EN 14205:2003 (E)41 Scope This European Standard specifies a method of determining the hardness of minerals in natural stone using theKnoop indenter. This method is especially useful for carbonate rock.2 Principle After carrying out a series of indentations by means of a Knoop indenter, the corresponding values of Knoopmicrohardness are calculated and the microhardness distribution is given.3 Symbols P - load on the indenter, in newtons L - length of the largest diagonal of the indentation, in millimetres HK - Knoop microhardness, in Megapascals HK25 - Knoop microhardness corresponding to a cumulative frequency of 25% (“lower quartile”), inMegapascalsHK50 - Knoop microhardness corresponding to a cumulative frequency of 50% (“median value”) HK75 - Knoop microhardness corresponding the cumulative frequency of 75% (“upper quartile”)4 ApparatusA microdurimeter essentially made of the following parts:- sample holder with a mechanism for horizontal movement in two orthogonal directions by means of adjustablescrews which also measure the amount of movement;- Knoop indenter (see Figure 1);- set of interchangeable weights from (0,1 to 5,0) Newtons;- device for applying the load on the indenter at different speeds;- microscope with a micrometer for measuring the indentation width and length with an accuracy o
