2、e case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This

3、test method covers the determination of pitchdensity by helium pycnometer. It is applicable at a range ofroom temperatures of 15 to 35C.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to ad

Significance and Use5.1 This test method is useful in characterizing pitches asone element in establishing uniformity of shipments andsources of supply. With this

8、method, the density is determinedto two decimal places, which is sufficient for most applications.If a more precise measurement is required (three decimalplaces), use Test Methods D 2320 or D71.6.

Calibration of Helium Pycnometer10.1 Calibrate daily or before using, following instrumentmanufacturers instructions.11. Procedure11.1 Place 10 to 150 g (80 to 90 % of the maxi

16、mum capacityof the particular holder being used) of the prepared crushed andsized fraction into the required specimen holder provided withthe instrument. Weigh to the nearest milligram.11.2 Determine volume of pitch following manufacturersinstructions.11.3 Weigh specimen container after determinatio

17、n; if thisweight is lower than the initial weight, the specimen has lostmoisture or volatiles during the density determination. Use thelower weight in determining the density. Also, if the specimenappears to have free moisture, dry the specimen as specified in8.1, and repeat the density determinatio

18、n.11.4 Record the room temperature during the density deter-mination.12. Calculation12.1 The procedure described in this test method determinesthe volume of a given mass of pitch at the ambient temperature(room temperature) of the helium pycnometer. Since thevolume of a given mass of pitch is temper

19、ature-dependent, thedensity of the given specimen will vary with the ambienttemperature. The variation of pitch volume with temperaturehas been previously established (Test Method D 2962 and theliterature4), and the following calculation corrects all densitymeasurements to 25C.12.2 The density of pi

20、tch, corrected to 25C, is given by thegeneral formula:d25C5WVt1 6 0.00047 Dt(2)where:W = specimen mass, g,Vt= volume of specimen, cm3, at measurement tem-perature,Dt = difference between 25C and the measurementtemperature, andd25C= pitch density at 25C, g/cm3.The factor 0.00047/C is obtained from th

Precision and Bias514.1 PrecisionThe following criteria shall be used for theacceptability of results (95 % probability):14.1.1 RepeatabilityDuplicate values by the same opera-tor shall not be considered suspect unless they differ by morethan 0.02.14.1.2 ReproducibilityThe values reported

24、 by each of twolaboratories, representing the arithmetic average of duplicatedeterminations, shall not be considered suspect unless thereported values differ by more than 0.03.14.2 BiasDuring the interlaboratory study to determinethe precision of this test method, the density was also deter-mined by

25、 Test Method D 2320 (water pycnometer). It wasfound that the density determined by helium pycnometer washigher than that determined by water pycnometer by anaverage value of 0.004.15.
