7.2 Overview Table

Sieving aids

Quantity

for

each

sieve

/

material to be
sieved

Supplier

Area of Application

Note!!

Rubber balls

5 pcs., Ø20 mm

RETSCH, Haan

with fine, dry materials that are
difficult to separate and the use of
projection sieve shakers

When mechanical sieving aids are
used, there is a danger that soft
materials

may

disintegrate

and

damage can occur to fine sieve
meshes!

Agate balls

10 pcs., Ø10 mm

RETSCH, Haan

Hard porcelain balls

approx. 10gr., Ø2
mm

RETSCH, Haan

Vulkollan® cube

5 pcs., 12x12

RETSCH, Haan

when

using

planetary

sieve

shakers

in manual sieving

Brushes

3 pcs.

RETSCH, Haan

Plastic rings

3 pcs., various
diameters

Small brush

highly dispersed silicic acid

0.5 to 2%

Degussa,
Frankfurt-on-Main

with fine, sticky materials that
contain

fat

and

are

electrostatically charged

Before adding, check usability and
compatibility!

powder

Degreasing

When the material being sieved is
very greasy

The material being sieved and the
grain size must not be changed by
the solvent during degreasing or by
the temperature and air during
drying.

Drying

When the material being sieved is
very wet/very damp

Guide dry, warm air through
the sieve stack

When the material being sieved is
hygroscopic

Send water vapour through
the material

When the material being sieved is
coarse

and

electrostatically

charged

First screen with the fine
sieve and then with the
coarse sieve.

If it is important to prevent
contamination

from

other

mechanical aids, such as e.g.
rubber balls.

The coarse material works like a
mechanical sieving aid (balls) on the
fine sieves.

Intermittent sieving

RETSCH, Haan

for fine materials that stick easily
and drop only with difficulty
through the shaker.

Intermittent switching is built into
most projection sieve shakers and
can be switched on as required.

7.3 Sieving Sample Quantities

The stack of sieves required for the sieve analyses consists of test sieves arranged
one on top of the other in ascending order of aperture size as well as the collecting
pan.

To ensure quick fractioning with an exact result, the quantity of the material being
sieved must be adapted to suit the sieve diameter as well as the nominal diameter
of the openings. Guidelines are obtained in the respective standards for the sieve
analyses.
