1、Designation: D1762 84 (Reapproved 2013)Standard Test Method forChemical Analysis of Wood Charcoal1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1762; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision.
2、 A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of moisture,volatile matter, and ash in charcoal made from wood. The testmethod is applica
3、ble to lumps and briquets and is designed forthe evaluation of charcoal quality. The test method employsapparatus that is found in most laboratories and is adapted toroutine analyses of a large number of samples.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associa
4、ted with its use. It 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.2.

Sample6.1 Sample SelectionThe sample shall be selected so as tobe representative of all of the material contained in a lot.Sample selection shall be carried out in accordance withPractices D346, D3176, and D3180.6.2 Sample PreparationSamples will normally be air-drycharcoal l
10、umps or briquets. Rainsoaked or wet samples shall bespread out to air-dry before carrying out the analysis. Forpurchase specifications, the moisture content of the charcoal, asreceived, shall be determined on samples ground to pass a No.20 (850-m) sieve, since excessive grinding will result in losso
11、f moisture due to the generation of heat. For laboratoryevaluation, moisture, ash, and volatile matter shall be deter-mined on a sample ground as follows:1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D07 on Woodand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D07.01 on Fundamental Te

The sample shall be pulverizedrapidly in a mill. Long grinding times shall be avoided becauseof generated heat which will cause l
16、oss of volatile material.Excessive grinding will produce a large amount of fineparticles smaller than a No. 100 (150-m) sieve. These fineparticles contribute to errors of being swept out of the crucibleduring the rapid evolution of gases in the determination ofvolatile matter. Particles that will be
