1、Designation: D 5959 96 (Reapproved 2007)Standard Test Method forBulk Density of Level Paintbrush Filaments1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5959; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last

2、 revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers a procedure for measuring theweight of filaments per unit volume.1.2 This test method is applicab

3、le only to monofilamentwith consistent longitudinal (level) profiles.1.3 The values given in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with it

4、s 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. Summary of Test Method2.1 The weight and volume of a bundle of filaments ismeasured, and the bundle density is

5、calculated.3. Significance and Use3.1 Filaments are available in a variety of cross sections andmaterials.Ameasure of bulk density permits the brushmaker toestimate the weight of filament required to prepare a givennumber of brushes.4. Apparatus4.1 The apparatus requires some machining, and is as-se

12、iameter.55. Sampling, Test Specimens and Test Units5.1 The test result will depend on the cross-sectional shape,the polymer, and the length of the bundle selected for the test.To a lesser extent it will also depend on the filament diametersince thin filaments pack more efficiently than large ones.5.

13、2 The device, as pictured in Fig. 1, is designed to measurediameters ranging from 1.82 to 2.06 in. (46.2 to 52.3 mm).Make sure that both ends are measured and the results areaveraged.6. Procedure6.1 Select a sample of approximately 2-in. (50-mm) diam-eter. Filament may be removed from a sample so th

14、e bundlediameter falls within the scale range (1.82 to 2.06 in.) (46.2 to52.3 mm). One convenient method to adjust the samplediameter to the desired range is to fill a 2-in. (50-mm) insidediameter tube. If the sample is too small, like samples may becombined to adjust the bundle diameter to the desi

15、red range.6.2 Weigh the sample bundle to the nearest 0.1 g (W). Makesure that the weight excludes the wrap or rubber bands used tohold the filament together.6.3 Measure the lengths of five individual filaments to thenearest 0.02 in. (0.5 mm) with a ruler and average the lengthsto determine bundle le

16、ngth (L).6.4 With rubber bands holding the bundle together, roll itbetween the palms of the hands four times and then place theend of the bundle inside the loop of measuring tape in thedevice shown in Fig. 1. Operate the air valve lever 10 times tostabilize. Actuate the air valve to tighten the stee

17、l tape. Readthe bundle diameter, estimating to the nearest 0.005 in. (0.1mm) from where the pointer indicates on the scale.6.5 Release the bundle. Reverse the bundle end for end andrepeat 6.4 to remeasure the diameter.6.6 Average the results (D) and proceed to calculate the bulkdensity as described

18、in 7.1. Bulk density is expressed in g/in.3(g/cm3).7. Calculation or Interpretation of Results7.1 Calculate bulk density as follows:Bulk Density 5 4 3 W/L 3p3D2! (1)where:W = bundle weight, g,L = bundle length, in. (cm), andD = mean bundle diameter, in. (cm).8. Precision and Bias8.1 PrecisionMeasure
