It is theresponsibility of the user to demonstrate that the application ofa standard outside any specified constraints is valid andreasonably provides properties of the bulk material from whichthe nonstandard specimen was extracted.5. Test Specimen Volum

21、e/Size Constraints in CurrentStandards5.1 Test Method C559Applies to test specimens withrectangular parallelepiped or right circular cylinder geometry.The minimum test volume is specified as 500 mm3. Theminimum test specimen dimension should be 10 times thelength of the largest visible grain.5.2 Tes

22、t Methods C565Applies to reduced diameter uni-axial tensile specimens. Grain size must be smaller than 0.79mm; while not specified, it is assumed that this refers toaverage grain size. The acceptable fracture zone shall be 19mm long with the centre of the zone at the point of minimumdiameter. The ra

23、tio of specimen diameter to grain size or flawsize must be greater than 5.5.3 Test Method C611Applies to strip, rod, bar or tubegeometries. Specimen length to maximum cross-sectional di-mension should be 6:1. No dimension should be smaller than 5times the length of the largest visible grain.5.4 Test

24、 Method C651Applies to rectangular parallelepi-ped geometries. The minimum dimension should be greaterthan 5 times the largest grain dimension. Test specimen lengthto thickness should be greater than 8. The ratio of test specimenwidth to thickness should be less than or equal to 2.5.5 Test Method C6

25、95Applies to right cylinder geometry.The test specimen diameter should be greater than 10 times themaximum grain size. The test specimen height to diameterratio should be in the range 1.9 to 2.1. The minimum test sizeis specified as 9.5 mm diameter and 19.1 mm height.5.6 Test Method C714Applies to c

26、ircular disks, 2 to 4 mmthick and 6 to 12 mm in diameter. The diameter must not be toolarge relative to the flash source as the front surface needs to beheated uniformly. The specimen thickness must be selectedsuch that t/t1/2is smaller than 0.02, where t is the pulse timeand t1/2is the time for the

27、 rear surface temperature to rise toone half of its maximum value.5.7 Test Method C747Applies to slender rod or bargeometries. The test specimen length to thickness ratio shouldlie in the range 5 to 20:1.5.8 Test Method C748Applies to flat specimens of mini-mum thickness 6.35 mm. The grain size of t

28、he test materialshould be less than 0.8 mm, with a hardness range 0 to 120Rockwell L.5.9 Test Method C749Applies to reduced-diameter uni-axial tensile test geometries as defined in Fig. 9 of thatstandard. Gage diameter must be greater than 3 to 5 times themaximum grain size.5.10 Test Method C769Appl

29、ies to right cylinder geom-etry. The user should minimize attenuation of the sonic pulseby selecting a wavelength appropriate to the grain size of thetest material. If the test specimen is a few grains thick,acceptability of application should be tested over a range oflengths. Specimen should have a

30、 diameter of at least a factor oftwo and ideally a factor of five greater than the wavelength ofsound within the material.5.11 Test Method C886Can be applied to any convenienttest specimen size, but test surfaces smaller than 5 by 5 mm arenot recommended. The material must have a grain size lessthan

31、 0.8 mm. The minimum specimen thickness is 5 mm.5.12 Test Method E228Applies to right cylinder (prefer-able) or slab geometries. Ideally, test specimens should be 25to 60 mm long and 5 to 10 mm in diameter or equivalent(although there is no fundamental limitation provided theinstrument controls the

32、maximum thermal gradient to betterthan 62C/50 mm). The specimen length should be such thatthe accuracy of determining the expansion DL/L0is at least620 mm/m.5.13 Test Method E1461Applies to thin circular diskspecimens with the front surface area less than that of theenergy beam. Typically, test spec

33、imens should be 10 to 12.5mm in diameter and 1 to 6 mm in thickness.5.14 Test Method C1259Can be applied to graphite testspecimens with both round and rectangular cross sections. Theratio of test specimen length to minimal cross-sectional dimen-sion should be greater than 10, and preferably greater

34、than 20.For shear modulus measurements, the test specimen width tothickness ratio should be greater than 5.5.15 Test Method C1161Applies to rectangular parallel-epiped geometries and can be adapted for graphite. Theaverage grain size should be less than 2% of the beamthickness. For beam lengths of 2

35、5, 45, and 90 mm, specifiedwidths are 2, 4, and 8 mm, respectively, and specified depthsare 1.5, 3, and 6 mm, respectively.6. General Principle for Measurements Outside SpecifiedSpecimen Volume/Size Constraints in CurrentStandards6.1 The default position for any user should be to followthese standar

36、ds exactly as described.D7775 11126.2 Specimen size and volume constraints may be set by aparticular measurement technique and hence apply to any testmaterial, but some may depend upon the microstructure andcomposition of the material. In such cases, it is preferable toprovide technical data and bas

37、is to support the choice of theadapted measurement technique and test specimen dimensionsused.6.3 A simple, general principle should be applied to anyproposed measurements that are noncompliant with respect tovolume/size.6.3.1 The user must first specify the level of accuracyrequired for the measure

38、ments together with tolerable repeat-ability, tolerance, and bias uncertainties associated with themeasured properties. This may need to take into account thenumber of specimens used for the measurements.6.3.2 These qualifying measurement criteria must be dem-onstrated using representative material

39、in a manner compliantwith the ASTM standard. The user should take account ofin-service changes to test material (for example, irradiation,oxidation) when selecting representative material for such ademonstration; as-manufactured material may not be suffi-ciently representative for such purposes.6.3.

40、3 The measurements should then be repeated on thesame material, progressively reducing the volume/size of thespecimen and repeating the measurements. Ideally, this proce-dure would involve the successive re-sizing of the startingspecimen. This would ensure that no specimen to specimenvariability aff

41、ected the results. Consideration should be givento within specimen variability and any potential effects ofspecimen preparation that might affect the property measure-ment. This process should be continued until there are suffi-cient compliant data to benchmark the measurement techniqueagainst the m

42、aterial; there should be sufficient data at andbelow the desired test specimen geometry to characterize thedependence of the measured property upon volume/size. It maybe necessary to study more than one parameter and theseshould be varied singly in order not to confound the results.6.3.4 The results

43、 should be analyzed to establish either thestandard can be applied directly to an extended specimenvolume/size range or it can be applied with volume/sizecorrections. In both cases, the accuracy and uncertainty of themeasurement at the desired specimen volume/size should beevaluated and assessed for

44、 acceptability against the originalspecification.6.3.5 It is good practice to retain the test specimens aschecks or secondary standards in the subsequent measurementcampaigns.7. Bulk Density by Physical Measurement (Test MethodC559)7.1 Test Method C559 requires a mass measurement and avolume determi

45、nation by mensuration on a test specimen witheither a rectangular parallelepiped or right cylinder geometry.The standard specifies that the specimen volume should not beless than 500 mm3and the minimum dimension must be atleast ten times the length of the largest visible grain. Theminimum dimension

46、should also be more than 2000 times theresolution of the measuring device. The volume determinationinvolves four length measurements (longest dimension) eitherat the centre of each long face in the case of the rectangularparallelepiped or 90 apart on the periphery of the circular endfaces in the cas

47、e of the right cylinder. For the rectangularparallelepiped, width and thickness at each end and at twointermediate points along the length are required. For the rightcylinder, two sets of diameter measurements are required, eachset consisting of four measurements, one at each end and twoat two inter

48、mediate points along an axial line.7.2 The accuracy of contact measuring devices must beassessed in the context of point and flat contact options.7.3 Principal sources of mensuration error will arise fromgeometry irregularity and from surface condition.7.4 For specimens of regular geometry, mensurat

49、ion couldbe carried out with automated multi-measurement contactdevices that record and analyze results for prescribed measure-ment patterns.7.5 Non-contact scanning devices can also be used todetermine volumes of both regular and non-regular geometryspecimens. Such devices need careful qualification before useto ensure the detectors respond consistently for graphitesurfaces. The calibration and accuracy of the device must betested on volume standards made from materials that respondto the scanning beam in a simple manner to graphite.7.6 Bulk density can also
