16、specimens with respect to theproperty of interest.3.1.6 oxidative induction time (OIT), nthe elapsed timebetween first exposure to an oxidizing gas and the onset tooxidation of a material under isothermal conditions.3.1.6.1 DiscussionOxidative induction time is an indextest parameter dependent upon
17、a wide range of experimentalconditions including temperature, pressure of oxygen, purgegas flow rate, and the presence or absence of catalysts.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The specimen to be tested and the corresponding refer-ence material are heated from room temperature at a constantrate in a non-
18、purging, high-pressure oxygen environment at adefined pressure. When the specified temperature has beenreached, the specimen is then held at that temperature until theoxidative reaction is displayed on the thermal curve. The OITis the time interval from the start of the temperature programtest to th
19、e onset of the oxidative reaction.4.2 In this procedure, an elevated pressure of oxygen is usedto accelerate the reaction and to reduce analysis time.4.3 Unless otherwise specified, the temperature used in thistest method shall be 150C, and the chamber pressure is to bemaintained at 3.4 MPa 500 psi
20、using a constant volume testcondition.5. Significance and Use5.1 The oxidative induction time is a characteristic of acompounded polyolefin product that is dependent not only onthe type and amount of additives present, but also on the typeof resin. In well-behaved systems, this test method can be us
21、edas a quality control measure to monitor the stabilization ingeosynthetics as received from a supplier.5.2 When this test method is used to compare differentgeomembrane formulations containing different antioxidantpackages, then those results shall be considered valid only atthe temperature of test
22、.5.3 This test method is intended as an geosynthetic test. Useof the OIT value to estimate the lifetime of the geomembranefrom which the test specimen is taken is not addressed nor shallit be used for this purpose.5.3.1 The OIT measurement is an accelerated thermal agingtest and, as such, interpreta
23、tion of resulting data may bemisleading if done by an inexperienced operator. Cautionshould be exercised in data interpretation since oxidationreaction kinetics are a function of temperature and the proper-ties of the additives contained in the geosynthetic sample. Forexample, OIT values are often u
24、sed to select optimum resinformulations. Certain antioxidants, however, may generatepoor OIT results even though they may be adequate at theirintended use temperature and vice versa.5.4 This test method can be used for other purposes such asmanufacturing control and research and development.5.5 Oxid
25、ation induction time is strongly dependent upontest temperature and the partial pressure of oxygen. The higherthe test temperature or the oxygen partial pressure, or both, theshorter the oxidation induction time.5.5.1 The use of high test temperature, however, may havedeleterious effects. The first
26、of these is the potential volatiliza-tion of additive packages used to stabilize the test materials.The second is the potential for the influence of chemicalmechanisms which are not significant at end-use operationconditions.5.5.2 This test method uses high oxygen pressure to accel-erate the test pe
27、riod while making use of lower test tempera-tures to protect additive packages.5.6 The results from this test method may or may notcorrelate with those obtained by other OIT measurements suchas Test Method D3895 or Test Methods D4565.6.

34、D5885M 1528. Precautions8.1 Oxygen is a strong oxidizer that vigorously acceleratescombustion. Keep oil and grease away from equipment usingor containing oxygen.8.2 The stainless steel tube connecting the high-pressurecell to the oxygen cylinder must be thoroughly cleaned byhexane (or acetone) and t
35、hen dried before being connected tothe cell.8.3 All specimen holders should be cleaned by washingwith hexane (or acetone) and then drying before being used inthe test.8.4 The use of pressurized oxygen requires appropriate andcareful handling procedures. The user of this test method shallbe familiar
36、with the precautions described in Guide G88.9. Sampling9.1 Using a bore hole cutter, cork borer, or punch, cutseveral 6.3-mm 0.25-in. round specimen from the geosyn-thetic test sample.9.2 Compression mold these assembled parts into a uniformplaque to a thickness of 0.25 mm 10 mil (see PracticeD4703)
37、.NOTE 4The temperature at which molding takes place may be at orabove the test temperature of this test method. Prolonged exposure to airat these temperatures may induce a negative bias into OIT measurement.Molding should be performed at as low a temperature and as quickly aspossible to minimized th
38、is bias.9.3 Cut test specimens from the plaque using a 6.3-mm0.25-in. bore hole cutter or punch.10. Calibration10.1 Using Test Method E967, temperature calibrate thedifferential scanning calorimeter using indium metal and aheating rate of 1C/min from 145 to 165C.10.1.1 Perform the calibration step a
39、t least once a month orwhenever changes have occurred in the experimental setup.11. ProcedureNOTE 5Procedures for preparing the test specimen may be differentfor different polyolefin geosynthetic products, for example,geomembranes, geonets, geogrids, or geotextiles.11.1 Prepare a specimen with a mas
40、s of 5 6 1 mg.11.2 Place the weighed specimen into the cleaned specimenpan.11.3 Place the specimen and reference pans into the cell.NOTE 6Open pans are used in this test method.11.4 Secure the top plate of the test chamber and tighten thecell system.11.5 Close the pressure release valve and the outl
41、et valve.Open the inlet and pressurize the cell to 4.3 MPa 500 psioxygen. Close the inlet valve.11.6 Commence programmed heating of the specimen fromambient temperature to 150C at a rate of 20C/min. Zero timeis taken at the initiation of the temperature program. Hold thetemperature isothermally at 1
42、50C until the oxidative exother-mic peak is detected.At the same time, the thermal curve of theentire test is being recorded. Other test temperature may beused, with the agreement of all parties concerned, but must bereported.11.7 A slight gain in pressure at the beginning of the test isanticipated
43、as the temperature of the cell increases. Decreasethe pressure back to 3.4 MPa 500 psi by slightly opening thepressure release valve until the pressure comes down to 3.4MPa. Alternatively, if the pressure increase with an instrumentis known, pressurize the test cell to a slightly lower value sothat
44、the pressure in the cell is 3.4 MPa 500 psi at theconclusion of the heating ramp cycle to test temperature.NOTE 7150C is the temperature typically used for polyethylenebased material and 170C for polypropylene-based materials.NOTE 8The time to onset of oxidation varies with stabilizer packageand may
45、 be more than 900 min. For a first-time specimen, the isothermaltime period of 1000 min is suggested.NOTE 9The DSC cell should be cleaned by holding the cell at atemperature of 400C for 3 min under air or oxygen atmosphere.12. Analysis Response12.1 Plot the data with the heat flow signal on the y-ax
46、is,versus time on the x-axis.12.2 Determine the value for OIT in the following manner:12.2.1 Plot data with a y-axis sensitivity sufficient to showthe full oxidative exotherm. A full-scale sensitivity of 5 W/g isusually adequate.12.2.2 Extend the horizontal baseline generated prior to theonset to ox
47、idation.NOTE 10For the oxidation exotherm containing a small shoulder peakat the beginning of oxidation, a sigmoidal baseline may be moreappropriate than the straight baseline.12.2.3 Draw a tangent at the inflection point of the exother-mic peak and extend this tangent to intersect with the baseline
48、.12.2.4 The time at the intersection, measured from theinitiation of the temperature program from ambient tempera-ture is the onset of oxidative degradation and is taken as theOIT value.12.2.5 Measure the OIT as shown in Fig. 1.12.3 Report the OIT for a single specimen.NOTE 11If replicate tests are
49、required by the parties involved, a meanvalue shall be calculated as being representative of the material beingevaluated.13.
