SCOPE The material defined by this specification is a formed sheet, vacuum formed or injection molded thermoplastic material based on polypropylene copolymer.

3、2. APPLICATION WSS-M4D1028-A2: This specification was released originally for material used for B pillar reinforcement applications. WSS-M4D1028-A3: This specification was released originally for material used for seat belt buckle covers. 2.1 LIMITATIONS WSS-M4D1028-A2: This material does not contai

4、n UV stabilizers, long term exposure to direct sunlight will cause chalking and loss of gloss. WSS-M4D1028-A3: This material is UV stable only when molded with color concentrate containing UV stabilizers. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 APPROVED SOURCES This specification requires the use of approved sources. O

5、nly the sources identified on the Ford Approved Source List (ASL) can be used when this specification is listed on the drawing, CAD file, or other documents. The list of approved sources is located within Ford at or available externally through a Ford Materials Engineer. 3.2 CONDITIONING AND TESTIN

6、G All test values are based on material conditioned for not less than 24 h prior to testing in a controlled environment of 23 +/- 2 C and 50 +/- 5% relative humidity. Testing of the material should occur in the conditioning environment or soon after removal. 3.3 INFRARED SPECTROPHOTOMETRY AND/OR THE

7、RMAL ANALYSIS IR spectra and thermograms from initial material approval shall constitute the reference standard and shall be kept on file at the designated material laboratory. The material supplier shall ensure that all future material supplied to the specification shall produce IR spectra and ther

8、mograms that correspond to the reference standard when tested under the same conditions. 3.4 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTION MATERIALS 3.4.1 Many 4D resin specifications prior to 2011, identified certain requirements with the symbol (s), which indicated that the mean and +/- 3 sigma values were

9、 to be reported. The specification minimum, maximum or range was established using 3 sigma data. For 2011 ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATION WSS-M4D1028-A2/A3 Copyright 2018, Ford Global Technologies, LLC Page 2 of 8 and beyond, refer to Table 1 for number of samples required for each test. 3.4.2 Th

10、is specification is based on virgin material and does not allow the addition of recycled content (PIR/PCR). 3.4.3 The use of regrind is permitted, for economic / environmental reasons. Part manufacturers using this specification must complete DV and PV testing with the allowable amount of regrind an

11、d the maximum allowable regrind content must be specified on the engineering drawing. Any changes to what is specified on the drawing (no specific amount implies zero regrind) must be approved by Materials and PD Engineering through the formal Ford Motor Company process (SREA) or Engineering Notice.
