1、Designation: C 357 07Standard Test Method forBulk Density of Granular Refractory Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 357; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A numb

2、er in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers a procedure for determining thebulk density of granular refractory materials, commercialproducts which usually hav

3、e particles that are retained on a0.265-in. (6.7-mm) or coarser sieve.NOTE 1This test method is not suitable for materials that hydrate inboiling water.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of thi

4、s standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2E11 Specification for Wire Cloth and Sieves for TestingPurposes3. Significance and Use3.1 Granular refractory materials

5、may be either refractorygrain raw materials that are used in the manufacture of finishedrefractory products, or bulk granular refractory materials thatare sold, with or without some degree of processing, torefractory consumers for various uses. In either case, charac-terizing the properties of a gra

6、nular refractory material isessential in evaluating its quality or consistency of quality andin determining suitability for end use. One of the importantproperties is bulk density because of its relationship to endproduct quality, usage, and performance.3.2 The refractories producer can use this tes

7、t method as oneof the quality-control tests for his manufactured or minedrefractory grain raw materials or for evaluating potentialrefractory grain raw materials.3.3 For the refractories consumer, the principal use of thistest method is in the evaluation of the quality or the consistencyof quality o

8、f the granular material in purchased refractorymixes or in bulk granular refractory materials used by theconsumer.3.4 This is a primary test method, and thus is suitable for usein specifications, quality control, and research and develop-ment. It can also serve as a referee test method in purchasing

9、contracts or agreements and as a base for development of morerapid, secondary test methods for use in quality control onmanufactured refractory raw materials.3.5 Fundamental assumptions inherent in this test methodare that the sample is representative of the material in general,the particle size of

10、the sample is within the range specified bythe test method, the material is not readily hydratable, and thesize and quantity of pores in the material permits removal ofsurface water without drainage from the pores themselves.Deviation from any of these assumptions negates the useful-ness of the test

11、 results.3.6 In interpreting the results of this test method, it must berecognized that the specific gravity of the material as well asthe porosity affects the value obtained for bulk density. Thus,comparisons of results should only be made between likematerials or with full recognition of inherent

12、differencesbetween the materials being compared.4. Apparatus4.1 Laboratory Jaw Crusher or Rolls, for crushing samplesto pass a 0.265-in.

Preparation of Test Sample6.1 Crush each sample when necessary and screen dry topass the 0.265-in. (6.7-mm) sieve and be retained on the No. 8(2.36-mm) mesh sieve

20、 (Note 2). Take care to adjust the crusherso as to obtain some particles that will be retained on the0.265-in. sieve, thereby increasing the amount retained on thefiner sieve. The portion not passing the coarser sieve may berecrushed until it passes. The sieving may be carried out in amechanical dev

21、ice or by hand.6.2 After the sieving, treat various types of materials asfollows:6.2.1 With material that has been calcined and cooled notmore than 2 h prior to testing, blow free of dust with clean air(moisture- and oil-free).6.2.2 Wash other materials in a stream of tap water for atleast 5 min or

22、until all dust is removed. Oven-dry overnight at220 to 230F (105 to 110C).7. Procedure7.1 Divide the sample by quartering or riffling to obtain aportion for testing of about 25 cm3in bulk and weighingbetween 60 and 90 g, depending upon the bulk density. Weighthis sample to the nearest 10 mg and reco

23、rd as the dry weight.7.2 Place the test sample in a beaker of water and boil for 1h during which the grains shall be completely covered withwater. Cool the sample to room temperature by running coldwater into the beaker or by a similar method.7.3 Rinse the clean buret (Note 3) thoroughly and introdu

24、ceapproximately 25 mL of distilled water at room temperature.Allow it to stand until drops of water on the sides settle into thebody of liquid.NOTE 3Clean the burette or the Le Chatelier Specific Gravity Bottlefrequently with a good cleaning solution such as liquid soap to ensurecomplete drainage wi

25、thout drops of water forming on the inside walls.7.3.1 Alternately rinse the clean specific gravity bottle andfill with distilled water at room temperature as close to the 0mark as possible. Allow it to stand until drops of water on thesides settle into the body of liquid. Take a clean piece of spon

26、gethat is hooked to a stainless steel or copper wire and is longenough to reach to the bottom of the straight section. Insert thesponge into the bottle and with circular motion try to mop upany excess water from the sides. Make sure that the spongesurface does not touch the top of the water meniscus

27、. Recordthe level of water in the bottle to the nearest 0.05 mL indicatingif the level is below or above the 0 mark. If the level is at 0mark then record that.7.4 Totally saturate blotting cloth (smooth linen or lint freecotton) with water, then gently wring out to a no-drip condi-tion. Spread out d

28、amp cloth (landscape orientation) and pourwet grain carefully onto cloth, with no loss of particles. With asmall metal spatula, spread grain over left half of cloth to asingle grain layer. Fold right half of cloth over top of grain andgently pat to blot, without abrading any grain edges if possible.

29、Open cloth and, using edges, roll grain into center, then ontoleft half of cloth; repeat these steps as necessary until grainshave lost their sheen and no grains are adhering together. Careshould be taken to avoid excessive blotting that will induceerror by withdrawing water from the pores of the sp

Pour grains into the buret and shake so as tocause the grains and drops of water to submerge into the water,with no air bubbles attache

Read the new position on themeniscus to the nearest 0.05 mL without delay and record thedifference between the first and second readings as the volumeof the grains.7.5.1 Alternately pour grains into the specific gravity bottleslowly and shake slightly so as to cause the grains and drops ofwater t

If the original reading was above 0 then subtractthat from the second reading. If the original reading was below0 then add that to the second reading to obtain the volum

When the loss for the boiled material is higher thanthat of the dry material by more than 0.50 %, the results shallbe discarded and the test method considered in
