42、ISO 13930:2015ISO 13930:2015(E)8 Procedure8.1 Number of determinations for the testCarry out the test as many times as required by the procedure in Annex A.8.2 ReductionTake, at random, one of the test portions prepared in 5.2 and place it in the reduction tube (6.2).Insert the reduction tube into t
43、he furnace (6.3). Close the reduction tube, connect the thermocouple, ensuring that its tip is in the middle of the reduction tube, and connect the gas supply system.By means of the rotation equipment (6.4), commence rotation of the reduction tube at 10 r/min 0,2 r/min.Pass a flow of N2through the t
44、est portion at a rate of 20 L/min. Heat the test portion, bring the temperature inside the reduction tube to 500 C within 45 min and stabilize the temperature within the next 15 min. If this requirement is not met, discontinue the test and start a new one.DANGER Carbon monoxide, hydrogen and the red
45、ucing gas, which contains carbon monoxide and hydrogen, are toxic and explosive, and therefore hazardous. Testing shall be carried out in a well-ventilated area or under a hood. Precautions should be taken for the safety of the operator, in accordance with the safety codes of each country.Introduce
46、the reducing gas at a flow rate of 20 L/min 1 L/min to replace the N2. After 60 min of reduction, stop the flow of the reducing gas, stop the rotation of the reduction tube and cool the test portion to a temperature below 350 C in the reduction tube under N2at a flow rate of 20 L/min. Then lift the
47、reduction tube from the furnace and cool the test portion to below 100 C, still under the flow of inert gas.8.3 SievingRemove all the material carefully from the reduction tube, scraping, if necessary, to remove any material adhering to the tube wall.Determine and register the mass of the reduced ma
48、terial (m0) and sieve it with care on 6,30 mm, 3,15 mm and 500 m sieves. Determine and record the mass of each fraction retained on the 6,30 mm (m1), 3,15 mm (m2) and 500 m (m3) sieves. The dry weight of the dust trapped in the dust collector, and material lost during sieving, shall be considered to
49、 be part of the 500 m fraction.NOTE 1 Equivalent mechanical sieving can be used provided that preliminary test programme is carried out according to ISO 3086, the hand sieving being the reference method.NOTE 2 Sieving results are influenced by the sieve shaker characteristics. Therefore, in cases in which two or more laboratories need to compare their results for commercial or research purposes, they should adjust the sieving conditions until they obtain identical results for th
