Summary of Test Method3.1 In this test method, DBP is added by means of
6、a constant-rate buret to a sample of silica in the mixer chamber of anabsorptometer. As the sample absorbs the DBP, the mixture changes from a free-flowing state to one of a semiplasticagglomeration, with an accompanying increase in viscosity. This increased viscosity is transmitted to the torque-se
7、nsing systemof the absorptometer. The test is stopped when a predetermined torque level has been reached. Preferably the torque versus volumeof DBP is recorded by a penwriter or by a data acquisition system allowing a reliable determination of the endpoint. The volumeof DBP per unit mass of silica i

Reagents and Standards6.1 n-Dibutyl Phthalate,5having a density of 1.042 to 1.047 mg/m3(g/cm3) at 25C.6.2 Silica, commercial gr
16、ade with a nitrogen surface area of 175 6 10 m2/g.7. Sampling7.1 Samples shall be taken in accordance with Practices D1799 and D1900.8. Calibration8.1 Absorptometer6 The absorptometer is composed of components that influence calibration: the dynamometer torque springor the load cell, the torque-limi
17、t or the indicator set point, the oil damper (absorptometers Type E and Type H are equipped withelectronic damping), and the mixer-measuring head.7It is necessary that each of the components be in good condition or properadjustment to achieve acceptable calibration.NOTE 1Stainless steel mixing chamb
18、ers8have been found satisfactory for this test when they are manufactured to a roughness average (Ra) of 2.56 0.4 m (100 6 15 in.) based upon eight measurements. No single measurement should be greater than 3.6 m (140 in.) or less than 1.5 m (60 in.).Stainless steel bowls purchased with an absorptom
19、eter have been pre-polished for 16 h to minimize bowl surface changes affecting calibration during theirinitial use. It is recommended that new replacement stainless steel bowls should also be pre-polished to minimize the bowl surface effects on calibration(see Annex A1).8.1.1 The torque indicator i
20、s the primary component used to correct calibration. The load cell tension is adjusted by varying thealarm shut-off set point. Proper adjustment on the torque indicator should provide repeatable values for a silica sample dedicatedto internal reference.8.1.2 The maximum torque span is set at 10 000
21、mNm (10 000 units) torque value. The torque-limit alarm is initially set at 5000mNm (5000 units), but for testing silicas it will be necessary to adjust this setting to a lower value in order to obtain reproducibleresults. Use an internal silica sample with a nitrogen surface area of 175 6 10 m2/g t
22、o set the torque limit alarm which shouldcorrespond to approximately 70 % of the maximum torque developed during the test. After calibration, this setting should not bechanged.NOTE 2It is generally recommended to use the absorptometer in conjunction with a penwriter or preferably with a data acquisi
23、tion system (see 9.9for further details).8.1.3 All digital signals are preset at 3 s damping for the torque sensing system.8.1.4 Properly maintain the surface finish of the mixing chamber. If a new mixer chamber is installed, frequently monitor theinstrument for any drift in calibration.8.2 Constant
24、-Rate Buret:8.2.1 The delivery rate of the buret is to be 4 cm3/min. See Annex A1 for detailed instructions on the procedure for calibrationcheck of the constant-rate buret.9. Procedure9.1 Pass a suitable amount of the sample through Sieve No. 35 (500 m), using a brush in order to deglomerate larger
25、 particles.Use2gofthesieved material to test the moisture content (see 9.2).9.2 Weigh 12.5 g of the sample to the nearest 0.01 g.NOTE 3For silicas with an extraordinary high pour density it may be necessary to increase the sample mass used for the test. This modification hasto be mentioned in the te
26、st report.9.3 It is recommended that a testing temperature of 23 6 5C be maintained, as measured by a thermocouple in the mixing bowl.If a temperature controllable mixing bowl is not available, keep the bowl temperature below 30C and comply with Note 4 whilerunning the samples.NOTE 4If the absorptom
27、eter has remained idle for more than 15 min and a temperature controllable bowl is not being used, a 10-min warm-up samplemust be run before beginning a test. It is important that the mixer chamber temperature be kept uniform. Preferably, allow 5 min between the end of onetest and the start of anoth
28、er.9.4 Transfer the sample to the absorptometer mixer chamber and replace the cover.9.5 Place a waste receptacle under the delivery tube. Make sure that the tube is free of air bubbles by delivering approximately1cm3of DBP into the waste receptacle.5Technical grade has turned out to be suitable for
29、the test, provided that the density is in the specified range.6Mechanical absorptometers (type A or type B) can be used for the test; however, they are no longer commercially available. Refer to the instructions of the supplier forcalibration procedure.7The rotor motor speed is 1.31 rad/s (125 r/min

Box 2316, Pampa, TX 790662316.D6854 1229.6 Verify the drive speed is set to 1.31 rad/s (125 r/min).9.7 Position the buret delivery tube over the hole in the mixer chamber cover, and set the buret digital counter to zero.9.8 Activate the “s
32、tart” buttons simultaneously. The apparatus will operate until sufficient torque has developed to activate thetorque-limit switch, which will halt the absorptometer and buret.9.9 Record the volume of DBP used as indicated by the buret digital counter.NOTE 5If a penwriter is used to record the torque
33、 curve, deactivate the automatic cut-off by setting the torque limit to 10 000. Stop the test whenthe torque maximum has been recorded unequivocally. Mark on the curve the DBP volume corresponding to the maximum torque and measure the height(in mm or in.) of the maximum. At the left side of the maxi
34、mum, identify the point corresponding to a height of 70 % of the maximum of the curve.Measure the distance on the x-axis from the start point to this point and convert the value to volume of DBP as follows:Volume DBP = delivery rate of buret distance / speed of penwriterNOTE 6If a data acquisition s
35、ystem9is used, the absorptometer will stop after having recorded the torque maximum, and the test result (in cm3/100g) will be reported automatically.9.10 Dismantle the mixer chamber and clean the mixing blades and chamber with a rubber spatula and reassemble.9.11 Determine the amount of moisture in

39、0 g).12. Precision and Bias1012.1 The precision of this test method is based on an interlaboratory study conducted in 2010. Five laboratories tested two typesof silica samples. Every “test result” represents an individual determination. Each laboratory was instructed to report four replicatetest res
40、ults for each material. Except for the limited number of participating laboratories, Practice E691 was followed for the designand analysis of the data.9DBP Data Acquisition Systems are available from C.W.
