8、 5 ISO 24235:2007(E) iv ISO 2007 All rights reservedForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Ea
9、ch member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the Internatio
10、nal Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standar
11、ds adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject

13、amics) Determination of particle size distribution of ceramic powders by laser diffraction method 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a laser diffraction method for measuring particle size distributions, by means of the detection of angular distributions of the intensity of light scattered
14、 by fine-ceramic raw powders dispersed in a liquid phase irradiated by a laser beam. A typical size range is 0,1 m to 50 m. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For unda
15、ted references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

17、 in ISO 13320-1 apply, together with the following. 3.1 angular distribution of intensity of light scattered intensity of light scattered as a function of scattering angle 3.2 scattering angle angle between the directions of the transmitted laser beam and the scattered light detected 3.3 relative re
18、fractive index ratio of the absolute refractive index of the sample to the real part of the dispersion medium ISO 24235:2007(E) 2 ISO 2007 All rights reserved4 Principle of measurement A particle illuminated by a collimated light beam of a known wavelength from a laser presents a scattering signatur
19、e that is a function of the size, shape and relative refractive index of the particle. When particles dispersed in a liquid are irradiated by a laser beam, the scattering signature is supposed to be the summation of the signatures of each particle. In the basic optical system shown in Figure 1, the
20、light scattered by the particles in the laser beam is collected by a Fourier lens on the detector placed on the focal plane of the lens, to detect the angular distribution of the scattered intensity. The size distribution of the particles is mathematically reduced from the measured angular distribut
21、ion of the scattered intensity, so that it can be best-fitted with that predicted, based on the Mie scattering theory, Fraunhofer diffraction theory or the like. NOTE 1 A detailed description of the principle of laser diffraction method is found in ISO 13320-1:1999, Annex D. NOTE 2 For particles of
22、smaller diameters, light scattering at angles in the side and back lobes may also be utilized for the determination of the size distribution of particles.

Some models have additional detectors in the side and back in order to detect the light scatted at larger scattering angles. 5.1.4 The electric signal from each element of the detector is A/D-converted and then sent to the opera

The size distributions of the particles are derived from the signals from all detectors. 5.1.5 The equipment for the determination of particle size distribution used for making measurements in accordance with this International Standard is subject to a regular verification procedur

31、of sample suspensions The preparation of sample suspensions shall be carried out in accordance with ISO 14703. 8 Measuring procedure The measuring procedure shall be as follows. 8.1 Turn on the power supply to the measuring equipment 30 min or more before the start of measurement. 8.2 Select an appr
32、opriate dispersion medium (Clause 6) and conduct sampling in accordance with 7.1, and prepare a suspension of the sample. 8.3 Input the refractive index (indices) of the particles and dispersion medium if the equipment accepts their input. NOTE Care must be taken to specify whether the requested ref
33、ractive index is absolute or relative. Refractive indices of some isotropic materials are listed in Table D.2 in ISO 13320-1:1999, Annex D. Other values can be used when agreed between the supplier and the user of data, provided that they are reported. It should be noted that the refractive indices
34、of the materials and dispersion medium are of crucial importance, especially when the particles are in the sub-micron range. 8.4 Establish the number of times that scattering-intensity data is taken, and the measuring conditions. 8.5 After supplying the dispersion tank with the dispersion medium, fi
35、ll the circulation line with the dispersion medium. 8.6 Confirm that the laser beam has been aligned with the centre of the detector. 8.7 Allow the dispersion medium to circulate. 8.8 Carry out the background measurements. 8.9 Drip the suspension prepared in 8.2 into the dispersion tank, by using a
36、squirt or the like, until a concentration appropriate for the high signal/noise ratio detection of the scattered light intensity is reached. NOTE The value of obscuration or transmittance of the laser beam is a good index to judge whether multiple scattering is incurred. 8.10 Carry out the particle-
37、size-distribution measurements, and record the results.
