Summary of Test Method3.1 A carbon black sample is mixed with a white powder(zi

7、nc oxide) and a liquid vehicle (epoxidized soybean oil, ESO)to produce a black or gray paste. This paste is then spread toproduce a surface suitable for measuring the reflectance of themixture by means of a photo-electric reflectance meter. Thereflectance of the tested sample is then compared to the

8、reflectance of the ITRB prepared in the same manner. The tintstrength of the tested sample is expressed as units of thereflectance of the ITRB divided by the reflectance of thesample and multiplied by 100.3.2 Correction Factor:3.2.1 When ITRB-2, Paraplex G-62 (made before June2012) and ZnO lot#8 are

9、 used, apply a correction factor of1.0134 for the calibration and standardization in Section 8.3.2.2 There should be no correction applied when ITRB isused with Paraplex G-62 and ZnO Lot#8 or earlier, that is, thecorrection factor is “1”.3.2.3 There should be no correction applied in the calcula-tio

10、n in Section 10 when using the currently available tint rawmaterials (see Section 6) for pastes prepared with either ITRBor ITRB2, that is, the correction factor is “1”.34. Significance and Use4.1 For the broad range of commercial rubber grade carbonblacks, tint strength is highly dependent upon par

11、ticle size. Tintstrength can be used as an indication of particle size; however,tint strength is also dependent on structure and aggregate size1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D24 on CarbonBlack and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D24.21 on Carbon BlackSurfa

For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information, refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.3In 2013 issues were reported when using Paraplex G-62 purchased after June2012 and ZnO Lot#10. An ASTM task group investigated the issues and found thefollowing raw m

14、aterials acceptable for Tint testing:1) ESO: Paraplex G-62 purchased before June 2012 or currently availableGreenChem Greenflex 7170, lot 590911X24, and2) zinc oxide Lot#8 or earlier, and currently available ZnO lot#11.It is highly recommended to only use these raw materials identified as acceptable

15、as other sources may lead to unacceptable differences in the test results. The tint taskgroup has determined that Paraplex G-62 with lot numbers that begin with the digit5 and zinc oxide lots 9 and 10 are suspect and may not give acceptable results.When using the new raw materials for tint testing s

16、ome differences may beobserved with various grades of carbon black compared with historical data. For thisreason it is the responsibility of the manufacturer to identify any such differences,and if necessary, revise any specifications between producer and user.Copyright ASTM International, 100 Barr

20、ensively studied within D24and shown to provide equivalent tint strength for all carcass orsoft blacks and most tread blacks with the exception of highersurface area N100 types and specialty blacks. Therefore, it isthe responsibility of the user of this alternate apparatus toensure their products wi
