Water absorption is one of the properties used to characterize different types of ceramic articles. Any of the three test methods may be used, as appropriate, but method A is based on Euro

9、pean Community Regulation No 679/72, Customs classification of products to be died to porcelain: Vitreous china“ or Semi-vitreous china“ type, and is for use for such classification purposes. 1 scope This European Standard specifies test methods for the determination of the water absorption of ceram

10、ic articles. Three test methods are described - test method A, based on the increase in mass of test specimens after immersion in boiling water under defined conditions, which requires test specimens with not more than one glazed surface; - test method B, based on the same principle and general proc

11、edure as method A but with a longer period of immersion in boiling water; - test method C, based on the increase in mass of test specimens after a combination of evacuation of the test specimens to assist water penetration, followed by immersion in water and boiling; the test specimens may be glazed

12、 on both surfaces and are taken from different parts of a ceramic article to include possible inhomogeneities of the article. NOTE Values of very low water absorption should preferably be determined by test method C. 2 Definitions For the purposes of this standard, the following definitions apply 2.

13、1 water absorption quantity of water that can be absorbed by the body of a ceramic ware 2.2 body ceramic material shaped to constitute the ware, more or less vitrified, which is generally coated with glaze Page 3 EN 12171997 3 Principle The increase in mass is determined as a result of immersion in

14、water under controlled conditions and is expressed as a percentage of the mass of the dry test specimen. 4 Water 4.1 Disliued or de-ionize warn, for test methods A and B. 4.2 De-gassed distilled or b) for hollow-ware, take one test specimen from the top section and the second test specimen from the

15、base area of the sample. NOTE The test specimens obtained in this way may be unglazed, glazed on one major surface, or glazed on both major surfaces. 7 Procedures 7.1 Test methodA Dry the test specimens to constant mass in the oven (5.1.1) at 110 “C * 5 “C. NOTE As a guide, a 3 h period will suffice

16、 for test specimens obtained by breaking an article of tableware. If the test specimens are obtained by cutting an article of tableware using a saw (5.1.8) and are wet, then a longer drying time may he necessary. Place the test specimens in the desiccator (5.1.3) and allow them to cool to ambient te

17、mperature. Weigh each test specimen and record the final mass, ml, to the nearest 0,05 g. Immediately after weighing immerse the test specimens in distilled or deionized water (4.1). To avoid bumping during subsequent boiling ensure that the test specimens are not in contact with the bottom of the v

18、essel (5.1.4). Boil for 2 h f 5 min and then leave the test specimens to soak in the cooling water for a furilter period of not less thCui 24 h. Remove the test specimens from the water and wipe with a clean and slightly moist smooth cotton cloth (5.1.6) to remove surface water. Completely dry the g

19、lazed surface and dry any cavities or holes using a slim, slightly damp brush (5.1.7). Weigh each test specimen and record the masses after immersion, m2, to the nearest 0,05 g. 7.2 Test method B Cany out the test procedure as described for method A in 7.1, except that the period of immersion in boi

20、ling water is extended to 4 h f 10 min. Page 5 EN 1217:1997 7.3 Test method C Dry the test specimens to constant mass in the oven (6.2.1) at 110 “C 5 OC. Place the test specimens in the desiccator (5.2.2) and allow them to cool to ambient temperature. Weigh each test specimen and record the mass, mi

21、, to the nearest 0,Ol g. Place the dry test specimens on setter pins into a suitable vessel (6.2.4), reduce the pressure therein to 2,5 kPa * 1,5 kPa and maintain at this pressure for 60 min 5 min. Without admitting air, admit degassed distilled or degassed de-ionized water (4.2) at ambient temperat

22、ure to the vessel, una the test specimens are fully covered. Then admit air to the vessel, returning it to atmospheric pressure, and boil the water and test specimens for 60 min f 5 min. To avoid bumping during the boiling ensure that the test specimens remain fuily submerged but do not touch the bo

23、ttom of the vessel. Mow the test specimens to cool for not less than 24 h whilst remaining submerged in the boiled water. Remove the test specimens from the water and wipe them with a moistened smooth cotton cloth (5.2.8) such that glazed surfaces are completely dry and broken surfaces retain a thin

24、 film of moisture appearing as a sheen. Weigh each test specimen and record the masses after immersion, m2, to the nearest 0,Ol g. 8 Expression of results For each test specimen, calculate the water absorption as a percentage of the dry mass of the test specimen using the following equation: x 100%

25、rn2 - ml ml water absorption = where: ml m2 is the mass of the test specimen after drying to constant mass, in grams; is the mass of the test specimen after immersion, in grams. Calculate the arithmetic mean of the results obtained for all test specimens to the first decimal place. 9 ist report The

26、test report shall include the following details: a) a reference to this European Standard b) an identification of the article tested; c) the test method used, i.e. A, B or C; d) water absorption for each test specimen calculated in accordance with the equation given in clause 8 and the arithmetic me
