Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 maximum pore diameterthe diameter in microme-tres of a capillary of circular cross section that is equivalent(with respect to characteristics related to surface-tension

6、ef-fects) to the largest pore in the filter under consideration.NOTE 1It is recognized that the maximum pore diameter as definedherein does not necessarily indicate the physical dimensions of the largestpore in the filter, and furthermore, that the pores are highly irregular inshape. Because of this

7、 irregularity in shape and other phenomenacharacteristic of filtration, a filter may be expected to retain all particleslarger than the maximum pore diameter as defined and determined by thistest method, and will generally retain particles which are much smallerthan the determined diameter.3.1.2 per

Summary of Test Method4.1 Maximum Pore Diameter, is determined by immersingthe filter in a suitable test liquid and applying air pressure untilthe first bubble of air pas

9、ses through the filter. The maximumpore diameter is calculated from the surface tension of the testliquid and the applied pressure.4.2 Permeability is determined by measuring the flow ofair through the filter when subjected to a pressure differential.5. Apparatus5.1 Because of the variety of shapes

10、of apparatus in whichporous filters are incorporated, the apparatus for this testmethod is not specified in detail.Apparatus that has been foundsatisfactory is illustrated in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.6. Procedure6.1 Maximum Pore DiameterThoroughly wet the cleanfilter to be tested by soaking it in the presc

11、ribed test liquid (seeTable 1). Connect the filter to a controllable source of clean,dry compressed air, and a manometer (Fig. 1). Immerse thefilter just below the surface of the test liquid (Note 2) andgradually increase the air pressure at a rate of about 5 mm/minin the area of the test until the

12、first dynamic bubble passesthrough the filter and rises through the liquid. The appearanceof the first true dynamic bubble is readily recognized since it isfollowed by a succession of additional bubbles. Read thepressure from the manometer. If the test is to be repeated,thoroughly re-wet the filter

13、by soaking it in the test liquid,before proceeding with the retest. Calculate the maximum porediameter from the following equation (see Appendix X1 forderivation):D 5 30g/p (1)where:D = maximum pore diameter as defined in 3.1.1,g = surface tension of test liquid in dynes/cm at thetemperature of the

14、test, andp = pressure, mm Hg (Note 3).The uniformity of distribution of pores approaching themaximum pore size may be observed by gradually increasingthe air pressure and noting the uniformity with which streams1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E41 onLaboratory Apparatus

When the maximum pore diameter of anew filter is tested by this test method, it may be expected to be within themarked range; greater deviation may be found after use.6.2 PermeabilityConnect the dry filter with the

DERIVATION OF THE PORE DIAMETER EQUATIONX1.1 In the classical determination of surface tension bycapillary rise, a capillary tube is immersed vertically in a liquidwhich wets the tube. The surface tension of the liquid crea

30、tesa force which draws the liquid upward into the capillary untilthis force is in equilibrium with the downward force caused bythe action of gravity on the column of liquid. This equilibriumcondition is expressed by the equation.2prg cos u5pr2hdg (X1.1)where:r = radius of the capillary,h = height of

31、 the column of liquid,g = surface tension of the liquid,d = density,u = angle of contact between the surface of the liquid andthe wall of the capillary, andg = acceleration due to gravity.When g is in dynes per centimetre, h and r will be incentimetres. When the liquid wets the capillary with a zero

32、contact angle as is specified by the method, u = 0 and cos u =1,so that Eq X1.1 may be restated as:r 5 2g/hdg (X1.2)orD 5 4g/hdg (X1.3)where D = diameter of the capillary in centimetres. Butunder the conditions of the method it is more convenient tomeasure the diameter in micrometres and the pressur
