1、Designation: C689 09 (Reapproved 2014)Standard Test Method forModulus of Rupture of Unfired Clays1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C689; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision.

2、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 the modu-lus of rupture of ceramic whiteware clays both dry and afterconditioning at 50

3、 or 80 % relative humidity, or both.1.2 The values stated 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

4、 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.

5、pling Ceramic Whiteware Clays3. Significance and Use3.1 The purpose of this test method is to obtain values ofrupture modulus of clays before firing, under various process-ing conditions (relative humidity).4. Apparatus4.1 Conditioning CabinetAny suitable airtight cabinetwith means for circulating a

6、ir, or vacuum desiccator, whereinprescribed specimens can be conditioned as desired beforetesting. Specimens for dry strength shall be stored with silicagel desiccant. Specimens for 50 % relative humidity shall bestored over a saturated solution of sodium dichromate(Na2CR2O72H2O), and specimens for

7、80 % relative humidityshall be stored over a saturated solution of ammonium chloride(NH4Cl).4.2 Testing MachineAny suitable testing machine may beused, provided a uniform rate of direct loading can bemaintained at no more than 1 lb/min (4.4 N/min) using theprescribed specimens. For the support of th

8、e test specimen, twosteel bars having a diameter of 0.5-in. (12.7-mm) shall beprovided. The load shall be applied by means of a third steelbar having a diameter of 0.5-in. (12.7-mm). All three bars areto be smooth polished steel without surface defects such asscratches or gouges.5. Test Specimen Pre

9、paration5.1 Preparation of Extruded Specimens 100 % clay speci-men preparation: The test sample shall be blunged withsufficient distilled water to give complete dispersion andproduce a slip of sufficient viscosity to avoid noticeable settlingof particles (usually in the range of 25 to 50 percent sol

10、ids).Slip shall be sieved through a No. 120 (125 m) sieve orequivalent. After aging 24 h the slip shall be dewatered to aplastic condition preferably by filter pressing. At this point themoisture content must be adjusted to optimum conditions forforming by some measure of plasticity such as Pfefferk

11、ornapparatus, plumb bob penetration, or other acceptable means.After the water of plasticity has been adjusted (usually willrange from 20 to 50 %), test specimens shall be formed byextrusion. Where hand-operated extruder is used withoutvacuum, the plastic clay shall be thoroughly hand-wedged toelimi

12、nate entrapped air as a preliminary to forming test pieces.Where a vacuum extruder is used, a vacuum of not less than 25in. (635 mm) Hg shall be maintained during forming operation.5.1.1 Clay-Flint Specimensto be used in the case of strongclays that are considered bonding materials. Prepare specimen

13、sas in 5.1 using a mixture of clay and 200 mesh potters flint ina 1/1 ratio blend that has been thoroughly dry mixed.5.1.2 Solid Cast Specimens100 % clay and clay-flintspecimens should be prepared by making a high solids slurrydeflocculated to minimum viscosity. Adjust the solids contentof the slurr

14、y to obtain a viscosity between 100-500 cps. Theslurry should be cast in plaster molds until solid, and the barsthen dried in accordance to the procedure outlined in 5.3 and5.4.5.2 DimensionThe test specimens shall be round bars of0.50 (12.8 mm) diameter, and at least 4.5 in. (114 mm) inlength to pe

15、rmit an overhang of at least 0.25 in. at each endwhen mounted on the supports.1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee C21 on CeramicWhitewares and Related Productsand is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeC21.04 on Raw Materials.Current edition approved Dec. 1, 2014.

United States15.3 Handling and WarpageAll due precaution shall beobserved

18、 in the forming and drying to produce straight testspecimens. No specimen shall be used that shows a warpagegreater than 1 % of its overall length. The bars shall be checkedfrom time to time during drying for straightness, and beforethey stiffen, corrective straightening may be encouraged byrotating

19、 the bars so that drying occurs from another surfaceregion. Defective bars due to warpage, flaws, or voids shall berejected.5.4 Drying and StorageThe extruded specimens shall beplaced on a lightly oiled pallet and allowed to dry at roomatmospheric conditions 68 to 104F (20 to 40C) for 24 h. Thenthe

20、specimens shall be dried in a drier at 140F (60C) and lowrelative humidity for 6 h, or until moisture content is less than0.5 %. The bars shall be loosely stacked in the desiccator topermit rapid cooling. Bars should be cooled to near roomtemperature but not longer than one (1) hour. After the initi

21、aldrying period, the specimens for dry strength shall be furtherdried at 212 to 230F (100 to 110C) for 24 h and then cooledin a desiccator before testing. The bars shall be loosely stackedin the desiccator to permit rapid cooling. Bars should be cooledto near room temperature but not longer than one

22、 (1) hour.After the initial drying, the specimens for testing at 50 or 80 %relative humidity shall be placed into the conditioning cabinetwith circulating air (or in partial vacuum) with a saturatedsolution of sodium dichromate or ammonium chloride,respectively, and in each case, stored for 24 h to

23、allowequilibrium conditions to be reached.6. Procedure6.1 Test at least ten specimens at room temperature for eachcondition, whether dry or conditioned, at 50 or 80 % relativehumidity.6.2 Remove the test specimen from storage, one at a time,and immediately place on the round bar supports of the test

24、ingmachine. These supports shall be spaced 4 in. (102 mm) apart,depending on the type machine and type clay, and testspecimen must overlap each support by at least 0.25 in. (6.4mm). Apply the load at right angles to the specimen andmidway between the supports. Apply the load at a uniform ratenot to

25、exceed 1 lb-f/min (4.4 N/min) until failure occurs. Theloading rate should be such as to cause failure in approximatelyone minute. Measure the diameter at the break to the nearest0.001 in. (0.03 mm). Use the average of at least three diameterreadings around the bar.7. Calculation7.1 Calculate the mo

26、dulus of rupture for each specimen asfollows:M 5 8PL/d3(1)where:M = modulus of rupture, psi (or MPa),P = load at rupture, lbf (or N),L = distance between supports, in. = 2.0 or 4.0 (51 or 102mm), andd = diameter of specimen, in.
