3、stability of calcinedcoke for the manufacture of carbon products used in thesmelting of aluminum. Calcined coke with poor mechanicalstrength may become degraded during mixing. Poor grainstability will affect the grain size and may result in poor qualityof baked blocks.1.2 The values stated in accept

Summary of Test Method4.1 A representative sample of calcined petroleum coke isdried and screened toa4to8mmfraction. The result

8、antsample is weighed so that two separate portions of 100.0 6 0.5g mass are obtained. The samples are place into the laboratorymill and ground for a specified period of time. After grindingthe sample is screened and the mass of the +4 mm material isdetermined. The grain stability is the percent of t

Significance and Use5.1 The grain stability of calcined petroleum coke deter-mines the resistance to breakdown of +4 mm particles used inthe manufacture of carbon anodes for use in the reductionprocess of aluminum.5.2 Cokes have to be relatively ea

The main features of t

15、he mill are shown in Figs.1-5.7.4.1 The mill and drive motor are mounted on a commonbase plate. The grinding vessels are installed in the body of themill, which is supported by four soft, flat springs. The springsuspension system is designed to allow the machine to beoperated without any fastenings

16、or anchorage. The grindingvessels are secured by adjustable straps which have a quick-release catch. The oscillator is supported on a bearing, fitted tothe body of the mill, and is driven by the motor by way of aspecial clutch and a hollow flexible shaft.7.4.2 The peak-to-peak amplitude of the vibra

17、tion shall be 46 0.5 mm. A reference disc is fitted to the front of the machineto measure the amplitude of vibration.7.4.3 The motor shall be capable of 1450 to 1470 rpm. Themotor may be set up for 50 Hz rather than 60 Hz power. Atachometer can be used to verify that the motor is the specifiedrpm. T

18、he motor speed can be regulated with a dc speedcontroller to adjust it to the specified rpm. The bearing housingis rigidly connected to the bearings. The shaft rotates inside thebearings with two steel imbalance discs attached and isconnected to the motor by way of the clutch. The imbalancediscs are

19、 shown in Fig. 4.7.4.4 The imbalance discs rotate eccentrically and the entireoscillating mass follows with a phase lag of 180, supported bythe springs. Each grinding vessel (see Fig. 5) has a total volumeof 1 L and an effective volume of 0.3 L. It is closed by a lidwith a rubber sealing ring. The l

20、id is held in place by a clampfitted with a wing nut.4The sole source of supply of the vibration mill is Siebtechnik GmbH, P.O.Box/Postfach 10 17 51, D-25417 MUELHEIM an der RUHR, Germany. If you areaware of alternative suppliers, please provide this information to ASTM Interna-tional Headquarters.
