1.1This test method covers determination of skeletal density of metal powders. The test method specifies general procedures that are applicable to many commercial pycnometry instruments. The method provides specific sample outgassing procedures for listed materials. It includes additional general outgassing instructions for other metals. The ideal gas law forms the basis for all calculations.
1.2This test method does not include all existing procedures appropriate for outgassing metal materials. The included procedures provided acceptable results for samples analyzed during an interlaboratory study. The investigator shall determine the appropriateness of listed procedures.
1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.3.1State all numerical values in terms of SI units unless specific instrumentation software reports volume or density, or both, using alternative units. In this case, present both reported and equivalent SI units in the final written report. Many instruments report skeletal density as g/cm3 instead of using correct SI units (kg/m3).
1.4This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
