ASTM F1080-1993(2008) Standard Test Method for Determining the Consistency of Viscous Liquids Using a Consistometer《用稠度计测定粘液稠度的标准试验方法》.pdf

1、Designation: F 1080 93 (Reapproved 2008)Standard Test Method forDetermining the Consistency of Viscous Liquids Using aConsistometer1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 1080; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of r

2、evision, the 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.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test metho

3、d describes a procedure for the determi-nation of the flow of a standard volume of a semisolid or thickliquid under its own weight.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values in parentheses are for information only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all

4、 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. Summary of Test Method2.1 A sample of the material to be test

5、ed is poured into areservoir and the distance of flow in a horizontal direction isread from a ruled track after a fixed time following thematerials release from the reservoir.3. Significance and Use3.1 This measurement of flow gives results that cannot bepredicted with viscosity measurements, due to

6、 surface tensionand density effects. The measured flow, is related to flowperformance of viscous materials sprayed on aircraft surfacesor other large structures.4. Apparatus4.1 Consistometer constructed as described in Annex A1.4.2 Timing Device accurate to 61s.4.3 Mixer capable of 1600 r/min and fi

7、tted with a 25-mm(1-in.) diameter three-bladed propeller.4.4 Beaker, 500-mL.5. Procedure5.1 Bring the material to be tested and the apparatus to thesame ambient temperature in the range from 20 to 25C (68 to77F).5.2 Agitate 250 mL of the material to be tested using themixer set at 1600 r/min, for 1

8、min 6 5 s, or until a vortex formsthat indicates all of the sample has been exposed to shear.Avoid aeration of the sample as this may cause evaporation ofsolvents.5.3 Place the consistometer on a level surface and adjust theleveling screws until the bubble is centered.5.4 Close the consistometer gat

9、e and set the trigger.5.5 Fill the consistometer reservoir with the material to betested (approximately 100 mL), and level the surface with aspatula or a straight edge.5.6 Start the test by simultaneously tripping the consistom-eter gate trigger and starting the timing device. At 5 min 6 1s (unless

10、otherwise specified), read the distance the materialhas flowed. Average the result to the nearest 0.5 cm by takingthe maximum distance indicated in the center of the trough andadding this to the minimum distance at the edge of the troughand dividing the result by two.6. Report6.1 The report shall in

11、clude the following:6.1.1 Material name or reference, type and lot number.6.1.2 Average distance of flow to nearest 0.5 cm.6.1.3 Test temperature in C to 61C.6.1.4 Duration of test in minutes and seconds.7. Precision and Bias7.1 Precision:7.1.1 ReproducibilityViscous materials often vary in con-sist

12、ency dependent upon age, temperature, and shear history.Caution shall be exercised between laboratories regarding thehistory of a sample.7.1.2 Duplicate results by the same operator on the samesample shall be within 0.5 cm.7.2 BiasNo statement can be made regarding bias as thereare no absolute nor w
