2、age 1 of 6 ELASTOMERIC PARTS, INTERIOR PERFORMANCE WSS-M9P8-B 1. SCOPE The performance characteristics defined by this specification may be used to evaluate the environmental resistance of elastomeric parts in the passenger compartment. 2. APPLICATION This specification was released originally to be

3、 used in conjunction with industry standards or material specifications to provide a coherent structure for all environmental testing of elastomeric parts. An elastomeric part is defined as a material with a Durometer A hardness of 90 and below (Such as Soft TPEs TPE-V, SEBS, TEEE, TPU, etc) which f

This includes not only all attaching points, but also any boundary conditions that may restrict movement, unless otherwise specified by the affected Materials Engineering Activity. The retention methods, attachments, and supporting garnish moldings (if any), shall be the same as p

9、roposed for production. Test Procedure Visually evaluate the part before, during, and after the test. Measure the part and record data at all specified locations at room temperature before and after cycling on the production support foundation or test fixture. Also, during 3.4.1 “Short Term Heat and

10、 Cold Cycle“ testing, visually evaluate the part and measure any significant characteristic locations only, during the last half-hour of each cold and hot extreme temperature period. Subject the number of assemblies specified to each of the cycles that follow in paragraphs 3.5.1 and 3.5.2. Automated

11、 programmable test cycles based on the listed test conditions may be accepted by prior agreement with the affected Materials Engineering Activity. Ramp speed 1 to 5 C per minute.
