Petrographic Examination8.1 General:8.1.1 Petrographic examination refers to methods in Prac-tice C 856 and principally to light microscopy and to use of apetrographic microscope and a stereoscopic low power micro-scope. Ancillary techniques include X-ray diffractometry andsc
25、anning electron microscopy.8.1.2 X-ray diffraction analysis can be used to identifyphases present in mortar. This information, in conjunction withthe petrographic microscopy information, is a basis for deter-mining, for the chemical analysis, which calcium oxide ormagnesium oxide sub-procedure is ne
26、cessary.8.1.3 The petrographic and X-ray diffraction information isnecessary for interpretations in calculating mortar composition.8.2 Mortar:8.2.1 Observe the mortar as appropriate, focusing attentionon overall mortar appearance, characteristics of tooled sur-faces, fracture surfaces and surfaces c
27、ontacting masonry units,and secondary substances (efflorescence and internal secondaryproducts). Describe and report the observations.8.2.2 If X-ray diffraction methods are used, analyze forcrystalline components in accordance with individual XRDequipment techniques.8.3 Aggregate:8.3.1 Examine the a
28、ggregate component of the mortar forrock and mineral composition using methods of Guide C 295and Practice C 856.8.3.2 If components of the aggregate are acid-insoluble,gently break the mortar, and dissolve the paste matrix usingdilute hydrochloric acid, and thoroughly wash and filter theresidue. Dry
29、 the aggregate residue, and examine it microscopi-cally. The residue may also be sorted into particle sizes usingthe sieving method of Specification C 144. Aggregate particlesbroken during the mortar breakdown will skew the gradationanalysis results.8.4 PasteExamine the paste fraction of the mortar

Characterize air voids by locations, disposition,and relative size.8.5.2 Estimate the volume of air relative to the volume ofthe mortar, and report the estimate as percent air.8.5.3 Meas

Describe, identify, andcharacterize products present.8.7 Evaluation of Petrographic Data:8.7.1 Mineralogical characteristics of the aggregate shouldbe evaluated relati
36、ve to components that could interfere in anysubsequent chemical analyses, any chemical or physical insta-bility relative to alkali-silica and alkali-carbonate reactions,any degradation due to freezing and thawing, and stabilitywhen exposed to moisture.8.7.2 The paste should be evaluated so the origi
37、nal cemen-titious components used for preparing the mortar can beidentified.8.7.3 The air-void data should be evaluated so that themortar can be classed as non-air-entrained or air-entrained.8.7.4 The individual observations of aggregate, paste, air,secondary products, and tooled and other surfaces
38、should beintegrated to establish overall compositional and texturalcharacteristics of the mortar.8.8 MiscellaneousA report of the results of the petro-graphic examination should be prepared as a section of theoverall report, or as a separate report, depending upon thepurpose of the study. The report
39、 should include details abouteach item in 8.2 through 8.7.9. Chemical Analysis9.1 Sample PreparationCrush or grind a representativeportion of the sample so that all the material passes a 300 m(No. 50) sieve. To minimize the production of very finematerial, use several passes of the sample through th
40、e grindingequipment. Remove the portion passing the sieve beforeregrinding the remainder of the sample. Thoroughly mix byconing from one paper to another ten times.9.2 Soluble Silica Sub-procedure (variation of method usedin Test Method C 1084):9.2.1 Into two 250-mLbeakers introduce 100 mL1 + 4 HCl.
41、Cool within the range of 3 to 5C (38 to 41F) using an ice bathor electric cooling apparatus.69.2.2 Slowly, over a 1-min period, introduce a 2.00-gsample of crushed mortar. Maintain the 3 to 5C temperaturefor a 5-min period, and stir the mixture either continuously orat least several times during thi
42、s period.NOTE 2Observation of the solution during the introduction of thesample may provide useful information. Rapid effervescence indicates asubstantial amount of calcite or carbonated paste. Slow effervescencesuggests a dolomite aggregate.9.2.3 Decant through a Buchner porcelain funnel fittedsnug
43、ly with two disks of a quantitative filter paper for fineprecipitates, Type II, Class G filter paper. Once the filtrationhas begun, take care so the mat and accumulated residue do notdry completely until the filtration process is complete. Regulatethe suction to maintain a rapid rate of filtration d
44、uring thegreater part of the filtration process. Retain as much of theresidue in the beaker as possible. Wash twice by decantationwith hot water. Save the filtrate. Carefully transfer the filterpaper from the funnel to the beaker containing the balance ofthe residue so that no residue is lost. Add 7
45、5 mL of hot sodiumhydroxide solution (10 g/L) to the residue while stirring,macerate the filter paper, and digest for 15 min. During thedigestion, occasionally stir the mixture. Decant as before, andwash twice with hot water until the filtrate is neutral to litmus.Combine the filtrates in a 400-mL b
46、eaker.9.2.4 Proceed to analyze as provided in 9.2.5 and 9.2.6,oranalyze the soluble silica by any instrumental method foundacceptable for cement analysis in accordance with the perfor-mance requirement for rapid methods of Test Methods C 114,provided it can be applied to the filtrate.NOTE 3Suitable
47、instrumental techniques may include atomic absorp-tion or inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy.9.2.5 Evaporate to dryness taking great care to minimizespattering, bake at not over 120C (248F) for 1 h, moistenwith hydrochloric acid (density 1.19 g/mL), evaporate andbake again. Take up filtration i
48、n 75 mL of hydrochloric acid(1 + 3). Heat to boiling, filter through an ashless filter paper,and wash the residue with 50 mL of hot hydrochloric acid(1 + 9) and then with hot water until the washings are free ofchlorides. Transfer the filter paper and residue to a weighedplatinum crucible, dry, and
49、ignite, at first slowly until thecarbon of the paper is completely consumed without inflaming,and finally at 1100 to 1200C for 1 h. Cool in a desiccator andweigh. Reignite to constant weight. Treat the SiO2thusobtained, which will contain small amounts of impurities, inthe crucible with 1 or 2 mL of water, 2 drops of H2SO4(1 + 1),and about 10 mL of HF, and evaporate cautiously to dryness.Finally, heat the small residue at 1050 to 1100C for 5 min,cool in a desiccator, and weigh. The difference between thisweight and the weight previously obtained represents theweight
