Physical Requirements8.1 The material shall conform to the requirements forphysical properties prescribed in Tables 1-3.9. Inspection9.1 Inspection of

16、 the material shall be agreed upon inwriting by the purchaser and the seller as part of the purchasecontract.9.2 Testing for conformance to requirements shall be donein accordance with the appropriate sections of Test MethodsD 3574. The specific test methods in this reference to be usedfor each test

17、 shall be as listed in Tables 1-3, except as specifiedin 9.3. Burning tests in the reference are listed in Table 4.9.3 If a specimen 380 by 380 by 100 mm (15 by 15 by 4 in.)cannot be obtained, an appropriate size, as well as its corre-sponding indentation force deflection (IFD) value, shall beagreed

18、 upon between the purchaser and the seller. In thosecases where foams having thicknesses of 100 mm (4 in.) arenot available, the following reduced IFD values are suggested:Thickness 25 % IFD 65 % IFD75 mm (3 in.) 88 % 88 % of 100 mm (4 in.) IFD value50 mm (2 in.) 78 % 76 % of 100 mm (4 in.) IFD valu

19、e25 mm (1 in.) 68 % 62 % of 100 mm (4 in.) IFD valueIn all cases, the IFD tolerances specified in Table 1 shallapply. For example, a 50-mm (2-in.) thick Grade 120-N (12kg/27-lb) foam will have a 25 % IFD value of 94 6 14 N(21.06 3.0 lbf) = 80 to 108 N (18.0 to 24.0 lbf).9.3.1 If an IFD specimen cann

20、ot be obtained, an approxi-mation from the 50 % CFD in accordance with Test MethodsD 3574 to a 100-mm (4-in.) IFD can be made using thefollowing equation:IFD 5 CFD 3 A 1 B!IFD Deflection25 % 40 % 65 %A 1.397 2.382 5.32B 82.31 93.84 87.92This conversion may be useful in the carpet cushion,packaging,

Packaging, Marking, and Labeling11.1 PackagingThe material shall be packed in standardcommercial contain

22、ers, so constructed as to ensure acceptanceby common or other carriers for safe transportation at thelowest rate to the point of delivery, unless otherwise specifiedin the contract or order.11.2 MarkingThe shipping container shall be markedwith the name, type, and quality of material in accordance w
