17、LASS 1 3.3 Loss on ivnition - The loss on ignition of Type I zirconia (powder), either Grade A or Grade B, shall not be more than O. 50 percent when determined in accordance with 4.5.5. 3.4 Particle size of powder - Unless otherwise specified, the Type I zirconia (powder), either Grade A or Grade B,
18、 shall conform to the particle size req 2 for diameter and conformance to 3.6 for configuration. 4.5.2 Straightness - The sample rods selected in accordance with 4.3.2.1 shall be measured to determine conformance to 3.7. The measurement shall be taken by placing a rod on a straight edge and measurin
19、g the greatest distance and the mas- hum depth of arc between the straight length edge of the rod and the straight edge. At the option of the supplier any other procedure such as a warpage gage may be employed for measuring of straightness. This is essentially an adjustable slope table containing th
20、ree knife edges adjusted to accommodate the various lengths of rod. A bar is attached over the knife edges which can be raised or lowered to set the allowable straightness tolerances by means of stop and feeler gages. Rods are rolled down the table to pass under the tolerance bar. Rods which a0 not
21、pass freely under the bar shall be rejected. 4.5.3 Squareness of ends - The sample rods selected in accordance with 4.3.2.1 shall be measured to determine conformance to 3.8. The squareness of the - .- 7 -* Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS
22、-,-,-MIL-2-81572 (AS) ends shall be measured for any deviation of the end area from a straight line at right-angle to the length and touching the corner. . 4.5.4 Chemical composition - The samples selected in accordance with 4.3.1.2 or 4.3.2.2 shall be tested using suitable standard wet chemical or
23、spectro- graphic methods to determine conformance to 3.2 and the chemical requirements of Table I. In case of dispute, the chemical analysis by wet chemical methods shall be the basis for acceptance. 4.5.5 Loss on ignition - The samples selected in accordance with 4.3.1.2 shall be tested for loss on
24、 ignition to determine conformance to 3.3. Samples shall be dried for 2 hours in an oven at 105“ to 110“ C (221“ to 230“ F) and cooied in a desiccator to,room temperature. About 10 grams of material shall be weighed immediately to the nearest thousandth of a gram upon removal from the desiccator. Th
25、e specimen material shall be heated to constant weight in an electric muffie furnace at 900“ to 1000“ C (1652“ to 1832“ F). The ignition loss shall be calculated from the loss in weight. 4.5.6 Particle size of Type I material - 4.5.6.1 Class 1 - The sample of zirconia powder selected in accordance w
26、ith 4.3.1.2 shall be tested for particle size distribution by sieve analysis using the pro- cedure specified in MILSTD-1233, Method 300, except that the shaking device shall be operated for 15 minutes, or as specified in ASTM B 214. The amounts of material retained on the sieves and bottom pan shall
27、 be weighed, Weigh out accurately O. 1 to O. 2 gram of the powdered zirconium oxide from the pan (portion that passed through the No. 325 sieve) into a beaker. Add 4 to 5 drops of a 4 percent tetra sodium pyrophosphate solution (Na4P207 . 10H20), and 250 milliliters of a 1 percent sodium chloride so
28、lution (NaCl), to the material in the beaker. The beaker and contents shall then be placed on a Coulter Electrical Sensing-Zone Particle Analyzer. Counts shall be performed at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40 microns. The direct frequency data shalI be converted by plotting the particle diameter in
29、 microns versus the weight per- cent above stated size (cumulative weight) in order to calculate the size distribution of the material which passed through the No. 325 sieve. Calculate and correct the final results to determine confoirnance to Table II. At the option of the supplier, other equipment
30、 may be used for determining the precise size measurements of. the fine powder if capable of determining particle sizes between 2 to 50 microns. 4.5.6.2 Class 2 - The sample of zirconia powder selected in accordance with 4.3.1.2 shall be tested for particle Bize distribution by sieve analysis using
31、the pro- cedure specified in MILSTD-1233,. Method 300, except that the shaking device shall be operated for 15 minutes or as specified in ASTM B 214. The amounts of materials re- tained on the sieves and bottom pans shall be weighed to calculate percentage to deter- mine conformance to Table II. 8 P

33、 The distance between supports shall not be less than 2 inches When testing rods with slotted configuration, random slot orientation shall be wed. In the calculation of modulus of rupture, the diameter of the specimen shall be calculated on the basis of a solid rod, neglecting corrections for center
34、 hole or rod slots if such configurations are used. 4.5.8 Bulk density - Samples of rods selected in accordance with 4.3.2.3 shall be tested for bulk density to determine conformance to 3.10. Each test specimen shall weigh from 2 to 25 grams. Test specimens shall be dried for 2 hours in an oven at 1
35、05 to 110“ C (221O to 230“ F) and then cooled in a desiccator to room temperature. Each specimen shall be weighed immediately to the nearest thousandth of a gram upon removal from the desiccator. The volume of the rod shall be calculated from actual rod dimensions, that is, solid shape value les$ an
36、y applicable hole or slot volume if such configuration is used. The bulk density of a specimen is the quotient of its dry weight in grams divided by the exterior volume in cubic centimeters. 4.5.9 Porosity - Samples selected in accordance with 4.3.2.3 shall be tested for total rod porosity to determ
37、ine conformance to 3.11 in accordance with ASTM D 116. The specimen used for bulk density (see 4.5.8) may be used for total porosity. 4.5.10 Grain size - Samples selected in accordance with 4.3.2.3 shall be tested for size of the grains in the rod to determine conformance to 3.12. A thin specimen of
38、 the rod material shall be sectioned and examined under a petro- graphic microscope. 4.6 Rejection and retests - 4.6.1 Rejection - When one or more test specimens fails to meet any of the tests reqiiired by this specification, the lot represented by the specimen or spec- imens SW be subjected to rej
39、ection, except as otherwise provided by MIL-STD-105. 4.6.2 Resubmitted lots - Paragraph 6.4 of MIL-STD-105 shall apply except that a resubmitted lot shall be inspected using tightened inspection. For visual ex- amination where the original acceptance number was zero, a sample size represented by the
40、 next highsr sample size code letter shall be chosen. 5.
