2、ntheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers a procedure to measure a carbonblack structure property known as Void Volume at meanpressure.Compressed void volumes are obtained
3、 by measuringthe compressed volume of a weighed sample in a cylindricalchamber as a function of pressure exerted by a movable piston.A profile of void volume as a function of pressure provides ameans to assess carbon black structure at varying levels ofdensity and aggregate reduction.1.2 The values
