15、les, this technique may be the only viable method for obtaining crushingstrength. The production of fines in a reactor is not desired because of the potential of bed compaction and the pressure buildupin the reactor.6.

Maximum load capacity of the press shouldmatch with the accuracy measuring the applied force.NOTE 1Lower maximum load may be acceptable for testing less strong materials.6.2 U.S. Standard Sieves, set (Tyler Equivalent).in accordance with E11.6.3 Test Cell, (Fig. 1).NOTE 2A top loading cel

(1)where:DBD = dry bulk density (see Test Method D4180),BD = bulk density,OW = weight of original sample

Perform sieving so as not to produceadditional fines.7.11 Crush strengths are determined in triplicate for at least two different pressures that will produce both less than and morethan 1 weight percent fin

Typical loads are between 150 and 500 lb/in.2 (1 and 3.5 MPa) for larger formed materials and 15 and50 lb/in.2 (0.1 and 0.35 MPa) for granules.7.12 Use a fresh charge of catalyst for each loading in order to prevent bias of damaged catalyst or being left with strongerpellets.7.13 Weight percent

Draw a straight line having the best correlation coefficient. Report thecrush strength
