9、est Method3.1 Abrasive and pure water are combined into a slurry thatis stirred to leach the soluble salts from the abrasive.Thisslurry is filtered and conductance of the filtrate is measured.The conductivity,which is related to the concentration ofsoluble ionic materials contaminating the abrasive,
10、is calcu-lated from the conductance and the cell constant.4.Significance and Use4.1 Abrasive media may contain ionic contamination natu-rally(for example,beach sand),from manufacturing(quench-ing with contaminated water),transportation,storage or use(inthe case of abrasive that is reused).Ionic cont
11、amination on theabrasive may transfer to the surface during abrasive blastcleaning,resulting in potential osmotic blistering,acceleratedunderfilm corrosion and premature coating failure.4.2 This test method describes a shop/field procedure forassessing the level of conductive species on an abrasive.
