Reagents and Materials6.1 Water, visually clear and particle free, not necessarilydistilled, at room temperature or slightly above.6.2 Sieving Solution, a dispersing media consisting of 0.1weight % solution of sodium hexam

11、etaphosphate or sodiumpyrophosphate in water.6.3 Drying Agents, acetone or methyl alcohol, commercialgrade.7. Sampling7.1 Since the amount of sample used in the determination isquite small, great care must be taken to avoid segregation.Gross samples must be cut down very carefully using splitters,ri

12、fflers, or simple cone and quartering techniques.Adjusting theportion to an exact weight must be avoided. That is, arepresentative portion must be extracted from the analyticalsample and all of it weighed and used.1This guide is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C21 on CeramicWhitewares and R

Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Cleaning of SievesUse sufficient sieving solution tocover the sieve when suspended near the bottom of theultrasonic tank. (Some organic liquids are better but create adefinite explosion hazard.) Tu

After each cleaning carefully examine thesieve against a light, using a magnifying glass, for blockagesand breaks. (Breaks can be r

Calibration and Standardization9.1 Calibration of SievesThis must be done for highlyaccurate analyses

18、or to verify the apertures that may not bewithin the quoted 2-m tolerance. The calibration procedure isgiven in Appendix X1 of Specification E161.10. Procedure10.1 Wash the sieves with the sieving solution, rinse withwater and then with the drying agent, dry at 110C for 15 min,cool in the desiccator

19、, and weigh to at least the nearest 1 mg.10.2 Sample Size is somewhat dependent upon density, butthe following schedule is satisfactory for alumina and quartz:Nominal SieveApertures, mSample Weight(approximate), g45, 30, 20 1.015, 10 0.45 0.1510.3 Weigh the required amount of sample into a 100-mLbea

20、ker, fill half with sieving solution (containing the dispersingagent), and disperse by placing beaker in ultrasonic bath for 1min. Microscopical examination of the particles after disper-sion may be helpful in determining if the dispersion iscomplete.10.4 Wash the dispersed sample onto the sieve usi

21、ng a washbottle containing the sieving solution, turn on vacuum (amaximum of 15 in. of water), and agitate. Continuously addsieving solution, at a rate sufficient to maintain a small amountin the sieve, until about 1 Lhas passed. Below 6 m the amountof liquid required is less due to the time for sie

22、ving. Agitate bysharp tapping on the sieve frame with the metal rod. For sievesabove 30 m the liquid runs quickly enough without vacuum sothat the air-bleed valve can be opened. The bleed-line shouldbe pinched occasionally, however, to draw the larger particlesthrough, but care must be taken to avoi

23、d damage to the sieve.For apertures of 10 m or less, when the sieving appearscomplete (that is, the filtrate is clear) or the rate of throughputbecomes very slow, draw the sieve down to near dryness withthe vacuum. Remove the sieve from the sieving device andpartially immerse it in the sieving solut

24、ion in the ultrasonictank for about 1 min. The particles that have blocked theapertures will be forced back into the sieve. Regular sieving isthen continued. This procedure must be repeated until the washsolution in the ultrasonic tank remains clear (not visuallycloudy) after washing. This may be as

25、 many as 4 to 5 times forthe 5-m sieve to assure that the sieving is complete.10.5 Rinse with water to remove any sieving solution andthen rinse with drying agent, dry for 15 min at 110C, cool inthe desiccator, and weigh sieve and sample.10.6 Triplicate replications are advised to assure repeatabil-
