Significance and Use4.1 The significance of these test methods lies in the ability to differentiate between the degrees of ozone resistance under thelimited and specified conditions of the accelerated tests. The degre
27、e of resistance being judged by the appearance and magnitudeof the formation of cracks in the surface of the subject material.4.2 In service, rubber materials deteriorate when exposed to ozone. It is imperative to have test methods in which simple,accelerated time/exposure, comparisons of the materi
28、als ability to resist cracking caused by ozone exposure can be empiricallyevaluated. Such tests can be used for producer/consumer acceptance, referee purposes, research, and development.4.3 These methods are not necessarily suited for use in purchase specifications as there may be no correlation wit
29、h serviceperformance as actual service conditions (outdoor exposure) vary widely due to geographic location and, therefore, may not yieldrepeatable or reproducible results.5. Apparatus5.1 The apparatus employed to provide a controlled environment containing specified concentrations of ozone and part
30、ialpressures, at specified temperatures, is described in 5.2, being common to all test methods enumerated herein. The ancillaryequipment required to perform individual procedures is described in their respective sections.5.2 Ozone Test Apparatus:5.2.1 Test ChamberGeneral requirements for an acceptab
31、le ozone test chamber are adequate control and measurement ofozone concentration levels based upon partial pressure (refer to Note 1); volume exchange rate; temperature; internal chamberD1149 162circulation of the gas (airozone mixture, refer to Note 3); and internal chamber volume. An acceptable oz
32、one test chamber maybe individually manufactured for a particular application, or a commercially manufactured chamber. The ozone test chambers shallconform to the following requirements:NOTE 3Daltons Law and the gas equation is used to express ozone content as partial pressure. The partial pressure
33、of ozone in a mixture with air,P(O3), is given in millipascals (mPa).5.2.1.1 The internal chamber shall be constructed of a material with minimal reaction to ozone, preferably stainless steel,contained within an integral external structure which provide unencumbered access to the mechanical, electri
34、cal, display, andcontrol devices.(1) The internal chamber shall be accessible through a door having an adequate closure mechanism and seal to prevent lossof partial pressure or adversely affect the ozone concentration levels throughout the duration of a test. It is recommended that thedoor have a me
35、ans by which to prevent inadvertent opening during the intended duration of a test.(2) The access door may be equipped with an observation window. This shall be of tempered glass and shall be sealed toprevent loss of partial pressure or adversely affect the ozone concentration level throughout the d
36、uration of a test.(3) The internal chamber may be equipped with a source of illumination. It shall be situated in a manner so that neither thetemperature of the internal chamber, the ozone concentration level, or partial pressure is adversely affected. Illumination is to beused in a temporary fashio
37、n, intended for intermediate viewing of the specimens. Long term use, in excess of a consecutive 5-minperiod, or more than a total of 15 min, during any given 24-h period, invalidates determinations and therefore requires monitoringand reporting.(4) The internal chamber may be equipped with shelves,
38、 or racks, on which to place specimens. They shall be constructed ofa material with minimal reaction to ozone, preferably stainless steel. They shall be of a design that minimizes the effect on theintroduction, circulation, exchange, or exhaust of the gas (airozone mixture).5.2.1.2 The internal volu
39、me of the chamber shall be no less than 0.11 m (4 ft3). The internal chamber volume may be greater,provided the prescribed levels of ozone concentration and partial pressure are maintained (refer to 5.2.1.3(1) and Note 1).5.2.1.3 A means for generating, measuring, and controlling ozone concentration
40、s levels and partial pressure shall be provided.The ozone generating source shall be isolated from the internal chamber and within the integral external structure.(1) The generation and introduction of ozone shall be by a means whereby ozone concentration levels in the internal testchamber of betwee
41、n 25 and 200 pphm (parts per hundred million) 6 10 % at 100 kPa (atmospheric pressure at mean sea level,MSL) and the equivalent pressures of between 25 and 200 mPa 6 10 % are maintained throughout the duration of the test (referto Notes 1 and 2).The preferred method of ozone generation being either
42、quartz UV, corona discharge (dielectric), or a combinationof both.(2) The test chamber ozone concentration levels and pressures shall be either infinitely variable between those prescribed or,at minimum, selectable at 25, 50, 100, 200 pphm and mPa, respectively. Broader ranges of ozone concentration
43、 and partial pressureare acceptable, provided the specified concentrations of ozone and partial pressure are maintained as specified.(3) The means of measurement of the ozone concentration shall be by any of the methods described in Test Methods D4575,with ultraviolet (UV) absorption measurement bei
44、ng preferred as it has been shown to be more accurate and precise.5.2.1.4 The source of air may be ambient, or from a compressed air supply. In either case, adequate filtration of particulatematter from the source shall be provided. The moisture content of the air source shall be minimized, either t
45、hrough filtration, adesiccant, or by other means.5.2.1.5 The flow of the gases (air and ozone) shall be introduced into the chamber in a manner that prevents stratification orstagnation.5.2.1.6 The gas (airozone mixture) exchange rate shall be of a magnitude such that no appreciable reduction in ozo
46、neconcentration or partial pressure results from the introduction of test specimens.(1) The exchange rate will vary with the gas (airozone mixture) level, temperature, number of test specimens introduced, andtheir reaction with ozone.(2) A gas (airozone mixture) exchange rate of 75 % of the total vo
47、lume of the internal chamber per minute has been foundto be an acceptable and adequate rate, and shall be considered to be the minimum acceptable rate of gas exchange.(3) As indicated, this exchange rate will vary, dependent upon the enumerated variables, and the minimum exchange rate shallbe establ
48、ished locally, as agreed upon between customer and supplier, or between laboratories, but shall not be less than thatdescribed in 5.2.1.6(2).5.2.1.7 A means of providing internal chamber circulation of the gas (airozone mixture) shall be provided by an electric fancapable of maintaining a constant v
49、elocity throughout the duration of a test. The velocity shall be no less than 0.6 m/s (2 fts) asmeasured at 50 6 1 mm (1.97 6 0.04 in.) from the forward edge of the fan blades on the internal side of the chamber.(1) The fan motor shall not be located within the internal chamber. The fan motor shall employ an extension shaft, or drivemechanism, that isolates the motor from the internal chamber with an ozone resistant seal that assures the integrity of separationbetween the motor and the internal chamber.(2) The fan blades shall be re
