Test Specimens8.1 Prepare five test specimens from the bulk sample byusing the applicator or oven method.8.1.1 Applicator Method:8.1.1.1 Clean the glass and aluminum surfaces according tothe procedure
16、s set forth in Guide C 1375.FIG. 1 Assembly of Test Sealant on SubstratesNOTE 1The template shall be made of a material of low thermalconductivity, such as wood or fiberglass.FIG. 2 TemplateC13670628.1.1.2 Using the appropriate die or nozzle, apply a 25.4 by25.4-mm (1 by 1-in.) layer of sealant onto
17、 one end of the glasssurface at a thickness that when compressed will comply with8.1.1.4. All substrates shall be at a temperature of 23 6 2C(73.4 6 3.6F). Apply the sealant at the temperature specifiedby the sealant manufacturer.8.1.1.3 Immediately after sealant application, place thealuminum subst
18、rate onto the sealant to form an overlap of 6.45cm2(1 in.2)(Fig. 1).8.1.1.4 Using a template (Fig. 2), compress the overlayedsealant to form a 3.18-mm (18-in.) thick overlap (Fig. 3).8.1.1.5 Remove excess sealant from the specimen with a hotknife or spatula.8.1.2 Oven Method:8.1.2.1 Clean the glass
19、surface according to the proceduresset forth in Guide C 1375.8.1.2.2 Place sufficient sealant onto the substrate so thatwhen compressed, a 6.45-cm2(1-in.2) overlap that will complywith 8.1.2.5 is obtained.8.1.2.3 Clean the aluminum substrate according to theprocedures set forth in Guide C 1375.8.1.2
20、4 Separately place both the glass with sealant and theoverlapping aluminum into an oven and condition for 30 minat the specified application temperature.8.1.2.5 Immediately upon removing the substrates from theoven, place the aluminum substrate onto the sealant over theglass substrate (Fig. 1). Usi
21、ng the template (Fig. 2), compressthe overlayed sealant to form a 3.18-mm (18-in.) thick overlap(Fig. 3).8.1.2.6 Remove excess sealant from the specimen with a hotknife or spatula.8.2 When the specimens are ready to handle, either becausethey have cooled or have been allowed to cure at specifiedcond
22、itions, cover the end of the glass substrate with severallayers of masking tape. Press the tape firmly onto the glass. Cutsmall rectangular areas out of the tape so that the glasssubstrate can be seen.8.3 When the specimens are ready for testing, prepare thealuminum end to hold a 500-g (1.10-lb) wei
23、ght for the durationof the test. This can be done by drilling or punching a hole atthe end of the aluminum substrate (centering the hole). Thishole is used for suspending the 500-g test weight.Alternatively,the end can be punched to create a raised surface or otherwisemodified to allow suspension of
24、 the weight.9. Conditioning9.1 Condition all test specimens at 23 6 2C (73.4 6 3.6F)and 50 6 10 % relative humidity for at least 24 h prior totesting.9.2 Additional conditioning may be done as specified bymutual agreement between the purchaser and sealant manufac-turer.10. Procedure10.1 Suspend the
25、glass end of the specimen in the oven setat the specified test temperature 62.8C ( 65F). Clips can beattached to the glass (over the cut out rectangle) and suspendedfrom the top of the oven. Clamps may also be used or anydevice that allows the specimens to hang vertically during thetest.10.2 Attach
26、a 500-g (1.10-lb) weight to the aluminum end ofthe specimen. Some weights have hooks permanently attached.Alternatively, any device that allows the weight to hangvertically during the test may be used.10.3 Close the oven door and maintain the specified testtemperature for the duration of the test.10
27、4 Record the time in minutes to shear failure of thespecimens.10.5 Examine the shears and record the type of failure,adhesive or cohesive, and percentage of each.NOTE 1The oven must be at the specified test temperature beforesuspending specimens. The specimens should be suspended as quickly asFIG.
