Conditioning and Test Conditions All test values indicated herein are based on material conditioned in a controlled atmosphere of 23 +/- 2 C and 50 +/- 5 % relative humidity

5、for not less than 24 h prior to testing and tested under the same conditions unless otherwise specified. Procedure 1. Mount the arm rest on the test fixture as shown in Figure No. 1. Place the fixture on the base of the universal tester and adjust the arm rest so that it is parallel with the base of

6、 the tester. 2. Position the compression foot over the test area. FORD LABORATORY TEST METHOD BO 113-03 Page 2 of 3 Copyright 2001, Ford Global Technologies, Inc. 3. Apply a 4.5 newton preload and set the dial gage to zero. Deflect the test specimen 25 % at a rate of 50 +/- 12 mm/min, based on the f

7、oam thickness and the cover material as specified on the engineering drawing. 4. Immediately read and record the number of newtons required to deflect the specimen 25 %. This represents the normal compression - deflection value as specified in the engineering document. 5. Without stopping the machin

Report as % load loss as specified on the engineering drawing. % load loss = R 1 R 2 x 100 R1 R1 = original 25 %
