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 theresulting loss of mass.5. S

9、ignificance 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 most common hydrogen-reduci

10、ble 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 the test. Their loss in mass
