22、TS 17188:2018 (E) 4 Introduction Particle size distribution and related parameters are key measurements for product characterization of size-reduced materials, such as granulates and powders derived from End-of-life Tyres (ELTs). To obtain an accurate particle size distribution, a representative sam
23、ple of the material to be tested will be taken according to the principle that every particle of the sample that represents the lot will have an equal probability of being included in the sample. Sampling criteria to assess characteristics of granulates and powders at different stages of a productio
24、n process by size reduction of End-of-life tyres are given in prEN 14243-2:2017, Clause 5. When the lot to be characterized is a big-bag, particular attention has to be given in order to obtain a representative sample(s) because of the tendency of the stored material to segregate over time with the
25、smaller particles settling in the lower part of the big-bag. PD CEN/TS 17188:2018CEN/TS 17188:2018 (E) 5 1 Scope This document specifies a method for obtaining a sample of rubber granulates or powders derived from End-of-life tyres which have been stored in big-bags. Several sample increments at dif
26、ferent levels within the big-bag are obtained, which represent the average particle size distribution within the big-bag. From these sample increments, a representative sample is derived. 2 Normative references The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of the

31、ened and closed for point sampling of a predetermined sampling depth. 4 Principle The sample is created by mixing several increments removed with a sampling tool at least at three levels and at least at one location on each level, as specified in Clause 6. 5 Apparatus 5.1 Sampling tool Tool used to
32、remove the same quantity of material, greater than or equal to 150 g, from different heights within a big-bag. It shall be shaped to allow the operator to reach different heights by simply pressing on the tool and introducing it into the big-bag. Its opening shall be wider than three times the size
33、of the largest element expected. The tool should be preferably used by piercing through the fabric. Upon removal, the bag may be sealed with tape. The tool shall be closed to prevent contamination. PD CEN/TS 17188:2018CEN/TS 17188:2018 (E) 6 5.2 Balance The scales shall be accurate to 0,1 g. 5.3 Con
34、tainer The containers are used to recover the increments. The container shall be large enough to hold all three increments to make the combined sample and to allow for mixing the combined sample to make it homogeneous. 6 Procedure a) Take the increments from different heights: the mass of the combin
35、ed sample shall be greater than or equal to 450 g. At least three increments shall be taken at different heights, as specified in Clause 4. Two options are available: 1) Scheme 1: according to the indications of Figure 1) samples can be taken at the following points: P1 and/or P4: at the top (approx
36、imately 1/4 from the surface); P2 and/or P5: in the middle; P3 and/or P6: at the bottom of the big-bag (approximately 1/4 from the bottom). Key A front B back Figure 1 Position of increments for portions 2) Scheme 2: if an appropriate tool is available (see Annex A), it is also possible to take samp
37、les from the centre axis of big-bag (see Figure 2) then three increments shall be taken at different heights (see Figure 2).

38、o make up the combined samples; c) weight the sample. The tool shall be able to collect at different levels without contamination. The chamber of the tool shall be in the closed position when removing the tool from the big-bag in order to prevent contamination. Each user may choose his tool accordin
39、g to Annex A but the type of tool shall be defined in the sampling scheme. 7 Sampling scheme The sampling scheme shall contain the following information: a) the name of the sampler, the place where the sample was taken and the date when it was taken; b) a full identification of the sample (reference
40、); c) a full identification of the big-bag from which the sample was taken; d) the mass of the sample (g); e) the name and the volume of the sampling tool (ml); f) the number and position of the primary portions within the big-bag; g) the type of ELT specified, if available; h) the reference to this
41、 Technical Specification; i) the report on all the operating conditions not specified in this Technical Specification, or any optional operations; j) the report on any possible incidents that might have affected the representative nature of the sample.

42、ex A (normative) Characteristics of the Sampling tool for bulk goods As defined in this Technical Specification, a suitable sampling tool according to Clause 3 shall be chosen capable of collecting samples from a defined height within a big-bag. Different sampling tools are indicated here below and
43、the tool of choice shall fulfil the following criteria: if sample collection is from the top of the big-bag: sampling tool with a screw at the tip to facilitate sample penetration. Once the tool has penetrated to the correct level in the big-bag for sample collection, the chamber is opened to allow
44、for the material to flow into the chamber. Upon completion, the chamber shall be closed and remain in the closed position during tool extraction. This is important to prevent possible contamination from other levels in the big-bag. Figure A.1 Sample collection from the top of the big-bag If sample c
45、ollection is from the side of the big-bag: the sampling tools should be a lance with a sharp tip capable of piercing the big-bag fabric and long enough to penetrate half the width of the big-bag. After sample extraction the fabric should be sealed. Figure A.2 Sample collection from the side of the b
46、ig-bag The volume of the chamber shall be at least 300 ml.
