Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the measurement, on a laboratory scale, of the con

3、tribution of asbestos fibers to the strength ofasbestos-cement products. The results obtained are used in the primary assessment of different fiber grades prior to their applicationon a larger scale.1.2 This test method covers the determination of the modulus of rupture (MR), adjusted to a dry densi

4、ty of 1.60 Mg/m3(MRA),of asbestos-cement test specimens that contain the asbestos fiber to be evaluated at a concentration of 10 mass %, whereby thedegree of fiberization of that fiber is specified in terms of specific surface area as determined by Test Method D2752. The relativereinforcing value of

5、 the fiber under test is established by comparison with MRAvalues obtained with a fiber of knowncharacteristics at a fiber concentration of 10 % and a dry density of 1.60 Mg/m3(1.60 g/cm3).NOTE 1The adjusted modulus of rupture (MRA) at any intermediate fiber concentration may be interpolated from re

6、sults suitably determined overa limited spanning range of fiber concentrations. For example, the MRAat 10 % fiber concentration may be graphically determined from data at 3 and17 %.1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for informatio

7、n only.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.1.4 WarningBreathing of asbestos dust is hazardous. Asbestos and asbestos products present demonstrated health risks forusers and for those with whom they come into co

8、ntact. In addition to other precautions, when working with asbestos-cementproducts, minimize the dust that results.

Terminology3.1 DefinitionsFor definitions of asbestos terms used in this test method, refer to Terminology D2946.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method covers the preparation and flexural tes

18、ting of asbestos-cement specimens consisting of disks, 107 mm indiameter, which are obtained by vacuum filtration of an aqueous slurry of asbestos fiber, cement, and silica of standardcomposition. The disks are compressed to a designated nominal pressure (Note 2), and cured under standard conditions

19、 prior totesting in flexure. The calculation of the modulus of rupture ( MR) and its adjustment to a common dry density of 1.6 Mg/m3(MRA), based on the flexural strength and the density of the specimens, is also described.NOTE 2The spacer ring may support part or all of this pressure unless the mix

20、being pressed is bulky enough to prevent full closure of the mold.4.2 The preparation of the test specimens and the determination of the flexural modulus of rupture includes the following steps:4.2.1 Treatment of the asbestos fiber including sampling, blending, and fiberizing in a suitable apparatus

21、,4.2.2 Dry blending of asbestos fiber, cement, and silica and the wet mixing of these materials using water saturated with limeand gypsum.4.2.3 Formation of disk-shaped filter cakes from the aqueous slurry in a cylindrical filter vessel and the pressing of those cakes,4.2.4 Curing of the pressed cak

22、es by storage under conditions of high humidity and autoclaving,4.2.5 Determination of the volume and density of the specimens based on dry mass, saturated mass, and immersed mass,4.2.6 Testing of the flexural strength of the cured specimens after drying, and4.2.7 Calculation of the flexural modulus

23、 of rutpure (MR) of the specimens and the modulus of rupture adjusted to a dry densityof 1.6 Mg/m3(MRA).5. Significance and Use5.1 This procedure facilitates the comparison of different types or grades of asbestos based on their contribution to the flexuralmodulus of rupture; that is, the reinforcin

24、g value, which is considered the most pertinent property for the manufacture ofasbestos-cement products.5.2 This test method is primarily intended for fiber grades used normally in asbestos-cement products (Group 6 to Group 4fibers). Longer fibers (Group 3) or shorter fibers (Group 7) may present di

25、fficulties during the preparation of the filter cake becauseof poor dispersion and uneven settling.56. Apparatus6.1 FiberizingOptimum fiberization in terms of reinforcing strength (based on measurement of specific surface area (asdetermined by Test Method D2752) varies with the type of asbestos fibe

26、r; for example, approximately 900 m2/kg for amosite, 1200to 1500 m2/kg for crocidolite and 1000 to 1800 m2/kg for chrysotile. It should be noted that optimum fiberization based on filtrationproperties may require different surface areas. It should also be noted that optimum fiberization in terms of

27、reinforcing strengthvaries with the fiberizing procedure. To produce the desired degree of fiberization, the following types of apparatus have beenfound suitable:6.1.1 Laboratory Fan Opener.6.1.2 Pallman Mill.6.1.3 Christie-Norris Mill.NOTE 3The choice of the fiberizing method and the degree of fibe

28、rization is dependent upon the type of fiber under test, the application for whichthe fiber is intended, and the specific purpose of the test program. Increasingly higher surface areas obtained by fiberization produce increasingly highermodulus of rupture values up to an observed optimum. Beyond tha

29、t point, due to the production of greater proportions of fines coinciding withincreasingly higher surface areas, modulus of rupture values may diminish.6.2 Dry and Wet Mixing:6.2.1 Wide-Mouth Plastic Containers, 100 mm in diameter, 200 mm high, with screw lid.6.2.2 Metal Mixing Rod, 10 mm in diamete

Fiber Treatment (Opening)9.1 FiberizingIf the surface area of the asbestos fiber to be tested is below those mentioned in 6.1, a f

Duringthe fiberizing process, the surface area of the asbestos fiber is increased and, depending upon the method and length of treatmentused, the abestos fiber is generally shortened. Therefore, it is recommended that in addition to the treatment method and the surfacearea, the fiber length, as determined by Test Method D2589, be recorded prior to and after the fib
