8、toDetermine the Precision of a Test Method3.Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 dusting,nthat quantity of carbon that falls off thecarbon artifact while in the reaction chamber and is collected inthe container at the bottom of the reaction chamber plus thequantity of
9、carbon that is collected from the carbon artifactafter cooling.3.1.2 final CO2reactivity,nthe mass loss of the carbonartifact during the final 30 min of exposure to CO2in thereaction chamber divided by the initial geometric(right cylin-drical)exposed surface area of the sample,expressed asmilligrams
10、 per centimetre squared per hour.3.1.3 initial CO2reactivity,nthe mass loss of the carbonartifact during the first 30 min of exposure to CO2in thereaction chamber divided by the initial geometric(right cylin-drical)exposed surface area of the sample,expressed asmilligrams per centimetre squared per
11、hour.3.1.4 total CO2reactivity,nthe total mass loss of thecarbon artifact(including dusting)during the total time that thesample is exposed to CO2(60 min to 420 min)in the reactionchamber divided by the initial geometric(right cylindrical)exposed surface area of the sample,expressed as milligramsper
12、 centimetre squared per hour.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 Initial,final,and total CO2reactivity and dusting aredetermined by passing carbon dioxide gas at flow rates givinga standard velocity of reactant gas around cylindrically shapedcarbon artifacts under isothermal conditions for a specifiedlength
13、 of time.The reactivity is determined by continuouslymonitoring the sample mass loss.The dusting term can bedetermined by collecting and determining the mass of carbonparticles that fall off the sample during reaction or collectedfrom the sample after the heat treatment.5.Significance and Use5.1 The
14、 CO2reactivity rates are used to quantify thetendency of a carbon artifact to react with carbon dioxide.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetroleum Products,Liquid Fuels,and Lubricantsand is the direct responsibility ofSubcommittee D02.05 on Properties of Fuels,Petr
