1、Designation: C607 88 (Reapproved 2010)1Standard Practice forCoking Large Shapes of Carbon-Bearing Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C607; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last
2、revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1NOTEEditorially corrected Section 2 and 5.1 in September 2010.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the preparation of coking ofcarbon-bear
3、ing material for subsequent testing such as modu-lus of rupture, slag testing, thermal conductivity, and thermalexpansion. Test Methods C831 is the specified method fortesting residual carbon.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are
4、 mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety a
5、nd health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use3.1 This practice
7、is useful for preparing coked specimensfor subsequent testing where the shapes desired cannot be fittedinto the coking box described in Test Methods C831.3.2 This practice can be very sensitive to heating rates incoking. Thus, strict adherence to the coking procedure isnecessary.4. Apparatus4.1 Furn
8、ace, gas-, oil-, or electric-fired, with heating cham-ber capable of receiving the coking box shown in Fig. 1.4.2 Box, stainless steel, essentially as shown in Fig. 1.5. Preparation of Samples5.1 Refer to the appropriate test method(s) or practice (forexample, Test Methods C133, Test Method C767, Te
9、st Meth-ods C831, Test Method C832, or Practice C874) for samplerequirements.6. Procedure6.1 Spread a 2-in. (51-mm) layer of dry metallurgical coke,passing a No. 12 (1.70-mm) sieve or a 10-mesh Tyler StandardSeries, over the bottom of the coking box.6.2 Push the sample tray through the coke until it
10、 rests onthe bottom.6.3 Set the specimens approximately 1 in. (25 mm) apart inthe tray, and uniformly spaced from the box sides.6.4 Place a protected thermocouple inside the box and nearthe center specimens for temperature control.6.5 Secure the lid on the box to prevent excessive leakage.6.6 Place
11、the loaded box in the furnace heating chamberwith the nitrogen inlet, thermocouple, and outlet pipe extend-ing through a bricked-up door.6.7 Purge the coking box with nitrogen containing no morethan 10 ppm (10 mg/L) oxygen and maximum dew point of76F (60C). Thereafter, provide sufficient flow of 3 t
12、o4ft3/h (24 to 32 mL/s) to maintain positive pressure within thebox throughout the entire heating and cooling period (Note 1).If desired, the gases and liquids escaping from the coking boxthrough the outlet pipe may be ignited outside the furnace.NOTE 1The purpose of the nitrogen is to prevent oxida
13、tion of thecarbonaceous residues within the brick.6.8 Heat the furnace so that the thermocouple within the boxregisters 250F (120C) after the first hour; then heat thefurnace so that the box is heated at a rate of 400 6 20F (2206 11C)/h to 1800 6 20F (980 6 11C).1This practice is under the jurisdict
