Summary of Test Method3.1 Plasticity:3.1.1 A specimen
7、 of specific volume and height is tested atroom temperature or heated to a specified test temperature for15 min and then subjected to a compressive force of 49 N fora specified time.3.1.2 At the end of this time, the height of the specimen ismeasured, and the plasticity number is calculated.3.2 Reco
8、veryThere are two recovery procedures.3.2.1 Procedure AThe test specimen is removed from theplastometer immediately after the determination of plasticityand allowed to cool and recover some of its original height for1 min. The height is measured again and the recovery iscalculated.3.2.2 Procedure BT
9、he test specimen is compressed to aheight of 5 mm for 30 s and then allowed to recover at the testtemperature for 5 min. The height is measured again and therecovery is calculated.4. Significance and Use4.1 The plasticity number and the recovery of the testspecimen are related to the flow properties
10、 and the elasticproperties, respectively, and may be useful in predictingprocessing characteristics, such as ease of forming and extru-sion characteristics.4.1.1 In this test method, plasticity is measured in an inversemanner, as noted by the final height of the specimen. Thus,high plasticity rubber
11、s (high degree of flow during test) areindicated by a low plasticity number.5. Apparatus5.1 The essential features of the parallel plate plastometer,illustrated in Fig. 1, are as follows:5.1.1 Two metal plates, not less than 10 mm in thicknessand 40 mm in diameter, shall be mounted on a suitable fra
12、meso that one plate moves with respect to the other, and so that thetwo plates are parallel within 0.017 rad (1) at all times.5.1.2 The apparatus shall be so designed that a specimenbetween the parallel plates is subjected to a force of 49 6 0.5N, including the effect of the spring in the dial gage
13、during test.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM committee D11 on Rubberand is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D11.12 in Processability Tests.Current edition approved June 1, 2004.

16、er that the distance between the platescan be determined at all times.5.1.4 When required, the apparatus shall be operated in anyoven, as described in Specification E 145, that is capable ofcontaining the plastometer.5.1.5 A separate dimensional measurement gage is requiredfor performing recovery me
17、asurements. The apparatus andmethodology described in Practice D 3767, Procedure A, shallbe employed when performing these measurements.5.2 Test SurfacesFilms or material with low coefficientsof friction to prevent sticking of the test specimen to the plates.The most commonly used test surface is po
18、lyester film.4NOTE 2The test surface used can affect the plasticity number. Evendifferent grades of the same type of polyester film can cause differentresults. When comparing results, the same test surface must be used.6. Sampling6.1 Samples may be taken from raw rubber or unvulcanizedrubber compoun
19、ds undergoing processing operations.7. Test Specimens7.1 The specimen shall be a right cylinder 2.00 6 0.02 cm3in volume and be free from air pockets. (A cylinder 16 mm indiameter and 10 mm in height is appropriate.) The specimenmay be prepared from either a solid piece or plied sheets ofunvulcanize
20、d rubber approximately 1.5 mm in thickness, carebeing taken to exclude air pockets in the sheet. The specimensmay be cut from the sheet either by means of two mating diesconforming to Fig. 2, which produce cylinders of the correctvolume, or a rotating die having an internal diameter ofapproximately
21、16 mm. If a rotating die is used, the height of thecylinder shall be adjusted until the volume is 2.00 6 0.02 cm3.If the density is known, weighing may be used to adjust to thecorrect volume. If necessary, the specimen shall be placed in asuitable holder so that it is not appreciably deformed before
22、testing.8. Test Conditions8.1 The plasticity and recovery values obtained for a givensample will depend largely upon the manner in which the testspecimen is prepared. It is therefore imperative that whencomparisons are made between similar materials, the testspecimen preparation should be in accorda
23、nce with somerigidly specified method. This is necessary because the plas-ticity and recovery may be affected by the amount of mechani-cal working and the conditions under which such work is done.This effect is not constant for all materials. The time intervalbetween test specimen preparation and te
24、sting is important andshould be the same for test specimens between which com-parisons are to be made.8.2 The test temperature shall be 23 (room temperature), 40,70, 85, or 100C unless another temperature is agreed upon.The most frequently used temperature is 23C.8.3 Readings may be taken at any des
25、ired interval followingthe application of the load. The most frequently used intervalsare between 3 and 10 min.9. Plasticity Procedure9.1 Set the indicator to read zero with two thicknesses of thetest surface between the plates. Condition the plastometer atthe test temperature until temperature equi
26、librium is achieved.9.2 Place the test specimen between the two test surfaces toprevent sticking of the test specimen to the plates.9.3 If required, condition the test specimen at the testtemperature for 15 6 0.5 min.9.4 Quickly place the test specimen between the two paral-lel plates, lower the mas

Recovery Procedures10.1 Recovery values may be determined by the proceduredescribed in either 10.2 or 10.3, but the results will differ.10.2 Procedure A:10.2.1 After determining the plasticity as described inSection 9, immediat

30、.3 Procedure B:10.3.1 Follow the procedure described in Section 9 fordetermining plasticity, except that the test specimen shall becompressed to a height of 5 mm for 30 s. This may be done byplacing three spacers 5.00 6 0.01 mm in thickness on twothicknesses of test surface at suitable positions bet

Precision and Bias12.1 These precision and bias statements have been pre-pared in accordance with Practice D 4483. Please refer toPractice D 4483 for terminology and other testing and statisti-
35、cal concept explanations.12.2 The Type 1 precision was determined from an inter-laboratory study of three compounds that were mixed in onelaboratory. Four laboratories prepared samples and tested eachcompound.12.3 A “test result” for this plasticity and recovery testingrepresents one measurement wit
36、h a parallel plate plastometer.12.4 Table 1 lists the precision data. A Type 1 precision, asdefined in Practice D 4483, includes as components of varia-tion, the specimen preparation and testing operation withineach laboratory, but not the mixing or compound preparationcomponents of variation.12.5 T
37、he precision of this test method may be expressed inthe format of the following statements which use an “appro-priate value” of r, R,(r), or (R), that is, that value to be used indecisions about test results (obtained with the test method).The appropriate value is that value of r or R associated wit
38、h amean level in Table 1 closest to the mean level underconsideration (at any given time, for any given material) inroutine testing operations.12.6 RepeatabilityThe repeatability, r, of this test methodhas been established as the appropriate value tabulated in Table1. Two single test results, obtain
39、ed under normal test methodprocedures, that differ by more than this tabulated r (for anygiven level) must be considered as derived from different ornon-identical sample populations.12.7 ReproducibilityThe reproducibility, R, of this testmethod has been established as the appropriate value tabulated
40、in Table 1. Two single test results obtained in two differentlaboratories, under normal test method procedures, that differby more than the tabulated R (for any given level) must beconsidered to have come from different or non-identical samplepopulations.12.8 Repeatability and reproducibility expres
41、sed as a per-cent of the mean level, (r) and (R), have equivalent applicationstatements as above for r and R. For the (r) and (R) statements,the difference in the two single test results is expressed as apercent of the arithmetic mean of the two test results.12.9 BiasIn test method terminology, bias
42、 is the differ-ence between an average test value and the reference (or true)test property value. Reference values do not exist for this testmethod since the values of plasticity and recovery are exclu-sively defined by the test method. Bias, therefore, cannot bedetermined.13.
