1、Designation: D351 14 An American National StandardStandard Classification forNatural Muscovite Block Mica and Thins Based on VisualQuality1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D351; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case
2、 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.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This c
3、lassification covers the determination of commer-cially available natural muscovite block mica and is intended tobe independent of the basic color of the mica or its source.1.2 Muscovite mica is characterized by having an opticalaxial angle between 50 and 75 (see Appendix X1); and has aweight loss w
4、hen heated for 5 min at 600C not exceeding0.2 % (based on the weight after drying at 120C).1.3 The visual system of classifying the quality of naturalmuscovite mica covered by this specification is based uponrelative amounts of visible foreign inclusions such as airbubbles, stains, and spots in comb
5、ination with relative amountsand types of waviness, as well as other physical properties. Inthis system, a perfectly clear, transparent, flat specimen of micais the visual standard of perfection. Increasing amounts ofvisual defects lower the visual quality, and a total of 13 levelsof visual quality
6、are covered by this standard. This method ofclassification, generally known as the Bengal India System, ispurely qualitative and is entirely dependent on personal opin-ion and judgment.1.4 The standards for visual quality classification that arecovered in this classification are the best commerciall
7、y avail-able concept of the various qualities and their relative posi-tions. Variations in the methods of using and applying thesestandards from those herein defined may be specified by thepurchaser, or defined by agreement between the supplier andthe purchaser.1.5 Standard size classifications are
8、defined, based uponavailable usable rectangular areas and the minimum dimen-sions of the rectangles that the pieces will yield. Precautions tobe taken in making thickness measurements are also described.1.6 This standard covers the following two definite forms ofcommercial preparation:1.6.1 Form 1Fu
9、ll-trimmed natural block mica, 0.007 in.(0.178 mm) minimum thickness.1.6.2 Form 2Partially-trimmed natural block mica, 0.007in. minimum thickness.1.7 The basic color of mica, such as white, ruby, light green,dark green, brownish green, and rum, as well as other colors,and the method of controlling t
10、he color and other problemsassociated with the basic color, are not a part of this classifi-cation.1.8 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.

Grading for Size5.1 Full-TrimmedAll full-trimmed mica blocks and thinsshall be fully trimmed to remove all cracks,
24、 holes, reeves, andcross-grains according to the quality desired.As far as possible,all marginal cracks should be removed by recutting. Theaverage area of the pieces for Grade 4 and larger shall be notmore than 1.54 times the average area of the largest usablerectangles. This would constitute a mini
25、mum yield of 65 %.For Grades 5 and smaller, the average area of the pieces shallbe not more than two times the average area of the largestusable rectangles. This would constitute a yield of 50 %.5.2 Half-TrimmedFor half-trimmed mica, follow the grad-ing described in 5.1 for trimmed sides with no cra
26、cks extendingfrom the trimmed sides, except for sizes 6 and 512 on whichonly side must be trimmed free of cracks. On the untrimmedsides, no defects of the designated quality are acceptable withinthe minimum rectangle of the designated grade.5.3 Natural Block and ThinsNatural block and thins,muscovit
27、e mica shall be graded for size according to the areaof the rectangle (maximum rectangle for full-trimmed, maxi-mum rectangle of designated quality for half-trimmed) havingat least the minimum dimension of one side for the specifiedgrade. The area within such a rectangle shall meet therequirements o
28、f the quality specified by the purchaser as listedin Table 1.5.4 Method of Grading for SizeThe StandardASTM Chartshown in Fig. 1 shall be used for grading natural block andthins, muscovite mica according to size. In grading naturalblock mica and thins for size, all dimensions apply to thesmaller sur
29、face measured from the foot of the bevel-trimmededge. The specimen to be graded shall be laid upon the chart sothat it covers point O and has its maximum and minimumdimensions extending along and covering lines OA and OB,respectively. The specimen shall be shifted until the usable areacompletely cov
30、ers the largest rectangle, determined by adiagonal extending from point O to or beyond a point on anyof the curves. The number of the curve at the greatest distancefrom O cut by the diagonal of the rectangle designates thegrade of the specimen.6. Thickness of Block Mica6.1 Measure the thickness with
31、 a micrometer as specified inTest Methods D374. In determining thickness of mica thatmust be kept within small permissible variations, or where twoor more specimens are to be measured at once, use Method ATABLE 1 ASTM Grade Sizes of Muscovite Uncut Mica Block andThinsASTMGradeSizesArea ofMinimumRect

33、 6.534 19D351 142of Test Methods D374. Where the maximum accuracy is notrequired, Method B may be used.6.2 Because of the abrasive nature of mica, test the microm-eter frequently for conformity to the requirements specified inTest Methods D374. Clean the anvil and spindle as frequentlyas necessary t
34、o prevent the accumulation of mica dust on thesurfaces and to preserve the accuracy of the measurements. Toclean, close the micrometer lightly on a clean sheet of bondpaper and move the paper between the surfaces.6.3 Be careful, when moving from one measurement loca-tion to another, to maintain the
35、surfaces of the anvil and spindleparallel to the surfaces of the specimen at all times, so as toavoid scratching the mica and accumulating mica dust underthe micrometer surfaces, thereby causing false readings.7. Classification of Visual Quality of Block Mica7.1 The classification of the visual qual
36、ity of muscoviteblocks and thins shall fall into the following thirteen catego-ries:7.1.1 V-1 Clear7.1.2 V-2 Clear and Slightly Stained7.1.3 V-3 Fair Stained7.1.4 V-4 Good Stained7.1.5 V-5 Stained A Quality7.1.6 V-5.1 Stained A1 Quality7.1.7 V-6 Stained B Quality7.1.8 V-7 Heavy Stained7.1.9 V-8 Dens
