1、Designation: C886 98 (Reapproved 2010)1An American National StandardStandard Test Method forScleroscope Hardness Testing of Carbon and GraphiteMaterials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C886; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption o

2、r, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1NOTEUpdated units of measurement throughout standard editorially in May 2010.1. Scope1.1

3、This test method covers the apparatus and procedure fordetermining the hardness of carbon and graphite materialsusing the Model C-2 scleroscope2with the hammer calibratedfor use on carbon and graphite materials with particles smallerthan 0.8 mm.31.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded a

4、sstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the

5、 applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

6、ctrical Machines3. Summary of Test Method3.1 The specimen is held in position, and the height ofrebound of a diamond-tipped hammer is observed and recordedas the hardness number.4. Significance and Use4.1 The scleroscope is a rebound hardness tester with a scaledivided into 140 equal parts. For carb

7、on and graphite materials,there is no established correlation between the Scleroscopehardness scale and other hardness scales. The test is useful inthe evaluation and the manufacturing control of carbon andgraphite materials.5. Interferences5.1 Lack of alignment of the instrument, as specified inSec

8、tion 10, will cause low readings.5.2 The specimen must be held firmly in position and musthave adequate support from the anvil on which the samplerests. Neglect of alignment, positioning, or support will resultin low readings.5.3 Rough surface finish, above 3175-nm AA, may causelow readings.5.4 Inde

9、ntations that are superimposed or spaced too closelytogether (approximately 3 mm) will cause incorrect readings.6. Apparatus6.1 Table, or equivalent, firm, for support.6.2 Scleroscope, Model C-2, equipped with a hammercalibrated by the manufacturer for use on carbon and graphitematerials.1This test

Test Specimen7.1 The specimen may be of any convenient size, but testsurfaces smaller than 5 by

15、5 mm are not recommended.7.2 The recommended specimen shall have a minimumthickness of 5 mm.7.3 The test surface shall not exceed 3175-nmAAin surfacefinish.7.4 The test surface-to-opposite side parallelism shall bewithin 1 %. For all specimens, the test surfaces must bemaintained normal to the axis

16、of the scleroscope tube.8. Calibration and Standardization8.1 Check the calibration of the scleroscope with carbon testblocks obtained from the instrument manufacturer.8.2 Make a series of tests on carbon test blocks that coverthe range of hardness to be tested.8.3 Make at least five tests on each c

17、arbon test block. Do notmake any tests closer than 6 mm from the sides of the testblocks.8.4 Consider the instrument calibrated if 90 % of the read-ings deviate no more than 64%,or63 points, whichever islarger, from the mean of the hardness numbers stamped on thecarbon test blocks.9. Conditioning9.1

18、 Allow the specimen to reach equilibrium with roomtemperature air, and test under the same conditions in accor-dance with Specification E171.9.2 Keep specimens free of contamination.10. Procedure10.1 Place the instrument on a firm support.10.2 Level the instrument using the plumb bob or bubblelevel.

19、10.3 Check the calibration in accordance with Section 8.10.4 Place the specimen on the anvil.10.5 Be certain that the hammer is in the “UP (locked)position.10.6 Lower the tube against the specimen, and hold firmly.10.7 Release the hammer and read the height of the re-bound.10.8 Return the hammer to

20、the “UP (locked) position.10.9 Repeat 10.6 through 10.8 four or more times, using adifferent impact point each time in accordance with 8.4.10.10 Record the average reading to the nearest wholenumber.10.11 A single reading substantially different from the othershall be reported, but not included in t

21、he average or standarddeviation calculations.11.
