BS EN ISO 8620:1996 is a standard that provides a method for conducting sieve analysis on phenolic resin powder using an air-jet sieve apparatus. This standard is specifically applicable to the characterization and quality control of phenolic resin powders, which are used in various applications, including as binders in composite materials and molding compounds.
Sieve analysis is a common technique in materials testing, and it involves the separation of particles based on size. In the context of phenolic resin powder, this standard outlines the procedure for determining the particle size distribution of the powder.
Here are the key aspects covered by this standard:
Objective: The primary objective of this standard is to provide a standardized method for performing sieve analysis on phenolic resin powder to determine its particle size distribution.
Apparatus: The standard specifies the equipment and apparatus required for the test, including the air-jet sieve apparatus, which is used to separate particles based on their size as air is passed through the sieve.
Procedure: It outlines the step-by-step procedure for conducting the sieve analysis, including the preparation of the sample, the operation of the air-jet sieve apparatus, and the measurement of the particle sizes that pass through or are retained on the sieves.
Calculation: The standard may include instructions on how to calculate and express the particle size distribution based on the test results.
Reporting: It may provide guidelines on reporting the results of the sieve analysis, including any relevant conditions or parameters used during the test.
Sieve analysis is an essential technique in various industries where the particle size distribution of materials is critical to their performance. This standard ensures that sieve analysis of phenolic resin powder is conducted in a consistent and standardized manner, allowing for accurate characterization and quality control of the material.
