1、Designation: C1119/C1119M 90 (Reapproved 2015)Standard Test Method forVacuum Drainage of Asbestos-Cement Mixes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C1119/C1119M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the ye
2、ar of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method describes a laboratory procedure forthe evaluation of asbestos fiber by measuring the rate ofdr
3、ainage under suction, of an asbestos-cement mixture.1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues fro
4、m the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.3 WarningBreathing of asbestos dust is hazardous.Asbestos and asbestos products present demonstrated healthrisks for users and for those with whom they come into contact.In addition to other precautions, when working with asbestos-ce
5、ment products, minimize the dust that results. For informa-tion on the safe use of chrysoltile asbestos, refer to “Safe Useof Chrysotile Asbestos: A Manual on Preventive and ControlMeasures.”21.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It
6、 is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Summary of Test Method4.1 The fiber to be evaluated is fiberized to simulate thespecific surface area at which it is used in the industrialprocess, and it is added to the same mix using representativeingr
10、edients and process water. If the latter is not available,saturated water may be substituted (see 7.7). The slurry isdewatered on a 177-m No. 80 screen cloth (or in accordancewith the Apparatus Section of Test Method D3752) under avacuum of 90 kPa 70 cm Hg. The end point is determined asthe point wh
11、en air begins to pass through the filter cake, andthe suction drops abruptly. The time taken to reach the endpoint is recorded and this is a function of the drainage rate ofthe mix.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method can be used to estimate the speed ofdrainage and the rate of production of
12、products from the fiberevaluated, in industrial applications. It may be applied to singlegrades of fiber, or to fiber blends, together with the same bindersystem and process water used in the process under evaluation.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee C17 onFiber-Reinforce

32、 air, and creating a vacuum. When the absolutepressure decreases to 50 kPa (vacuum increases to 40 cm Hg)the electric timer will start. The absolute pressure will continueto decrease to the set point of 8 6 0.02 kPa (vacuum willincrease to 70 6 0.2 cm Hg), and remain at that point until thewater has
33、 drained, and air can enter the system by passingthrough the filter cake. Then the vacuum will be brokenabruptly, and the timer will stop when the absolute pressurereaches 50 kPa vacuum of 40 cm Hg.10.5 Record this drainage time to the nearest second, andtest a second specimen.11. Calculation or Int
34、erpretation of Results11.1 Calculate the deviation from the mean of the twovalues recorded, and if this exceeds 66 %, carry out anadditional trial.12. Report12.1 Report the average of two, or three trials, as the casemay be.12.2 Fully identify the sample as to designation and origin.13. Precision an
