23、. A correction factor should be determined when accuracy is desired in order to compare results between laboratories.5.2 Standard SamplesEach laboratory must prepare its own standard samples for wet-sieve tests for each of the sieve sizesused. Select standard samples at a level of fineness in the sa

24、me range as that used in routine work. After the selected material isreserved, uniformly mix the gross sample by placing it on a sheet of rubber, oil cloth, or heavy wrapping paper, depending on thesample size, and raising first one corner of the sheet and then the other so as to roll the sample ove

25、r and over at least 100 times.Temporarily seal the prepared standard material in airtight containers during the standardization procedure prior to sealing smallportions as standard samples in vials. Using the 203-mm 8-in. diameter sieves from 3.74.7, perform the dry sieving tests,following the proce

26、dure of Test Method C184. Repeat the test three times and use the average of the amounts passing, expressedas percent, as the standard value of the sample. Use this standard sample to calibrate the wet sieves. Place the entire sample inairtight vials as soon as possible to prevent changes due to hum

27、idity. Vials shall be prepared in denominations such as to containapproximately 50 g for standardizing the 300-m (No. 50); 25 g for the 150-m (No. 100); or 10 g for the 75-m (No. 200) sieve.6.

The sieve correction factor is thedifference

29、between the test residue obtained and the residue value indicated by the standardization tests of Section 45, expressedas a percentage of the test residue. This factor is expressed as follows:C 5Rs3Wt/100!2RtRt 3100 (1)where:C = sieve correction factor (which may be either plus or minus), %,C786/C78

Procedure for Wet Sieving7.1 Weigh the sample to the nearest 0.01 g using approximately 50 g for a 300-m (No. 50), 25 g for a 150-m (No. 100), or10 g for a 75-m (No. 200) determination. Record the weight and transfer the sample quantitatively to a clean dry sieve. Wet thesample tho

33、roughly with a gentle stream of water. Remove the sieve from under the nozzle and adjust the pressure on the spraynozzle to 69 6 4 kPa 10 6 0.5 psi. Return the sieve to its position under the nozzle and wash for 112 min, moving the sievein the spray with a circular motion in a horizontal plane at th

34、e rate of one motion per second. Every portion of the screen shouldbe sprayed during each circular motion of the sieve. Hold the sieve so that the bottom of the spray nozzle extends 13 mm 0.5 in.below the top of the sieve frame. Immediately after removing the sieve from the spray, rinse once with ab

35、out 50 cm3 of distilledor deionized water using caution not to lose any of the residue. Gently blot the lower surface of the screen cloth with a damp, cleancloth. Dry the sieve and residue in an oven or over a hot plate (see Note 2), supporting the sieve in such a manner that air maypass freely bene

36、ath it. Cool the sieve; then brush the residue from the sieve, and weigh on a balance to the nearest 0.01 g (see Note3).NOTE 2Care should be taken when heating the sieve, so that any solder that may have been used in assembling the sieve does not soften.NOTE 3Prior to each use, dip the sieve in dilu

37、te acetic acid (1+6) or dilute HCl (1+10) and immediately rinse it with distilled or deionized water toremove particles lodged in the meshes. Recalibrate the sieve after 25 determinations.8.

Therefore, users are advised to develop their ownlaboratory precision.9.2 Since there is no accepted reference material suitabl

42、. Diameter SievesA1.1.1 The particle size distribution curve of cement at the 300-m (No. 50) and 150-m (No. 100) is level in this region, andtherefore it is felt that no sieve correction is necessary.A1.2 75-m (No. 200) 203-mm 8-in.

43、e standardized, depending on the accuracy required. For internallaboratory use where changes in fineness are of more importance than the absolute value, it is not necessary to standardize the drysieve. The sieve cloth, as a minimum, should conform to Specification E11. A correction factor should be

44、established whereaccuracy is desired in order to compare results between laboratories.A1.2.2 To determine the percentage of test material passing through a nominal 75-m (No. 200) sieve, two additional sieves areneeded: a 90-m (No. 170) and a 63-m (No. 230) sieve. Using NBS SRM No 1004 (No. 140-No. 4

45、00 sieve), Glass Bead Standard,determine the effective openings of each of the three sieves.NOTE A1.1NBS SRM No. 1004 tends to blind the screen during use and the beads lodged in the meshes are difficult to remove. Tapping the frame ofthe sieve and gentle brushing of the cloth from the underside wil

46、l aid in recovering all the beads and keep the bead loss down to approximately 50 mg.A1.2.3 Select a test material. It is important that the sample for calibration be of the same typical fineness as the range in whichthe sieve is to be used. The use of the same test material selected for the 75-m (N

47、o. 200) dry sieve calibration is encouraged (see4.25.2). Determine the percent residue of the test material on each of the three sieves, following the procedure of Test MethodC184. Plot the average percent residues versus the effective opening. The percent residue at the nominal opening of the No. 2

48、00sieve can be read off the plot and the difference between the actual obtained residue and the nominal residue at 75 m may be usedalgebraically as a sieve correction factor for that sieve, only in the same general fineness area.A1.3 ExampleDetermination Ofof Sieve Correction factorFactor for 75-m (
