5、or Evaluating Precision for Test MethodStandards in the Rubber and Carbon Black ManufacturingIndustries3.Summary of Test Method3.1 Pour density is determined by measuring the mass ofcarbon black in a known volume.4.Significance and Use4.1 Pour density is a function of the degree of compactionduring
6、pelletization.It is strongly influenced by and inverselyproportional to structure(OAN).Pour density of carbon blackis useful for estimating the weight-to-volume relationship forcertain applications,such as automatic batch loading systems,and for estimating weights of bulk shipments.5.Apparatus5.1 Cy
