24、TION The IEC 60811 series specifies the test methods to be used for testing non-metallic materials of all types of cables. These test methods are intended to be referenced in standards for cable construction and for cable materials. NOTE 1 Non-metallic materials are typically used for insulating, sh

25、eathing, bedding, filling or taping within cables. NOTE 2 These test methods are accepted as basic and fundamental and have been developed and used over many years principally for the materials in all energy cables. They have also been widely accepted and used for other cables, in particular optical

26、 fibre cables, communication and control cables and cables for ships and offshore applications.

27、ne compounds 1 Scope This Part 605 of IEC 60811 describes the test methods for measuring the content of carbon black added for UV stabilization of polyethylene and polyolefin compounds. These methods are not suitable for halogenated compounds. Method A is suitable only for polyethylene and polypropy

28、lene compounds. Method B is suitable for polyolefine compounds. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

30、apply. 4 Test method 4.1 General This part of IEC 60811 shall be used in conjunction with IEC 60811-100. Unless otherwise specified, tests shall be carried out at room temperature. 4.2 Method A Measurement of carbon black and/or mineral filler content in polyethylene by direct combustion 4.2.1 Sampl

31、e and test piece preparation A sample of the outer covering or sheath of sufficient weight shall be taken from one end of the cable. The sample shall be cut in pieces, the dimensions of which shall not exceed 5 mm in any direction. 4.2.2 Test procedure A combustion boat about 75 mm long shall be hea

32、ted until it is red hot, allowed to cool in the desiccator for at least 30 min and weighed to the nearest 0,000 1 g. A sample of polyethylene BS EN 60811-605:201260811-605 IEC:2012 7 weighing (1,0 0,1) g shall be placed in the boat and the whole weighed to the nearest 0,000 1 g. The weight of the bo

33、at shall be subtracted to give the weight of the polyethylene to the nearest 0,000 1 g (quantity A). The boat and the sample shall then be placed in the middle of a hard glass, silica or porcelain combustion tube, with a bore approximately of 30 mm, and (400 50) mm in length. A stopper carrying a th

34、ermometer for temperature measurements from 300 C to 650 C and a tube for the admission of nitrogen shall then be inserted into one end of the combustion tube so that the end of the thermometer touches the boat. Nitrogen with an oxygen content of less than 0,5 % shall be passed through the combustio

35、n tube at (1,7 0,3) l/min and this rate of flow shall be maintained during the subsequent heating. In case of doubt, the oxygen content of the nitrogen shall be limited to 0,01 %. The combustion tube shall be placed in a furnace and its outlet connected to two cold traps in series, both containing t

36、richlorethylene, the first being cooled with solid carbon dioxide. The outlet tube from the second trap shall lead to a fume hood or the outside atmosphere. Alternatively, it is permissible for the outlet from the combustion tube to lead directly to the outside atmosphere. The furnace shall then be

37、heated so that the temperature is between 300 C and 350 C after about 10 min; about 450 C after another 10 min and (600 5) C after a third period of 10 min. This temperature shall then be maintained for 10 min, at the end of which the outlet tube shall be disconnected from the cold traps, if these a

38、re used, and the tube containing the boat withdrawn from the furnace and allowed to cool for 5 min, the flow of nitrogen being maintained at the same rate as before. The boat shall then be removed from the combustion tube through the nitrogen inlet end, allowed to cool in the desiccator for 20 min t

39、o 30 min and then re-weighed. The weight of the residue is determined to the nearest 0,000 1 g (quantity B of residue). Subsequently, the boat shall again be introduced into the combustion tube; instead of nitrogen, air or oxygen shall be blown through the tube at an adequate flow rate for a tempera

40、ture of (600 20) C, and the remaining carbon black shall be burnt. After it has cooled in the test assembly, the boat shall be removed and weighed again. The mass of the residue is determined to the nearest 0,000 1 g (quantity C of residue). 4.2.3 Expression of results Carbon black content = %100ACB

41、Mineral filler content = %001ACTotal filler content = %100AB4.3 Method B Thermogravimetric analysis of the carbon black content in polyolefin compounds NOTE This method may be used as an alternative to that in 4.2 when measuring carbon black content of polyethylene. In the event of dispute, the dire

42、ct combustion method in 4.2 should be used as the reference method. 4.3.1 Principle Heat a weighed test specimen in a thermogravimetric analyser, starting at 100 C with 20 K/min up to 950 C. BS EN 60811-605:2012 8 60811-605 IEC:2012 NOTE 1 A starting temperature of 100 C is practical, as the subsequ

43、ent measurements can be carried out earlier because of the shorter cooling time. At first, purge the test specimen with dry nitrogen with an oxygen content as described in 4.3.2. When the temperature of 850 C is reached, switch from dry nitrogen to “synthetic air”. With the switch to air, the combus

44、tion of the carbon black that is present will follow. NOTE 2 Weight loss during the purging stage with nitrogen, up to approximately 800 C, is due to degradation of the polymer and loss of other minor ingredients. 4.3.2 Reagents The following reagents shall be used: dry nitrogen with an oxygen conte

45、nt of less than 10 mg/kg; dry “synthetic air” (a mixture of 80 % nitrogen and 20 % oxygen). 4.3.3 Apparatus The apparatus comprises: a) a thermogravimetric analyser; b) a gas selector; c) a plotter or other suitable device; d) an analytical balance. 4.3.4 Procedure 4.3.4.1 Parameters of the apparatu

46、s a) starting temperature 100 C; b) heating rate 20 K/min; c) end temperature 950 C; d) weighed test specimen 5 mg to 10 mg; e) purging gas up to 850 C dry nitrogen; f) purging gas from 850 C to 950 C dry “synthetic air”. 4.3.4.2 Operation Operate the apparatus according to the manufacturers instruc

47、tions and the parameters given in 4.3.4.1. Cover the bottom of the crucible with the test specimen, which should consist of a sheet which is as thin as possible. Before the start of the heating period, ensure that an oxygen-free atmosphere is obtained by purging with nitrogen as specified in 4.3.2 f

48、or at least 5 min. 4.3.4.3 Evaluation The share of carbon black in the compound is determined for each single test specimen from the weight change during burning in dry “synthetic air” from 850 C to 950 C. The ignition residue at 950 C is, at the same time, the ash content. 5 Test report The test re

49、port shall be in accordance with that given in IEC 60811-100.
