1、Designation: D 5964 96 (Reapproved 2001)Standard Practice forRubber IRM 902 and IRM 903 Replacement Oils forASTM No. 2 and ASTM No. 3 Oils1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5964; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the ca
2、se of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONTest Method D 471 was revised in February 1995, establishing IRM 902 and IRM 903 asreplac
3、ements for ASTM No. 2 and No. 3 immersion oils, respectively. Unlike ASTM No. 2 and No.3 oils, the two IRM oils are severely hydrotreated, have a demonstrated negative Ames test and do notrequire cancer warning labels under the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard published inNovember 1983. Although i
4、t was attempted to match the effect of the ASTM oils on rubber propertiesin immersion testing as closely as possible, in general, neither of the IRM oils produces test resultsexactly identical to the ASTM oils it replaced.The selections for replacement oils were made on the basis of an objective com
5、prehensive testprogram as described in this practice and decisions on the data generated in this program were madein open meetings of Subcommittee D11.15. The SAE Committee on Automotive Rubber Specifica-tions (CARS) made a recommendation on the replacement oils that was identical to the decisions m
6、adeby D11.15.This practice addresses the need for establishing a correlation between test results obtained withIRM versus ASTM oils, based on results of the described test program. Although the test program wasquite comprehensive, it cannot begin to address the numerous variations in compound recipe
7、s used inthe rubber industry. Correlations established by this practice may therefore not always providesatisfactory results. In this case it is suggested that other approaches be used, such as a directcomparison of each specific rubber compound in the respective ASTM and IRM oils. All newspecificat
8、ions, including oil immersion testing, shall be established using IRM 902 and IRM 903 inplace of ASTM No. 2 and No. 3 oils, respectively.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers two new immersion oils to be usedas replacements for ASTM No. 2 and No. 3 immersion oils ascalled for in Test Method D 471. The ne
9、w immersion oils willbe designated as IRM 902 as a replacement for ASTM No. 2 oiland IRM 903 as a replacement for ASTM No. 3 oil. The newreference oils have been developed under a new CommitteeD11 policy on reference materials (see Practice D 4678 forbackground on the new policy and procedures).1.2
10、The new oils, IRM 902 and IRM 903, are similar but notfully equivalent to ASTM No. 2 and ASTM No. 3 oil,respectively.1.3 This practice gives the necessary background and detailson the changeover from the previous oils to the new oils. SeeAnnex A1 for additional information on the commercial oilssele
11、cted to replace the two ASTM oils and the test programconducted for this selection process. The changeover fromASTM to IRM oils is proposed in two steps:1.3.1 Step 1A transition phase that makes use of theEquivalent Volume Swell (EVS) for each of the two replace-ment oils. EVS(902) is the ASTM No. 2
12、 percent volume swellvalue calculated from the measured percent volume swell valueusing IRM 902 as the immersion liquid. A similar calculationcan be used to calculate the analogous EVS(903) value. EitherEVS value is obtained as a correction of the measured IRM 902or 903 percent volume swell value. T
13、he EVS values may beused to determine if volume swell specifications are met whenthe specifications are expressed in terms of ASTM No. 2 or No.3 limits, and1.3.2 Step 2A longer term policy change or conversion ofspecifications from ASTM No. 2 and No. 3 values to IRM 902and 903 values.1.4 The EVS val

23、. Significance and Use3.1 The two reference immersion oils described in thispractice are required for the development of oil-resistant rubbercompounds for use in environments where contact withpetroleum-based solvents and oils is encountered. Tests fortensile strength, percent elongation at break, h
24、ardness, andpercent volume swell are performed after a specified immer-sion time period (at a specified temperature) in the evaluationof oil-resistant rubbers. The results of such testing by rubberproduct manufacturers and their customers are used to developoil-resistant rubbers or compounds, or bot
25、h.3.2 Testing with ASTM Oils No. 2 and No. 3 is used toverify compliance with purchase specifications which refer-ence the oil-resistant classes of rubbers and elastomers listed inTable 6 of Classification D 2000. These oils are also used incomparative performance evaluation testing of O-rings andO-
26、ring compounds as cited in Test Methods D 1414. The use ofthese reference oils is required for the development andselection of oil-resistant rubber compounds having acceptableor optimum performance characteristics, or both.4.

27、ected to replace ASTM No. 2 and ASTMNo. 3 immersion oils have commercial names.7These new oilswere selected on the basis of the closest match to ASTM No.2 and ASTM No. 3 oils in the comprehensive evaluationprogram as outlined in Annex A1.4.2 The (petroleum) specifications and typical properties ofIR

Converting “ASTM Oil-IRM Oil” Volume SwellValues5.1 Basis of ConversionOne of the important issues forany user of the new IRM oils, especially producer-consumeroperations, is the relationship and conversion of the customaryASTM oil volume swell values for pr
29、oprietary and commercialcompounds to volume swell values for the new IRM oils. Asoutlined in the scope, this can be done on the basis of twoapproaches.5.1.1 Calculating EVS values for IRM 902 or IRM 903 forany commercial compound based on (1) selecting from TableA1.1 and Appendix X1, the compound ne
30、arest to the commer-cial compound in composition, and (2) using the percentdifference (PC d) value for this compound in the conversion orcorrection calculation. This EVS value is an approximatevalue.5.1.2 Organizing a special in-house testing program toobtain volume swell values under the appropriat
31、e conditions(time and temperature of immersion) for the selected ASTMand IRM oils for the proprietary or commercial compounds ofinterest. Once data for both oils are obtained, the relationshipbetween the two oils is established.5.1.3 If needed for future applications, calculations can bemade to corr

42、OrganizationA1.1.1 A comprehensive testing program was organized inearly 1993 to evaluate three candidate immersion oils (com-mercially supplied by different manufacturers) for ASTM No.2 oil and three candidate oils for ASTM No. 3 oil. The programconsisted of evaluating each of the candidate oils al
43、ong withthe reference ASTM oil for their influence on compoundphysical properties in twelve typical oil-resistant rubber com-pounds, each prepared with a different rubber. Four propertieswere measured after 70 h immersion for each of the com-pounds: tensile strength, in MPa and percent elongation in
