Significance and Use4.1 Sampling and conditioning are equally as important astesting. The reliability of the test results depends primarilyupon how well th

23、e specimens tested represent the true charac-ter and condition of the lot of asbestos fiber. Much care andeffort are required to be sure that all the sampling operationsare systematic or at random and are representative. Failure toprovide a test specimen that accurately represents the lot fromwhich

24、it is drawn will produce misleading test results regard-less of the accuracy and the precision of the test method.5.

29、thick.6.5 Select a test specimen by taking pinches from randomlocations of the pile until a sample is obtained that will requireminimum adjustment to the desired weight.NOTE 2As pinches are taken, care must be exercised that each pinchcontains the total cross section of the pile from top to bottom a

30、t the pointit is taken, including any grit or fines which may have segregated to thebottom.7. Procedure for a Composite Sample7.1 Divide the shipment into as many lots as necessary, eachlot corresponding to any one type or grade of fiber. When largequantities must be sampled, where access to the ind

31、ividualbags is limited, and where restacking of the lot is impossible orimplies unreasonable expense, the method for limited accessi-bility sampling described in Appendix X1 may be used ifagreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier.(WarningWhen handling asbestos fibers, avoid creatingdust. Pr

32、olonged breathing of significant airborne concentra-tions of asbestos dust may cause serious bodily harm.)7.2 Prepare a 2.5-kg (5-lb) composite sample from each lotconsisting of 200 bags or part thereof (the number of bags inthe lot being designated by N), by taking 20 handfuls (approxi-mately 125 g

33、 or 4 oz), one in every N/20th bag of the lot(systematic sample), or one in 20 different bags taken atrandom, using the source of random numbers.NOTE 3If the need for a larger sample is foreseen, a larger compositesample may be prepared.7.3 Master Composite Samples:7.3.1 When a lot exceeds 200 bags,

34、 but not 2000 bags,composite samples may be combined into one master compos-ite sample at the discretion of the tester.7.3.2 Prepare a 2.5-kg (5-lb) sample from the master com-posite sample by quartering it, placing aside the full thicknessof two diametrically opposite quarters, and reblending there

35、mainder by coning. Continue this quartering until a 2.5-kg(5-lb) sample is obtained.FIG. 2 Fiber MoldFIG. 3 Fiber PressD 2590 98 (2006)e137.4 The 2.5-kg (5-lb) sample will be used as the source oftest specimens for each individual test.7.5 The samples shall be kept in closed containers placed incove

36、red storage, ready for subsequent conditioning and mix-ing. In the case of samples intended for moisture determina-tion, use moisture-proof containers and protect them fromtemperature changes.8. Test Conditions8.1 Each sample shall be allowed to come to equilibriumwith workroom temperature and humid

37、ity except in the case ofsamples intended for moisture determinations.8.2 Moisture content of sample should not exceed 3 % asdetermined by Test Method D 2987.9. Conditioning and Mixing9.1 Spread the sample as obtained in Section 6, on a smoothand clean area.9.2 Conditioning:9.2.1 Conditioning by Han

38、d (Method A)Condition thesample by passing the fiber through the hands with gentlerubbing in order to break up lumps and separate clots. Takecare not to break up fiber agglomerates consisting of close-packed fibers in parallel orientation (such as the four largestagglomerates listed in Table 3 of Te

39、rminology D 2946.9.2.2 Mechanical Conditioning (Method B)For best re-sults, it is recommended that the fiber be conditioned by meansof the laboratory fiber conditioner.9.2.2.1 Break up by hand all large lumps contained in thecomposite sample.9.2.2.2 Put into the fiber mold 0.6 to 0.7 kg (114 to 112

40、lb)of fiber, free of large lumps.9.2.2.3 Place the mold in the fiber press and apply com-pressed air to yield a total force of 1900 6 200 kg (4200 6 500lb) for 1 min to form a fiber cake. The piston diameter of thefiber press, specified in Fig. 3, is 200 mm (71516 in.).9.2.2.4 Release the pressure a

41、nd remove the pressed fibercake, whole, by pushing it out with the piston of the mold.9.2.2.5 Feed the pressed fiber cake into the laboratory fiberconditioner operating at 525 6 25 rpm.NOTE 4Break Group 3 fiber cake, as determined by Method D 3639,into three or four pieces before feeding it into the

42、 conditioner to preventjamming.9.2.2.6 If a two-stage fiber conditioner is used, pass portionsof the composite sample through the conditioner, using choke-feeding, until the whole test sample has been conditioned. If asingle-stage conditioner is used, pass the whole test sampletwice through the cond

43、itioner, using choke-feeding on thesecond pass.9.2.2.7 Break by hand any lumps remaining after the secondconditioner pass.9.3 MixingAfter conditioning, mix the sample thoroughlyby passing the fiber through the hands with a gentle shakingmotion.FIG. 4 Combination Fiber Press and Two-Stage Fiber Condi

Fully identify the samplewith the lot that it represents.11. Precision and Bias11.1 Careful attention to the pr

45、ocedure of sampling, sub-sampling, and conditioning will produce test specimens thatare representative of the original material.12.

46、 For meaningful and accurate results, the completeunsimplified procedure is recommended for referee purposes.However, when it is impractical to comply with its require-ments and when mutually agreed to by the parties concerned,the following simplifications are permitted:X1.2 PrincipleX1.2.1 The prin

47、ciple upon which sampling may be simpli-fied is the application of the same specimen selection criteria todesignated accessible portions of the pile, which portions shallbe most nearly representative of the bags within the pile.X1.2.2 The portions of the pile prescribed may include all ofthe exposed

48、 accessible surface layer of bags.X1.2.3 In cases where the pile of bags was stacked in aknown order, and one or more of the exposed accessiblesurfaces of the pile of bags are known to contain a represen-tative array of lots from which the pile is composed, then selectthe samples from these surfaces

49、 to the neglect of otheraccessible, but less representative surfaces of the pile.NOTE X1.1The common practice in the asbestos-producing industryis to form large piles of bags of the same grade by stacking pallet loads inorderly rows in such a sequence that one exposed surface of the pile willcontain a representative array of pallet loads from each production lot.Thesurface occupied by each lot is proportional to the volume of each lot.X1.2.4 In cases where the pile of bags was not stacked in aknown order, divide the accessible surface, or surfaces,
