17、this British Standard specifies composition, moisture content, physical and chemical requirements for magnesia preformed insulation slabs, lags and pipe sections, generally for use up to about315 C. 2 References The titles of the standards publications referred to in this standard are listed on the

18、inside back cover. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this Part of this BritishStandard, the definitions given in BS874, BS2972, BS3533, BS5422 and BS5970 apply. 4 Sampling and testing Sampling and testing shall be in accordance with the appropriate clause in BS2972 unless otherwise stated in this st

19、andard. For thermal conductivity determinations a flat slab shall be used for the tests. 5 Composition The material shall consist of a mixture of not less than85% by mass of light basic magnesium carbonate with well-opened reinforcing fibres evenly distributed (see8.2, note 2). 6 Moisture content Wh

20、en tested in accordance with 40.1 of BS2972:1975 the moisture content of the material as received shall not exceed5% by mass. 7 Physical requirements 7.1 General. In the application of the physical requirements of7.3 to 7.6,95% confidence limits shall apply. 7.2 Thermal conductivity. When tested in

21、accordance with the appropriate method of test for thermal conductivity given in BS874, the thermal conductivity shall not exceed the values given in Table 1. Table 1 Thermal conductivity values NOTEBS874 requires the test report to state which method of test was employed, the bulk density of the ma

22、terial, the hot face temperature and cold face temperature (generally within the range15C to30C), the conditioning procedure and the moisture content before and after the test. 7.3 Bulk density. The bulk density of the dry material shall lie within the range175kg/m 3to225kg/m 3 . 7.4 Flexural streng

23、th. The flexural strength shall be not less than250kN/m 2 . 7.5 Compressive strength. The reduction in thickness shall not exceed5% under a compressive load of350kN/m 2 . 7.6 Heat stability. When tested in accordance with BS2972 under conditions of soaking heat at increasing temperatures the materia

24、l shall be deemed suitable for normal use at operating temperatures at which the following requirements are met: a) linear shrinkage 2% maximum; b) reduction in thickness not exceeding5% under a compressive load of200kN/m 2 . 8 Chemical requirements 8.1 Alkalinity. When tested by the method describe

25、d in Appendix A the pH value recorded shall be between9.5and11.0. 8.2 Corrosive attack. The material shall not include significant quantities of substances that will promote corrosive attack on the surfaces with which it is to be in contact. Where necessary, trace quantities of water-soluble chlorid

26、es shall be estimated in accordance with section 22 of BS2972:1975. NOTE 1Water-soluble chlorides are normally present in trace quantities in magnesia preformed insulation as in most thermal insulating materials. In the presence of moisture and oxygen, and under certain adverse metallurgical conditi

27、ons, chloride ions are capable of initiating stress corrosion cracking in susceptible metal alloys such as austenitic stainless steels. It is not practicable to indicate a safe upper limit for chloride content since water can leach out soluble chlorides from substantial volumes of insulating materia

28、ls and allow them to be concentrated at the metal-insulation interface. In addition, water from outside sources such as the process itself or wind-driven spray can substantially increase the chloride content of the insulation. In conditions potentially conducive to stress corrosion cracking, appropr

29、iate safeguards should be adopted (see BS 5970). NOTE 2Some organic matter may be present either in fibrous form or as a bonding agent. It is suggested that the composition of the product be checked with the manufacturer for use in process conditions where organics may present a hazard, e.g.processe

30、s involving powerful oxidizing agents, or thermal insulation on pipework and plant in a flammable atmosphere.

31、erials that are not subject to control by Government regulations, (seenote), asbestos-free magnesia preformed insulation, manufactured in accordance with Part 1 of this standard, shall be distinctively coloured pink/red. The colouring matter shall remain sufficiently stable and permanent under servi

32、ce conditions to permit the ready identification of the outer surface of the insulation. NOTEGovernment regulations 2)concerning asbestos-containing insulation require that special precautions be observed in order to safeguard the health of individuals who are handling these materials or who are wor

33、king in the vicinity. 9.2 Materials which contain asbestos fibre shall not be other than self-coloured. 10 Standard shapes and sizes 10.1 Preformed magnesia shall be supplied in the form of flat slabs, bevelled lags, pipe sections or radiused and bevelled lags complying with the following.

41、requirements of the standard. The accuracy of such a claim is therefore solely the manufacturers responsibility. Enquiries as to the availability of third party certification to support such claims should be addressed to the Director, Quality Assurance Division, British Standards Institution, Maylan

From the bulk sample, taken

43、in accordance withBS2972, cut five pieces, each of approximate mass7g, from separate units. Crush these pieces and mix thoroughly. A.2 Determination of pH. Weigh2g of the crushed sample and shake well for10min with100mL of distilled water at room temperature. Leave to settle for5min and measure the

44、pH of the mixture, using a standard pH meter (seeBS1647and BS3145) and decanting the solution if necessary. Repeat the test on a further2g of the sample and report the mean pH value. A.3 Check on composition A.3.1 General. If it is considered desirable to determine fibre or magnesia contents, the fo

45、llowing methods are suitable. A.3.2 Fibre content. Dry and weigh up to30g of the remainder of the crushed sample, transfer to a beaker, add200mL of distilled water and30mL of glacial acetic acid. Boil gently for10min, filter by suction through a Buchner funnel and wash with distilled water. Dry the

46、residue to constant mass at105C to110C. Mass of fibre in sample (in%) A.3.3 Magnesium oxide content. Transfer the filtrate and washings from A.3.2 to a calibrated2L flask and dilute to the mark. Mix well and withdraw suitable aliquots for the determination of magnesia by titration with diaminoethane
