DD CEN/TS 16305:2012CEN/TS 16305:2012 (E) 4 Introduction A standard method for the determination of the dust content of gra
20、nulated liming materials is required to indicate the stability and quality of the product and to simulate the dust produced during handling and storage. A rotating device is used to simulate the abrasion caused by handling. DD CEN/TS 16305:2012CEN/TS 16305:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard s
21、pecifies a method for the determination of the amount of dust in granulated liming materials, both before and after simulated handling conditions. This method applies to all granulated and screened liming materials. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the

It shall be capable of stopping after a pre-determ
28、ined number of revolutions. 5.2 Balance, capable of weighing to the nearest 0,01 g. 5.3 Sieving machine, capable of horizontal and vertical motion on a single or a nest of sieves. 5.4 Sieve, 1 mm metal wire cloth sieve according to ISO 565 and ISO 3310-1. NOTE Additional sieve sizes may be used when
29、 determining a range of size fractions within a sample. 6 Sampling Sampling is not part of the method specified in this document. A recommended sampling method is given in EN 1482-1. Sample preparation shall be carried out in accordance with EN 1482-2. Use 2 kg of material to determine both part 1 a
30、nd part 2. Use 1 kg if either part 1 or part 2 is to be determined separately. NOTE Handling soft materials during sample preparation can influence the dust content of the sample. Care should be taken when handling and preparing the samples. 7 Procedure 7.1 Determination of the amount of material in
31、itially passing 1 mm 7.1.1 Weigh 300 g 1 g to the nearest 0,01 g of the sampled material. 7.1.2 Place on the 1 mm sieve and mechanically sieve for 1 min at frequency 50 Hz to 100 Hz. 7.1.3 Weigh the residue remaining on the 1 mm sieve to the nearest 0,01 g and record the mass of material passing 1 m
32、m. Retain the material remaining on the sieve and store for further testing (see 7.2.3). 7.1.4 Repeat the operation three times. Calculate and record the mean of the results. 7.2 Determination of the amount of material passing 1 mm after simulated handling conditions 7.2.1 General NOTE Sometimes, th
33、e initial content of dust of the sample received is not representative of the product itself because of its possible alteration during transport. If the received product initially contains a significant amount of dust, removing existing dust before abrasion may alter the results, because lower amoun
34、ts will fall down in the cylinder. It is the reason why the method includes two parts for measurement: with or without initial dust, but always with the same amount in the MRD. If initial content of dust is considered as representative of the product, part 1 is to be preferred. If initial content of
35、 dust in the sample is suspicious, part 2 would be preferred, but the final result (A4), may always be considered as the specific production of dust due to this conventional handling. DD CEN/TS 16305:2012CEN/TS 16305:2012 (E) 8 7.2.2 Part 1: Handling with initial dust 7.2.2.1 Weigh 250 g 1 g to the
36、nearest 0,01 g of the original sample, including initial dust. 7.2.2.2 Place in the MRD cylinder and rotate for exactly 450 revolutions. 7.2.2.3 Recover all the material from the MRD. 7.2.2.4 Place on a 1 mm sieve according to EN 1235 and mechanically sieve for 1 min at frequency 50 Hz to 100 Hz. 7.

Calculate and record the mean of the results. 7.2.3 Part 2: Handling without initial dust 7.2.3.1 Weigh 250 g 1 g to the nearest 0,01 g of the material
