1、Designation: C 566 97 (Reapproved 2004)Standard Test Method forTotal Evaporable Moisture Content of Aggregate by Drying1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 566; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the

2、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 covers the

3、determination of the per-centage of evaporable moisture in a sample of aggregate bydrying both surface moisture and moisture in the pores of theaggregate. Some aggregate may contain water that is chemi-cally combined with the minerals in the aggregate. Such wateris not evaporable and is not included

4、 in the percentagedetermined by this test method.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values stated in parentheses are provided forinformation only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is ther

5、esponsibility 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.

8、finitions:3.1.1 For definitions of terms used in this test method, referto Terminology C 125.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is sufficiently accurate for usualpurposes, such as adjusting batch quantities of ingredients forconcrete. It will generally measure the moisture in the testsample

9、 more reliably than the sample can be made to representthe aggregate supply. In cases where the aggregate itself isaltered by heat, or where more refined measurement is re-quired, the test should be conducted using a ventilated,controlled temperature oven.4.2 Large particles of coarse aggregate, esp

10、ecially thoselarger than 50 mm (2 in.), will require greater time for themoisture to travel from the interior of the particle to thesurface. The user of this test method should determine by trialif rapid drying methods provide sufficient accuracy for theintended use when drying large size particles.

11、5. Apparatus5.1 BalanceA balance or scale accurate, readable, andsensitive to within 0.1 % of the test load at any point within therange of use. Within any interval equal to 10 % of the capacityof the balance or scale used to determine mass, the loadindication shall be accurate within 0.1 % of the d

12、ifference inmasses.5.2 Source of HeatA ventilated oven capable of maintain-ing the temperature surrounding the sample at 110 6 5C (2306 9F). Where close control of the temperature is not required(see 4.1), other suitable sources of heat may be used, such as anelectric or gas hot plate, electric heat

13、 lamps, or a ventilatedmicrowave oven.5.3 Sample ContainerA container not affected by the heat,of sufficient volume to contain the sample without danger ofspilling, and of such shape that the depth of sample will notexceed one fifth of the least lateral dimension.1This test method is under the juris

14、diction of ASTM Committee C09 onConcrete and Concrete Aggregates and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeC09.20 on Normal Weight Aggregates.Current edition approved February 1, 2004.

17、r use with a hot plate, or any shallow flat-bottomed metal panis suitable with heat lamps or oven. Note the precaution in 5.3.1.5.4 StirrerA metal spoon or spatula of convenient size.6. Sampling6.1 Sample in accordance with Practice D 75, except for thesample size.6.2 Secure a sample of the aggregat

18、e representative of themoisture content in the supply being tested and having a massnot less than the amount listed in Table 1. Protect the sampleagainst loss of moisture prior to determining the mass.7. Procedure7.1 Determine the mass of the sample to the nearest 0.1 %.7.2 Dry the sample thoroughly

19、 in the sample container bymeans of the selected source of heat, exercising care to avoidloss of any particles. Very rapid heating may cause someparticles to explode, resulting in loss of particles. Use acontrolled temperature oven when excessive heat may alter thecharacter of the aggregate, or wher

20、e more precise measurementis required. If a source of heat other than the controlledtemperature oven is used, stir the sample during drying toaccelerate the operation and avoid localized overheating. Whenusing a microwave oven, stirring of the sample is optional.7.2.1 CautionWhen using a microwave o

21、ven, occasion-ally minerals are present in aggregates that may cause thematerial to overheat and explode. If this occurs it can damagethe microwave oven.7.3 When a hot plate is used, drying can be expedited by thefollowing procedure. Add sufficient anhydrous denatured alco-hol to cover the moist sam

22、ple. Stir and allow suspendedmaterial to settle. Decant as much of the alcohol as possiblewithout losing any of the sample. Ignite the remaining alcoholand allow it to burn off during drying over the hot plate.7.3.1 WarningExercise care to control the ignition op-eration to prevent injury or damage

23、from the burning alcohol.7.4 The sample is thoroughly dry when further heatingcauses, or would cause, less than 0.1 % additional loss in mass.7.5 Determine the mass of the dried sample to the nearest0.1 % after it has cooled sufficiently not to damage the balance.8. Calculation8.1 Calculate total ev

24、aporable moisture content as follows:p 5 100 W 2 D!/D (1)where:p = total evaporable moisture content of sample, percent,W = mass of original sample, g, andD = mass of dried sample, g.8.2 Surface moisture content is equal to the differencebetween the total evaporable moisture content and the absorp-t

25、ion, with all values based on the mass of a dry sample.Absorption may be determined in accordance with TestMethod C 127 or Test Method C 128.9. Precision and Bias9.1 Precision:9.1.1 The within-laboratory single operator standard devia-tion for moisture content of aggregates has been found to be0.28

26、% (Note 2). Therefore, results of two properly conductedtests by the same operator in the same laboratory on the sametype of aggregate sample should not differ by more than 0.79 %(Note 2) from each other.9.1.2 The between-laboratory standard deviation for mois-ture content of aggregates has been fou

27、nd to be 0.28 % (Note2). Therefore, results of properly conducted tests from twolaboratories on the same aggregate sample should not differ bymore than 0.79 % (Note 2) from each other.9.1.3 Test data used to derive the above precision indiceswere obtained from samples dried to a constant mass in adr

28、ying oven maintained at 110 6 5C. When other dryingprocedures are used, the precision of the results may besignificantly different than that indicated above.NOTE 2These numbers represent, respectively, the 1s and 2s limits asdescribed in Practice C 670.9.2 Bias:9.2.1 When experimental results are co

29、mpared with knownvalues from accurately compounded specimens, the followinghas been derived.9.2.1.1 The bias of moisture tests on one aggregate materialhas been found to have a mean of +0.06 %. The bias ofindividual test values from the same aggregate material hasbeen found with 95 % confidence to l

30、ie between 0.07 %and +0.20 %.9.2.1.2 The bias of moisture tests on a second aggregatematerial has been found to have a mean of +0.01 %. The biasof individual test values from the same aggregate material hasbeen found with 95 % confidence to lie between 0.14 %and +0.14 %.9.2.1.3 The bias of moisture

31、tests overall on both aggregatematerials has been found to have a mean of +0.03 %. The biasof individual test values overall from both aggregate materialshas been found with 95 % confidence to lie between 0.12 %and +0.18 %.9.2.2 Test data used to derive the above bias statementswere obtained from sa
