3、are of general importance toresearchers, processors, suppliers, vendors, and users of particulate materials. Since there arenumerous methods and devices in use, comparisons of size measurement data are subject to perceivedinconsistencies that may be much reduced by the use of standardized reporting.

4、Data generated by any one size measurement method may be consistent in many respects, yet betroublesome to correlate due to variances in data processing and reporting formats among equipmentmanufacturers. Data generated from methods employing different physical principles present seriouscorrelation

5、problems due to their sensing of different parameters related to particle size and someunrelated, such as density, shape and optical properties. Standardized reporting may reduce confusionresulting from different particle size measurement practices.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers reporting particle

6、 size measurementdata.1.2 This practice applies to particle size measurementmethods, devices, detail levels, and data formats for drypowders, and wet suspensions of solids, gels, or emulsiondroplets. This practice does not pertain to liquid particles.NOTE 1For information on reporting liquid particl

7、e measurementdata, refer to Practice E799.1.3 This practice does not concern particle concentrationinformation.1.4 This practice uses SI (Systme International) units asstandard. State all numerical values in terms of SI units unlessspecific instrumentation software reports particle sizeinformation,

Refer to Practice E380 for proper usage of SIunits.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety c

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 When evaluating the particle size information, if theprocedures of the data processing are not available, the user ofthe data must make assumptions concerning the reported datain the event of

In order for differentdata sets to be compared it is crucial that the parties report the1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E29 on Particle andSpray Characterization and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee E29.02 onNon-Sieving Methods.Curr

Level 1 information may be sufficient in such cases asidentifying a certain grade of a material or when detailedknowledge of analytical methodology is n

18、 through Levels 2 and 3 willallow users to perform comparative material evaluationsamong several suppliers, set specifications or define a purchaseagreement, perform inter-laboratory studies and most impor-tantly resolve disputes among suppliers and users.3.3 Reported particle size measurement is a

Caution is required when comparing data frominstruments operating on different physical or chemical param-eters or with different particle size measu
