Metallic powders — Determination of apparent density — Part 1: Funnel method ISO 3923-1:2008

Publication date:   Apr 24, 2008

Scope

ISO 3923-1:2008 specifies the funnel method for the determination of the apparent density of metallic powders under standardized conditions.
The method is intended for metallic powders that flow freely through a 2,5 mm diameter orifice. It may, however, be used for powders that flow with difficulty through a 2,5 mm diameter orifice but flow through a 5 mm diameter orifice.
Methods for the determination of the apparent density of powders that will not flow through a 5 mm diameter orifice are specified in ISO 3923-2.
