1、Designation:D734813Standard Test Methods forLoss on Ignition(LOI)of Solid Combustion Residues1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7348;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A numbe
2、r in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 These test methods cover the determination of the massloss from solid combustion residues upon heating in an air oroxygen atmosphere to a prescr
3、ibed temperature.The mass losscan be due to the loss of moisture,carbon,sulfur,and so forth,from the decomposition or combustion of the residue.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purpor

9、minology3.1 DefinitionsFor definitions of terms used in these testmethods,refer to Terminology D121.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 Loss on ignition(LOI)is determined by measuring theloss in mass of the test specimen when heated under controlledconditions of temperature,time,atmosphere,specimen mass,and
10、 equipment specifications.The LOI can be determined bymeasuring the mass loss in a single procedure or in a two-stepprocedure in which mass losses,equivalent to the moisture andash values of the test specimen,are determined.5.Significance and Use5.1 LOI refers to the mass loss of a combustion residu
11、ewhenever it is heated in an air or oxygen atmosphere to hightemperatures.In the cement industry,use of the term LOInormally refers to a mass loss in a sample heated to 950C.Tocombustion engineers,the term LOI normally refers to masslosses in samples heated to temperatures normally less than950C.The
12、se test methods establish a procedure for determin-ing LOI values for combustion residues heated to 750C or950C.LOI values from these test methods can be used byindustries that utilize combustion residues in various processesand products.5.2 If the solid combustion residue is heated to estimate thec
