17、arriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.15. Test Specimen5.1 The test specimen, shown in Fig. 1(a), consists of onepiece of flexible material, 25 by 304.8 mm (1 by 12 in.),bonded for 152.4 mm (6 in.) at one end to one piece of flexibleor rigid material, 25 by 203.2 mm (1 by 8 in.), with theunbonded portion
18、s of each member being face to face.5.2 In order to maintain a separation rate of 152.4 mm (6in.)/min the specimen is to be relatively nonextensible in theexpected loading range. Where a material is sufficiently exten-sible to lessen radically the separation rate, back it up with asuitable nonextens
19、ible material. In reporting such a test,completely identify the backing material and method.5.3 Test materials are to be thick enough to withstand theexpected tensile pull but not over 3 mm (18 in.) in thickness.Wherever possible, the standard thickness of specimens is:metals, 1.6 mm (116 in.); plas
20、tics,116 in.; woods,18 in.; rubbercompounds, 1.9 mm (0.075 in.); and cotton duck, 627.4 gm/m2(30 oz/yd2). Other special materials, as well as the standardmaterials, are to be completely identified in the test report asspecified in Section 10.5.4 Test at least ten test specimens for each adhesive.5.5
21、 Discard any specimen whose test result is out of line dueto some obvious flaw and retest.6. Preparation of Test Specimen6.1 Precondition or prepare the surface of the area to bebonded in accordance with the recommendations of the manu-facturer of the adhesive.6.2 Bond the specimens in accordance wi
22、th the procedureand recommendations as outlined by the manufacturer of theadhesive.6.3 While individual specimens may be prepared, it isrecommended that specimens be cut from bonded panelsapproximately 152.4 mm (6 in.) in width as shown in Fig. 1(b),so that five standard 25-mm (1-in.) wide specimens
23、 areobtained from each panel.7. Conditioning7.1 Condition all specimens for 7 days by exposure to arelative humidity of 50 6 2 % at 23 6 1C (73.46 2F) oruntil equilibrium is reached, except where the adhesive manu-facturer may specify such an aging period to be unnecessary ora shorter period to be a
24、dequate.7.2 Special conditioning procedures may be used by agree-ment between the purchaser and the manufacturer.8. Procedure8.1 Conduct the test as soon as possible after removing thetest specimens from the conditioning atmosphere and prefer-ably under the same conditions.8.2 Separate the free end
25、of the 25-mm (1-in.) wide flexiblemember by hand from the other member for a distance of about1 in. Place the specimen in the testing machine by clamping thefree end of the 8-in. long member in one grip, turning back thefree end of the flexible member and clamping it in the othergrip as shown in Fig
26、. 2. Attach the separated end of thespecimen, with all separate parts except the one under testsecurely gripped, to the recording head by means of a clampusing care to adjust it symmetrically in order that the tension isdistributed uniformly. Maintain the specimen during the testapproximately in the
27、 plane of the clamps. This may be doneeither by attaching the minimum weight required to the freeend of the specimen or by holding the specimen against analignment plate (Fig. 2) attached to the stationary clamp.
