Sample and Specimen Requirements4.1 Unless otherwise required by the detailed product speci-fications, take the rubber tapes at random from each shipmentas follows:Number of Rollsin ShipmentNumber of SampleRolls50 to 200 2201 to 500 3501 to 1000 41001 to 5000 54.2 For shipments in e
15、xcess of 5000 rolls, take one addi-tional roll for each additional 1000 rolls or fraction thereof.4.3 A shipment consists of material shipped or intended forshipment to a customer and covered by one bill of lading.4.4 Test each sample roll in conformance to all requirementsof the specification.4.5 A
16、ll test methods in this standard are intended to producea single value for a single roll. Any reference to averaging ofmeasurements refers to test averaging on a single roll and notto the average of all sample rolls.4.6 Remove and discard at least 610 mm (24 in.) of the outerlayer of each roll befor
17、e taking test specimens.4.7 Remove the test specimen from the roll at a slow,uniform rate without jerking.CONDITIONING5. Significance and Use5.1 The physical and electrical properties, including breakstrength, elongation, dielectric strength, dissipation factor,permittivity, fusion, etc., will vary
18、with temperature andmoisture content. Control the temperature and moisture contentof the sample for these test methods to yield consistent andreproducible results.6. Procedure6.1 For referee purposes, subject the rolls to standardatmospheric conditions of 23 6 2 C (73.4 6 3.6 F) and 50 62 % relative
19、 humidity for a minimum period of 16 h beforespecimens are removed for test.6.2 Unless otherwise specified, condition all test specimensfor a period of 1 h and conduct the tests in a standard laboratoryatmosphere at 23 6 2 C (73.4 6 3.6 F) and 50 6 2 % relativehumidity.FUSION7. Significance and Use7
20、.1 Fusion is responsible for holding the tape in place toform a permanent compressive force about a conductor orinsulator in actual application.8. Apparatus8.1 Winding FixtureThe winding fixture is designed tohold a metal rod at each end and is fitted with a crank or otherdevice to rotate the rod so
21、 that the specimen may be woundthereon. Attach the fixture to a rigid support with the rod heldin a horizontal position.8.2 RodsAny suitable metal of 3-mm (0.125-in.) diameterand a minimum of 229 mm (9.0 in.) in length.8.3 Rule, graduated in inches, 762-mm (30-in.) minimumlength.8.4 Rule, graduated
22、in 0.4 mm (164 in.).8.5 Razor Blades.8.6 Board, with 3-mm (0.125-in.) diameter holes spacedabout 50 mm (2 in.) apart on its surface to provide a base forsupporting the rods in a near-vertical position.9. Procedure9.1 Prepare three specimens by cutting three strips of tape280 mm (11 in.) in length fr
23、om the sample roll selected andconditioned in accordance with Sections 4-6. Prepare and windspecimens in a manner that prevents oils or other contaminantsfrom getting on the bonding surface of the tape.9.2 Mount the rod horizontally in the winding fixture.9.3 Attach the strip of tape near one end of
24、 the rod bywinding the strip upon itself using 25 mm (1 in.) of the tape.Place the 762-mm (30-in.) rule next to the 254-mm (10-in.)tape strip. Stretch the tape strip to the desired length corre-sponding to percent elongation as specified in the productspecification (Specification D 4388, Table 1).9.
25、4 Move the tape to the proper angle and rotate the rod sothat the tape is wrapped on the rod with a one-half lap for alength of 178 mm (7.0 in.). Maintain enough hand pressure atthe end of the tape strip as it is wound around the mandrel toensure that it does not retract from its original elongation
26、during the winding process. Care must be taken to avoid usingso much hand pressure as to further stretch the tape as it iswound.9.5 Change the angle of the tape and repeat the procedure in9.4 winding back toward the start of the first wrap so that thesecond one-half overlap wrap is wound over the fi
27、rst wrap toprovide a four layer build-up of tape.9.6 After the final wrap, maintain constant pressure on thetape strip and score the tape with a new razor blade at the topof the rod, parallel to the rod. Break the tape on the score line,removing the tab. Remove the test specimen from the fixtureand
28、roll the specimen so formed between the palm of the handsfor 5 to 10 s, being sure to roll up or down the entire length ofthe specimen. This completes the preparation of the testspecimen.9.7 Insert the wrapped specimen in the holes in the base ofthe board and allow them to condition at 23.0 6 2 C (7
29、3.4 63.6 F) and 50 6 2 % relative humidity for 24 h. At the end ofthis period, if there is any flagging (end-lifting) of the tape,measure the length of the flag to the nearest 0.4 mm (164 in.),taking care not to cause additional unwrapping in the measur-ing operation Record the maximum, minimum and
30、averagelength of the flag.D432508210.

38、sion. Noactivity has been planned to develop such information.16.2 BiasThis test method has no bias because the valuesare determined solely in terms of this test method itself.TENSILE STRENGTH AND ELONGATION17. Significance and Use17.1 The tensile strength of the tape is an important measureof unifo
39、rmity, quality, and ability to withstand stress in service.17.2 The elongation of a tape is important as a measure ofuniformity and quality and provides a rough indication of howmuch a workman may stretch the tape in use for splicing,terminating, and repairing of wires and cables.18. Test Specimen18
40、.1 The test sample consists of a single layer of tape that isapproximately 610 mm (24 in.) long, with the removableseparator removed. Select and condition in accordance withSections 4-6.19. Procedure19.1 Perform the tests for tensile strength and elongation inaccordance with Test Methods D 412, with
41、 the followingexceptions:19.1.1 Cut five test specimens from a single ply of tape(rubber and separator) that is free from visible defects using theASTM standard die, as shown in Fig. 1 (Die A) of TestMethods D 412, except that the ends of the specimen cut froma 19-mm (0.75-in.) tape need not be full
42、 width. Place benchmarks on the specimens as directed in Test Methods D 412.19.1.2 Measure the thickness in accordance with 14.2,removing the separator where it is not an integral part of thetape. Record the appropriate thickness.19.1.3 Where jaw breaks occur, discard the results andretest.20. Repor

Precision and Bias21.1 See precision and bias statements of Test MethodsD 412 for general discussion of precision and bias of this test.21.2 PrecisionThis test meth
44、od has been in use for manyyears, but no information has been presented to ASTMInternational upon which to base a statement of precision. Noactivity has been planned to develop such information.21.3 BiasThis test method has no bias because the valuesfor tensile strength and elongation are determined
45、 solely interms of this test method itself.DISSIPATION FACTOR AND PERMITTIVITY22. Significance and Use22.1 The dissipation factor and permittivity of an electri-cally insulating rubber tape are properties of the material whichare important when it is used as high-voltage insulation.D432508322.2 Meas
