34、n system is as follows: thedesignation PC0214 indicates:PC = polycarbonate as found in Terminology D1600,02 = polycarbonate copolymer-flame retarded (group),1 = general purpose (class), and4 = requirements given in Table PC.4.1.1 To facilitate the specification of new, special, orrecycled materials,
35、 the “other” category (0) for class or grade,or both, is used as indicated in Table PC. The properties ofthese materials are specified using Tables A, B, or R as theyapply.4.2 Reinforced, pigmented, filled, and lubricated versions ofpolycarbonate materials are classified in accordance withTables PC
36、and A, B, or R. Table PC is used to specify basicmaterials. Table A or B is used to specify the propertyrequirements after the addition of reinforcement, pigments,fillers, or lubricants at the nominal level indicated (see 4.2.1).Table R is used for recycled materials.4.2.1 Asingle letter is used to
37、indicate the major category ofthe reinforcement, along with two numbers indicating thenominal percentage of additive(s) by mass, with the tolerancesas tabulated as follows:Category MaterialTolerance(Based on the Total Mass)C carbon and graphite fiber-reinforced2 percentage pointsG glass-reinforced15

42、stem.NOTE 4An example of this classification system for reinforcedpolycarbonate material is as follows: the designation PC0110G10A22230indicates:PC0110 = general-purpose polycarbonate from Table PC,G10 = glass reinforced at nominal 10 % level,A = Table A property requirements,2 = 60-MPa tensile stre
43、ngth, min,2 = 3000-MPa flexural modulus, min,2 = 80-J m Izod impact strength, min,3 = 125C deflection temperature, min, and0 = unspecified.If no properties are specified, the designation is PC0110G10A00000.4.3 Table B has been incorporated into this classificationsystem to facilitate the classificat
44、ion of special materials whereTable PC or Table A do not reflect the required properties.Table B shall be used in the same manner as Table A.NOTE 5The mechanical properties of polycarbonates can be affectedby the amounts and types of additives and colorants used. The most oftenobserved effect is a c
45、hange in the ductility of the material as evidenced inreductions of up to 90 % in Izod impact strength and 25 % or more intensile elongation. A classification using Table PC and Table B should beused if properties of pigmented or specially formulated polycarbonatesneed to be specified.NOTE 6An examp
46、le of the use of this classification system for aspecial polycarbonate material is as follows: the designationPC0110B34720 indicates:PC0110 = general-purpose polycarbonate from Table PC,B = Table B property requirements,3 = 60-MPa tensile strength, min,4 = 2100-MPa flexural modulus, min,7 = 640-J m
47、Izod impact strength, min,2 = 105C deflection temperature, min, and0 = unspecified.NOTE 7The short- and long-term mechanical properties of polycar-bonate materials can be affected adversely by their prior processing aswell as end-use exposure to chemicals, weathering, and secondaryfinishing steps. E
48、fforts to reuse materials may include direct feedback intothe system from which they are generated, or they could involve isolationfor reuse at other times into other processes or parts. Most manufacturersliterature contains recommendations regarding direct feedback practices toaid the user in maint
49、aining the properties of the original materials as muchas possible. When polycarbonate resins are isolated and reprocessed inconjunction with fillers, additives, colorants, etc., there is a special riskthat the properties of the final products may not be equal to those obtainedwhen “virgin” resins are used. While the test specimen properties calledout in this classification system may be used to screen these materials, theuser should take precautions to ensure that parts made from thesematerials meet the
