather thanaccurate representations of true specific gravities. Thus, com-parisons of results should only be judiciously made betweenlike materials tested by this test method o

Preparation of Sample5.1 Extract two walnut-sized pieces from different positionsin a solid specimen in such a way as to exclude any part of theoriginal exterior surface (skin surface).

17、When an average valueof specific gravity is desired, prepare a composite sample bytaking pieces in this manner from at least five differentspecimens.5.2 Crush the pieces between hardened steel surfaces to amaximum size of18 in. (3 mm). Thoroughly mix the crushedmaterial and reduce by quartering or r

18、iffling to a test sample of50 g.5.3 If the material submitted for test is already crushed orground, a representative portion of at least 500 g shall bethoroughly mixed and reduced by quartering or riffling.5.4 Grind the entire 50-g sample to pass an ASTM No. 100(150-m) sieve (equivalent to a 100-mes

19、h Tyler StandardSeries) (Note 2). The grinding may be done by hand or by amechanical sample grinder of such material and construction asto prevent the introduction of any impurity. Remove anymagnetic material introduced during crushing or grinding by amagnet. Special care should be taken in all stag

20、es of prepara-tion of the test sample not to exclude any portions that aredifficult to crush or grind.NOTE 2Detailed requirements for this sieve are given in SpecificationE11.5.5 Transfer the 50-g sample to a glass-stoppered weighingbottle and dry to constant weight at 105 to 110C (220 to230F).6. Pr

21、ocedure6.1 Make duplicate tests on material from the 50-g sample.Make all weighings to the nearest 0.1 mg.6.2 Dry the pycnometer at 105 to 110C (220 to 230F),cool in a desiccator, and weigh on an analytical balance.Record the weight as p. Fill the pycnometer with distilled waterat room temperature,

22、t, which should be between 60 and 75F(16 and 24C) and should not vary more than 0.5F (0.3C)during the test, and again weigh, recording the weight as W1.Infilling the pycnometer, there should be an overflow of waterthrough the capillary when the thermometer (stopper) isinserted. Wipe the excess water

23、 from the tip in such a manneras not to withdraw any water from the capillary. Place the capon the capillary tube, thoroughly dry any water adhering to theoutside of the pycnometer, and weigh as directed above.6.3 Empty the pycnometer and again dry it at 105 to 110C(220 to 230F). Place approximately

24、 1.5 mL of the sample inthe dry pycnometer, weigh, and record the weight as W. Fill thepycnometer to one fourth to one half of its capacity withdistilled water, and boil the water either under reduced pressure(Note 2) or at atmospheric pressure for 10 to 15 min. Boilingshould not be so vigorous as t

25、o cause loss of sample due topopping. Where boiling is done at atmospheric pressure, it isadvisable to insert a thin strip of paper with the stopper beforethe boiling operation. After boiling, fill the pycnometer withdistilled water, cool to room temperature, t, in a water bath,insert the thermomete

26、r stopper, wipe off excess water from thetip of the capillary tube, replace the cap, and thoroughly dry thepycnometer with a lintless towel. Weigh the pycnometer andcontents and report the weight as W2.7. Calculation7.1 Calculate the true specific gravity as follows:Sp gr, t/t 5 W 2 p!/W12 p! 2 W22
