Produits carbonés utilisés pour la production de l'aluminium — Coke calciné et produits carbonés calcinés — Détermination de la masse volumique au xylène — Méthode pycnométrique

Abstract / scope

The density is meassured at 25 degrees centigrade by a pyknometric method after degassing under vacuum. Calcined coke may be treated with different types of oil in order to avoid the formation of dust during loading and transportation. The present method does not provide for this elemination of traces of oil which may be present in the sample.
