Any reference to averagin
17、g 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 before taking test specimens.4.7 Remove the test specimen from the roll at a slow,uniform rate without jerking.CONDITION
18、ING5. Significance and Use5.1 The physical and electrical properties, including breakstrength, elongation, dielectric strength, dissipation factor,permittivity, fusion, etc., will vary with temperature andmoisture content. Control the temperature and moisture contentof the sample for these test meth
19、ods 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 humidity for a minimum period of 16 h beforespecimens are removed for test.6.2 Unless otherwise specified, conditi
20、on 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 Use7.1 Fusion is responsible for holding the tape in place toform a permanent compressive force about a conductor orins
21、ulator 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 to allow the specimen to be woundthereon. Attach the fixture to a rigid support with the rod heldin a horizontal posi
22、tion.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 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.) apar
23、t 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 from the sample roll selected andconditioned in accordance with Sections 46. Prepare andwind specimens in a manner th
24、at prevents oils or othercontaminants from 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 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
25、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 D4388, Table 1).9.4 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
26、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 elongationduring the winding process. Care must be taken to avoid usingso much hand pressure as to further stretch the tape as
27、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 first wrap toprovide a four layer build-up of tape.9.6 After the final wrap, maintain constant pressure on thetape stri
28、p 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 roll the specimen so formed between the palm of the handsfor 5 to 10 s, being sure to roll up or down the entire leng
29、th 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 (73.4 63.6 F) and 50 6 2 % relative humidity for 24 h. At the end ofthis period, if there is any flagging (end-lifting)
30、 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 averagelength of the flag.D4325 13210.

38、. Precision and Bias16.1 PrecisionThis test method 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.16.2 BiasThis test method has no bias because the valuesar

Significance and Use17.1 The tensile strength of the tape is an important measureof uniformity, quality, and ability to withstand stress in service.17.2 The elongation of a tape is important as a measure ofuni
40、formity and quality and provides a rough indication of howmuch a workman will be able to stretch the tape in use forsplicing, terminating, and repairing of wires and cables.18. Test Specimen18.1 The test sample consists of a single layer of tape that isapproximately 610 mm (24 in.) long, with the re
41、movableseparator removed. Select and condition in accordance withSections 46.19. Procedure19.1 Perform the tests for tensile strength and elongation inaccordance with Test Methods D412, with the followingexceptions:19.1.1 Cut five test specimens from a single ply of tape(rubber and separator) that i
42、s free from visible defects using theASTM standard die, as shown in Fig. 1 (Die A) of TestMethods D412, except that the ends of the specimen cut froma 19-mm (0.75-in.) tape need not be full width. Place benchmarks on the specimens as directed in Test Methods D412.19.1.2 Measure the thickness in acco
43、rdance 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. Report20.1 Report the following information:20.1.1 Average breaking strength expressed in MPa (psi),and20.1.2 Average
44、 percent elongation.21. Precision and Bias21.1 See precision and bias statements of Test MethodsD412 for general discussion of precision and bias of this test.21.2 PrecisionThis test method has been in use for manyyears, but no information has been presented to ASTMInternational upon which to base a
45、 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 solely interms of this test method itself.D4325 133DISSIPATION FACTOR AND PERMITTIVITY22.
