(Test Method)Standard Test Method for Vibratory Packing Density of Large Formed Catalyst and Catalyst Carrier Particles
Standard Test Method for Vibratory Packing Density of Large Formed Catalyst and Catalyst Carrier Particles
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 This test method is used for measuring the vibratory packing density of formed particles used in fixed bed reactors, driers, and so forth.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the vibratory packing density of formed catalyst and catalyst carrier particles that will not break up significantly under test conditions. For the purpose of this test, catalyst particles are defined as extrudates, spheres or formed pellets greater than 4.8 mm.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.3 This 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

in an inert atmosphere. After heating, cool the test sample in a desiccator or other suitable container to eliminate the possibility
of moisture adsorption prior to weighing. Weigh the sample to the nearest tenth of a gram, W .
