17、rical components providingelectrical, mechanical, and environmental protection.3.1.3.1 DiscussionThere are two types of electrical insu-lating varnishsolvent-containing and solventless. Thesolvent-containing varnish is solution, dispersion, or emulsionof a polymer or a mixture of polymers in a volat

18、ile, nonre-actable liquid. The solventless type is a liquid resin system freeof volatile, nonreactable solvents.4. Significance and Use4.1 The test methods referenced in these test methods areuseful for control purposes during the manufacture and use ofsolventless varnishes.5. Sampling5.1 Accurate s

19、ampling, whether of the complete contents oronly parts thereof, is extremely important from the standpointof evaluating the quality of the product sampled. In most cases,the detection of contaminants that are not ordinarily disperseduniformly through the liquid being sampled such as water orsolid pa

20、rticles, necessitates taking samples at specific locationswhere the contaminants are likely to be found. For a liquidhaving a specific gravity less than one, water and otherimpurities are most likely to be found on the bottom; whereasin the case of liquids having a specific gravity greater than one,

21、these impurities are most likely to be found on the surface.5.2 Sampling Fluids Exhibiting Newtonian Viscosity:5.2.1 Sample solventless varnishes having an approximateviscosity of 25 cP (0.025 Pas) or less at 100F (37.8C) usingthe sampling device shown in Fig. 1 of Test Method D923.However, if the t

22、emperature of the material is below roomtemperature or if the humidity is above 75 % relative humidity,sample using an aspirator-type sampling device as shown inFig. 2 of Test Method D923.5.2.2 Sample solventless varnishes having a viscosity from25 to 650 cP (0.025 to 0.65 Pas) at 100F (37.8C) and w

23、herecontact with the atmosphere must be avoided, use a pressure-type sampling device as shown in Fig. 3 of Test Method D923.5.2.3 Sample solventless varnishes having a viscosity above650 cP at 100F at 73 6 10F (23 6 5C). Open the containerand mix slowly so as not to entrap air. When the material ish

24、omogeneous, take samples from two or three places on thesurface and mix together.5.3 Sampling Fluids Exhibiting Non-Newtonian Viscosity:5.3.1 Sample solventless varnishes exhibiting non-Newtonian viscosity in accordance with 5.2.3.5.4 Use sample containers and sampling procedures inaccordance with T

25、est Method D923.5.5 When a sampling method is needed to determinewhether a lot meets the requirements of a material specifica-tion, use Practice D3636 as a guide.6. Conditioning6.1 Condition test specimens at standard laboratory condi-tion as specified in Practice D6054.6.2 Deaerate specimens to be

26、used for property evaluationbefore curing using the vacuum technique recommended by thevarnish manufacturer.TEST METHODS7.

30、flameignites the vapor of the specimen in the tester and propagatesa flame across its surface.

31、ions and should not be used todescribe or appraise the fire hazard or fire risk of materials,products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions. However,results of this test may be used as elements of a fire hazardassessment or a fire risk assessment which takes into accountall of the factors whic

32、h are pertinent to an assessment of thefire hazard of a particular end use.8.4 Procedure:8.4.1 Test the materials of 8.1.1 in accordance with TestMethods D93.D4733 03 (2009)28.4.2 Test the materials of 8.1.2 in accordance with TestMethod D3278.8.5 ReportReport information in accordance with therepor
