Technical requirements for a specific class of sealant or adhesion promoter shall be defined by the AMS. In case of conflict in requirement(s), the AMS takes preced
19、ence over this Aerospace Standard (AS). SAE INTERNATIONAL AS5502D Page 3 of 10 3.1 Date of Manufacturing, Date of Packaging, and Conformance Testing 3.1.1 Date of Manufacturing (DOM) DOM is defined as the last day of Initial Acceptance Tests per 4.2.2 as dated on the applicable test report. 3.1.2 Da
20、te of Packaging (DOP) For sealants, the DOP is defined as the date that bulk sealant is packaged from its components, base compound and curing agent, by the manufacturer or value added distributor (repackager). DOP shall be no more than 90 days from the DOM or the most recent Conformance Testing per
21、 3.1.3. For adhesion promoters, the DOP is defined as the date that the bulk adhesion promoter is packaged into smaller container sizes per AMS3100 Section 5. (Note: The shelf life of the adhesion promoter is based on the DOM per AMS3100 paragraph 3.5). 3.1.3 Conformance Testing (CT) for Packaging E
22、xtensions - Sealant Only CT shall be performed within 90 days of the bulk material DOM to extend the time for packaging material. The material shall be limited to a maximum of two 90 day extensions, and shall be limited to a maximum of 270 days from the DOM. The 1st CT requires performing the Final
23、Acceptance Tests of the applicable AMS. The 1st CT may be performed by the manufacturer or, with the manufacturers approval, by approved value added distributors (repackagers). The 2nd CT requires performing the Initial Acceptance Tests of the applicable AMS, and shall be performed by the manufactur
24、er within 90 days of the 1st Conformance Testing. The following diagram describes the extension procedure for packaging: Figure 1 3.2 Toxicological Formulations The material shall have no adverse effects on the health of personnel when used for its intended purpose in accordance with manufacturers M
25、SDS or SDS and with appropriate handling procedures. Questions pertinent to this effect shall be referred by the contracting activity to the appropriate medical service who will act as an advisor to the contracting agency. 3.3 Quality 3.3.1 Sealant Quality The sealants base compound and curing agent
26、, as received by the purchaser, shall each be of uniform blend and shall be free of excessive air, skins, lumps, and gelled or coarse particles that could interfere with the application of the material and its function. There shall be no separation of ingredients which cannot be easily redispersed.
27、3.3.2 Adhesion Promoter Quality The adhesion promoter, as received by the purchaser, when visually examined, shall be uniform in quality and condition, free of sedimentation and turbidity, and free from foreign materials, particulate matter, and other contaminates detrimental to use of the adhesion
28、promoter. Material packaged in aerosol containers may be sprayed into a clear glass container to determine appearance. SAE INTERNATIONAL AS5502D Page 4 of 10 4. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS 4.1 Responsibility for Inspection The manufacturer of the material shall supply all samples and shall be respo
29、nsible for performance of all required tests. 4.1.1 Source Inspection (Nadcap) Each batch of material procured under specifications referencing this standard shall be third party approved prior to shipment to ensure that material meets acceptance tests (as defined by the specification). Third party
30、approval shall be by a third party accreditation process in accordance with OP 1114 APP SLT (4.12.2). Also, the manufacturer of the sealant or adhesion promoter shall be certified in accordance with AS9100 and hold a third party accreditation in accordance with AC7200/1. Value added distributors (re
31、packagers) and pass-through distributors supplying sealant or adhesion promoter shall supply material from an accredited manufacturer and from a batch of material that has been third party source inspected. Value added distributors shall be certified in accordance with AS9100 and hold a third party
32、accreditation in accordance with AC7202, Pass-through distributors shall be certified in accordance with AS9100 or AS9120. NOTE: For AS9100 and AS9120, any accreditation body under the International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) umbrella using a national Quality Management Systems standard (e.g. BS
33、 EN 9100) is equivalent. 4.1.2 Sampling Shall be in accordance with 4.3.1. 4.2 Classification of Tests 4.2.1 Qualification Tests All technical requirements are qualification tests and shall be performed prior to or on the initial shipment of the material by the manufacturer. Compliance testing is re
34、quired when a change in ingredients and/or processing requires reapproval as in 4.4.2, or when the G-9 QPG (Qualified Products Group) deems it necessary per PD2000, PD2001, and PD2103. The compliance tests will be defined by the G-9 QPG. 4.2.2 Acceptance Tests 4.2.2.1 Initial Acceptance Tests Techni
35、cal requirements that are tested on each batch of material are initial acceptance tests. Initial acceptance tests are performed after production, but before repackaging. 4.2.2.2 Final Acceptance Tests Final acceptance tests shall be performed on each lot of material after packaging or repackaging as
36、 applicable. 4.2.2.2.1 Final Acceptance Tests for Sealant Can Kits (Cans, Pails, or Drums) 4.2.2.2.1.1 No final acceptance tests are required. 4.2.2.2.1.2 A fill weight check must be performed on a minimum of one kit per production run. 4.2.2.2.2 Final Acceptance Tests for Sealant Injection or Mix o
37、n Demand Kits SAE INTERNATIONAL AS5502D Page 5 of 10 4.2.2.2.2.1 Test one kit per base compound/curing agent combination, regardless of how many different sizes of kits are produced, in accordance with the following conditions: a. Dedicated Equipment: If the base compound/curing agent combination is
38、 run on dedicated equipment, kit testing does not need to be repeated if runs are done on different days. b. Non-dedicated Equipment: If another material was used on the equipment, another kit must be tested when the next run begins. c. Hand-filling: If the material is filled by hand, kit testing do
39、es not need to be performed if the same base compound/curing agent combination packaged by another process has been tested. If the base compound/curing agent combination has not been packaged by another process, then a kit must be tested. NOTE: A fill weight check must be done on at least one kit of
40、 each kit size per run. 4.2.2.2.2.2 The following tests are required, unless the AMS directs otherwise: a. Application time b. Tack-free time c. Cure time d.
