Scope1.1 Fabrics coated with rubber or rubber-like m

3、aterialsdisplay increased stiffening when exposed to decreasing am-bient temperatures. This test method describes a simple pass/fail procedure whereby material flexibility at a specified lowtemperature can be determined. Failure is indicative of unac-ceptability of the coated fabric for use at that

The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D 751 Test Methods for Coated Fabrics2.2 ASTM Adjuncts:Bending Fixture Drawings33. Summary

6、 of Test Method3.1 Specimens cut from the coated fabric are conditioned ata selected low temperature for a specified duration. Whileremaining exposed at that temperature, they are then individu-ally placed in a bending apparatus and bent through a specifiedangle. Failure of the coated fabric is indi

7、cated by fracture of thespecimen or the appearance of surface cracks in the coating.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method evaluates the ability of coated fabricsto withstand a prescribed bend at an established low tempera-ture. Fabrics coated with polymeric materials are used in manyapplicatio

8、ns requiring low temperature flexing. Data obtainedusing this test method may be used to predict in-use behavioronly in applications in which the conditions of deformation aresimilar to those specified in this test method. This test methodhas been found useful for specification purposes but does not

9、necessarily indicate the lowest temperature at which thematerial may be used.5. Apparatus5.1 Low-Temperature ChamberThe chamber in which thetest specimens are exposed to low temperature shall besufficient in size to contain the bending fixture used for testingthe specimens and to permit the operatio

10、n of the fixture to bendthe specimens without removal from the chamber. The cham-ber shall also have sufficient work space to permit the condi-tioning of test specimens in accordance with Section 8 of thistest method. It shall be capable of maintaining a uniformatmosphere of cold dry air or any suit

11、able gas at specifiedtemperatures within a tolerance of 61C (61.8F).5.2 Bending Fixture3The basic requirements for the de-vice used for bending the test specimens are shown in Fig. 1and Fig. 2.

Sampling6.1 Samples for test specimen preparation shall be takenfr

17、om roll ends at a frequency agreed upon between thepurchaser and the supplier.7. Test Specimens7.1 The test specimens shall be 25 6 1mm(16 0.04 in.)wide and 100 6 2mm(46 0.08 in.) long. They shall be cutwith the longer dimension parallel to the lengthwise directionof the coated fabric, unless otherw

18、ise specified.7.2 At least three specimens shall be cut from each samplebeing tested.8. Conditioning8.1 Test specimens shall be conditioned prior to the test inaccordance with the standard condition described in TestMethods D 751.8.2 Place the test specimens between glass plates withsufficient space

19、 between each specimen to permit the passageof cold air during the conditioning period. Place the glassplates with the specimens held in position, the bendingapparatus and the gloves in the low-temperature chamber.Unless otherwise specified, expose them for4htocold, dry airor any suitable gas at the

20、 specified temperature.9. Procedure9.1 At the termination of the exposure period, and while stillin the test chamber, remove the specimens from between theglass plates one at a time (WarningGloves must be worn atall times when handling specimens prior to making the bendtest.) and place into the bend

21、ing apparatus with the flexingplate held into the open position by the trigger pin. Face theside to be evaluated away from the mandrel unless otherwisespecified.9.2 As soon as the specimen is in position in the bendingapparatus, release the trigger and permit the flexing plate tomake a free fall.9.3

22、 After all specimens have been tested, remove them andexamine for fractures or coating cracks under 53 magnifica-tion. During the examination, fold all specimens 180 in thesame direction as the bend during the test.9.4 When three specimens are tested and none fracture orshow any cracks in the coatin
