ASTM D6287-2005 Standard Practice for Cutting Film and Sheeting Test Specimens《切片和压片试验样品的标准操作规程》.pdf

1、Designation: D 6287 05Standard Practice forCutting Film and Sheeting Test Specimens1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6287; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in

2、parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This practice covers equipment and techniques forcutting film and sheeting specimens for testing.2The speci-mens are nick-free, non-stretched a

3、nd can be rapidly prepared.1.2 The values given in SI units are to be considered thestandard. The values given in brackets are for information only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this st

4、andard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.NOTE 1There is no similar or equivalent ISO standard.2.

Significance and Use3.1 Many test methods including Test Methods D 882,D 2838 and F88require the use of narrow strips of varyinglength. The

6、quality of the sample preparation directly affectstest results. This practice describes two techniques for prepar-ing samples with straight, clean, parallel edges with no visibleimperfections.NOTE 2After cutting, each specimen should be examined visually toinsure the edges are undamaged (free of nic

7、ks). On a periodic basisspecimen edge quality should be evaluated by microscopic examination.To determine when cutting blades need to be replaced or sharpened, acontrol chart of tensile strength and percent elongation at break (see TestMethod D 882) of a uniform material may be maintained. Tensile s

8、trengthand percent elongation at break will decrease as the quality of specimencutting decreases.4. Apparatus and Materials4.1 Procedure AA hand rotatable drum cutter (Fig. 1)containing a 12.7 cm 5 in. diameter drum with grooves at12.7 mm 0.5 in. intervals and a blade holder allowing a bladeto ride

9、in each groove or be raised above the groove.4NOTE 3Plas-Tech in Boston offered a rotary drum cutter in the 1950sand 1960s which was shown to be an excellent instrument with respect toyielding nick free non-stretched film specimen(s) at high rates.5However,Plas-Tech disappeared in the late 1960s and

Thistype of cutter has been redesigned to meet current government regulationsand retain its original desirable characteristics plus additional improve-ments.4.2 Procedure BA dual blade shear cutter (Fig. 2) withparallelism tolerances within 0.0254 mm 0.001 in. The cuttercuts i

11、ndividual strips of a particular sample width.4.3 Scissors.4.4 Marker.4.5 Tape.5. Procedure5.1 Procedure A:5.1.1 Cut film or sheeting (with scissors) approximately 30by 30 cm 12 by 12 in. or desired size within these dimen-sions. It is recommended to cut only an individual (single)sheet of film.5.1.

12、2 Mark or number all samples as to identity, directionwith respect to material flow, etc.5.1.3 Place sample on work surface in desired direction andplace a strip of tape on the sample edge with half the width ofthe tape overlapping the edge to enable the tape to adhere to thedrum of the cutter.5.1.4

13、 Remove the taped sample from the work surface andplace taped edge on the drum of the cutter below the bladeholder allowing the sample to lie across the top of the cutter.1This practice is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D20 on Plastics andis the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D20.19

Continue to turn the drum and smooth the sample on thedrum.5.1.6 Tape the free corners of sample

19、 if necessary.5.1.7 Align tape with cutter blades.5.1.8 Pull blade knob to drop blades just in front of tape.5.1.9 Rotate the drum with the drum handle.5.1.10 Raise blades by lifting the front edge of the bladeholder until a click is heard.5.1.11 Turn drum handle until strips fall away from drum.5.1
