ISO 5940:1981, Carbonaceous materials for the production of aluminium -- Pitch for electrodes -- Determination of softening point by the ring-and-ball method
by International Organization For Standardization
ISO 5940:1981 specifies the ring-and-ball method for determining the softening point of pitch used in electrodes for aluminum production. This standard from the International Organization for Standardization ensures precise measurement and quality control in carbonaceous materials testing, supporting consistent industrial standards.
About This Book
ISO 5940:1981 provides a standardized procedure for assessing the softening point of pitch, a crucial carbonaceous material in aluminum electrode production. The method employs the ring-and-ball technique to measure the temperature at which the pitch softens under controlled conditions.
Developed by the International Organization for Standardization, this standard supports reliable testing protocols essential for quality assurance in metallurgical applications. It details the apparatus, sample preparation, and procedural steps to achieve accurate and reproducible results.
By establishing uniform criteria, ISO 5940:1981 facilitates international compliance and consistency in the evaluation of pitch properties, aiding industries reliant on high-performance materials for aluminum smelting.
