21、opriate corrections are made in the calculation.Unless otherwise stated, weights of all samples and residuesshould be recorded to the nearest 0.0001 g.4.2.2 In all mathematical operations on a set of observedvalues, the equivalent of two more places of figures than in thesingle observed values shall
22、 be retained.

Standard Consistency of Lime Putty5.1 Significance and Use:5.1.1 In order to measure certain physical properties of alime putty, such as plastic
24、ity, it is necessary to have a uniformor standard consistency (viscosity), since the property mea-surement is affected by the consistency level.5.2 Apparatus:5.2.1 Modified Vicat ApparatusThe apparatus, con-structed as shown in Fig. 1, shall consist of a bracket, A,bearing a movable brass rod, B, 6.
25、3 mm in diameter and ofsuitable length to fit the Vicat bracket. A plunger, C, 12.5 mmin diameter, made of aluminum tubing, shall be attached to thelower end of the rod. The total weight of the rod with plungershall be 30 g. The lower end of the plunger shall be closedwithout shoulders or curvature
26、and the tube may be loaded withshot to the specified weight. The total weight required may alsobe obtained by means of a weight, D, screwed into the rod. Therod can be held in any position by means of a screw, E, and hasa mark midway between the ends which moves under a scale,F, graduated in millime
27、tres, attached to the bracket, A.5.2.2 MoldThe conical ring mold shall be made of anoncorroding, nonabsorbent material, and shall have an insidediameter of 70 mm at the base and 60 mm at the top, and aheight of 40 mm.5.2.3 Base PlateThe base plate for supporting the ringmold shall be of plate glass
28、and about 100 mm square.5.2.4 Mechanical Mixers.5.3 Standard Consistency Determination:5.3.1 Mechanical Mixing Procedure Using the Vac-U-MixerTo a measured amount of water contained in an800-cm3Vac-U-Mix bowl, add 300 g of hydrated lime andhand mix for 10 s with a stiff spatula (Note 2). Cover putty
29、 toFIG. 1 Modified Vicat ApparatusC110 142prevent evaporation of water. After the applicable soakingperiod, 30 min maximum for Type S, special hydrated lime,and not less than 16 h nor more than 24 h for Type N, normalhydrated lime, insert the paddle assembly and mix the putty for30 s with the mechan
30、ical mixer. Remove the paddle assemblyand scrape down any putty adhering to it and to the sides of themixing bowl. Remix for 30 s and determine the consistency asprescribed in 5.3. If the penetration is less than 15 mm, returnall of the material to the mixer bowl, add additional water, andremix for
31、15 s. If the penetration is greater than 25 mm, repeatthe test.NOTE 2Most lime hydrates will require 250 to 300 mL of water toproduce a putty of proper consistency for this test if 300 g of lime are used.5.3.2 Mechanical Mixing Procedure Using the Hobart N-50MixerTo a measured amount of water contai
32、ned in the N-50mixing bowl, add 600 g of hydrated lime and hand mix for 10 swith a stiff spatula (Note 3). Cover putty to prevent evaporationof water.After the applicable soaking period, 30 min maximumfor Type S, special hydrated lime, and not less than 16 h normore than 24 h for Type N, normal hydr
33、ated lime, insert thepaddle assembly and mix the putty for 1 min at a slow speed.Stop the mixer and scrape down the paddle and the sides of themixing bowl. Remix for 4 min at a slow speed. Determine theconsistency as prescribed in 5.3.3. If the penetration is less than15 mm, return all of the materi
34、al to the mixing bowl, addadditional water, and remix for 15 s. If the penetration is morethan 25 mm, repeat the test.NOTE 3Most lime hydrates will require 500 to 600 mL of water toproduce a putty of proper consistency for this test if 600 g of lime are used.5.3.3 Consistency DeterminationTo determi
35、neconsistency, place the mold with its larger end resting on theglass base plate and fill with the lime putty. Then strike off theputty flush with the top of the mold. Center the lime putty,confined in the ring mold resting on the plate, under the rod ofthe modified Vicat apparatus (Fig. 1). Bring t
36、he plunger end, C,in contact with the surface of the lime putty and take an initialreading. Release the rod and take the final reading 30 s after theplunger is released. The lime putty is of standard consistencywhen a penetration of 20 6 5 mm is obtained. Record both thetotal amount of water require
37、d to bring the putty to standardconsistency and the actual penetration. Proceed with theplasticity determination in accordance with 6.3.5.4 Precision and Bias:5.4.1 The precision and bias of this test method has not beendetermined.6. Plasticity of Lime Putty6.1 Significance and Use:6.1.1 This test m
38、ethod provides a measure of the degree ofstiffening of lime putty of standard consistency as water iswithdrawn from it by a standard suction base plate.6.1.2 Plasticity is an important property when applyingmixtures containing lime putty to porous or absorptive surfacessuch as in plastering, stuccoi
39、ng, and masonry construction.6.2 Apparatus:6.2.1 Determine the plasticity of lime putty using theplasticimeter shown in Fig. 2.46.2.2 Cleaning and Care of Base PlatesBase plates maybe made of porcelain or plaster. In making the plasticitydeterminations, much of the success attainable depends uponthe
40、 condition of the base plates. In the case of porcelain plateswhich are reused, improper cleaning results in clogging of thepores with reduction in the rate of absorption.After a porcelainplate has been used, wipe the excess lime off and immerse theplate in clear water for not less than 2 h, after w

Thentransfer to a receptacle containing running water for at least1 h. The plate is then free of acid. After the removal of excesswater, place the plate in an oven ov
42、ernight at a temperature ofbetween 100 and 110C (212 and 230F) for drying. Beforeusing, cool the plate to room temperature. In the case of plasterbase plates, dry the base plates prior to use in plasticity orabsorption testing in an oven at a temperature between 37.8and 48.9C (100 and 120F) until th
