Sampling7.1 Samples shall be taken in accordance with PracticesD1799 and D1900.8. Calibration and Standardization8.1 Absorptometer:8.1.1 ModelThree different types of absorptom

19、eters are inuse: (1) early models based on springs and mechanical indica-tion of torque (Type A and B), (2) second generation absorp-tometers equipped with load cells and digital torque display(Type E7), and (3) current model absorptometers which aredesigned with a torque measuring system that inclu

20、des amicro-computer and software to continuously record torqueand oil volume with time (Types H and C and modified TypeE7). Types A, B, and E7are designed to stop mixing at apredetermined, fixed torque level, which is the recommendedprocedure for measuring hard or tread blacks (calibrationProcedureA

21、). The computer controlled models (Types H and Cand modified Type E7) are required for running calibrationProcedure B, the recommended torque curve analysis for thedetermination of the end-point of soft or carcass blacks. TheType H and C and modified Type E7absorptometers can alsoprovide an end-poin

22、t at a fixed or predetermined torque levelsuch that these types of absorptometers are well-suited formeasuring OAN of both hard and soft carbon blacks. Severalcomponents influence the calibration: the dynamometer torquespring or the load cell, the torque limit switch or the indicatorset point, the d

23、amper (oil damper or electronic damping), andthe mixing head consisting of two counter rotating blades anda mixing bowl. It is necessary that all of these components arein good condition and are properly adjusted to achieve accept-able calibration.8.1.2 Mixing BowlTypically the absorptometer is deli

24、v-ered with either a surface-treated stainless steel or anodizedaluminum mixing bowl. These bowls are considered accept-able provided they give the correct reading for the appropriateSRB reference standards. The surface finish of the mixerchamber is critical for maintaining proper calibration, and t

25、hebowl should not be modified to achieve calibration.NOTE 2Stainless steel chambers have been found satisfactory for thetest when they are manufactured to a roughness 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 l

26、ess than 1.5 m (60in.). Stainless steel bowls purchased with an absorptometer have beenpre-polished for 16 h to minimize bowl surface changes affectingcalibration during their initial use. It is recommended that new replace-ment stainless steel bowls should also be pre-polished in the same manner(se

27、e 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, C, and H) to 125 r/min. Due to a gear, one blade spinsat 125 r/min, the other blade at 250 r/min.8.2.2 Constant-Rate BuretThe delivery rate of the bure

28、t 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 recommendedthat the torque spring is adjusted so that the SRB F standardwill develop a maximum torque between 70 % and full-scaledeflect

29、ion. This is achieved by selecting the appropriate springstrength and adjusting the spring tension in accordance with theinstructions of the manufacturer.NOTE 3The absorptometers Type E, C, and H are calibrated by themanufacturer to give a direct reading of torque in mNm; this calibrationshould not

30、be modified in order to achieve a desired level of torque. Ifcalibration is necessary, refer to the instrument manufacturers recommen-dations. The instrument torque calibration should not be confused with thetorque limit switch described in 8.2.5.8.2.4 DamperFor the Type A absorptometer, it is recom

31、-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 accordingly. The Type Eabsorptometer has an electronic damping option and Types Cand H have appropriate software damping. Make sure thatthes

32、e damping 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 the TLS, also called indicatorset-point, has to be selected using one of the following threeprocedures:8.2.5.1 Procedure A: End-P

33、oint at Fixed Torque LevelThis “classical” method is well suited for most hard or treadblacks but may lead to problems when low-torque carcassblacks are to be tested; proceed to Procedure B for low-torquecarbon blacks. For TypeA, B, and E absorptometers, adjust theTLS or the indicator set point in s

34、uch way that the current SRBF standard gives the correct target value within the limits asdefined in Guide D4821.

37、chnical committee,1which you may attend.7Type E absorptometers can be modified with additional hardware and micro-computer system.D2414 112dedicated to testing tread blacks only, there is no advantage tosetting the TLS based on the SRB F standard; for theseabsorptometers, set theTLS to 3500 mNm for

38、DBPoil, or 4000mNm for 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 record thetorque curve using a chart-re

39、corder 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.8.2.5.3 Procedure C: End-Point at a Fixed, But ReducedTorque LevelRequires us

SeeTest Method D2414 00.8.3 Normalization: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 establish the average measured value. Addi-tional values a

41、re added periodically, typically on a weeklybasis. The rolling average of the measured values is computedfrom the latest four values.NOTE 4When only tread- or carcass-type carbon blacks are to betested, the calibration can be limited to either the three tread- (A, B, C) orthe three carcass-type (D,

42、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 values of all subsequent samples asfollows:Normali

43、zed value 5 measured value 3 slope! 1 yintercept (1)8.3.5 For normalized values of the SRBs that are consis-tently outside the x-chart limits listed in Guide D4821, the testapparatus should be recalibrated in accordance with 8.2.8.3.6 When any absorptometer or calibration changes occur,a new calibra

44、tion 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.

45、t 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, SRB D-7 and D-8 40All others 209.3 It is recommende

46、d 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 5 and Note 6 while running the samples.NOTE 5If the absorptometer has remained idl

47、e 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 and the start of another.NOTE 6It is importan

48、t 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 testvariability.NOTE 7In the event that an en

49、dpoint 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 seconds 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
