Suffix Requirements5.1 When additional requirements are needed that are notcovered by the basic requirements or cell table requirements,they shall be indicated through the use of suffixes.5.2 A list of suffixes is found in Classification SystemD4000 (Table 3) and are to be used for addi

37、tional requirementsas appropriate. Additional suffixes will be added to thatstandard as test methods and requirements are developed andrequested.NOTE 8Properties of pigmented or colored PS materials can differfrom the properties of natural or unpigmented PS material, depending onthe choice of colora

38、nts and the concentration. The main property affectedis ductility, as illustrated by a reduction in Izod impact strength. If specificproperties of pigmented PS materials are necessary, prior testing betweenthe materials supplier and end user should be initiated.6. Basic Requirements6.1 Basic require

39、ments from the property tables or celltables are always in effect unless these requirements aresuperseded by specific suffix requirements, which always takeprecedence.7. General Requirements7.1 The material composition shall be uniform and shallconform to the requirements specified herein.8. Detail

40、Requirements8.1 Test specimens for the various materials shall conformto the requirements prescribed in Tables PS, A, and B, andsuffix requirements as they apply.8.2 For the purpose of determining conformance, all speci-fied limits for a specification (line callout) based on thisclassification syste

41、m are absolute limits, as defined in PracticeE29.8.3 With the absolute method, an observed value or acalculated value is not rounded, but is to be compared directlywith the limiting value. Conformance or nonconformance isbased on this comparison.9. Sampling9.1 Sampling shall be in accordance with th

42、e samplingprocedure prescribed in Practice E105 or statistically adequateto satisfy the requirements of 13.4.9.2 A lot of material shall be considered as a unit ofmanufacture as prepared for shipment, and is allowed toconsist of two or more production runs or batches.10. Sample PreparationInjection-

43、 or Compression-Molding Process10.1 The test specimens shall be molded by an injectionmolding process as follows.10.2 For injection-molded samples, 220 6 10 C is the melttemperature and 50 6 10 C is the mold temperature.10.2.1 The injection velocity for molding specimens shallbe 200 6 100 mm/s. Aver

44、age injection velocity of the flowfront through the critical measurement area of the specimen iscalculated using the following equation:AIV5pd2Va4ns(1)where:D4549 113d = screw diameter, (mm)Va = screw advance speed, (mm/s)n = number of mold cavities, ands = cross-sectional area of the specimen, (mm2

45、)NOTE 9The mold must have balanced flow for this equation to bevalid.10.3 Izod Impact specimens shall be obtained from thecentral portion of a Test Method D638, Type 1 tensile bar. Theapex of the milled notch shall be at the center (within 1 mm)of the tensile bar length. In accordance with Test Meth

46、odsD256, the distance between the apex of the notch and theimpacted end of the specimen shall be 32 6 1 mm, howeverthe length of specimen that is contained within the vise isrequired to be at least 22 mm.10.4 The recommended flexural modulus specimen is a TestMethod D638, Type 1 tensile bar. The loa

47、ding nose of theflexural apparatus shall be placed within 3 mm of the center ofthe tensile bar.11. Conditioning11.1 Test specimens shall be conditioned at 23 6 2C for atleast two hours before performing the required tests.11.2 Conduct tests in the atmosphere of 23 6 2 C.12. Test Methods12.1 Determin

48、e the properties enumerated in this specifica-tion by means of the ASTM test methods as they apply, unlessotherwise stated herein.13. Inspection and Certification13.1 Inspection and certification of the material suppliedwith reference to a specification based on this classificationsystem shall be fo

49、r conformance to the requirements specifiedherein.13.2 Lot-acceptance inspection shall be the basis on whichacceptance or rejection of the lot is made. The lot-acceptanceinspection shall consist of those tests which ensure processcontrol during manufacture: melt flow rate and Izod impact.13.3 Periodic-check inspection shall consist of the testsspecified for all requirements of the material under thisclassification system. Inspection frequency shall be adequate toensure the material is certifiable in accordance with 13.4.13.4 Certification shall be that the
