1、Designation:C48516Standard Test Method forMeasuring Warpage of Ceramic Tile1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C485;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses in
2、dicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers procedures for measuring thecorner,diagonal,and edge warpages of the following catego-ries of ceramic tile:1.1.1 Square Tile,2 by 2 in.(51
3、by 51 mm)or larger,thatare nominally flat,of uniform overall thickness,and have asmooth face of one of the types:unglazed,bright glazed,matteglazed,or finely crystalline glazed.1.1.2 Oblong Tile,no facial dimension smaller than 2 in.(51mm),that are flat,of uniform overall thickness,and have asmooth
4、face of one of the types:unglazed,bright glazed,matteglazed,or finely crystalline glazed.1.1.3 Square and Oblong Tile,no facial dimension smallerthan 2 in.(51 mm),that are flat,but have an irregular face suchas embossed,sloped,bumpy,wavy,coarsely crystalline,orwire-cut textured.1.1.4 Nonrectilinear
5、Tile,larger than 4 in.2(26 cm2),thatare flat and of uniform body thickness with smooth or irregularface,such as hexagonal,diamond,Spanish type,and so forth.1.1.5 Trim Tile meeting one of the descriptions in 1.1.1 1.1.4 except that only a part of the tile surface is flat.(Surfacetrim tile should be t
6、reated as flat tile whenever possible.)1.1.6 Square or Oblong Tile with facial area less than 4in.2(26 cm2)and at least two straight sides equal to or greaterthan 1.0 in.(25 mm)long.(Modular 1-by 1-in.tile are not inthe scope of this test method.)1.2 This test method is not applicable to tile having
7、 em-bossed surfaces that are not flat,or that have a combination ofvariable body thickness and an irregular face.1.3 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 a

10、Thedevice can be specific to a tile size or adjustable.Typically thetile rests on the pins and the zero plane is fixed from thesecontact points.3.1.2 non-contact warpage device,na device that usessome form of non-contact method to take measurements.Anexample would be laser measurement.These devices

12、true plane along the edges,at the corners,or the diagonals.The deviation is measured atthe mid-length of an edge or diagonal,or at a corner,expressedas a percentage of the length of the edge,diagonal,or corner,and called convex or concave with respect to the face of thetile.4.Summary of Test Method4
