Saige, FNA Controlled document at www.MATS Copyright 2017 Ford Global Technologies, LLC Page 1 of 7 POLYETHYLENE (PE) HIGH DENSITY MOLDING COMPOUND, WSS-M4D695-B1 WASHER FLUID RESERVOIR 1. SCOPE The material defi

2、ned by this specification is a thermoplastic high density molding compound based on polyethylene. 2. APPLICATION This specification was released originally for a blow molded high density polyethylene material used for windshield washer fluid reservoirs. 2.1 LIMITATIONS This material does not contain

3、 UV stabilizers, long term exposure to direct sunlight will cause chalking and loss of gloss. This material is susceptible to fluid stress cracking and high mold shrinkage. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 APPROVED SOURCES This specification requires the use of approved sources. Only the sources identified on th

4、e 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 TEST CONDITIONS All test values are ba

5、sed 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 THERMAL ANALYSIS IR spectra

6、 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 thermograms that correspond

7、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 to be reported. The spe

8、cification 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. ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATION WSS-M4D695-B1 Copyright 2017, Ford Global Technologies, LLC Page 2 of 7 3.4.2 The use of regrind is permitte

9、d, for economic / environmental reasons. Part manufacturers using this specification must complete DV and PV testing with the allowable amount of regrind and the maximum allowable regrind content must be specified on the engineering drawing. Any changes to what is specified on the drawing (no specif
