1、Designation:D8414/D8414M21Standard Test Method forMeasurement of Jet Cup Attrition Index of CatalyticMaterials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D8414/D8414M;the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or,in the case of revision,the year
2、of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 The jet cup attrition test is applicable to fluid catalyticcracking(FCC)catalysts,catalyst additives,and catalyticmateri
3、als.1.2 Applications for other powdered catalysts have beenreported in the literature.The round robin test samples in-cluded two FCC catalysts and one powdered alumina.1.3 UnitsThe values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard.Thevalues stated in each
4、 system are not necessarily exact equiva-lents;therefore,to ensure conformance with the standard,eachsystem shall be used independently of the other,and valuesfrom the two systems shall not be combined.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its
5、 use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principle

10、 and causes particles tocollide with each other and the walls of the jet cup.Theseparticle-to-particle and particle-to-wall interactions cause finesto form via attrition.In addition,weaker particles will fractureand form fines.4.3 The jet cup is attached to a fines disengagement cham-ber that allows
11、 particles less than 20 m 787-in.to pass intoa fines collection assembly.NOTE1The fines disengagement chamber is based on the AMINCO-Roller air elutriation particle size analyzer,historically used to measurethe 0-20 micron fraction in catalyst.4.4 The JCI is calculated from the mass of fines collect
12、edand is numerically equivalent to the“weight percent of finesgenerated per hour”under test conditions.5.Significance and Use5.1 The jet cup attrition test will provide an estimate of therelative attrition resistance of fluid catalytic cracking(FCC)catalyst,catalyst additives,and catalytic materials
13、.5.2 The test is designed to simulate the attrition a catalyst oradditive undergoes in a fluid catalytic cracking unit but at anaccelerated rate.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D32 onCatalysts and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D32.02 on Physical-Mechanica
