ASTM D4570-2002 Standard Test Method for Rubber Chemicals&8212 Determination of Particle Size of Sulfur by Sieving (Dry)《橡胶化学制品的标准试验方法 用筛分法(干法)测定硫的粒度》.pdf

1、Designation: D 4570 02Standard Test Method forRubber ChemicalsDetermination of Particle Size of Sulfurby Sieving (Dry)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4570; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the

2、year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the particle size measurement ofthe coarse fraction of ground sulfurs. It is limited

3、to measure-ment of particles greater than 45 m (No. 325 sieve). If thesulfur is very fine and the screens become plugged by thecaking of the sulfur, it may be necessary to use a wet sieveprocedure instead.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.3 This standard does not

4、purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use3.1 This test method is used to evaluate sulfur for suitabilityas a rubber vulcanizing agent. Sulfur particles must be smallenough to dissolve

6、 in rubber during cure to produce a uniformnetwork of cross-links. This test method is used as a qualitycontrol method to ensure that large particles are not present(and to determine if the sulfur follows a typical pattern for sizedistribution).4. Apparatus4.1 Standard Sieves, stainless steel, 203 m

7、m in diameterconforming to Specification E 11. The stainless steel cloth shallrange in mesh size from 45 to 250 m. The sieve set shouldinclude a lid and a bottom pan.4.2 Mechanical Sieve Shakers, such as a Tyler Ro-Tap4orequivalent unit.4.3 Balance, with a minimum capacity of 500 g sensitive to0.1 g

8、.4.4 Balance, with a minimum capacity of 150 g sensitive to0.001 g.4.5 Oven, circulating air type, controlled to 70 6 2C.5. Reagent5.1 Tri-calcium Phosphate, screened to a fineness of lessthan 45 m.6. Procedure6.1 Weigh each sieve to the nearest 0.1 g and assemble inorder of increasing mesh size fro

9、m bottom to top. Add a bottompan. Choice of sieves depends on the information desired.6.2 Into a beaker or suitable container, weigh precisely100.0 g of sulfur to the nearest 0.1 g. When the sulfur is veryfine, add 2.0 g of tri-calcium phosphate (see 5.1) and blendthoroughly using a spatula.6.3 Tran

10、sfer all the sulfur to the top sieve and add the lid.Fix the sieve vest firmly in the mechanical sieve shaker. Runthe unit for 10 min, stop, remove the sieves, and weigh eachsieve to the nearest 0.1 g. Return the sieves to the unit and runan additional 3 min. Reweigh each sieve again to the nearest0

11、.1 g. Repeat until the sieves reach constant mass.7. Calculation7.1 Determine the residue remaining on each sieve by massdifference. For higher precision, transfer the small residue fromthe coarser screen to a weighing dish and weigh to the nearest0.01 g.7.2 The percent residue on each screen is equ

12、al to theamount in grams on each screen.7.3 The percent residue passing through each screen isdetermined by accumulating the total percent material col-lected on that screen and the coarser screens used andsubtracting the total from 100.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D
