Determine the diameter used for calculating thecross-sectional area of the test specimen to the nearest 0.01 in.(0.25 mm) by averaging two diameters measured at rightangles to each other at about mid-height of the specimen.6.5

32、 Specimen Preparation for Test Methods A and B:6.5.1 Resin, Silicate, and Silica MaterialsMix a sufficientamount of the components in the proportions and in the mannerspecified by the manufacturer of the materials. Fill the moldsone-half full. Remove any entrapped air by using a cutting andstabbing

33、motion with a spatula or rounded-end rod. Fill theremainder of the mold, working down into the previouslyplaced portion. Upon completion of the filling operation, thetops of the specimens should extend slightly above the tops ofthe molds. When the molds have been filled, strike off theexcess materia

34、l, even with the top of the mold. Permit thematerial to remain in the mold until it has set sufficiently toallow removal without danger of deformation or breakage.6.5.1.1 Silicate MaterialsSome silicates may require cov-ering during the curing period. After removal from the molds,acid-treat the spec

35、imens, if required, in accordance with therecommendations given by the manufacturer. No other treat-ment shall be permitted. Record the method of treatment in9.1.8.6.5.2 Sulfur Materials:6.5.2.1 Sulfur Mortars Slowly melt a minimum of 2 lb(900 g) of the material in a suitable container at a temperat

36、ureof 265 to 290F (130 to 145C) with constant agitation. Stir tolift and blend the aggregate without beating air into the melt.Place the piece of plastic sheet containing the14-in. (6-mm)round hole over the open face of the mold with the holecentered on the face. On top of the piece of plastic sheet

37、 andsurrounding the hole, place a section of plastic tubing or pipe1 in. (25 mm) in diameter by 1 in. high. Pour the meltedmaterial through the hole into the mold and continue to pouruntil the section of tubing or pipe is completely filled. Theexcess material contained in the hole in the plastic she

Upon removal, file, grind, or sandthe surface flush, removing the excess material remaining atthe pouring gate.6.5.2.3 Su

39、lfur Concrete Heat and mix a sufficient amountof aggregate components and sulfur cement in the proportionsand in the manner specified by the manufacturer to a tempera-ture of 265 to 290F (130 to 145C). Fill the molds one-halffull. Rod 25 times using a rounded58-in. (15-mm) diameterrod. Distribute th

40、e strokes uniformly over the cross section ofthe mold. Repeat with two additional portions allowing the rodto penetrate about12 in. (12 mm) into the underlying layer.After consolidation, the tops of the specimens should extendslightly above the tops of the molds. Finish the top surface bystriking of

41、f the excess material even with the top of the mold.Permit the material to remain in the mold until it has cooledsufficiently to allow removal without danger of deformation orbreakage.6.5.3 Number of Test SpecimensPrepare six test speci-mens for each material formulation.6.6 Specimen Preparation for

42、 Test Method CPreparespecimens in accordance with 6.5 with the following additionalconsiderations:6.6.1 Use of vibrators is generally not required for sulfurconcrete but may be required for other materials using TestMethod C. The type and method of vibrating will be asrecommended by the manufacturer

43、 and shall be specified in thetest report.6.6.2 Filling and Capping for Cylindrical Resin, Silica, andSilicate SpecimensThe top layer may be filled to slightlybelow the top edge of the mold except for sulfur materials. Forsulfur materials, fill slightly above the top edge and strike offflush with th

44、e top edge. The top surface of the specimen shallbe finished as much as practicable to a plane perpendicular tothe axis of the specimen. The flatness of the finished specimenshall be within 0.010 in. (0.25 mm). Specimens exceeding thistolerance shall be machined flat or a capping compound shallbe ap

45、plied if the test load is to be applied to the surface.6.6.2.1 Capping, if used, shall be made as thin as practicableand shall be applied before removal of the polymer concretefrom the molds.6.6.2.2 If a polymer paste or mortar is used for capping, it ispreferable that the polymer used be the same a

46、s the one used tomake the specimen. Fillers used may be the fine portion usedin the polymer concrete or another mineral powder.6.6.2.3 For capping in the mold, a suitable capping com-pound may be made from a polymer mortar. The surface of thepolymer concrete shall be wiped off after hardening, and a

47、polymer mortar or polymer paste with suitable fillers shall bedeposited and pressed down uniformly to the top edge of themold with a capping plate. In order to prevent the capping platefrom bonding to the paste or mortar, the underside of thecapping plate shall be covered with a release agent.6.6.2.

48、4 For capping after mold removal, stiff polymer pasteor mortar or a low-melting-point alloy for capping shall beused. A suitable apparatus to maintain parallel ends on thespecimens shall be used.NOTE 3Any capping compound to be used with polymer concreteshould be tested to ascertain that its strengt

49、h is high enough to preventpremature failure in the cap when testing in high compressive strengthpolymer concretes. Cap failure may result in substantially lower compres-sive strength results.7.
