Summary of Test Methods4.1 GeneralTest MethodAis the more accura

21、te method ofdensity measurement in cases in which specimen conditioning(oven drying) can be followed or outgassing can be mitigatedby purge settings. Outgassing, such as the release of watervapor from unconditioned fibers when exposed to a dry gas,will reduce the precision of Test Method A by introd

22、ucingvapor pressure to the gas pressure being used for measurement.In cases in which outgassing cannot be addressed by ovendrying the sample or increasing the purge cycle/time, theresults from Test Method A are invalid. Test Method B can beused as an alternative to Test Method A in applications inwh

23、ich high precision is not required. Test Method B has asimilar method and equipment setup to Test Method D3800,but has been augmented to provide more accurate results forflax fibers.4.2 Test Method APycnometry Method:4.2.1 Sample volume is determined by the application ofBoyles Law, which states tha

24、t the increase in volume of aconfined gas results in a proportionate decrease in pressure.The apparatus consists of two chambers of known volumeconnected by a valve. One of the chambers, the calibratedsample chamber, is accessible for insertion of the test specimenand is connected to a source of hig

25、h purity (at least 99.99 %)dry gas, such as nitrogen. The pressure in the sample chamberis increased to a predetermined pressure and this value, P1,isnoted. The valve between the two chambers is then opened andthe second, lower pressure, P2, is again noted. The ratio of thepressure change P1/P2, is

26、directly related to the volume of thesample chamber displaced by the specimen. The differencebetween this volume and the geometric volume of the speci-men is a measure of the sample volume.4.2.2 The sample is weighed to determine the sample massand the density of the sample is calculated by dividing

27、 thesample mass by the sample volume.4.3 Test Method BBuoyancy (Archimedes) Method:4.3.1 The sample is weighed in air and weighed in certifiedsoybean oil that will thoroughly wet the sample and is of alower density.4.3.2 The difference in weight of the samples in the twomedia is the buoyancy force.

28、This force is converted to samplevolume by dividing it by the soybean oil density. The sampleweight in air divided by the sample volume equals the sampledensity.5. Significance and Use5.1 Fiber density is useful in the evaluation of new materialsat the research and development level and is one of th

29、e materialproperties normally given in fiber specifications.5.2 Fiber density can be used to determine fiber strength andmodulus of a single fiber or bundle of fibers. These propertiesare based on load or modulus slope over an effective area.Fiber density, when used with the lineal mass of the speci

30、men,can calculate an approximate, total effective area for thespecimen.5.3 In composite applications, fiber density is used asconstituent property when determining reinforcement volumeand void volume based on reinforcement mass and laminatedensity.6. Interferences6.1 General (All Methods):6.1.1 Remo

31、val of ImpuritiesA bias will exist if impuritiesare not removed as the measured fiber density will be acombination of the average densities of the fiber and impurity.Eq 1 may be used to calculate the effect of the impurity on thedensity of the material.if5100 2 xi!f1xii!100(1)6.2 Test Method A:6.2.1

32、 The presence of components that can outgas duringtesting, such as water vapor or volatile organic compounds,interfere with the measurement of the gas pressure and, if notmitigated, can invalidate the results. Typically, oven dryingspecimens at a temperature higher than the density testingtemperatur

33、e or increasing the amount/time of purge cycles willsufficiently reduce the effect of outgassing in typical samples.6.2.2 Changes in temperature can cause changes in volume.The equipment and specimens should be given sufficient timeto a reach a steady state condition.6.3 Test Method B:6.3.1 Temperat

34、ureThe temperature of the certified soy-bean oil shall remain constant within a tolerance of 61 C,since the soybean oil density will change with temperature.D8171 1826.3.2 Sample Wetting (Entrapped Air)Since this testmethod is very dependent on buoyancy, any entrapped air inthe sample will change th

35、e measured density and not give atrue material density. Ensure visually that the sample does notcontain entrapped air bubbles.6.3.3 Immersion PointThe distance the sample is loweredinto the soybean oil and overall liquid level should be the samethroughout determinations for Procedure A. This may be

36、doneby putting a line for the desired soybean oil level on the outsideof the container.TEST METHOD AGAS PYCNOMETRY7. Apparatus7.1 Test Method A:7.1.1 Commercial pycnometer instruments are availablefrom several manufacturers. The commercial instruments orcustom laboratory setups should include, at mi

37、nimum, thefollowing:7.1.1.1 Calibrated sample volume chambera chamberhaving a volume suitable to the sample size and calibrated tothe nearest 0.1 cm3. The chamber shall be accessible to theoperator such that a sample can be loaded into the chamber andthen sealed for testing. The chamber should have

38、a knownvolume (Vscm3).7.1.1.2 Calibrated expansion volume chamber, a chamber ofknown volume (Vecm3) that is calibrated to the nearest 0.1cm3.7.1.1.3 Pressure transducer, capable of measuring 0 to 175kPa with minimum volume displacement and linear within0.1 %.7.1.1.4 Pressure relief valve, used to av

39、oid the overpressur-ization of the transducer.7.1.1.5 Filter, prevents powder or dust from contaminatingthe transducer and valves.7.1.1.6 Input flow control valve, controls the rate of pres-surization.7.1.1.7 Output flow control valve, controls the rate ofdepressurization.7.1.1.8 Connection valve, c

40、onnects the calibrated samplevolume chamber with the calibrated expansion volume cham-ber.7.1.1.9 Nonporous calibration standard(s), object(s) ofknown volume that can be used in different configurations tocalibrate the chambers for different volumes of sample.7.1.1.10 Digital meter, used for reading

41、 the pressure to0.007 kPa.7.1.1.11 Analytical balance, capable of weighing to 0.001 g.7.1.2 The minimum volume of solid material (Vmin) re-quired to produce accurate measurements is equipment specificand shall be known before conducting testing. The volume canbe based on manufacturer recommendations

42、 or determinedthrough testing. If done through testing, Vminwould be thevolume in which increasing the volume of the solid materialbeing measured does not change the value of the results beyondwhat would fall within sample or standard deviation.8. Reagents and Materials8.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent-

43、grade chemicals shall beused in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatall reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Commit-tee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society,where such specifications are available.4Other grades may beused, provided it is first

44、ascertained that the reagent is ofsufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening theaccuracy of the determination.8.2 Nitrogen, dry and of 99.99 % purity.NOTE 1Helium is a commonly used gas in gas pycnometer systemsand providing that it is dry and of 99.9 % purity, it can be used inste

45、ad ofnitrogen; however, in some cases, molecules may be sufficiently smallenough to penetrate the cell walls of the fibers. This phenomenon can beidentified when both of the following occur: P1decreases slowly after thesample chamber was sealed (helium entering the solid) and P2s value willrise foll

46、owing the initial drop after the valve between the two chambers isopened (helium being released from the solid). If helium penetrationoccurs, it is recommended that a lower pressure, longer equilibrium time,or nitrogen be used.9. Hazards9.1 Appropriate precautions should be taken when handlingcompre

47、ssed gases.10. Sampling, Test Specimens, and Test Units10.1 Specimens should be chosen to represent the largerbulk sample from which it is taken.10.2 For statistical purposes, a minimum of five specimensfor each sample should be tested.10.3 Tests should not use a volume less than Vminfor eachspecime

48、n. For the best results, the maximum amount of solidvolume that can reasonably be packed into the sample chambershould be used for each specimen.11. Calibration and Standardization11.1 The apparatus should be calibrated following themanufacturers recommendations for procedure and frequency.Because o

49、f the low packing density of fibers, alternate calibra-tion routines may need to be selected or modified to improveprecision when the solid volume of specimen in the chamber islower than the manufacturers recommended loading.11.2 For highest precision results, perform a calibrationroutine before testing.11.3 It is recommended that a leak check be done before aseries of tests.12. Conditioning12.1 Before testing, fibers should be conditioned to equilib-rium at 0 % relative humidity (RH) at the temperature thetesting will occur. This will remove moist
