1、Designation:D506119Standard Test Method forMicroscopical Determination of the Textural Components ofMetallurgical Coke1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5061;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year
2、 of last revision.A number in parentheses 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 the equipment and proceduresused for determining the types and amounts of coke carbonforms and
3、associated recognizable coal-and process-derivedtextural components in metallurgical coke in terms of volumepercent.This test method does not include coke structuralcomponents such as coke pores,coke wall dimensions,or otherstructural associations.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded
4、 asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and d
