21、the carbon dust caused by the selective burning of the binder matrix can be collected outside the furnace. Loose particles on the sample are removed using a tumbling-apparatus.

The temperature shall not exceed (550 1) C

34、and the cooling rate shall be 15 C/h. 8.2 Weigh the initial sample (m 0 ) to the nearest 0,1 g and record the mass. 8.3 Start the temperature controller. Raise the temperature of the muffle furnace (5.1) to 550 C. Place the test specimen (core) in the furnace. After 30 min, start the air (4.1) flowi

35、ng through the pre-heater (see Figure 1). Set the gas pressure of the air to 0,2 MPa and adjust the flow meter valve so as to have a flow rate of 200 l/h. After 10 h, when the temperature of (400 1) C is reached, switch off the air. Remove the cylinder when the furnace has reached 300 C and collect

36、the dust from the aluminium plate. Allow the test specimen to cool to room temperature. 8.4 Weigh each test specimen (core) with its associated dust (m 1 ) to the nearest 0,1 g. Place the test specimen (core) into the tumbling-apparatus chamber (5.7) and allow it to tumble for 20 min. Empty the cham

37、ber (5.7.2) into the 4 mm sieve (5.7.4) and remove the balls (5.7.3). Weigh the residual body of the test specimen (core) (m 2 )t ot he nearest 0,1 g. 9 Calculation The reactivity-to-air parameters, w RA (residue, dust and loss), expressed as a percentage by mass, are given by the formulae : Residue

38、, w RAR : w RAR = m m 2 0 100 Dust, w RAD : w RAD = mm m 12 0 100 Loss, w RAL : w RAL = mm m 01 0 100 where m 0 is the initial mass, expressed in grams, of the test specimen (core); m 1 is the mass, expressed in grams, of the residual test specimen (core) and dust; m 2 is the mass, expressed in gram

39、s, of the residual test specimen (core) after tumbling. Report the result to 0,1 g. 10 Precision 10.1 Repeatability The repeatability of the test depends strongly on the homogeneity of the tested cores and is therefore difficult to assess. BS60433.9.1:20028 10.2 Reproducibility An inter-laboratory t

40、rial has allowed an estimate of the reproducibility, R, of the test to be made as a function of the reactivity-to-air (see Figure 5). These reproducibility figures can be used when at least 30 cores are used for determination to characterize a given electrode population. 11 Test report The test repo
