2、RIAL 1. SCOPE The material defined by this specification is an instrument panel assembly, instrument panel component, floor console armrest, valence panel, steering wheel airbag cover, hush panel, door panel or wrapped pillar, which utilizes a flexible (soft) cover skin material over a hard substrat

3、e with or without foam or spacer fabric, and with or without a topcoat. 2. APPLICATION This specification was released originally for material used for all soft interior components, not including seat trim covers, molded/foam-in-place armrests and headrests. This specification includes top-coated (a

4、dded for gloss control, haptics and/or cleanability) and in-mold coated (IMC) skins. Instrument panels containing an integrated airbag system must also meet any additional specifications on the Engineering Document. All painted flexible cover skins (through a secondary process) shall meet the requir

5、ements of WSS-M2P188-B1/latest. All soft skins or fabrics for armrests and door panels must also meet the requirements of WSS-M8P3-E1/E2/E3/latest (flexible polymeric films), WSS-M99P43-C/latest (leather) or WSS-M8P18-B1/B2/B3/B4/latest (fabrics). EXCLUDED The following applications are excluded fro

6、m this specification. hard instrument panels, hard door panels, finish panels (WSS-M15P4-Glatest) package trays (WSS-M15P6-E/latest) steering wheels (WSS-M98P12-B/latest) headliners (WSS-M15P27-F/latest) carpeting substrate (WSS-M8P16-B/latest) appliqus (WSS-M15P34-E/latest) sun visors (WSS-M98P3-B/

7、latest) molded headrest (WSS-M15P39-B/latest) molded armrests (WSS-M15P26-D/latest) and interior elastomers (WSS-M9P8-B/latest) Testing must be conducted on parts at DV and PV unless specified otherwise by Ford Engineering. See Tables 1 no spewing, wrinkling, distortion, blistering, warping, delamin

8、ation, blushing, hazing, milking, waviness, or other objectionable visual appearance. Any spotty or non-uniform staining or discoloration shall be cause for rejection. For topcoated polymeric cover skin materials, a color shift that reverses after 16 h Xenon weathering, per 3.8.1 is acceptable 2) Fu

9、nctionally - no excessive expansion, shrinking, or warping that will interfere with normal functional operations. 3) Dimensionally - no movement exceeding what is required on the Engineering drawing from the original installed position during or after the test. Dimensional exceptions to these requir

10、ements may be allowed by Core Engineering. 3.4.1 Short Term Heat, Humidity and Cold Cycle For leather wrapped parts, ensure the component is positioned in the test chamber so no condensation from the test equipment can drip and pool on the part surface during the test cycle. Note that stages do not

11、include ramp times to transition from level to level. Each specimen can have different size, geometry, etc. which impacts ramp times; therefore, each transition period will vary in length of time. Total test time should exceed 38 h due to time required to transition from level to level. 3.4.1.1 Hori
