NOTEThe European references to international publications are given in Annex ZA (normative).EN24003:1993 BSI 10-1999 3 1 Scope and field of application This International Standard specifies a method, known as the bubble test method, for the determination of th

22、e pore size of permeable sintered powder metallurgical materials, i.e. filters, porous bearings, porous electrodes and other parts with interconnected porosity. NOTEThe bubble test shall be considered as a quality control test and not as a test for defining filter grades or determining exact pore si

23、ze and pore size distribution. 2 Reference ISO 2738, Permeable sintered metal materials Determination of density and open porosity. 3 Principle Impregnation of a test piece with a test liquid. Immersion of the test piece in the test liquid and introduction of a gas (usually air) into the test piece

24、at gradually increasing pressure. Determination of the pressure at which bubbles are emitted from the surface of the test piece. Evaluation of the equivalent bubble test pore size by means of a mathematical formula. 4 Definition bubble test pore size the maximum equivalent capillary diameter in the

25、test piece which is calculated from the measured minimum pressure required to force the first bubble of gas through the test piece (under standardized conditions) impregnated with a liquid the first bubble of gas will form at the pore having the greatest throat, the throat being the narrowest sectio

26、n of this pore for calculation purposes, it is assumed that this bubble forms at the end of a capillary tube of circular cross-section which is initially filled with the same liquid of known surface tension for a circular capillary, the diameter is related to the bubble pressure by the equation: NOT

27、E 1The bubble test pore size corresponds to the minimum differential pressure at which constant bubbling first occurs. For this reason, this pressure is sometimes termed “minimum bubble pressure” or “first bubble point”. The corresponding capillary diameter is sometimes termed “maximum pore size” or

28、 “maximum pore diameter”, or “largest pore size”. However, the maximum pore size determined with this method may be the result of a single local defect, and therefore not representative of the pore population. NOTE 2As the gas pressure increases beyond the minimum bubble pressure (first bubble point

29、), different aspects of bubbling occur on the test piece. The pressure for a given aspect can lead to the definition of a conventional pore size. For example, the pressure for which a generalized bubbling occurs is frequently specified (foaming over the whole surface). These particular definitions s

30、hould be agreed between the supplier and the user. Moreover, the uniformity of distribution of pores approaching the maximum pore size may be observed by gradually increasing the gas pressure. Cracks and clogged areas are easily discerned by this operation. NOTE 3The bubble test does not constitute

31、a measurement of the maximum size of particle that the permeable test piece will pass (retentivity of a filter). A filter may be expected to retain all particles larger than the maximum pore size as defined by the bubble test; but, because of irregularity in shape of pores and other phenomena relate

32、d to the filtration process, the same filter will retain particles which are much smaller than the maximum pore size. The determination of the size of the largest non-deforming particle which can pass through the porosity requires time-consuming methods, for example a glass-bead test. For estimation

33、 purposes it is useful to take empirical factors, which are to be multiplied with the bubble test pore size calculated from equation (1). The factor is about0,4for porous metal made from uniform spherical particles; and about0,2for porous metal made from irregular particles. . . .(1) d 4 %p - = wher

34、e d is the capillary diameter corresponding to the bubble test pore size, in metres; * is the surface tension of the test liquid, in newtons per metre; %p is the differential pressure, in pascals, across the test piece under static conditions, i.e. %p = p g p l . . .(2) p g being the gas pressure, i

37、acility to maintain a constant pressure at each step. 5.3 Flow-meter, if required. 5.4 Device to measure the effective gas pressure, measuring to an accuracy of 1% (mechanical pressure gauge, or water or mercury manometer). This device shall be placed close to the bubble test cell, in order to facil

38、itate the simultaneous observation of the bubble appearance and the pressure value. 5.5 Assembly for observing the bubble appearance at the surface of the test piece, according to the shape of the test piece, and for ensuring that the test piece is completely saturated with the liquid, and immersed

39、under a constant depth of the liquid throughout the test. If the test piece is hollow or of a shape other than flat, it should be rotated with its major axis horizontal so that the whole surface is examined. 5.6 Test liquid, selected in relation to the kind of metal composing the test piece. Among p

40、ure liquids which wet metals perfectly, 95% ethanol, methanol, isopropanol or carbon tetrachloride are most generally employed (see the Table for properties). The test is carried out at room temperature(20 5 C). The surface tension, *, of the test liquid may be obtained from tables of physical const

41、ants. Figure Bubble test assemblyEN24003:1993 BSI 10-1999 5 Table Test liquids suitable for use with permeable metals 6 Procedure The test piece shall be clean, dry and free from extraneous material and any trace of grease or similar substances likely to hinder the perfect and uniform wetting action

42、 of the test liquid. Impregnate the test piece completely with the test liquid. Insert it in the bubble test apparatus and maintain it fixed, immersed under the smallest depth of test liquid consistent with the convenient observation of the appearance of the bubbles. Measure this depth h (see the Fi

43、gure) and the temperature of the liquid. From an effective gas pressure of zero, increase the pressure regularly at a rate of between20and100Pa/s (according to the estimated pore size), while the surface of the test piece is under constant observation. In the case of a hollow cylindrical test piece,

44、 rotate it so that all of the surface is observed; in this case, increase the pressure in steps, each of from50to500Pa (according to the estimated pore size), so that each new pressure value is maintained whilst the surface is observed during the rotation. Note the first bubble pressure when a strin

45、g of bubbles occurs from one distinct point (or perhaps several distinct points at the same time). If there is a defect, the first bubble may appear in a zone remote from the upper surface. In this event, reduce the pressure and repeat the test after rotating the sample on its own axis; increase the

46、 pressure again incrementally. NOTE 1The test piece shall be impregnated to ensure the saturation of its open porosity. A vacuum impregnation in accordance with the requirements given in ISO2738is recommended. NOTE 2When a determination is repeated on the same sample, it is necessary to re-impregnat

47、e the sample totally before retesting. NOTE 3It is important that the test piece be properly sealed in the apparatus. If bubbles emerge from the proximity of the seals, the result shall be ignored and the test repeated with improved seals. NOTE 4When the test piece is composed of a layer of fine por

48、es supported on a base of coarser pores, the bubble test pore size characterizing the material is that of the fine pore layer. The test piece shall be tested in such a way that the bubbles appear at the surface of the fine pore layer. NOTE 5By agreement between user and supplier, pore sizes correspo
