BS 6043-2.15:1997

This standard BS 6043-2.15:1997 Methods of sampling and test for carbonaceous materials used in aluminium manufacture. Electrode coke is classified in these ICS categories:

• 71.100.10 Materials for aluminium production

Calcined coke with poor mechanical strength may become degraded during mixing. Poor grain stability will affect the grain size and may result in poor quality of baked blocks.

This International Standard describes a laboratory vibration mill method for the determination of the grain stability of calcined coke for the manufacture of carbon products used in the manufacture of aluminium.
