SCOPE T

3、he material defined by these specifications are polycarbonate and polybutylene terephthalate blended molding compounds. 2. APPLICATION WSK-M4D762-A2 This specification was released originally for material used for painted plastic bumper. WRS-M4D762-A4 This specification was released originally for m

4、aterial used for energy absorber applications and contains recycled content. 2.1 LIMITATIONS Materials approved to WRS-M4D762-A4 are not UV stabilized and should not be used in long term exposure to direct sunlight. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTION MATERIALS Material supplier

5、s and part producers must conform to the Companys Standard Requirements for Production Materials (WSS-M99P1111-A). 3.1.1 Many 4D resin specifications prior to 2011, identified certain requirements with the symbol (s), which indicated that the mean and 3 sigma values were to be reported. The specific

6、ation minimum, maximum or range was established using 3 sigma data. For 2011 and beyond, refer to Table 1 for number of samples required for each test. 3.1.2 WSK-M4D762-A2 is based on virgin materials. 3.1.3 WRS-M4D762-A4 must contain 35% recycled content as defined by WRS-M99P42-A1 (post-consumer a

7、nd/or post industrial recyclates and repolymerised recycled materials). The remaining portion of the material can come from virgin sources. 3.1.4 The use of regrind is permitted, for economic / environmental reasons, with compliance as indicated in WSS-M99P1111-A. 3.1.5 Performance Criteria: Parts u

8、sing this specification shall meet the appropriate SDS requirements. 3.1.6 As specified in WSS-M99P1111-A, paragraph 3.2, Ford Materials Engineering may request a Control Plan and Certificate of Analysis (CoA) containing lot testing requirements which must include, but are not limited to: ENGINEERIN
