The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees
17、. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the Intern
18、ational Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Sta
19、ndards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subj
20、ect of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 3923-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 119, Powder metallurgy, Subcommittee SC 2, Sampling and testing methods for powders (including powders for hardmetals). This third edition canc
21、els and replaces the second edition (ISO 3923-1:1979), which has been technically revised. ISO 3923 consists of the following parts, under the general title Metallic powders Determination of apparent density: Part 1: Funnel method Part 2: Scott volumeter method BS EN ISO 3923-1:2010INTERNATIONAL STA
22、NDARD ISO 3923-1:2008(E) ISO 2008 All rights reserved 1Metallic powders Determination of apparent density Part 1: Funnel method 1 Scope This part of ISO 3923 specifies the funnel method for the determination of the apparent density of metallic powders under standardized conditions. The method is int
23、ended for metallic powders that flow freely through a 2,5 mm diameter orifice. It may, however, be used for powders that flow with difficulty through a 2,5 mm diameter orifice but flow through a 5 mm diameter orifice. Methods for the determination of the apparent density of powders that will not flo
24、w through a 5 mm diameter orifice are specified in ISO 3923-2. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document
25、 (including any amendments) applies. ISO 3923-2, Metallic powders Determination of apparent density Part 2: Scott volumeter method 3 Principle Measurement of the mass of a certain quantity of powder, which in a loose condition exactly fills a cup of known volume. The loose condition is obtained by u
26、sing, when filling the cup, a funnel placed at a determined distance above the cup. The ratio between the mass and the volume represents the apparent density. 4 Symbols and designation The symbols and designations used in this International Standard are defined in Table 1.

28、and the other an orifice of diameter 5 mm; see Figures 1 and 2, respectively. 5.2 Cylindrical cup, having a capacity of 25 cm3 0,03 cm3and an internal diameter of 28 mm 0,5 mm. A cup with the same capacity and with an internal diameter of 30 mm 1 mm is also acceptable. 28 mm 0,5 mm is however the fi
29、rst option when new equipment is manufactured. The cup and funnels should be made of a non-magnetic, corrosion-resistant, metallic material having sufficient wall thickness and hardness to avoid distortion and excessive wear. The inner surfaces of the cup and funnels should be polished. 5.3 Balance,
30、 of sufficient capacity, capable of weighing the test sample to an accuracy of 0,01 g. 5.4 Stand and horizontal vibration-free base, to support the cup and funnel, the stand holding the orifice of the funnel 25 mm above the top surface of the cup and coaxially with it; see Figure 3.

33、me to allow the determination to be carried out on three test portions. 6.2 In general, the powder should be tested in the as-received condition. In certain instances, the powder may be dried. However, if the powder is susceptible to oxidation, the drying shall take place in a vacuum or in an inert
34、gas. If the powder contains volatile substances, it shall not be dried. 7 Procedure 7.1 Pour the test portion of powder into the funnel with the 2,5 mm orifice and, from that, directly into the cylindrical cup, until this is completely filled and the powder flows over. Level the powder in one operat
35、ion with a non-magnetic straight-edge without compressing it, and take care not to jar or vibrate the cup. 7.2 If the powder does not flow through this funnel, use the funnel with the 5 mm orifice. If the powder still does not flow, it is allowable to initiate flow by poking once with a 1 mm wire fr
36、om the top of the funnel. The wire shall not enter the cup. 7.3 After levelling the powder, tap the cup to settle the powder, in order to avoid spilling it during transport. Make sure that there are no adhering particles on the exterior of the cup. 7.4 Determine the mass of the powder to the nearest
37、 0,01 g. 7.5 Carry out the determinations on three test portions.
