ASTM D1513 – Standard Test Method for Carbon Black, Pelleted—Pour Density
Description:
Significance and Use
4.1 Pour density is a function of the degree of compaction during pelletization. It is strongly influenced by and inversely proportional to structure (OAN). Pour density of carbon black is useful for estimating the weight-to-volume relationship for certain applications, such as automatic batch loading systems, and for estimating weights of bulk shipments.
Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the pour density of pelleted carbon blacks.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
