ASTM E112 Grain Counting
Industries that must meet specific grain sizing procedures such as ASTM E112 often use microscope eyepiece grain counting reticles. Test Method E 112 is one of the most widely cited ASTM standards. This method deals with the measurement of grain size when the grains
are not deformed in shape, although it does contain
some information about measurement of grain size when the grains have
been elongated by processing.
Grain counting reticles fit inside the eyepiece of a microscope and will impose an image such as this one over the grain particles, making it easy to compare particle size and perform a count.
