DMT Quartz Sand 850 DEF Stan 00-35 | 3-25 5.2 (b)
General description
The erosion behavior and the formation of structural damage in flight by sand are simulated with the aid of DMT quartz sand 850 my in accordance with DEF-Stan 00-35 standard chapter 3-25 5.2 (b) Sand.
Composition
The specified particle size distribution is shown in the following table:
x (µm) | Q3(x) (%) |
149.0 | 4.2 - 5.2 |
210.0 | 15.9 - 17.9 |
297.0 | 43.5 - 46.5 |
420.0 | 74.5 - 83.5 |
590.0 | 93.3 - 98.3 |
850.00 | 94.5 - 100.0 |
Transport and Storage
Partial segregation may occur during transport and storage. It is therefore recommended to homogenize the DMT Quartz Sand 850 before use, which can be achieved by mixing with a laboratory tumbler mixer. Please store in a dry and airtight original container.
Quality ensurance
In order to achieve reproducible quality, the raw materials and production are strictly controlled. The following quality controls are carried out:
Monitoring the particle size distribution of raw materials
Monitoring the particle size distribution of the end product
