SIEVE RESIDUE 10. Procedure for Sieve Residue of Zinc Oxide 10.1 Apparatus: 10.1.1 Sieves, 75-mm (3-in.) or 200-mm (8-in.) with 45-um(325-mesh) wire cloth.* ( D e t ai led r e q u i r em en ts f o r th i s sie v e a re giv en in S pec i fica ti on E l l . ) 10.1.2 Balance, with a sensitivity of ±0.1 mg. 10.1.3 Drying Oven, maintained at 100±10℃. 10.1.4 Weighing Dish. 10.1.5 Aerator; for hose connected to a tap-water supply 10.2 Reagents: 10.2.1 Tap Water: 10.3 Sampling: 10.3.1 Sampling shall be at the discretion of the analyst toobtain a representative sample of the lot to be tested. 10.4 Procedure: 10.4.1 Weigh a 10 to 100-g sample to ±0.1 g in a suitableweighing dish. Small samples are used with the 75-mm (3-in.)sieve, large samples for the 200-mm (8-in.) sieve. 10.4.2 Place the sample in the sieve and wash with a streamof tap water, directed onto the sieve from a hose. If any lumpsare detected after most of the zinc oxide has passed through thesieve, gently manipulate the lumps to break them up usingfinger tips or a small brush. This operation serves to break upany persistent lumps of zinc oxide but is not stringent enoughto force coarse, hard particles through the sieve. Continuewashing with tap water until no more residue will pass throughthe sieve. When no more residue will pass through the sieve,place the sieve in an oven maintained at 100°C until it is dry. 10.4.3 Remove the sieve from the oven and transfer anyweighable residue to a small weighing dish, which has beenpreviously weighed to ±0.1 mg and weigh. 10.5 Calculations: 10.5.1 Calculate the percent sieve residue R as follows: where: R= sieve residue,%,WS = mass of sieve residue, g, ann(d = mass of sample, g. 10.6 Report: 10.6.1 The report shall include the following information: 10.6.1.1 Proper identification of the sample. 10.6.1.2 Results of two individual percent sieve residuedeterminations and their average. 11.
