30、. Summary of Test Method12.1 The specific gravity balance is essentially an analyticalbalance which uses a plummet to determine the weight of aliquid by displacement.The plummet is calibrated in a standardliquid, usually reagent water, before the determination is made.Any oil present in the sample w
31、ill interfere with this determi-nation; therefore, only freshly filtered samples should be used.13. Apparatus13.1 Specific Gravity BalanceAWestphal-type balance orany of several accurate specific gravity balances may be used.14. Procedure14.1 Locate the specific gravity balance in a draft-freeenclos
32、ure. Clean the plummet by immersion in distilled waterfollowed by acetone. Dry with air or a lint-free tissue. Calibratethe plummet by determining its difference in weight in air andin reagent water at 15.6 6 1C (60 6 1.8F); record thisdisplacement as d1.14.2 Immerse the plummet in the sample, which
33、 has astabilized temperature of 15.6 6 1C (60 6 1.8F). Makecertain that the plummet does not touch the bottom or the sidesof the container. The liquid displacement, d2, is the differencebetween the weight necessary to counterpoise the dry plummetin air and that necessary when the plummet is immersed

Summary of Test Method17.1 The sample of mud or sludge is thoroug
38、hly stirred andpoured into a wide-mouth Erlenmeyer flask until it is some-what more than level full, the excess being struck off with aspatula blade. The specific gravity is calculated from thisweight and the previously determined weight of water requiredto fill the flask completely.17.2 If the samp
39、le is of a plastic solid consistency, the flaskis partly filled with the sample and weighed. Water is thenadded to fill the flask completely, and the total weight is taken.The specific gravity is calculated from the weight of thevolume of water displaced by the sample.18. Procedure18.1 Clean, dry, a
40、nd weigh the Erlenmeyer flask to thenearest 0.1 g, and record this weight as F.18.2 Fill the flask with reagent water or tap water. Both flaskand water shall be at temperature equilibrium. Weigh the filledflask and record this weight as W. Empty and dry the flask.18.3 If the sample flows readily, fi
41、ll the flask completelywith the sample, leveling the upper surface with a flat-bladedspatula held at an angle of 45 with the rim of the flask. Weigh,and record this weight as S.18.4 Mix the sample thoroughly by stirring, but do notshake. If the sample does not flow readily, add sufficientsample to a
42、pproximately half fill the flask, without exertingpressure, and weigh. Record the weight of the flask and sampleas R. Fill the flask containing the sample completely withreagent water or tap water, whichever was used in accordancewith 18.2, taking care to remove all entrained air bubbles, andweigh a
