EN 13900-5:2005 (E) 3 1 Scope This part of EN 13900 specifies
17、 a method of assessing the degree of dispersion of a colorant in a thermoplastic polymer. The method is suitable for testing colorants in the form of colour concentrates in all polymers used for extrusion and melt-spinning processes. The filter pressure value (FPV) determined according to this metho
18、d is valid only for the equipment, conditions and test polymer being used. The use of test conditions differing from those specified might give different results. The method of preparing the colour concentrate is not specified in this European Standard. The results obtained for individual colorants
19、are therefore comparable only when the same method of preparation for colour concentrates is used. Annex A is normative and gives a model for the breaker plate. Annex B is informative and provides a model test report containing a result of the round-robin-tests carried out in preparing this European
20、 Standard. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies.

22、reen pack related to the amount of colorant tested 4 Principle The test mixture, consisting of a colour concentrate and a basic test polymer, is passed through an extruder fitted with melt pump and screen pack with breaker plate. In front of the screen pack is a melt pressure transducer. The pressur
23、e difference between the start pressure and the maximum pressure is used to calculate the filter pressure value FPV. 5 Material 5.1 Colour concentrate Homogeneous preparation of a colorant in an appropriate thermoplastic polymer. 5.2 Basic test polymer Thermoplastic polymer, of a grade and type to b

EN 13900-5:2005 (E) 4 NOTE The development work on this European Standard was carried out in polypropylene (PP). 5.3 Test mixture A homogeneous mixture of a colour concentrate (5.1) and the basic test polymer (5.2) as specified in Clause 7. 6 Apparatus 6.1 Ge
25、neral Figure 1 illustrates the principle construction of the apparatus (see 6.2 to 6.7). Key A Melt pressure transducer in front of the melt pump B Melt pressure transducer in front of the filter Figure 1 Apparatus 6.2 Extruder A single screw extruder with non-grooved barrel and a screw without disp
26、ersing elements shall be used. A screw with a diameter between 19 mm and 30 mm and with a length of 20 L/D to 30 L/D (length/diameter) is recommended. It is necessary to have a melt pressure transducer in front of the melt pump (A) to measure the pressure of the melt. An electronic controller with s
27、crew speed/pressure feedback loop is necessary in order to maintain this pressure constant, preferably at a level between 30 bar and 60 bar, to ensure that the melt pump is completely filled and to ensure optimum homogeneity of the melt. 6.3 Melt pump The melt pump, preferably a metering pump, shall
28、 provide a constant throughput of 50 cm/min to 60 cm/min. 6.4 Melt pressure transducer The pressure range shall be preferably between 0 bar and 100 bar for mixture 1 (7.2) and between 0 bar and 350 bar for mixture 2 (7.3). The accuracy of the melt pressure transducer (B) shall be within 1 % wi th a
29、repeatability of less than 0,1%. NOTE The resolution of the pressure measurement should be 0,1 bar. 6.5 Breaker plate A breaker plate is used to support the screen-pack and defines its free area (see Annex A). EN 13900-5:2005 (E) 5 6.6 Filter 6.6.1 General The filter media is that part of the system
30、 which influences the differential pressure used as the basic data for determining the results of the test. The differential pressure increase is dependent on the retention characteristics of the filter media. In order to have comparable results it is important that the filter media is defined in de
31、tail and assembled exactly to specification. Screen-packs are used as filter media. The screen-pack is assembled from ultrasonically cleaned filter discs, having a filter diameter of 33,8 mm ( 0,1 mm), in a multi-layer construction, preferably held together in an aluminium frame. All screens shall b
32、e made from a suitable material appropriate to the polymer used, e.g. stainless steel in accordance with EN 10088-1, Type 1.4404. Any change in specification (e. g. weaving pattern, surface condition, number of apertures per unit length or aperture width) can lead to a different test result. 6.6.2 S
33、creen-pack 1 Two-layer construction, where the first layer is a reverse plain dutch weave 615/108 warp/weft per 25,4 mm with a wire diameter of 0,042 mm/0,14 mm and the second layer (support mesh) is a square mesh plain weave 0,63 mm aperture width with a wire diameter of 0,40 mm calendered (for fur
34、ther details see ISO 9044). 6.6.3 Screen-pack 2 Two-layer construction, where the first layer is a reverse plain dutch weave 615/132 warp/weft per 25,4 mm with a wire diameter of 0,042 mm/0,13 mm and the second layer (support mesh) is a square mesh plain weave 0,63 mm aperture width with a wire diam
35、eter of 0,40 mm calendered (for further details see ISO 9044). 6.6.4 Screen-pack 3 Three-layer construction, where the first layer is a twilled dutch weave 165/1400 warp/weft per 25,4 mm with a wire diameter of 0,071 mm/0,040 mm and the second layer (support mesh) is a square mesh plain weave 0,25 m
36、m aperture width with a wire diameter of 0,16 mm and the third layer (support mesh) is a square mesh plain weave 0,63 mm aperture width with a wire diameter of 0,40 mm calendered (for further details see ISO 9044). NOTE 1 The use of further finer screen-packs than described in 6.6.2 may be agreed be
37、tween the interested parties. NOTE 2 It is recommended to request confirmation from the supplier that the above specifications are used for the screen- pack. Especially the number of apertures per unit length and the wire diameters of the individual layers are extremely critical for the result of th
38、e filter pressure value test. 6.7 Sealing ring The sealing ring or aluminium frame of the filter disc should have a diameter of 33,8 mm 0,1 mm and an inside diameter of 28 mm 0,1 mm. If the screen-pack has no aluminium frame a sealing ring is to be used. 7 Preparation of test mixtures 7.1 General Th
39、e colour concentrate (5.1) and the basic test polymer (5.2) are mixed together, for example in a glass or plastics container, to provide the homogeneous test mixture. NOTE 1 Mixture 1 is recommended for colour pigments and mixture 2 is recommended for white and carbon black pigments.EN 13900-5:2005
40、(E) 6 NOTE 2 The use of other mixtures may be agreed between the interested parties. NOTE 3 Colorant quantities below 5,0 g will lead to insufficient accuracy. 7.2 Mixture 1 A test mixture of 200 g (100 %), including 5,0 g colorant (2,5 %) is used. NOTE If the colour concentrate contains 40% coloran
41、t the quantities are: 12,5 g colour concentrate and 187,5 g basic test polymer. 7.3 Mixture 2 A test mixture of 1000 g (100 %), including 80,0 g colorant (8 %) is used. NOTE If the colour concentrate contains 40% colorant the quantities are: 200 g colour concentrate and 800 g basic test polymer. 8 P
42、rocedure 8.1 Pre-conditioning The complete apparatus (Clause 6) should be pre-heated to the processing temperature appropriate for the basic test polymer. The equipment should be cleaned or adequately purged with the basic test polymer (5.2) before each test is started. 8.2 Determination Mount a new
43、 screen-pack (6.6.2 to 6.6.4) in front of the breaker plate (6.5) and the measuring equipment in such a way that the melt flows through the finer screen first and through the breaker plate last. A sealing ring (6.7) shall prevent leakage of the mixture around the edge of the screen-pack. Allow suffi
44、cient time for the screen-pack and the breaker plate to reach the temperature of the equipment. This time will depend on the equipment being used. The basic test polymer (5.2) is then plasticized in the extruder and passed through the screen-pack with a defined melt volume throughput until the melt
45、temperature and pressure remain constant. The machine conditions should guarantee a constant melt temperature, with temperature deviations of less than 2C. Measure the start pressure p sdeveloped by the basic test polymer directly in front of the screen-pack. The start pressure p sshould be constant
46、. When the hopper is empty and the extruder screw is just visible, add the test mixture (5.3). NOTE A pressure drop can occur because of different rheological properties of basic test polymer and test mixture. After feeding of the test mixture is completed, 100 g basic test polymer are added just as
47、 the extruder screw becomes visible again. The test is finished as soon as the extruder screw once again becomes visible. Use the recorded data to evaluate the maximum pressure p maxand to calculate the filter pressure value. Remove the screen-pack while still hot and purge the apparatus thoroughly
48、with basic test polymer for the next test. EN 13900-5:2005 (E) 7 9 Evaluation The filter pressure value FPV, defined as the increase of pressure per gram colorant, is calculated by using the following equation: c s max ) - ( FPV m p p = where FPV filter pressure value, in bar per gram bar/g; p s sta
49、rt pressure, in bar; p max maximum pressure, in bar; m c colorant quantity used in the test, in gram. It is recommended to express the filter pressure value accurate to one decimal place. Figure 2 illustrates an example of a typical pressure curve.
