BS EN 480-8:2012EN 480-8:2012 (E) 4 Introduction The procedure in EN 480-8:1996 has been found to be unreliable for some types of admixture such as lignosulfonates and sugars. The procedure has now been rev
20、ised to include drying to constant weight using duplicate specimens with a requirement for maximum difference between results. Some materials used in admixtures are deliquescent so the option of using a bottle with a stopper to be inserted during weighing is included. Some liquid admixtures form a s
21、kin during drying which prevents complete drying. In these circumstances EN 934-1 permits an alternative test procedure to be used. BS EN 480-8:2012EN 480-8:2012 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard describes a method for determining the conventional dry material content of an admixture. 2 Principle
22、 A sample of admixture is dried in an oven at (105 3) C until a constant weight is reached. In the case of a liquid admixture this method shall be used to characterize the dry material content. For a powder admixture this method shall be used to determine the actual mass of the dried powder. NOTE Th
23、is method is not suitable for determining the absolute solids content. 3 Apparatus 3.1 Weighing bottle, squat form, wide-mouthed with ground glass stopper or evaporating basin with a flat bottom and approximately 75 mm diameter 45 mm depth. 3.2 Desiccator, containing an efficient desiccant. 3.3 Dryi
24、ng Oven with forced ventilation, thermostatically controlled at (105 3) C, fitted with a temperature indicating device. The required temperature range shall be maintained throughout all parts of the oven used for this test. NOTE Forced ventilation is necessary to ensure uniform temperature throughou
25、t the oven. 3.4 Balance, with a resolution of 0,5 mg. 4 Procedure Heat the weighing bottle with the stopper removed, or the evaporating basin, for at least one hour in a drying oven at (105 3) C. After cooling for 30 min in a desiccator weigh the weighing bottle with stopper inserted, or the evapora
26、ting basin. Repeat this procedure until the mass of the vessel is constant within a range of 1 mg. Spread (2,0 0,2) g of the sample in a uniform layer on the bottom of the vessel and weigh to the nearest 1 mg). NOTE 1 In order to obtain reproducible results it is essential that the mass of the dried
27、 residue or of the dried powder will be significant in relation to the mass of the vessel and the mass of the sample. Heat the weighing bottle and contents and the stopper with stopper removed, or the evaporating basin and contents, in the oven at (105 3) C for a minimum of 1 h. Insert the stopper a
28、nd transfer the weighing bottle, or evaporating basin, to the desiccator. Allow to cool in the desiccator with the stopper removed. Insert the stopper and weigh the weighing bottle, or evaporating basin, to the nearest 1 mg. Repeat the heating for at least 30 min, allow to cool in the desiccator and
29、 again weigh to the nearest 1 mg. Repeat the heating and cooling until two successive weighings differ by no more than 2 mg. Record the lower mass. Repeat the weighing and drying procedure using a fresh specimen from the same sample in order to obtain duplicate results. BS EN 480-8:2012EN 480-8:2012
30、 (E) 6 NOTE 2 If this test method is not suitable, the manufacturer should specify a documented alternative test method (see EN 934-1). 5 Results The following formula shall be used to calculate the results: Dry material content %100=MRX by mass (1) where R is the mass of the residue in grams; M is
31、the mass of admixture in grams; X is the dry material content in percent by mass. For an average dry material content 20 % the difference between the two results shall not exceed average dry material content multiplied by 0,04. For an average dry material content 20 % the difference between the two
32、results shall not exceed 0,80 % by mass. If these differences are exceeded duplicate tests shall be repeated until the results agree within the maximum permitted difference. 6 Test report This shall include at least the following: a) a reference to this document (EN 480-8); b) name or code of admixt
33、ure tested (with information related to its marking); c) date of the test; d) name of the laboratory; e) name of the operator; f) type of vessel in which specimens dried; g) origin of the sample and date when taken; h) dry material content as mean of duplicate test results to 0,1 % by mass.
