34、om each batch to perform the required tests. A batch shall be the quantity of material manufactured at one time. 4.6 Approval, Reapproved, and Recertification Approval of qualification test results, being reapproved, and recertification of qualification for QPL listing shall be in accordance with PD

35、2000 and PD2001, unless otherwise specified herein. Data shall be reviewed by the G-8 QPG. 4.6.1 Approval Manufacturer shall submit qualification test data to the PRI for approval by the G-8 QPG. Qualification will be valid until such time that the conditions in 4.6.2 or 4.6.3 occur, or unless quali

36、fication is withdrawn per the conditions set forth in PD2000 and PD2001. 4.6.2 Reapproved Manufacturer shall use ingredients, manufacturing procedures, processes, and methods of inspection on production tape that is the same as those used on the qualification sample. If necessary to make any change

37、in product formulation, raw materials, basic methods of processing, or plant site, manufacturer shall submit to be reapproved by the G-8 QPG by submitting a statement of the proposed changes in ingredients and/or processing and, when requested, sample tape. Production tape made by the revised proced

38、ure shall not be shipped prior to receipt being reapproved. 4.6.2.1 A review of the submitted changes may result in being reapproved without testing, reapproved after partial requalification testing, or reapproved after full requalification testing. SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS3721 Page 6 of 8 4.6.3 Recert

39、ification Recertification of qualification is required every five years. Recertification consists of a letter certifying that there have been no changes in the material ingredients, manufacturing processes, or site of production since qualification, and that the tape shall meets all of the requireme

40、nts of this specification. In addition, a test report shall be provided by the manufacturer showing compliance with all of the qualification tests per 4.4.1. 4.7 Test Methods Testing shall be as follows: 4.7.1 Standard Test Conditions Standard laboratory test conditions for preparation and testing o

41、f specimens shall be 77 F 5 F (25 C 3 C). Unless otherwise specified herein, all test specimens shall be tested under these conditions throughout the test methods. 4.7.2 Standard Tolerances Unless otherwise specified herein, standard tolerances shown in Table 4 shall be applied throughout the test m

42、ethods. Table 4 - Standard tolerances Measurement Units Tolerance Temperature Day Hour Minute Inches (mm) 2 F (1 C) 2 hours 5 minutes 10 seconds 0.010 inch (0.25 mm) 4.7.3 Test Procedure Adhesive Transfer A clear glass panel, of sufficient dimensions to accept the application of three separate 6.0 i

43、nch lengths of tape (e.g., 3 x 8 x 0.125 inch), shall be cleaned by scrubbing the surface with a clean AMS3819 Grade A cloth with solvent conforming to AMS3167. Repeat cleaning panel surface by scrubbing the surface with a clean AMS3819 Grade A cloth heavily dampened, but not dripping, with solvent

44、conforming to AMS3167. Immediately wipe the surface dry with clean AMS3819 Grade A cloth prior to solvent evaporation. Repeat this cleaning procedure until the dry AMS3819 cloth used for wiping off the solvent displays no visible contamination and the surface is free of smears, foreign deposits or o

45、ther surface marks. Do not allow the solvent to evaporate from the surface. Allow the panel to dry for an additional 15 minutes. A minimum of three tape samples shall be taken from one roll of tape. Prior to the selection of these samples, remove two laps of tape and discard. A 6.0 inch length of ta

46、pe shall be applied to the glass surfaces with firm hand pressure. Within 90 seconds 30 seconds of application, remove the tape by seizing the free end and pulling it off rapidly (not jerked) back upon itself at as close to an angle of 180 as possible. If the tape tears, the tape may be peeled at a

47、slower rate to avoid tearing. Repeat on different areas of the panel with the second and third tape samples. Evaluate the panel for no adhesive transfer per 3.3.4. If no adhesive remains on the glass panel, the test passes the specification requirement. If adhesive remains on the glass, the glass sh

48、all be cleaned with AMS3167 solvent to remove, if possible, the remaining adhesive. After cleaning, the panel shall be re-evaluated for no adhesive transfer per 3.3.4. If no adhesive remains on the glass panel, the test passes the specification requirement. SAE INTERNATIONAL AMS3721 Page 7 of 8 4.8
