This requirement may restrict the use of certain resin systems in this procedure.Misleading results may be obtained when glass fi

Impregnation Procedure10.1 Set up the impregnating apparatus in accordance with Fig. 1.10.2 Cover the ends of the winding fixture using 0.025 mm (0.001 in.) nominal thickness, heat-resistant plastic film, aluminumfoil,

33、 or equivalent parting film.10.3 Prepare a sufficient quantity of an impregnantresin system suitable for impregnating the material under test. Pour theimpregnating mixture into the tank so that the level is about 10 mm (0.39 in.) above the static breaker bars (see Fig. 2).10.4 Immediately prior to t

34、hreading the material through the impregnation apparatus, cut a 1000 6 1-mm (40 6 0.04-in.) skeinof the material under test. Repeat the procedure immediately after winding one set of specimens. Place the two skeins in a mufflefurnace maintained at a temperature that will give complete burn-off (usua

35、lly 450C for 2 h) . h). Remove the two skeins fromthe furnace and place in a desiccator for a minimum of 15 min. Weigh the two skeins to the nearest 0.001 g and record as WeightX.10.5 Select a stripper die of the proper diameter by using the chart or calculations in 12.3.10.6 Thread the glass fiber

36、material through the impregnating apparatus in an “under, over, under” path through the staticspreader bars. Firmly attach the end of the glass fiber to the winding fixture with heat-resistant masking tape. Drape the materialon the winding fixture. Rotate the fixture either manually or at a motorize

37、d rate not exceeding 8 m/min (26 ft/min).FIG. 3 Guide Pulley and Impregnation TankD2343 17410.6.1 Maintain an impregnant-to-glassa resin-to-glass weight ratio of 70 % for the preparation of the test specimens (see Note7).NOTE 7The choice of die and the tex of the fiber will determine the glass conte

38、nt. It may also be affected by the content and is also influenced byviscosity of the resin used. Use the calculations in 12.2 to determine the die size to be used. If the calculated die size does not yield the needed glass-weightratio, then adjustment of the die diameter will be needed.10.6.2 After

39、the required number of specimens are wound, hold the winding tension on the material and use heat-resistantmasking tape to attach the material to the winding fixture. Cut the material after attachment has been made.NOTE 8Optionally, a flat tongue depressor or metal spatula may be used to flatten the

40、 end 100 mm (3.9 in.) of the glass strands. This flattening ofthe gripped portion of the strands allows better clamping of the specimens while minimizing crushing in the grip jaws.10.6.3 Place the loaded winding fixture in a horizontal position in an air-circulating oven at a temperature and for a l

41、ength oftime necessary to cure the resin per manufacturersmanufacturers instructions.After curing, cool to room temperature and removethe specimens from the winding fixture.10.7 Cut the specimens to the required length. Exercise care to prevent damage to the specimens during handling.10.8 Select spe

42、cimens for the test on the basis of their uniformity and freedom from cuts, nicks, or other visible imperfections.Discard any unacceptable specimens. Weigh each specimen selected to the nearest 0.001 g and record as Weight Y.NOTE 9A thorough wetting of the glass fiber is essential to obtaining accep

43、table specimens. It is important that the specimens be examined visuallyto ensure that good wet-out of the fibers by the resin has occurred. If acceptable wet out is not obtained, it shall be is necessary to adjust the configurationof the fibers through the breaker bars in the impregnation bath by c

44、hanging the over under pattern. A note regarding the quality of wet-out is requiredin the report.10.9 If tabbing is to be used, lay out the cut specimens on the template and prepare a suitable quantity of adhesive (epoxy forcardboard; polyester for mat). Place two strips of chopped strand glass fibe

45、r mat (75 mm wide) or cardboard (55 mm wide) at theirlocations on the template on a metal plate and coat them with adhesive. Place the test specimens and then apply two additionalstrips of tabbing material. Place another metal plate on top of the tabs and specimens. Place the template, tabs, specime

46、ns, and plateinto an oven and cure the tab resin at the temperature and duration recommended by the manufacturer. Upon removal from theoven, allow to cool and cut the tabbing to create individual tabbed test specimens. Take care not to damage the impregnated glassspecimens.11. Testing Procedure11.1

47、For testing tensile stress, set the speed of the testing machine at 10 mm/minute.11.2 Adjust the load scale range so that it shall be adequate for the estimated breaking load of the specimen under test.1 Notches for locations for impregnated rods 4 Dimension depending on number of specimens2 Positio

Load the test specimen to failure. Record the ultimate breaking load.11.5 Compute the stress using the equation in 12.3.NOTE 10It is assumed for the purpose of this test that only the glass is involved in the rupturing process.
