1、Designation: C 326 09Standard Test Method forDrying and Firing Shrinkages of Ceramic Whiteware Clays1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 326; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revisi

2、on. 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 linearshrinkage of ceramic whiteware clays, both unfired and fired.1.2 The values s

3、tated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its

4、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 Use2.1 The purpose of this test is to obtain values of shrinkageafter drying and firing of clays

5、 or bodies or both, under variousprocessing conditions to enable designers to determine theproper size of mold or die so as to produce a predeterminedsize of fired ware.3. Test Specimens3.1 Test specimens shall be round bars approximately 0.75in. (19 mm) in diameter by 5 in. (127 mm) in length.3.2 T

6、est specimens may be prepared either by casting orplastic forming, as circumstances require. At least ten speci-mens shall be prepared. For cast specimens the molds may beeither one-piece, or two- or more-part molds; in either instancesufficient space shall be provided to allow solid casting without

7、piping. Where plastic-forming is employed, the clay-watermass shall be brought to a consistency that permits the makingof specimens rigid enough to allow careful handling withoutdistortion immediately after the test specimen is made. Plastic-formed test specimens shall be made either by extrusion or

8、 bypressing in a suitable metal mold. Where a vacuum pugmill isused, a vacuum of not less than 25 in. (635 mm) Hg shall bemaintained during the forming operation. Where no vacuumattachment is used, the plastic clay shall be thoroughly hand-wedged to eliminate entrapped air as a preliminary to formin

9、gtest pieces.3.3 The test specimens, cast or plastic-formed, shall besuitably identified and marked with shrinkage reference lines 4in. (102 mm) apart on the long axis of the specimen. Theshrinkage reference lines may conveniently be made with agage with knife edges at zero and 4 in. (102 mm) and ma

10、rkingmust be done as soon as the bars can be handled withoutdistortion.3.4 The marked specimens shall then be placed on a lightlyoiled pallet with semi-circular grooves 0.40 in. (10.2 mm) indiameter and allowed to dry at 68 to 100F (20 to 40C) for24h. The purpose of the semi-circular (half round) gr

11、ooves is tomaintain straightness of the bars during drying. During thispreliminary drying period, the bars shall be turned 90 severaltimes at 2-h intervals to eliminate possible warping in thevertical direction. After the initial drying period, the specimensshall be placed in a drying oven at 200 to

12、 230F (100 to 110C)and further dried for 24 h.3.5 The drying shrinkage of the test specimens should bedetermined in accordance with Sections 4 and 5. The speci-mens can now be fired according to a suitable firing scheduleto the desired temperature and the procedures of Sections 4 and5 applied to det

13、ermine the total shrinkage.3.6 The test bars must be clearly identified as to whetherthey were cast or extruded, and shrinkage data likewiseidentified because of slight differences in shrinkage betweencast and extruded bars.4. Shrinkage Measurement4.1 Measure the distance between shrinkage reference

14、marks on dried or fired specimens to the closest 0.004 in. (0.1mm) with calipers of suitable accuracy. Record the average ofat least ten measurements (one measurement on each of thegroup of ten or more specimens).5. Calculation5.1 Calculate the linear drying shrinkage as a percentage ofplastic lengt

Calculate as fo

Precision and Bias6.1 The direction of flow in forming influences the orienta-tion of the clay particles and the shrinkage. The shrinkagevalue should be related to the method of formin

20、g as well as thedimension of the ware.6.2 When the original reference points are 100 mm apart,the precision of the shrinkage measurement is 6 0.1 %.6.3 Measurements of drying shrinkage on one dimension ofspecimens all formed by the same method should yield astandard deviation of 0.1 % or less.6.4 Me

21、asurement of total linear shrinkage after drying andfiring on one dimension of specimens should yield a standarddeviation of 0.25 % or less.7.
