6、 and Bias3. Summary of Test Method3.1 In this test method, oil is added by means of aconstant-rate buret to a sample of carbon black in the mixerchamber of an absorptometer. As the sample absorbs the oil,the mixture changes from a free-flowing state to one of asemiplastic agglomeration, with an acco
7、mpanying increase inviscosity. This increased viscosity is transmitted to the torque-sensing system of the absorptometer. When the viscosity of themixture reaches a predetermined torque level, the absorptom-eter and buret will shut off simultaneously. The volume of oiladded is read from the direct-r
8、eading buret. The volume of oilper unit mass of carbon black is the oil absorption number.3.2 Either DBP or paraffin oil is acceptable for use withstandard pelleted grades including N-series carbon blacksfound in Classification D 1765. OAN testing using paraffin oilon some specialty blacks and powde
9、r blacks may result inunacceptable differences as compared to OAN testing usingDBP oil. While studies have shown either oil to exhibitcomparable precision, paraffin oil offers the advantage of beingnon-hazardous; even FDA-approved grades are available. Foreither oil, Sections 8-11 (Calibration, Proc
10、edure, Calculation,and Report) are to be consistent with the oil selected for use.Referee testing between suppliers and users should use DBPoiluntil such time that precision data are available for paraffin oil.4.

18、 ASTM D24 Standard Reference Blacks, SRB-6.67. Sampling7.1 Samples shall be taken in accordance with PracticesD 1799 and D 1900.8. Calibration and Standardization8.1 Absorptometer:8.1.1 ModelThree different types of absorptometers are inuse: 1) early models based on springs and mechanical indica-tio
19、n of torque (Type A and B), 2) second generation absorp-tometers equipped with load cells and digital torque display(Type E), and 3) current model absorptometers controlled viamicrocomputer software (Type H) and Type E absorptometerswhich utilize add-on data acquisition and control systems.Several c
20、omponents influence the calibration: the dynamom-eter torque spring or the load cell, the torque limit switch or theindicator set-point, the damper (oil damper or electronicdamping), and the mixing head consisting of two counter-rotating blades and a mixing bowl. It is necessary that all ofthese com
21、ponents are in good condition and are properlyadjusted to achieve acceptable calibration.8.1.2 Mixing BowlTypically the absorptometer is deliv-ered with either a surface-treated stainless steel or anodizedaluminum mixing bowl. These bowls are considered accept-able provided they give the correct rea
22、ding for the appropriateSRB reference standards. The surface finish of the mixerchamber is critical for maintaining proper calibration, and thebowl should not be modified to achieve calibration.NOTE 2Stainless steel chambers have been found satisfactory for thetest when they are manufactured to a ro
23、ughness value (Ra) of 2.5 60.4 m (100 6 15 in.) based upon 8 measurements. No single measure-ment should be greater than 3.6 m (140 in.) or less than 1.5 m (60in.). Stainless steel bowls purchased with an absorptometer have beenpre-polished for 16 h to minimize bowl surface changes affectingcalibrat
24、ion during their initial use. It is recommended that new replace-ment stainless steel bowls should also be pre-polished in the same manner(see Annex A3).8.2 Calibration:8.2.1 Rotor BladesThe speed of the motor driving therotor blades is either fixed (Type A and B) or has to be set(Type E and H) to 1
25、25 r/min. Due to a gear, one blade spins at125 r/min, the other blade at 250 r/min.8.2.2 Constant-Rate BuretThe delivery rate of the buret isto be 4 cm3/min. SeeAnnexA1 for detailed instructions on theprocedure for calibration check of the constant-rate buret.8.2.3 Spring Tension (Type A and B)It is
26、 recommendedthat the torque spring is adjusted so that the SRB F standardwill develop a maximum torque between 70 % and full-scaledeflection. This is achieved by selecting the appropriate springstrength and adjusting the spring tension in accordance with theinstructions of the manufacturer.NOTE 3The
27、 absorptometers Type E and H are calibrated by themanufacturer to give a direct reading of torque in mNm; this calibrationshould not be modified in order to achieve a desired level of torque. Ifcalibration is necessary, refer to the instrument manufacturers recommen-dations. The instrument torque ca
28、libration should not be confused with thetorque limit switch described in 8.2.5.8.2.4 DamperFor the Type A absorptometer, it is recom-mended to keep the valve of the oil damper fully closed. TheType B absorptometer shall provide a full-scale recovery of 36 0.5 s; the valve has to be adjusted accordi
29、ngly. The Type Eabsorptometer has an electronic damping option and Type Hhas an appropriate software damping. Make sure that thesedamping options are activated.8.2.5 Torque Limit Switch (TLS) or the Indicator SetPointIf the end-point of the test is determined by a fixedtorque limit, the setting of t
30、he TLS, also called indicatorset-point, has to be selected using one of the following threeprocedures:8.2.5.1 Procedure A: End-Point at Fixed Torque LevelThis “classical” method is well suited for hard or tread blacksbut often leads to problems when low-torque carcass blacks areto be tested. For Typ
31、e A and B absorptometers, adjust the TLSor the indicator set point in such way that the current SRB Fstandard gives the correct target values within the limits asdefined in Guide D 4821. For Type E absorptometers dedicatedto testing carcass blacks only, set the TLS in such a way thatthe current SRB
32、F standard gives the correct target valueswithin the limits as defined in Guide D 4821. For Type E andH absorptometers dedicated to testing tread blacks only, thereis no advantage to setting the TLS with current SRB Fstandard; for these absorptometers set the TLS between 3000and 4000 mNm (preferred
33、TLS is 3500 mNm when using DBPoil, or 4000 mNm if using paraffin oil).8.2.5.2 Procedure B: End-Point at 70 % of the MaximumTorqueCertain carcass blacks and thermal blacks may fail togive an end-point due to insufficient torque level. Therefore,the preferred method for testing soft blacks is to recor
34、d thetorque curve using a chart-recorder or a data acquisition systemand to read the end-point at 70 % of the maximum of the torqueachieved. Set the TLS or the indicator set point to full scale inorder to disable the automatic shut-off of the absorptometer.5Reagent Chemicals, American Chemical Socie

38、meters dedicated to testing treadblacks only, or for Type E and H absorptometers in which procedure A isused for testing tread blacks and procedure B is used for testing carcassblacks, there is no advantage to setting the TLS with the current SRB Fstandard; for these absorptometers set the TLS betwe
39、en 3000 and 4000mNm (preferred TLS is 3500 mNm when using DBP oil, or 4000 mNm ifusing paraffin oil).8.3 Standardization:8.3.1 Physically calibrate the test apparatus including TLSadjustment using the instructions in 8.2.8.3.2 Test the sixASTM Standard Reference Blacks (SRBs)in duplicate to establis
40、h the average measured value. Addi-tional values are added periodically, typically on a weeklybasis. The rolling average of the measured values is computedfrom the latest four values.NOTE 5When only tread- or carcass-type carbon blacks are to betested, the calibration can be limited to either the th
41、ree tread- (A, B, C) orthe three carcass-type (D, E, F) carbon black standards.8.3.3 Perform a regression analysis using the standard valueof the standard (y value) and the rolling average measuredvalue (x value). Separate carcass and tread calibration curvesshould be maintained.8.3.4 Normalize the
42、values of all subsequent samples asfollows:Normalized value 5 measured value 3 slope! 1 yintercept (1)8.3.5 For measured values on the SRBs that are consistentlyoutside the expected variability listed in Guide D 4821, the testapparatus should be recalibrated in accordance with 8.2.8.3.6 When any abs
43、orptometer or calibration changes occur,a new calibration curve must be initiated as described in 8.3.2.8.3.7 In most instances, if proper calibration cannot beachieved by following 8.2 or 8.3.2-8.3.4, it will be necessary toreplace the mixer chamber with one of proper surface finish.9. Procedure9.1
44、 Dry an adequate sample for1hinthespecified oven setat 125C. Prior to testing, cool the sample in a desiccator for aminimum of 30 min.9.2 Weigh the sample to the nearest 0.01 g. The recom-mended masses are as follows:Carbon Black Mass, gN630, N642, and N700 series, except N765 25N800 and N900 series
45、, SRB D-7 40All others 209.3 It is recommended that a testing temperature of 23 65C be maintained, as measured by a thermocouple in themixing bowl. If a temperature controllable mixing bowl is notavailable, keep the bowl temperature below 30C and complywith Note 6 and Note 7 while running the sample
46、s.NOTE 6If the absorptometer has remained idle for more than 15 minand a temperature controllable bowl is not being used, a 10-min warm-upsample must be run before beginning a test. It is important that the mixerchamber temperature be kept uniform. Preferably, allow 5 min betweenthe end of one test
47、and the start of another.NOTE 7It is important that the temperature of the bowl be the samefor machine calibration as for oil absorption testing. ASTM task groupwork has shown that an increase in bowl temperature can cause highervalues that increased variability in bowl temperatures cause increased
48、testvariability.NOTE 8In the event that an endpoint is not obtained (maximumtorque TLS) when using an absorptometer with a fixed TLS such asType B or E, it is acceptable to mill pelleted carbon blacks using a coarsegrinder such as a coffee mill. The carbon black should be milled for onlya few second
49、s to allow sufficient grind time to change the pellets topowder form. High-speed micronizing mills and air-jet mills are notacceptable, as they can reduce the carbon black structure.9.4 Transfer the sample to the absorptometer mixer chamberand replace the chamber cover. For Type H, close the safetydoor surrounding the mixing chamber.9.5 Position the buret delivery tube over the hole in themixer chamber cover, and for Types A, B, or E set the buretdigital counter to zero (Type H has automatic reset).
