Also optionally, thecontrol may be ground to an agreed upon fineness of grind gagereading and the test material(s) ground the same amount oftime. The fineness of grind gage is preheated to 205 6 5F (966 3C) by placing

36、on a hot plate. Temperature of hot platesurface should be checked with the dial surface thermometer(see Test Method D 1210 for fineness of grind test).

Mill shouldbe located in well-ventilated area to reduce solvent fumes.Waste solvent from cleaning should be

39、put in an approvedsafety container.9.2.2 Check that the ball mill is operating at its correctcritical speed. The critical speed, Sc, in r/min is determined bythe equation:Sc54.19 / =R!where:R = ball mill inside radius in feet.9.2.3 Preheat the ball mill hatch covers to the mill operatingtemperature.

Check the jacket inlet and outlet tempera-ture. Check the temperature of the mills contents.9.2.5 Determine the weight

42、s of the ingredients of the carbonpaper ink needed to provide a total volume equal to 25 % of theball mills capacity. The composition of the ink and the percentof alkali blue used is to be mutually agreed on by the purchaserand supplier.9.2.6 Weigh the required amounts of all the ingredientsexcept t

43、he alkali blue, which is weighed separately on the moresensitive balance.9.2.7 Add all ingredients except the alkali blue to the ballmill. Secure the hatch cover on the mill. If the cover isequipped with a valve, make sure it is securely closed.9.2.8 Start mill and run for 15 min to heat the content

Replace vent plug and manually rotatethe mill so that the hatch is in the top position. Open hatch andadd the

45、 alkali blue. Close and secure the hatch.9.2.10 Start mill and grind until the agreed-upon fineness ofgrind gage reading is obtained for the ink. Optionally, a specificgrinding time, mutually agreed on by the purchaser andsupplier may be used. Also optionally, the control may beground to an agreed u
