1、Designation: D3724 01 (Reapproved 2012)Standard Specification forSynthetic Brown Iron Oxide Pigment1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3724; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revisio
2、n. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers the pigments commerciallyknown as synthetic pure brown iron oxides and blends. Thesepigments are suitabl
3、e for use in paints and coatings. Methodsof manufacture are:1.1.1 Precipitation of iron salts.1.1.2 Calcination of precipitated iron oxides.1.1.3 Blends of synthetic red, yellow, and black iron oxides.1.1.4 Blends of synthetic red, yellow, and black iron oxidesplus the addition of carbon black to a
4、maximum of 5.0 %.Small amounts of carbon black are added to obtain tintingcolors not obtainable when synthetic brown iron oxide orcarbon black are used singly.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.
