Test report 1 1 1 1 1 2 3 3 4 4 . 111 EN IS0 4610:2001 Foreword IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0 technical commit
23、tees. 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. IS0 collaborates closely with the In
24、ternational Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISOAEC Directives, Part 3. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bo
25、dies 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 International Standard may be the subject of patent rights. IS0 shall not be held responsible for
26、identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IS0 4610 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 9, Thermoplastic materials. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (IS0 4610:1977), which has been modified as follows: - emulsion-p
27、olymerized PVC has been included in the scope; - a second obligatory measurement has been included; - a precision statement, based on current test data, has been included. iv EN IS0 4610:2001 Plastics - Vinyl chloride homopolymer and copolymer resins - Sieve analysis using air-jet sieve apparatus 1
28、Scope This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the sieve retention and particle size distribution of preferably free-flowing vinyl chloride homopolymer and copolymer resins prepared by the “suspension”, “bulk” and “emulsion” polymerization processes. Control of these c
29、haracteristics can help to ensure consistency of supply and predictable processing behaviour. 2 Normative reference The following normative document contains provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent amend
30、ments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the normative document indicated below. For undated references, the latest editi
31、on of the normative document referred to applies. Members of IS0 and IEC maintain registers of currently valid International Standards. IS0 565, Test sieves - Metal wire cloth, perforated metal plate and electroformed sheet - Nominal sizes of openings 3 Term and definition For the purposes of this I
32、nternational Standard, the following term and definition applies. 3.1 sieve retention the percentage of the mass of resin remaining on the sieve after the test 4 Sampling Take a sample which is representative of the resin as delivered and of sufficient size to permit the determination of the size di
33、stribution. Generally, 25 g shall be used for each sieve analysis. For fine-particle resins, which for the purpose of this International Standard are defined as between 80 pm and 100 pm, smaller quantities are more convenient, for example 10 g. 5 Sample preparation Unless otherwise agreed, analyse t
34、he sample as received (.e. as delivered). If the sample is not analysed on the day of receipt, it shall be kept in a sealed container under ambient conditions. To prevent difficulty in sieving caused by electrostatic charging of the resin, add an antistatic agent, for example 0,5 % by mass of y-alum
35、ina, unless otherwise specified, to the resin at the start of the analysis. 1 EN IS0 4610:2001 6 Apparatus 6.1 Sieves, circular, having a sieving surface corresponding to a diameter of 200 mm. The sides and mesh of each sieve shall be made of metal. The mesh shall be as defined in IS0 565. The choic
36、e of mesh aperture depends on the requirements and the particle size distribution of the resin to be examined. NOTE A suitable method of cleaning sieves is to use an ultrasonic cleaning device containing water and a detergent. 6.2 Air-jet sieve apparatus (see Figure I), consisting of a casing design
37、ed to contain a sieve (6.1), in the lower part of which are an outlet, to which suction may be applied, and an air inlet. The casing shall be covered with a preferably transparent lid. 8 Key 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Sieve Casing Rotating jet Air inlet Manometer To vacuum Adjustable slot Lid (preferably trans
38、parent) Figure 1 - Air-jet sieve apparatus 2 EN IS0 4610:2001 The air inlet shall be fitted with a rotating jet consisting of a slot-shaped nozzle arranged radially beneath and very close to the sieve, so that when in rotation it blows air continuously through the sieve to keep the particles suspend
39、ed. The exhaust air pulls the finer particles through the sieve. The flow of air can be controlled by adjusting the working pressure, measured at the outlet; this may be achieved by means of an adjustable slot on the vacuum attachment. NOTE Apparatus of construction different from than that given in
40、 Figure 1 is allowed, provided that it has been verified that the results obtained are equivalent. 6.3 Timer (e.g. stopwatch), which indicates minutes and seconds and is equipped, if required, with a disconnecting switch for the motor of the sieve apparatus (6.2). 6.4 Balance, capable of being read
41、to 0,Ol g. 7 Procedure Securely fix a sieve (see 6.1) into the sieve apparatus (6.2). Weigh, to the nearest 0,l g, the material to be sieved, transfer it onto the sieve, and place the cover on the sieve apparatus. Regulate the flow of air to give a partial vacuum of 2,5 kPa (for example by means of
42、the adjustable slot on the vacuum attachment - see 6.2). Operate the motors of the sieve apparatus and the vacuum device for 4 min f 15 s for each sieving test. If during the sieving process a deposit becomes visible under the lid, sieving shall be interrupted and the deposit brushed down onto the s
43、ieve. The accuracy and precision of the method are not as good when the screen residue is small (less than 5 %, for example). In such cases it is of interest to extend the sieving time (to 10 min or even 15 min). However, for referee (in particular for designation) purposes, the value obtained after
44、 4 min f 15 s shall be used. After switching off the motors, weigh the residue on the sieve to the nearest 0,l g (for example by weighing the sieve and its contents and subtracting the tare). Repeat the procedure, as necessary, with sieves of different mesh aperture. 8 Expression of results Calculat
45、e the sieve retention R, as a percentage, from the equation ml R= - x 100 mo where mo is the mass, in grams, of sample used for the analysis; ml is the mass, in grams, of the residue on the sieve.
