ASTM C110-16e1 Standard Test Methods for Physical Testing of Quicklime, Hydrated Lime, and Limestone
standard by ASTM International, 12/01/2016
Full Description
1.1These test methods cover physical testing of quicklime and hydrated lime, and of limestone not otherwise covered in ASTM standards.
Note 1:Quicklime and hydrated lime have a high affinity for moisture and carbon dioxide. Caution should be taken to protect both hydrated and quicklime during sampling, storage, and testing (see Practice C50).
1.2The test procedures appear in the following order:
| Plastic Property Testing | Section |
| Standard Consistency of Lime Putty | 5 |
| Plasticity of Lime Putty | 6 |
| Water Retention of Hydrated Lime | 7 |
| Air Entrainment | 8 |
| Soundness Testing | |
| Autoclave Expansion of Hydrated and Hydraulic Lime | 9 |
| Popping and Pitting of Hydrated Lime | 10 |
| Application Testing | |
| Slaking Rate of Quicklime | 11 |
| Dry Brightness of Pulverized Limestone | 12 |
| Limestone Grindability Determination by the Laboratory Ball Mill Method | 13 |
| Settling Rate of Hydrated Lime | 14 |
| Particle Size Analysis | |
| Residue and Sieve Analysis | 15 |
| Sieve Analysis of Dry Limestone, Quicklime, and Hydrated Lime | 16 |
| Fineness of Pulverized Quicklime and Hydrated Lime by Air Permeabiity | 17 |
| Particle Size of Pulverized Limestone | 18 |
| Dry Screening of Hydrated Lime, Pulverized Quicklime, and Limestone by Air Jet Sieving | 19 |
| Wet Sieve Analysis of Agricultural Liming Materials | 20 |
| Density Measurement | |
| Apparent Loose Density of Hydrated Lime, Pulverized Quicklime, and Limestone | 21 |
| Apparent Packed Density of Hydrated Lime, Pulverized Quicklime, and Limestone | 22 |
| Relative Density (Specific Gravity) of Hydrated Lime Products | 23 |
1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in brackets are mathematical conversions to inch-pound units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
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.
