1、Designation:C19809(Reapproved 2013)Standard Test Method forCold Bonding Strength of Refractory Mortar1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C198;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.
2、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 determination of the bond-ing strength of air-setting refractory mortar by determining theflexural strength(m
3、odulus of rupture)at room temperature ofoven-dried brick-mortar joints.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.3 This standa
4、rd 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 and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM St

7、how thebonding strength and intrinsic strength of different qualities ofair-setting mortar.The procedures described in this test methodmeasure the bonding strength and intrinsic strength of air-setting mortars when used with specific brands or lots ofrefractory brick.3.2 Note that it is possible to
8、obtain results with thesemethods for brick and mortar combinations which are incom-patible for use at high operating temperatures.The user mustdetermine this compatibility.Only brick and mortar combina-tions known or intended to be compatible for a particular useshould be tested.3.3 Properties of th
9、e brick,including its strength,apparentporosity,and pore size distribution,can affect the measurementof both the bonding strength of the brick-mortar composite andthe intrinsic strength of the mortar.The average modulus ofrupture of the test brick,as determined by Test Method C133,should exceed that
10、 expected for the mortar being tested.Thetesting of specific brands or lots of brick and mortar ispreferred.3.4 Three modes of failure are available:the break mayoccur within the brick itself,at the brick-mortar interface,orwithin the mortar itself.The latter provides a practical mea-surement of the
11、 strength of the mortar itself and is thepredominant mode of failure with the four-point flexure testdescribed.The three-point flexure test measures the failurestrength of the brick-mortar composite.Failure within the brickitself suggests that either the particular brick contained aserious flaw,or t
12、hat the mortar joint strength is of the samemagnitude or greater than that of the refractory brick.Themode of failure should always be reported in the final report.3.5 A ruggedness test for this test method3performed in1985 found the following variables to be rugged:specimen size(2.5 to 3.0 in.),mor
