Section 3.0 shows the general arrangement of BS 1902 and lists the Sections of Part 3. _ _-_ _. therefore, it is desirable to adhere to this relat
6、ionship as closely as possible. In the British Standard series of sieves, the linear aperture of each sieve is approximately v2 times that of the next smaller sieve, Where a short range of apertures is required, therefpre, a regular series can be obtained by taking every SiEWe. Simiiarly, if a wide
7、range is required, a regular series (with a linear aperture ratio of 4:l) can be obtained by taking every second sieve. 5.2 If the procedure described in clause 8 is performed, the following additional apparatus is required. -1. scope This Section describes the procedures used in the sieve analysis
8、of refractow samples. This analysis is carried out to determine the particle size distribution of granular materials, which is a major factor determining their packing density. 2.

A guide to the sample weights required is given in BS 812 : Part 1. 6.2 When large samples are involved, the use of 300 mm
11、diameter sieves is recommended. Alternatively, the sample may be divided and sieved in several operations. 7.

Principle The analysis is carried out by passing the material through a series of sieves of progressively decreasing aperture, so that .it isdivided i
14、nto fractions that are defined by the apertures of the sieves used. 5. Apparatus 6.1 The following apparatus .Is required. 6.1.1 Test sieves, complying with the requirements of BS 410. NOTE. Refractory materials vary io widely in their gradin5 that It iultable for all materials. Ideally, the ratio b
15、etween the apertures of ruccersive sieves in a series should be constant. This relationship Is .particularly important If the percentage retained on each sieve is to be reported, and possibly illustrated graphically, rince the fraction retained on any deve will deqqnd on the difference in aperture b
16、etween it and the precedlnd sieve. In selecting a series of sieves, % ir not posslble to recommend any one series of sieves that wlll be 8. Preliminary extraction procedure for materials containing oil or tar . 8.1 Warm the sample in an evaporating dish and break it .down with a spatula, taking care
17、 not to crush any of the grains. Place the sample in filter thimbles in one or more Soxhlets. 8.2 Carry out the extraction with boiling toluene, an electric hotplate or a heating mantle being used as a means of heating. The extraction is complete when the toluene shhoned over is colourless. NOTE. To
18、luene has a moderate toxicity when inhaled or taken .orally. However, commercial grades are frequently contaminated -with small amounts of benzene,a carcinogenic substance. It is therefore recommended that toluene in accordance with ES 805 is used. Grades 1,2 or 3 (see ES 805) may be used. The usual
19、 precautions with regard to the flammability hazards or jorganicsolvents and vapoun should also be observed. Protective *clothing and goggles should be provided, and the working area maintained at a concentration of less than 200 p.p.m. toluene:- 8.3 Dry the thimbles and contents in air and then tra

Test procedure for materials containing clay NOTE. A procedure for the determination
21、 of clay, fine silt and fine dust in fine or coarse aggregate is described in BS 812 : Part 1. The simplified procedure* described in 9.1 to 9.8 may be suitable for the type of material encountered in the refractories industry. Where separate determination of the clay content is not required, the sa
22、mple is treated as described in 9.9. 9.1 First dry the sample to constant massat 100 “C to 105 OC and determine its mass, then boil it gently in a porcelain basin with 750 ml of distilled or demineralized water to which has been added 5 ml of ammonia (d = 0.88). There is less risk of bumping if the
23、water is heated to boiling point before the sample is added. 9.2 Most samples form too great a depth of deposit during sedimentation (see 9.3) and need to be reduced in bulk at this stage in a preliminary sieving operation. Therefore, after boiling with ammonia, transfer the sample to a sieve to sep
24、arate most of the solid material from the clay suspension. This sieue shall be chosen so that the height of the material that settles out in the cylindrical sedimentation jar does not exceed 1 O mm. Set the residue on this sieve aside until the sedimentation has been carried outt. Treat the suspensi
25、on passing through this sieve as described in 9.3. 9.3 Cool the suspension and transfer it to a cylindrical glass sedimentation jar, about 200 mm deep and from 100 mm to 125 mm in internal diameter, suitably marked to indicate 25 mm and 150 mm depths of liquid. - A suitable apparatus is illustrated
26、in figure 1. Adjust the depth of immersion of the siphon tube so that it removes the liquid down to the 25 mm level. Add water to raise the level to the 150 mm mark and stir.the suspension- thoroughly. Allow the sample to settle for 10 min and remove the water, with the material still remaining in s
27、uspension, by means of the siphon tube. NOTE 1. It is essential that the top of the settled deposit should be below this level and that stirring is stopped in such a way that the material settles to form an approximately flat bed, avoiding the formation of a cone. NOTE 2. The presence of an apprecia
28、ble amount of clay in suspension raises the viscosity of water and consequently reduces the rate of settling of solid particles in it. If only 5 min settling time was allowed for the first sedimentation, some particles which in clear water would have passed the 25 mm level would still be above that
29、level and would be removed. The preliminary sedimentations with a settling time of 10 min should therefore always be included when testing materials containing an appreciable amount of clay. 9.4 Again add water to raise the level to the 150 mm mark, stir, allow the suspension to settle for 10 min, a
30、nd again remove the upper 125 mm of liquid using the siphon. 9.5 Repeat the procedure described in 9.4 a number of times, but with the settling time reduced to 5 min, until the upper 125 mm of water is clear at the end of the 5 min period; Finally, again remove the upper 125 mm of water using the si
31、phon. NOTE 1. The settling time of 5 min is the time required for a spherical particle of diameter 0.02 mm and density 2.65 g/cm3 to settle 150 mm in water at 15C. Since the viscosity of water decreases with increasing temperature, a particle settles more rapidly in warm than in cold water. For accu
32、rate work, therefore, water at 15 OC should be used. NOTE 2. It should be noted, however, that the determination of the clay fraction by reference to the settling time of particles is somewhat arbitrary, first since spherical particles are assumed, and secondly since the apparent clay fraction will
33、include any material, other than clay, present in the form of particles of such density and size that their rate of settling is less than that of a spherical particle 0.02 mm in diameter and 2.65 g/cm3 in density (they will be siphoned off with the particles of clay). In theory, the maximum size of
34、such particles erroneously determined as clay will be smaller than 0.02 mm if their density is greater than 2.65 g/cm3, or larger than 0.02 mm if their density is less than 2.65 g/cm3. 9.6 Return the sample and water to the porcelain basin and allow it to stand for 2 min, after which pour off as muc
35、h as possible of the water without loss of granular material. Combine the residue with the residue retained on the primary sieve and dry it to constant mass at 100 “C. 9.7 The difference from the original sample mass is the amount of clay grade; report this as a percentage of the original dry mass o
36、f the sample. In addition to clay, the clay grade will also include fine quartz and other minerals and any substances soluble in water. 9.8 The combined residue shall then be treated bithe sieving procedure described in BS 81 2 : Part 1. 9.9 In the case of samples from which clay is to be removed wi
37、thgut any determination of the clay content, boil the sample in water to which ammonia has been added, as described in 9.1. Following this treatment, transfer the whole of the sample to the finest sieve to be used, wash the residue on the sieve and dry and weigh the portion retained. This residue sh
38、all then be sieved as described in BS 81 2 : Part 1. 200 approx JI - _ . :.:.:.:.a. : :. . ,. ._ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . -i00-125 4 6% All dimensions are in millimetres. Figure 1.

Reporting of results 10.1 The particle size distribution shall be reported as either: (al if, for exam
40、ple, 10.4 % of the sample passes a 150 pm sieve and is retained on a 105 pm sieve, as (bJ as a cumulative grading, in which all the sample that does not pass a particular sieve is reported as a percentage against the sieve number. When this procedure is adopted, the fact should be clearly stated. NO
41、TE. An advantage of this method of reporting is that the shape of the graphical plot of cumulative percentage against aperture size is unaffected by irregularities in the series of sieves used. 10.2 When the clay fraction has been determined, report the material passing the finest sieve used after t
42、he removal of the clay as - 150 pm t 105 pm, 10.4 %;or -63 pm t 20 pm. BS 1902 : Section 3.3 : 1981 11.
