1、Designation: C279 17Standard Specification forChemical-Resistant Masonry Units1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C279; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parenth

2、eses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers solid, kiln fired brick and tilemade from clay, shale, or mixtures thereof, suitable for indoorand outdoor use in masonry con

3、struction subjected to chemicalenvironments (see Terminology C1232).1.2 The brick and tile covered herein are intended for use inchemical environments where resistance to thermal shock maybe a consideration. The brick and tile are normally used withchemical-resistant mortars.1.3 The values stated in

4、 inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It

5、is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization

8、ons relating to chemical-resistant masonry units, refer to Terminology C1232.4. Classification4.1 The physical and chemical properties of brick and tilediffer from supplier to supplier, mainly because their compo-sition is determined by the source of raw materials. Regardlessof the differences, bric

9、k and tile are considered to be one ofthree types and one of two classes as follows:4.1.1 Type IFor use where low absorption and high acidresistance are not major factors.4.1.2 Type IIFor use where lower absorption and higheracid resistance are required.4.1.3 Type IIIFor use where minimum absorption

10、 andmaximum acid resistance are required.NOTE 1Types I, II, and III may not differ significantly in thermalshock resistance. The suitability of a given brick, for a particularapplication should be determined at the time of purchase by agreementbetween the purchaser and the supplier.NOTE 2Types I and

11、 III were formerly designated Type “H” and “L”respectively.4.1.4 Class SFor use in standard applications.4.1.5 Class XFor use where a higher degree of precisionand lower permissible variation in size than that permitted forClass S is required.5. Physical Properties5.1 StrengthThe brick and tile when

12、 tested in accordancewith Test Methods C67 shall conform to the requirements formodulus of rupture (flexural strength) for the type specified, asprescribed in Table 1.5.2 Water AbsorptionThe brick and tile when tested inaccordance with Test Methods C20 shall conform to therequirements for water abso

17、uides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.1Mon Apr 30 39 measurements of the brick or tile shall be within 63 % of thespecified dimensions for Class S units and within 61.5 % ofthe specified dimensions for Class X units.6.2 WarpageTh

18、e brick and tile shall conform to therequirements as shown in Table 2.7. Finish and Appearance7.1 Surface TexturesBrick or tile surfaces are often tex-tured in order to promote better bonding. Texturing is accom-plished by scoring, wire cutting, matting, or other meansconsistent with a manufacturers

19、 process. If texturing is done,the protrusion or indentation shall not exceed18 in. (3 mm) indepth.7.2 The brick and tile shall be free of open surface lamina-tions or cracks which would impair the performance of theconstruction.NOTE 3Open laminations or cracks within the brick or tile observedin th

20、e brick or tile cut or broken during testing, should be noted with theirsize and number indicated as part of the test report. If internal openlaminations or cracks, or both, are reported, the purchaser shall determinethe suitability of such brick or tile for his application.7.3 Black HeartBrick or t

21、ile when broken may have adark area that has a steely appearance and is sharply delineatedfrom the surrounding normal color of the brick. It is known asblack heart or black core. Black heart is generally the result ofthe reduction of iron minerals during the firing process. Itspresence, regardless o

22、f size, in brick or tile which otherwisemeet the physical and chemical requirements of thisspecification, shall not be cause for rejection.8.

25、five masonry units selected in accordance with TestMethods C67. Remove and discard the skin surface from aquarter of each unit selected and crush the remaining pieces ina jaw-type crusher, with the jaws set so that the grain size of theproduct ranges from material retained on a14-in.

Reduce thismaterial either by mixing and quartering or by a mechanicalsplitter to approximately a 1000-g sample, and screen in amechanical shaking device for 15 min, using the No. 3(6.75-mm) and No. 4 (4.75-mm) sieves. Thoroughly mix theportion of the mate

27、rial passing the No. 3 (6.75-mm) sieve andremaining on the No. 4 (4.75-mm) sieve (Note 4), and thenquarter down to obtain two 50-g samples. Dry these samples ina drying oven at 221 to 239F (105 to 115C) for at least 16 h,and then cool in a desiccator.NOTE 4Although it is recognized that some types o

28、f material tend tobreak down in a manner yielding various-shaped particles, no attemptshall be made at hand selection.8.3 ProcedureTransfer each of the 50-g samples, weighedto the nearest 0.01 g, and 250 mL of sulfuric acid (sp gr 1.706,or 78 weight % 60 Baum) to 750-mL Erlenmeyer flasks.Insert wate

29、r-cooled condensers and boil on hot plates for 48 h(Note 5). Cool the flasks and contents sufficiently to permithandling, and decant the solutions through fritted-glass funnelswith the aid of suction, retaining the samples in the flasks. Addabout 250 mL of water to the flasks, boil for 10 min, and d

30、ecantwith the aid of suction through the same funnels as usedpreviously. Repeat this washing procedure three times. On thefourth decantation of wash water, transfer the samples to thefunnels, using hot water to aid in the transfer. Dry the funnelsand contents in an oven at 221 to 239F (105 to 115C)

31、for atleast 16 h, and cool in a desiccator. Remove material from thefunnels, brushing out the fines if necessary, and weigh to thenearest 0.01 g.NOTE 5Regulate the temperature of the hot plate so as to maintain agentle boiling solution avoiding any considerable agitation of the sample.The use of a v

32、ariable transformer in series with the hot plate is suggested.8.4 Calculation and ReportCalculate the loss in weight asa percentage of the original weight.
