Apparatus6.1 Procedure A (Preferred):6.1.1 Stainless Steel 4000 ml Beaker, 150 by 230-mm diameter high. Alternatively an unlined 0.95 L (1 qt) or 3.

18、48 L (1 gal)can may be used depending on the sample size.6.1.2 Heating Mantle of sufficient size. Note that aluminum foil may be used to serve as somewhat of a gasket if an unlinedmetal can is to be used in the heating mantle in place of the stainless steel beaker.6.1.3 Temperature Indicator.6.1.4 T

22、azards7.1 Following this guidepractice requires one to work with materials that are heated to very high temperatures (350 to 450F).Care must be taken to prevent accidental burns.7.2 Consult the MSDSSDS for the thermoplastic pavement marking material being tested to understand the proper way tohandle

23、 any accidental burns.7.3 Wear protective clothing, thermal resistant gloves, and eye protection.8. Procedure8.1 Obtaining a representative sample is critical in determining the suitability of the material being tested in meeting therequired specification or in determining the batch-to-batch consist

24、ency of the thermoplastic trafficpavement marking material.Obtain a representative sample by following Practice D7307. The size of the sample being tested may vary depending upon theobjective of the person conducting the test, varying from an approximate 0.95 L (1 qt) or 1 000 g sample to a 3.48 L (

25、1 gal) or4 000 g sample. An approximate 0.95 L (1 qt) or 1 000 g sample should be the minimum sample size tested.8.2 Procedure A (Preferred):8.2.1 This procedure covers the melting of thermoplastic pavement marking material using a heating mantle and a mechanicalstirrer. This procedure simulates clo

26、sely what occurs in the actual use of this material.8.2.1.1 Set up the apparatus as shown in Fig. 1. Wire the heating mantle power cord to the temperature indicator controller inaccordance with the manufactures instructions. Mount the controller-indicator in a panel that can be wall mounted to keep

27、the unitaway from heat, dirt, and vibrations. When the unit is ready for operation, make a test melt in order to set the proportional bandand other adjustment to give a controlled temperature of 218 6 1C (425 6 2F).2F), or to an alternate temperature as called forin the governing specification.8.2.1

28、.2 Place one-third to one-half of the granular sample into the container residing in the heating mantle. Attach the stirringshaft to the mechanical stirrer.8.2.1.3 Turn on the power to the heating mantle and the controller. Start the variable speed mechanical stirrer when thethermoplastic material h

29、as softened sufficiently.8.2.1.4 Slowly add the remainder of the granular sample at a rate so as to maintain continuous stirring.8.2.1.5 After the entire granular sample has been added to the container set the speed of the mechanical stirrer with thetachometer to a speed of about 100 rpm. Cover the

30、container using the aluminum lid, positioning the lid such that it clears the mixershaft and the thermocouple.D7308 1728.2.1.6 Allow the material to heat and mix until it reaches a temperature of approximately 425F (218 6 1C).218 6 1C (4256 2F), or to an alternate temperature as called for in the go

32、tion, the sample can be maintained at the required temperature for the required period of timeprior to the preparation of the test specimens.8.3 Procedure B (Optional):8.3.1 This option covers the melting of thermoplastic pavement marking material using a hot plate and manual stirring.8.3.1.1 Place

33、an empty can of sufficient size to melt the sample on the hot plate set on high. The surface of the hotplate shouldextend beyond the area covered by the bottom surface of the can. Failure to use a hot plate with sufficient top plate area can causethe top plate to crack.8.3.1.2 Add approximately one-

34、fifth of the granular thermoplastic into the container and allow the material to heat, stirringregularly with a spatula.8.3.1.3 Once the material is molten continue to add dry material incrementally with constant agitation in order to keep thematerial molten and avoid scorching.8.3.1.4 After all of

35、the dry material has been added continue to stir the material with the spatula checking the temperatureregularly with a thermometer.8.3.1.5 When the material reaches 425F, maintain the temperature between 400 and 425 degrees for approximately 10 min withconstant stirring.8.3.1.6 Remove the material

36、from the hotplate and prepare the test specimens as required by the specific test methods that areto be used.8.3.1.7 If required by the specification, the sample can be maintained at the required temperature for the required period of timeprior to the preparation of the test specimens. If the sample

37、 is maintained in a temperature controlled oven without agitation thesample should be well stirred to ensure material homogeneity prior to pouring the test specimens.9.
