7、 Interlaboratory Study to Determine the Precision of a Test Method3. Significance and Use3.1 In general, with materials of these types, softening does not take place at a definite temperature. As the temperature rises,these materials gradually change from brittle or exceedingly thick and slow-flowin

8、g materials to softer and less viscous liquids.For this reason, the determination of the softening point must be made by a fixed, arbitrary, and closely defined method if the resultsobtained are to be comparable.3.2 In these test methods, the softening point is defined as the temperature at which a

9、disk of the sample held within a horizontalring is forced downward a distance of 25.4 mm (1 in.)mm (1 in.) under the weight of a steel ball as the sample is heated at 5C/minin a water, glycerin, silicone oil, ethylene glycol/water or glycerin/water bath.3.3 The automatic method was chosen to be the

10、reference method because a round robin demonstrated that it gave more preciseresults than the manual method.4. Sample Preparation4.1 Preparation of Sample by the Pour Method:4.1.1 This procedure is suitable for materials that can be heated and poured without adverse effects on the softening point.1

11、These test methods are under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D01 on Paint and Related Coatings, Materials, and Applications and are the direct responsibility ofSubcommittee D01.34 on Pine Chemicals and Hydrocarbon Resins.Current edition approved June 1, 2009July 1, 2014.

The sample should consist of flakes, pastilles, or freshly brokenlumps free of oxidized surfaces. Avoid inclusion of finely divided material or dust.4.1.3 Select a quantity at least twice

16、that necessary to fill the desired number of rings, and melt it immediately in a cleancontainer, using an oven, hot plate, sand bath or oil bath to prevent local overheating. Take care to avoid incorporating air bubblesin the sample. Melt the sample completely, but do not heat it above a temperature

17、 necessary to pour the material readily. The timefrom the beginning of heating to the pouring of the sample should not exceed 15 min.NOTE 2For materials that may be heat sensitive, continuously inert the flask containing the test specimen with nitrogen (N2) during the remeltingprocedure.4.1.4 For ma

18、terials that tend to crack or shrink in the ring on cooling, immediately before filling the ring, preheat the ring toapproximately the temperature at which the material is to be poured. The ring, while being filled, should rest bottom down on asuitable metal surface. Pour the sample into the ring so

19、 as to leave an excess on cooling.After cooling a minimum of 30 min, trimoff the excess resin on the periphery of the ring. To remove excess resin from the top, cut the excess material off cleanly with aslightly heated knife or spatula, or grasp the ring in a pair of tongs and draw the top surface q

20、uickly and firmly over the surfaceof a heated metal plate. In case the test is repeated, use a clean container and fresh sample.4.2 Preparation of Sample by the Molding Method:4.2.1 See Appendix X1, Alternate Sample Preparation Procedures.4.3 Preparation of Samples Having a Low Softening Point (up t

The material in the ring must be free of bubbles.4.3.2 After cooling, cut and scrape off any excess material using a slight

22、ly heated spatula, then slide the ring gently from thefoil. Place the ring in the supporting apparatus, and immediately perform the softening point analysis according to Section 11.5. Reagents and Materials5.1 Bath Liquids:5.1.1 Distilled or Deionized Water, Freshly BoiledFor softening points betwee

23、n 35C (95F) and 80C (176F).5.1.1.1 Use distilled or deionized water that has been cooled to at least 27C (81F) below the anticipated softening point, butin no case lower than 5C (41F).5.1.2 USP GlycerinFor softening points between 80C (176F) and 150C (302F). Repeated use of glycerin will increase th

24、emoisture content over time and may affect results. Replace with fresh glycerin if any change in appearance is noted.NOTE 3Glycerin should not be used for softening points greater than 150C (302F) due to the 160C (320F) flash point of glycerin.5.1.3 Silicone Oil (Polydimethylsiloxane)For softening p

25、oints above 80C (176F). The silicone oil must have a temperaturerange of 200C + (392F), remain clear within the temperature range, have no apparent reactivity with the test specimen, have ahigh water repellency, and maintain a uniform viscosity and stirring rate within the temperature range.3NOTE 4R

26、eplace with fresh silicone oil if any change in appearance is noted. Do not use silicone oil that contains any gels; gels are an indicator thatdegradation has occurred.5.1.4 Ethylene GlycolGlycol/WaterFor softening points up to 35C (95F).5.1.4.1 Prepare a fresh 50/50 (v/v) mixture of distilled water

27、 and ethylene glycol prior to sample analysis. For softening pointsbetween 0C and 35C, a 50/50 (v/v) mixture of glycerin and water may be used.REFERENCE METHODAUTOMATED RING AND BALL SOFTENING POINT METHOD6.
