2、es indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers a procedure to measure a carbonblack structure property known as Void Volume. Compressedvoid volumes are obtained by measuring the

3、 compressedvolume of a weighed sample as a function of applied pressurein a cylindrical chamber by a movable piston with a displace-ment transducer on the piston mechanism. A profile of voidvolume as a function of applied pressure provides a means toassess carbon black structure at varying levels of

4、 density andaggregate reduction.1.2 Void volume is an important carbon black structureproperty that relates to the compounded physical properties forcarbon black-filled elastomers including viscosity, modulus,and die swell.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other uni

17、ss. A true void volume isobtained by correcting the measured void volume for instru-ment geometry, sample mass, and possible friction effects.5. Significance and Use5.1 The void volume of a carbon black expressed as afunction of applied pressure, VV, is a carbon black structureproperty. Structure is

18、 a generic term that is a function of theshape irregularity and deviation from sphericity of carbonblack aggregates. The greater a carbon black resists compres-sion by having substantial aggregate irregularity and non-sphericity, the greater the compressed volume and void vol-ume. Also, the more tha

19、t a carbon black resists compression,the greater the energy required to compress the sample per unitvoid volume.5.2 Structure, traditionally measured by OAN (Test MethodD 2414) and COAN (Test Method D 3493), is a property thatstrongly influences the physical properties developed in carbonblack-elast

20、omer compounds for use in tires, mechanical rubbergoods, and other manufactured rubber products. Several stud-ies within D24 have demonstrated that void volume data can beused to estimate OAN and COAN numbers of carbon blacksusing mathematical models derived from void volume-pressuredata and oil abs

21、orption data. The models may vary dependingon whether dynamic or static void volume measurements areused and the number and types of carbon blacks includedwithin a modeling data set. If necessary, OAN and COANestimates from void volume models can also be normalizedusing current SRBs (as practiced in

22、 Guide D 4821). Anyestimates of OAN or COAN derived from prediction modelsusing void volume-pressure data should be labeled appropri-ately (that is, Test Method D 6086) to avoid confusion withOAN or COAN data obtained directly from oil absorptionmethods.6.

24、blacks as afunction of applied pressure from which the void volume iscalculated. The void volume instrument or device shall con-form to the following generic specifications and be capable ofoperating as outlined in 6.4.1-6.4.3.6.4.1 The instrument shall have a rigid framework thatcontains a cylindri

25、cal sample chamber (see an example in Fig.X1.1). Hysteresis in the framework under the range of appliedforces should be accounted for in the displacement measure-ment.6.4.2 The cylinder shall have a uniform diameter.6.4.3 By means of a suitable mechanism with sufficientpower for the compression forc

26、es as required for testing, thepiston shall be capable of being moved to compress the sample.A device to record the movement of the piston and measuredisplacement shall be provided. The compressed volume ofany sample is determined by the distance from the end of thepiston to the end of the cylinder;

27、 this is designated as a “height”in the procedure discussed in Section 9. The sample height andcylinder diameter are used to calculate an apparent samplevolume.6.4.4 A load cell or other suitable force or pressure mea-surement device is used to measure the pressure applied to thesample.6.4.5 Two typ

28、es of void volume instruments are commer-cially available:6.4.5.1 A static or equilibrium measurement instrumentwhich is designed to target one or more target pressures; anoption to step from one target pressure to another is availableallowing the collection of several data points. This typeinstrume

29、nt uses an air-powered control cylinder to move thepiston and does not control the rate of piston movement. Thepressure applied to the sample is not directly measured, butcalculated based on air pressure applied to the control cylinder.See Appendix X1 for a brief description of a commercial voidvolu

30、me instrument that meets these specifications.6.4.5.2 A dynamic void volume instrument is also availablewhich is designed to dynamically scan a pressure range at acontrolled rate thereby allowing continuous measurements ofapparent volume and pressure at specified data intervals. Thedynamic instrumen

31、t uses an electric motor to operate a linearactuator attached to the piston. The instrument incorporates aload cell to directly measure force or pressure applied to thesample.7. Sampling7.1 Samples of candidate carbon blacks shall be taken inaccordance with Practice D 1799 or D 1900.8. Calibration a

32、nd Normalization8.1 CalibrationFollow the manufacturers instructions toset up the instrument and to calibrate the measurement sys-tems. The use of a physical standard such as a calibrated steelplug with traceability is recommended to calibrate or verify theheight displacement transducer. A reference

33、 load cell withtraceability is recommended to calibrate or verify the forcetransducer.8.2 Normalization (non-mandatory; user should follow rec-ommendations from manufacturer):8.2.1 Test the 6 current ASTM Standard Reference Blacks(SRBs) four times each to establish the average measured valuefor each

34、 SRB over the range of compression pressures ofinterest. Additional values are added periodically.8.2.2 Perform a regression analysis using target SRB values(y value) and the rolling average of the last 4 measured values(x value) across the range of applied pressures specified by themanufacturer. If

35、 target SRB curves represent measured voidvolumes, then the curves are instrument specific and should beobtained from the manufacturer.NOTE 1Use only one normalization curvedo not separate thecarcass and tread blacks as practiced in Test Method D 2414. TheD6086082regression model is a straight-line

37、e expected measurement range, the testapparatus should be recalibrated in accordance with 8.1.NOTE 2The expected measurement range for void volumes at specificapplied pressures for an SRB is typically established through round robintesting. In the absence of industry precision data, this information

38、 can beestablished within a laboratory and apparatus through periodic monitoringof the SRBs to determine 3-sigma limits.8.2.5 When any changes are made to the apparatus such ascalibration of the measurement systems or replacement ofcylinder or piston tip, a new normalization curve must begenerated a

Void Volume Calculations10.1 The measured void volume (VVM) is calculated fromthe measured apparent compressed volume as follows. Theapparent compressed volume

44、 of the sample is evaluated by Eq2.VA5 h 3 3.1416 D2/4000 (2)where:VA= the apparent compressed volume of the carbon blacksample, cm3,h = the “height” of the compressed carbon black in thecylinder, mm, andD = the diameter of the cylinder, mm.10.2 The theoretical volume of the carbon black is evaluate

45、dby Eq 3.VT5 m/dCB(3)where:VT= the theoretical volume of the carbon black sample,cm3,dCB= accepted true (skeletal) density of the carbonblack = 1.90 g/cm3, andm = mass of the carbon black sample, g.10.3 The measured void volume of the candidate carbonblack per unit mass (100 g) is given by Eq 4.VVM5

46、VA2 VTm100! (4)where:VVM= measured void volume of carbon black sample,105m3/kg (cm3/100 g),VA= the apparent compressed volume of the carbonblack sample, cm3, (Eq 2), andVT= the theoretical volume of the carbon black sample,cm3, (Eq 3).NOTE 3Some carbon blacks have reported skeletal densities of 1.8

47、to2.0 g/cm3. The accepted skeletal density of rubber carbon black is 1.90g/cm3.10.4 The corrected or true void volume (VVT) at an appliedpressure is a value that is independent of the sample shape (thatis, the sample to height ratio). It can be determined from themeasured void volume with a given cy

48、linder at various samplemasses, and subsequent extrapolation of a linear line to aninfinitely small mass, VVTis then only a function of theapplied pressure. A method of determining a corrected or truevoid volume from extrapolation is shown as follows:VVMD,p! 5 aD,p! * m 1 VVTp! (5)where:VVT= correct
