FOREWORD
0.1 This Indian Standard was adopted by the Indian Standards Institution on 17 November 1968, after the draft finalized by the Flooring and
Plastering Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council.
0.2 Acid-resistant bricks are used for masonry constructions, floorings
subjectto acid attack, lining of chambers and towers in chemical plants,
lining ofsewers carrying industrial effluents, etc, to prevent deterioration
of the surface by acids except !hydrofluoric acid and perchloric acid, and
other chemicals.
These bricks are made of raw materials, such as clay
or shale of suitable composition with low lime and iron content, felspar,
flint or sand, and vitrified at high temperatures in ceramic kilns. These
bricks are-designed primarily for use in chemical and allied industries
and are normally used with chemical resistant mortars. This standard
covers the requirements for bricks intended for use where minimum
absorption is required and thermal shock and alkali resistance are not
important service factors.
0.3 In the formulation of this standard due weightage has been given to
international co-ordination among the standards and practices prevailing in different countries in addition to relating it to the practices in the
field in this country.
This has been met by referring to the IS0
Recommendation
R 475-1966 Dimensions of rectangular refractory
bricks .
0.4 Assistance has also been rendered by the investigations carried out
by Central Building Research Institute, Roorkee.
0.5 This standard contains a Note in Table 1 which permits the
purchaser to use his option regarding requirement for resistance to
wear of acid-resistant bricks.
0.6 For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of
this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated
expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in
accordance tiith IS : 2-1960*. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified
value in this standard.

SPECIMEN
A-I.I A minimum
of five whole bricks shall be dried for at least 6 hours
in an oven maintained
at 110 f 5C and then transfeired
for cooling
to an oven maintained
at about 30C.
The specimens
shall then be
weighed ( rY,) in a balance to an accuracy
of 5 g.
A-2. PROCEDURE
A-2.1 The weighed specimens shall then be immersed
in distilled water
in a suitable vessel and boiled for two hours.
During boiling, the test
specimens
shall be supported
so as not to come in contact
with the
heated bottom of the container.
After boiling the specimens shall be

allowed to remain immersed in water for 20 h. They shall be lifted and
the excess water on the surface shall be removed by wiping the surface
with a damp cloth and the specimens re-weighed ( W, ) to an accuracy
of5g.

OF TEST SPECIMEN
51.1 The test specimens shall be whole bricks the dimensions of which
shall be measured to the nearest 1 mm. A minimum of five bricks shall
be separately tested. The test specimens shall be immersed in water at
27 f 2C for 24 hours.
B-2. PROCEDURE
B-2.1 The test specimen shall be placed centrally on self-aligning
bearers A, B and C as shown in Fig. 2.
The bearers shall be of mild
steel 40 mm in diameter and shall be in the same horizontal plane and
parallel to each other.
The distance between the bearers A and B at
the lines of contact with the specimen shall be three-fourths of the
length dimension of the brick.
Bearer C shall be midway between
bearers A and B measured horizontally and rests upon the surface of the
specimen. The load shall be applied at a uniform rate not greater than
30 kg/min through bearer C.

El.1 Lot - In any consignment all the bricks of the same shape and
size and from the same batch of manufacture shall be grouped together
to constitute a lot.
E-1.1.1 Each lot so formed shall be tested separately for ascertaining
its conformity or otherwise to the requirements of the specification.
El.2 The number of bri,cks to be selected at random from the lot shall

The lot shall be considered as conforming to the requirements of these characteristics if the number of defective bricks does not
exceed the permissible number as given in co1 3 of Table 2. A brick is
considered as defective if it fails in respect of any one or more of these
characteristics.
RE-TEST
E3.1 If the samples, when tested, do not comply with the requirements
specified in the standard, a further similar set of samples shall be taken
at random from the same batch and subjected to the tests. If any of the
samples of the second test fails to comply with the requirements specified in the standard then all the bricks in the batch represented by the
samples shall be rejected.
