Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method consists of subjecting a sample ofpowder to the action of a hydrogen-containing gas understandard conditions of temperature and time and measuring th

9、eresulting loss of mass.5. Significance and Use5.1 The oxygen content of a powder affects both its greenand sintered properties.5.2 Hydrogen loss is a term widely used in the powdermetallurgy industry even though the measurement representsan approximate oxygen content of the powder.5.3 Oxygen is the

10、 most common hydrogen-reducible con-stituent of metal powders, and this procedure may be used as ameasure of oxygen, reducible under the test conditions, if otherinterfering elements are absent.6. Interferences6.1 If carbon or sulfur is present, or both, are present, theywill be largely removed in t

11、he test. Their loss in mass isincluded in the total loss in mass measurement and must besubtracted from the total mass loss.6.2 If metals or compounds are present that vaporize at thetest temperature (such as cadmium, lead, zinc, and so forth),their effect is included in the loss of mass measurement

12、 andmust be subtracted from the total mass loss.6.3 If some components are present that are oxidized orhydrided during the test, there is a gain in mass that must beadded to the total mass loss.7. Apparatus7.1 Furnace, capable of operating at the prescribed tem-perature.7.2 Temperature Control, capa

Precision and Bias13.1 A statement of precision provides guidelines as to thekind of variability that can be expected between test resultswhen the method is used in one o

35、r more reasonably competentlaboratories.13.2 The precision of this test method has not been deter-mined by a statistically valid interlaboratory test because of thelimited number of participating laboratories (less than six).13.3 The following precision data were developed using theprocedures contai

36、ned in Test Method E 159 from an interlabor-tory test conducted by four laboratories in 1994. The percentloss in mass in hydrogen was determined for four samples, acobalt powder, a copper powder, an iron powder, and atungsten powder. Except for the use of only four laboratories,Practice E 691 was fo
