Summary of Test Method3.1 A carbon black sample is mixed with a white powder (zinc oxide) and a liquid vehicle (soybean oil epoxide) to produce ablack or gray p

6、aste. This paste is then spread to produce a surface suitable for measuring the reflectance of the mixture by meansof a photo-electric reflectance meter. The reflectance of the tested sample is then compared to the reflectance of the ITRB preparedin the same manner. The tint strength of the tested s

7、ample is expressed as units of the reflectance of the ITRB divided by thereflectance of the sample and multiplied by 100.100, when calibration and standardization in Section 8 is performed with theoriginal ITRB or multiplied by 101.34 when ITRB2 is used in the calibration and standardization step.4.

8、 Significance and Use4.1 For the broad range of commercial rubber grade carbon blacks, tint strength is highly dependent upon particle size. Tintstrength can be used as an indication of particle size; however, tint strength is also dependent on structure and aggregate sizedistribution. Therefore, di

9、fferences in tint strength within grades of carbon black may reflect differences other than particle size.NOTE 1This test method was developed primarily for the characterization of N100, N200, and N300 series carbon blacks.4.2 Tint strength values within the carbon black industry have been developed

10、 using a Hoover Muller apparatus which is usedto prepare carbon black-zinc oxide pastes.Anew mixing apparatus, SpeedMixer3 (DAC 150 FVZ), and a corresponding procedurehave been extensively studied within D24 and shown to provide equivalent tint strength for all carcass or soft blacks and most treadb

11、lacks with the exception of higher surface area N100 types and specialty blacks. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the user ofthis alternate apparatus to ensure their products will adequately disperse. Disputes arising between a user and producer should beresolved using the Hoover Muller appara
