8、be 40 to 45rpm.Provision shall be made for maintaining the initialtemperature of the specimen containers throughout the test.Additional agitation shall be provided by14-in.(6.4-mm)stainless steel balls in the specimen containers.Apparatus isillustrated in Figs.1-3.NOTE1A motor-driven assembly,design
9、ed to hold 1-pt(500-mL)specimen containers so that they are relative to the axis of the motor shaftin the same way as in the Launder-Ometer,can be used.5The entireassembly,fitted with specimen containers,shall be turned at 40 to 45 rpminside a simple boxlike container which is heated at 120F(49C)wit
10、hthermostatic control.Thus,heat loss from the preheated contents of thespecimen containers is held at a minimum during the 30-min washingperiods.Such an apparatus is illustrated in Figs.4 and 5.4.2 Stainless Steel Balls,type 316,14in.(6 mm)diameter.4.3 Steel or Glass Jar,1 pt(0.5 L),with washer and
