United States14. Significance and Use4.1 Compression set tests are intended to measure the ability of rubber co
15、mpounds to retain elastic properties after prolongedaction of compressive stresses. The actual stressing service may involve the maintenance of a definite deflection, the constantapplication of a known force, or the rapidly repeated deformation and recovery resulting from intermittent compressive fo
16、rces.Though the latter dynamic stressing, like the others, produces compression set, its effects as a whole are simulated more closelyby compression flexing or hysteresis tests. Therefore, compression set tests are considered to be mainly applicable to serviceconditions involving static stresses. Te
17、sts are frequently conducted at elevated temperatures.5. Test Specimens5.1 Specimens from each sample may be tested in duplicate (Option 1) or triplicate (Option 2). The compression set of thesample in Option 1 shall be the average of the two specimens expressed as a percentage. The compression set
18、of the sample inOption 2 shall be the median (middle most value) of the three specimens expressed as a percentage.5.2 The standard test specimen shall be a cylindrical disk cut from a laboratory prepared slab.5.2.1 The dimensions of the standard specimens shall be:Type 1A 2BThickness, mm (in.) 12.5
19、0.5(0.49 0.02)6.0 0.2(0.24 0.01)Diameter, mm (in.) 29.0 0.5(1.14 0.02)13.0 0.2(0.51 0.01)A Type 1 specimen is used in Test Methods A, B, and C.B Type 2 specimen is used in Test Method B and C.5.2.2 When cutting the standard specimen, the circular die having the required inside dimensions specified i
20、n 5.2.1 shall berotated in a drill press or similar device and lubricated by means of a soap solution.Aminimum distance of 13 mm (0.51 in.) shallbe maintained between the cutting edge of the die and the edge of the slab. The cutting pressure shall be as light as possible tominimize cupping of the cu
21、t edges. The dies shall be maintained carefully so that the cutting edges are sharp and free of nicks.5.3 An optional method of preparing the standard specimen may be the direct molding of a circular disk having the dimensionsrequired for the test method used and specified in 5.2.1.NOTE 1It should b
22、e recognized that an equal time and temperature, if used for both the slab and molded specimen, will not produce an equivalentstate of cure in the two types of specimen. A higher degree of cure will be obtained in the molded specimen. Adjustments, preferably in the time of cure,must be taken into co
23、nsideration if comparisons between the specimens prepared by different methods are to be considered valid.NOTE 2It is suggested, for the purpose of uniformity and closer tolerances in the molded specimen, that the dimensions of the mold be specified andshrinkage compensated for therein.Atwo-plate mo

A similar mold but having a cavity of 6.36 0.3 mm (0.25 6 0.012 in.) in thickness and 13.3 6 0
25、.1 mm (0.52 6 0.004 in.) in diameter will provide Type 2 specimens for Test Method B.5.4 When the standard test specimen is to be replaced by a specimen taken from a vulcanized rubber part of greater thicknessthan the one indicated in 5.2.1, the sample thickness shall be reduced first by cutting tra
26、nsversely with a sharp knife and thenfollowed by buffing to the required thickness in accordance with Practice D3183.5.5 An alternative method of preparing specimens is by plying up cylindrical disks cut from a standard sheet prepared inaccordance with Practice D3182 using the specimen sizes specifi
27、ed in 5.2.1 and cutting as described in 5.2.2, or where a drill pressis not available cutting the specimens with a single stroke from a cutting die.5.5.1 The disks shall be plied, without cementing, to the thickness required. Such plies shall be smooth, flat, of uniformthickness, and shall not excee
28、d seven in number for Type 1 specimens and four in number for Type 2 specimens.5.5.2 Care shall be taken during handling and placing of the plied test specimen in the test fixture by keeping the circular facesparallel and at right angles to the axis of the cylinder.5.5.3 The results obtained on plie
29、d specimens may be different from those obtained using solid specimens and the results maybe variable, particularly if air is trapped between disks.5.5.4 The results obtained on the specimens prepared by one of the methods may be compared only to those prepared by thesame method.5.6 For routine or p
30、roduct specification testing, it is sometimes more convenient to prepare specimens of a different size orshape, or both. When such specimens are used, the results should be compared only with those obtained from specimens of similarsize and shape and not with those obtained with standard specimen. F
31、or such cases, the product specification should define thespecimen as to the size and shape. If suitable specimens cannot be prepared from the product, the test method and allowable limitsmust be agreed upon between the producer and the purchaser.6. Conditioning6.1 Store all vulcanized test specimen
32、s or product samples to be tested at least 24 h but not more than 60 days. When the dateof vulcanization is not known, make tests within 60 days after delivery by the producer of the article represented by the specimen.D395 1626.2 Allow buffed specimens to rest at least 30 min before specimens are c
33、ut for testing.6.3 Condition all specimens before testing for a minimum of 3 h at 23 6 2C (73.4 6 3.6F). Specimens whose compressionset properties are affected by atmospheric moisture shall be conditioned for a minimum of 24 h in an atmosphere controlled to arelative humidity of 50 6 10 %RH (40 to 6
34、0 %RH).7. Precision and Bias37.1 These precision statements have been prepared in accordance with Practice D4483. Please refer to Practice D4483 forterminology and other testing and statistical concepts.7.2 Prepared test specimens of two rubbers for Test Methods A and B were supplied to five laborat
35、ories. These were tested induplicate each day on two separate testing days.Atest result, therefore, is the average of two test specimens, for both Test MethodsA and B.7.3 One laboratory did not run the Test Method A testing; therefore, the precision for Test Method A is derived from fourlaboratories
36、.7.4 The Type 1 precision results are given in Table 1 and Table 2.7.5 BiasIn test method statistical terminology, bias is the difference between an average test value and the reference or truetest property value. Reference values do not exist for these test methods since the value or level of the t
37、est property is exclusivelydefined by the test method. Bias, therefore, cannot be determined.TEST METHOD ACOMPRESSION SET UNDERCONSTANT FORCE IN AIR8.

43、ism for compressing acalibrated spring the proper amount. The spring shall be of properly heat-treated spring steel with ends ground and perpendicularto the longitudinal axis of the spring. A suitable compression device is shown in Fig. 1. The spring shall conform to the followingrequirements:8.2.1.
44、1 The spring shall be calibrated at room temperature 23 6 5C (73.4 6 9F) by applying successive increments of forcenot exceeding 250 N (50 lbf) and measuring the corresponding deflection to the nearest 0.2 mm (0.01 in.). The curve obtained byplotting the forces against the corresponding deflections
45、shall have a slope of 70 6 3.5 kN/m (400 6 20 lbf/in.) at 1.8 kN (400lbf). The slope is obtained by dividing the two forces above and below 1.8 kN by the difference between the correspondingdeflections.8.2.1.2 The original dimensions of the spring shall not change due to fatigue by more than 0.3 mm
46、(0.01 in.) after it has beenmounted in the compression device, compressed under a force of 1.8 kN (400 lbf), and heated in the oven for one week at 70C6 2C (158 6 3.6F). In ordinary use, a weekly check of the dimensions shall show no greater change than this over a period of1 year.8.2.1.3 The minimu
47、m force required to close the spring (solid) shall be 2.4 kN (530 lbf).8.2.2 External Force ApplicationThe required force shall be applied to the compression plates and spring by external meansafter the test specimen is mounted in the apparatus. Either a calibrated compression machine or known masse
48、s may be used forforce application. Provision shall be made by the use of bolts and nuts or other devices to prevent the specimen and spring fromlosing their initial deflections when the external force is removed. The spring shall have essentially the same characteristics asdescribed in 8.2.1, but c
49、alibration is not required. A suitable compression device is shown in Fig. 2.8.3 PlatesThe plates between which the test specimen is compressed shall be made of steel of sufficient thickness to withstandthe compressive stresses without bending.8.3.1 The surfaces against which the specimen is held shall have a chromium an industrial chrome (hard chrome) plated finishand shall be cleaned thoroughly and wiped dry before each test.8.3.2 The steel surfaces contacting the rubber specimens shall be ground to a maximum roughness of 0.
