Summary of Test Method3.1 Pour density is determined by measuring the mass ofcarbon black in a known volume.4. Significance and Use4.1 Pour density is a function of the degree of compaction
6、during pelletization. It is strongly influenced by and inverselyproportional to structure (OAN). Pour density of carbon blackis useful for estimating the weight-to-volume relationship forcertain applications, such as automatic batch loading systems,and for estimating weights of bulk shipments.5.

Theprecision parameters should not be used for acceptance/rejection testing of any group of materials without documen-tation that they are applicable to those particular
17、 materials andthe specific testing protocols that include this test method.10.3 A Type 1 interlaboratory precision program was con-ducted in 1994. Both repeatability and reproducibility repre-sent short-term testing conditions. Nine laboratories testedthree carbon blacks (Materials A, B, and C) twic

Acceptable difference values were not mea-sured.10.4 The results of the precision calculations are given inTable 1, with the materials arranged in ascending “mean level”order.10.5 The precision for the pooled val
19、ues for pour densitymay be expressed as follows:10.5.1 RepeatabilityThe repeatability, (r), of the pourdensity has been established as 1.7 % (pooled). Two single testresults (or determinations) that differ by more than 1.7 % mustbe considered suspect and dictate that some appropriate inves-tigative
20、action be taken.10.5.2 ReproducibilityThe reproducibility, (R),ofthepour density has been established as 3.7 % (pooled). Twosingle test results (or determinations) produced in separatelaboratories that differ by more than 3.7 % must be consideredsuspect and dictate that some appropriate investigativ
21、e ortechnical/commercial action be taken.10.6 BiasIn test method terminology, bias is the differ-ence between an average test value and the reference (true) testproperty value. Reference values do not exist for this testmethod since the value or level of the test property isexclusively defined by th
22、e test method. Bias, therefore, cannotbe determined.11.
