Summary of Test Method3.1 A sample of carbon black is passed through two sievesto isolate a f

6、raction of uniform size. The most spherical pelletsfrom this portion are selected and placed into the tester. Theindividual pellets are pressed against a platen with a load cellfor measuring force.As pressure is applied the pellet will eitherbreak with a rapid force reduction or the pellet will simp

7、lycompress. The individual pellet hardness is the maximum forceprior to a force reduction of at least 3 cN or the maximum forcerequired to compress the pellet to 90 %, whichever comes first.4. Significance and Use4.1 Individual pellet hardness is related to several carbonblack characteristics. Among

8、 these are mass strength andattrition. The subsequent level of dispersion obtained in somemixed compounds containing the carbon black may be affectedby pellet hardness. Acceptable pellet hardness must be agreedto by the user and the producer.5. Apparatus5.1 Automated Pellet Hardness Tester,2capable

9、of achiev-ing an absolute measuring accuracy of 62 cN (2 gf) for theforce measurement and 60.1 mm for the diameter measure-ment and a relative accuracy of 60.5 cN (0.5 gf) for the forcemeasurement and 0.02 mm for the diameter measurement andconsisting of the following major components and character-

10、istics.5.1.1 A means for automatic loading of a pellet on thetransport platen for transporting the pellet so as to contact thesecond platen with a minimum force. Typically one platencontains a force measuring device. The required force to detectthe contact shall not exceed 2 cN (2 gf),5.1.2 A means

11、for applying the force at a constant rate,5.1.3 A means for transporting the pellet so to minimize itsmovement during the application of force.5.1.4 A means for measuring the diameter of the individualpellet under test as measured along the axis of the applicationof force.5.1.5 A control device for

The between operatorcomponent of variation is included in the calculated values forr and R.10.4 The results of the precision calculations for this test aregiven in Table 1. The materials are arranged in ascending“mean l

Any other value in Table1 may be used as an estimate of repeatability, as appropriate.The difference between two single test results (or determina-tions) found on identical test material un

39、ilityThe pooled relative reproducibility,(R), of this test has been established as 14 %. Any other valuein Table 1 may be used as an estimate of reproducibility, asappropriate. The difference between two single and indepen-dent test results found by two operators working under theprescribed reproduc

Reference values do not

42、 exist for this testmethod since the value or level of the test property isexclusively defined by the test method. Bias, therefore, cannotbe determined.11.
