1、Designation:C61198(Reapproved 2016)An American National StandardStandard Test Method forElectrical Resistivity of Manufactured Carbon and GraphiteArticles at Room Temperature1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C611;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year
2、oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year 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 determination of the elec-trical res
3、istivity of manufactured carbon and graphite articles atroom temperature.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded 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.I
4、t 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.Terminology2.1 Definitions:2.1.1 resistivitythe property of a material that determinesits resistance to the flow of an e

9、istivity,each specimen shallconform to the following:5.2.1 The cross-sectional area shall be uniform within0.75%.In general,the diameter of circular cross section,or thethickness and width of a strip specimen shall be determined bymicrometer measurements,and a sufficient number of mea-surements shal
10、l be made to obtain a mean cross-sectional areato within 0.5%.The test specimen shall be machined to yieldplanar and parallel end faces.These faces shall be perpendicu-lar to the specimen length to within 0.001 mm mm.Allsurfaces shall have a surface finish visually comparable to0.8 m rms.Reasonable
11、care should be exercised to assure thatall edges are sharp and without chips or other flaws.5.2.2 The test specimen shall show no defects observablewith normal vision and shall be free of surface deposits.5.2.3 The minimum ratio of specimen length to maximumcross-sectional dimension(width or diamete
12、r)shall be 6:1.5.2.3.1 The gage length may be measured by any scale thatwill give an accuracy of 60.5%in the length measured.In thedirection of the length of the specimen,the dimension of eachpotential contact shall be not more than 0.5%of the distancebetween the potential contacts.The minimum dista
13、nce betweeneach potential contact and the adjacent current contact shall bethe maximum cross-sectional dimension(width or diameter)ofthe specimen.If knife edges are used,they shall be parallel toeach other and perpendicular to the longitudinal direction ofthe sample.The minimum ratio of gage length
14、to maximumcross-sectional dimension(width or diameter)shall be 4:1.5.2.4 No dimension shall be smaller than five times thelength of the largest visible particle.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 onPetroleum Products,Liquid Fuels,and Lubricants and is the direct respon
