1 Scope
This Part of EN 725 describes methods for the determination of the compaction behaviour of ungranulated or
granulated ceramic powders, when subjected to uniaxial compressive loading in a rigid die, under specified
conditions.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.

17025:2005)
3 Principle
The powder is compacted uniaxially in a rigid die by double-action pressing. Samples of the powder may be
pressed either at a single pressure or at a series of pressures. After ejection from the die, the apparent
geometrical density of the compact is determined.
Where one pressure is used, the density obtained represents the compaction properties of the powder at that
pressure. Where more than one pressure is used, the densities obtained are utilized for drawing the
compaction curve of the powder, which is a plot of its density as a function of the compacting pressure.
