13、 ISO 20203 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 226, Materials for the production of primary aluminium. BS ISO 20203:2005 iv Introduction This International Standard is based on ASTM D5187-91(2002) 6published by ASTM International, 100 Barr Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 1942

14、8-2959, United States. ASTM D5187-91(2002) was developed under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 on Petroleum Products and Lubricants as the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D02.05.0D on Petroleum Coke Sampling and Procedures, and was published in December 1991. The crystallinity of petrol

15、eum coke, as reflected by the L cvalue, is a general measure of quality affecting suitability for end use and is a function of the heat treatment used. The crystallite height is used to determine the extent of such heat treatment, for example, during calcination. The value of the L cdetermined is no

16、t affected by coke microporosity or the presence of foreign, non- crystalline materials such as dedust oil. 1 Carbonaceous materials used in the production of aluminium Calcined coke Determination of crystallite size of calcined petroleum coke by X-ray diffraction SAFETY PRECAUTIONS This Internation

17、al Standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1 Scope This Interna

18、tional Standard describes a test method for the determination of the mean crystallite height of a representative, pulverized sample of calcined petroleum coke by interpretation of an X-ray diffraction pattern produced through conventional X-ray scanning techniques. It applies to carbonaceous materia

19、ls used in the production of aluminium. Calcined petroleum coke contains crystallites of different heights. This test method covers the determination of the average height of all crystallites in the sample by empirical interpretation of the X-ray diffraction pattern. The crystallite diameter (L a )

20、is not determined by this test method. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms, abbreviated terms and definitions apply. 2.1 crystallites stacks of graphitic carbon platelets located parallel to one another 2.2 L Cmean or average height of crystallites in a sam

22、he X-ray goniometer NOTE It is usually expressed in 2 . BS ISO 20203:20052 3 Principle A packed sample pulverized to less than 75 m is subjected to a monochromatic X-ray beam and rotated to produce a diffraction pattern under specific conditions. The location and shape of the peak with hkl (002) at

23、d = 0,335 nm is used to calculate L cby manual interpretation of the peak or by computer simulation. 4 Apparatus 4.1 X-ray powder diffractometer, equipped with an X-ray source set for Cu-K radiation, a monochromator or filter for restricting the wavelength range, a sample holder, a radiation detecto

24、r, a signal processor, and readout (chart or computer memory). The diffractometer shall be capable of rate scanning at 1/min or incrementally step scanning at 0,2/step. 4.2 Sample holders, as specified by the manufacturer of the diffractometer, that enable packing of a pulverized sample of sufficien

25、t height to expose a level, smooth surface to the X-ray beam. 4.3 Briquetting press, capable of generating pressures up to 70 MPa. 4.4 Compressible aluminum caps, used as a support for producing a briquetted sample. 4.5 Silicon or quartz sample, of reference material quality suitable for calibrating

26、 the diffractometer. NOTE These materials are usually available from national reference organizations e.g. the National Institute of Standards and Technology in USA. 5 Reagents and materials Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and only distilled water or water of equivalent purity (see

27、1, 2 and 3 in the Bibliography). 5.1 Acetone. 5.2 Polyethylene glycol, approximate molecular weight of 200. 5.3 Binding agent, prepare a solution of polyethylene glycol and acetone, so that the proportion of polyethylene glycol in the solution, expressed as a mass fraction (w) by percentage of the t

28、otal composition. is 15 %, by adding 15 g of polyethylene glycol to 85 g of acetone. 6 Sample preparation 6.1 General For recommended practices for obtaining, handling and preparing coke samples, refer to ISO 6375 5 . Reduce and divide the gross sample to obtain a laboratory analysis sample. Divide,

29、 by riffling, a minimum of 100 g from the laboratory analysis sample. Crush 100 g of the test sample such that 98 % will pass through a 75 m (No. 200) sieve. 6.1.1 Any of the packing techniques listed in 6.2 may be used for packing the sample into the X-ray diffractometer specimen holder: BS ISO 202

30、03:20053 6.2 Packing techniques for X-ray diffraction specimen holder 6.2.1 Back-fill technique Put the window on a glass slide (Slide 1) and transfer sufficient quantities of sample into the window. Work the sample towards the corners of the holder using a glass slide or spatula. Press down using a

31、 flat glass slide and scrape off any excess material. Place a glass slide (Slide 2) on top of the sample and secure with tape. Remove Slide 1 to expose a flat, smooth surface before inserting into the diffractometer for analysis. 6.2.2 Front-fill technique Place a confining ring over the round sampl

32、e holder and fill the holder cavity and ring with sample. The ring will initially overfill the sample holder. Work the sample into the entire cavity and ring. Scrape the excess off with a glass plate or spatula. Press down using a flat glass slide. Remove any excess material on the front face of the

33、 holder. Repress the sample with the glass slide while turning clockwise and anticlockwise. Continue until the sample is level with the holder face. Place the sample in the diffractometer holder. 6.2.3 Side-loading technique Pack the sample. Clamp a glass slide over the top face to form a temporary

34、cavity wall. With the holder in a vertical position, drift the powdered sample into the end opening. If necessary, use a cardboard pusher cut to fit the cavity, to lightly compress the sample so it will remain in the cavity. Return the holder to a horizontal position and carefully remove the glass s

35、lide. Place the sample in the diffractometer holder. 6.2.4 Briquetting technique Weigh out 4,0 g of the sample onto a watch glass and pipette exactly 3 ml of the binding agent onto the sample and mix thoroughly with a spatula. Place the sample under an infrared-heat lamp and allow the acetone to eva

36、porate. Typically, about 1 or 2 min will be required to eliminate the acetone odour from the sample. Break up the caked sample with a spatula and transfer to an aluminum cap whose diameter is compatible with the sample holder of the diffractometer. Place the cap in a briquetting press and press at 4

37、8 MPa. Transfer the pelletized sample to the sample holder and insert into the diffractometer for analysis. 7 Calibration 7.1 Ensure that the diffractometer is in correct mechanical and optical alignment and that intensities have been maximized through the procedures described in the instrument manu

38、facturers documentation. A service engineer or in-house technician who has been well instructed in the correct alignment procedures suggested by the manufacturer best accomplishes this. 7.2 Monitor proper angles and intensities with the reference silicon or quartz sample and take corrective actions

39、if necessary. 8 Procedure 8.1 Prepare and operate the diffractometer in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Once established, closely control all instrumental parameters to ensure repeatable analyses. 8.2 Place the packed sample in the instruments sample holder and energize the X-ray sou

Record the data either on a strip-chart recorder scanning at 1/min or through computer software designed to read and store the angular and intensity measurements. The measurement ti

41、me can be significantly reduced by selecting suitable segments of the range 14 to 342 . Segments are chosen to cover the required points in 9.1.

Construct line EF such that it intersects the peak

44、at half of its maximum value. The points at which EF intersects the peak are 2 1and 2 2 , respectively. 9.1.5 For computer simulation based on the intensities recorded at 0,2 intervals, produce a mathematical representation of the diffraction curve.
