12、kies incorporated within them.4.1.2 In some separatory devices,the slurry is recirculatedin contact with the plate or screen within the separator deviceto achieve stickies separation.In other devices,stickies remain-ing on the plate or screen are washed free from the plate orscreen with a supply of
13、fresh water,or mechanically removedwith tweezers or a similar device.Sometimes both proceduresoccur.4.1.3 The typical plate or screen used for stickies separationin this practice contains slots having a width of 0.15 mm(0.006in.),however slotted plates or screens having a different widthopening,for
14、example 0.10 mm(0.004 in.)or 0.20 mm(0.008in.),have been successfully used in specific applications.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D06 on Paper andPaper Products and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D06.92 on TestMethods.Current edition approved July 10,1997.P
