Amdt 14.3 Width of woven rovings When determined in accordance with 6.6, the actual width of the woven rovings shall, unless otherwise required (see annex A), be the nominal stated width (see annex A) subject to a tolerance of the lesser of +1,5 % or 125 mm. 4.4 Sizing 4.4.1 T
24、he filaments of all rovings comprising the woven rovings shall be coated with a size compatible with the resin which will form the polymer matrix of the ultimate laminate. 4.4.2 Unless otherwise required (see annex A), the size shall incorporate a silane coupling agent.

Amdt 1SANS 1538:2008 Edition 1.2 7 5 Packing and marking 5.1 Packing The woven rovings shall be supplied in rolls, each roll formed by rolling a length of the woven rovings onto a tubular core. Each roll shall con
33、sist of a single, continuous length of the woven rovings so wound, or of an acceptable number of lengths suitably “flagged“, as required. The rolls shall be neat and firm, and the core tubes used shall be sufficiently strong to prevent collapse or telescoping of the rolls during transport and storag
34、e. Each roll shall be individually wrapped such that the woven rovings are effectively protected against damage. Rolls shall be securely packed in parcels or boxes, or in another acceptable form of packing (e.g. specially constructed containers). String shall not be used, except on the outside of th
35、e packing. 5.2 Marking Each roll of woven rovings shall bear the following information in clear, legible and permanent marking, both on the core and on the outer packing: a) the suppliers name or trade mark or both; b) the suppliers identification or code number; c) the nominal mass per unit area; d
36、) the date of manufacture; e) the nominal piece length, in metres; f) the nett mass, in kilograms; g) the gross mass, in kilograms; h) the nominal width of the woven rovings, in metres; and i) the maximum strength direction (warp or weft). The primary wrapping of each roll and of each container shal
37、l bear a warning to the effect that rolls of woven rovings shall not be stood or dropped on end. 6 Inspection and methods of test 6.1 Inspection Visually inspect each sample roll for compliance with all the requirements given in clause 5, except the requirement relating to the continuity of the piec
38、e of woven rovings on a roll. Unwind the whole length of the sample roll and examine the woven rovings for compliance with 4.5 and with the requirement in 5.1 relating to the continuity of the piece of woven rovings on a roll. 6.2 Test specimens and conditioning Take from the sample roll the test sp
39、ecimens appropriate to all the tests. Ensure that the specimens are taken from positions at least 5 m from an end of the piece of woven rovings, and at least 50 mm from an edge. Unless otherwise specified in the particular method, condition all test specimens for a SANS 1538:2008 Edition 1.2 8 perio
40、d of at least 16 h at a temperature of 23 C 2 C and a relative humidity of (50 5) %, and conduct the tests under these conditions. 6.3 Determination of mass per unit area Use SANS 79, on a test specimen of size at least 300 mm 300 mm.

44、the woven rovings, with the aid of the dissection needle if necessary, suitable lengths of weft and warp rovings. 6.5.3.2 Using the minimum tension necessary to ensure that the rovings are straight during the cutting operation, measure and cut off the required lengths of the test specimens. In the c
45、ase of woven rovings of width less than 1 m, make all three weft specimens of equal length and such that their combined length equals 1 m. 6.5.3.3 Determine the mass of each test specimen to the nearest 1 mg. Where three short weft specimens have been cut, determine their combined mass to the neares
