6、The definitions of the following terms usedin this test method are found in Terminology C 717: preformedtape sealant, sealant.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The preformed tape sealant to be tested is placed on atared metal plate and weighed. After heat aging, the specimenis weighed again. The differen

7、ce in weight indicates thevolatile content of the tape sealant.5. Significance and Use5.1 Preformed tape sealants are tacky, deformable solidsthat are used under compression between two substrates in avariety of sealing applications. Compared to other types ofsealants, that is, gunnable sealants and

8、 caulks, sealing tapes aredesigned to be essentially 100 % solids materials. In use, thesetapes are intended to give long service with minimal weightloss or volatility. This procedure will give a measure of theweight loss of a preformed tape sealant after a controlledperiod of exposure at an elevate

Apparatus6.1 Balance, calibrated to weigh specimens to the nearest0.01 g.6.2 Thin Plates of Aluminum or Other Metal, two, not lessthan 51 mm (2 in.) wide by 152 mm (6 in.) long, for each tapeto be tested.6.3 Vented Air Circulating Oven, that complies with Speci-fication E 145 and is

10、 capable of aging samples at 100 6 2C(212 6 3.6F).7. Sampling7.1 Use a fresh roll of preformed tape sealant for testing.Remove a section of preformed tape sealant approximately 61cm (2 ft) long from the roll and discard.7.2 Remove release paper as required in order to fashion asuitable test specimen

11、.8. Procedure8.1 For each preformed tape sealant to be tested, preparetwo test specimens as follows:8.1.1 Clean and dry two metal plates, weight them, andrecord the tare weight for each to the nearest 0.01 g.8.1.2 Cut the preformed tape sealant into 127-mm (5.0-in.)lengths. Ply strips together to fo

12、rm on each specimen plate asolid block of preformed tape sealant not less than 38 mm (1.5in.) wide by 3 mm (0.12 in.) thick by 127 mm (5.0 in.) long.8.1.3 Weight the plates with the preformed tape sealant onthem, subtract the tare weights of the plates, and determine andrecord the initial net weight
