Table 2 liststhose tests requiring a specimen molded as described in 9.1.7. Sampling7.1 Sampling shall be statistically adequate to satisfy therequi
22、rements of 10.4.8. Number of Tests8.1 One set of test specimens as prescribed in Section 9shall be considered sufficient for testing each sample. Theaverage result of the specimens tested shall conform to therequirements of this specification.9. Test Methods9.1 Test Specimens:9.1.1 Prepare a molded
23、sheet 1.50 6 0.25-mm 0.06060.010-in. thick. Use a picture-frame-type chase having asuitable blanked-out section and thickness to produce thedesired sheet. Use clean aluminum foil, 0.13 to 0.18 mm 0.005to 0.007 in. thick, in contact with the resin.Ahigh temperaturemold release agent may be sprayed on
24、 the aluminum foil tohelp prevent the foil from sticking to the sheet. Use steelmolding plates at least 1.0 mm 0.040 in. thick and of an areaadequate to cover the chase.9.1.2 Lay down and smoothly cover one plate with a sheetof aluminum foil. Place the mold chase on top of this assembly.Place within
25、 the mold chase sufficient molding material toproduce the required sheet in such manner that the polymercharge is a mound in the middle of the chase. Place a secondsheet of aluminum foil on top of the granules and add the topmold plate. Place the assembly in a compression molding presshaving platens
26、 that have been heated to 380 6 5C 716 610F.9.1.3 Bring the press platens to incipient contact with themold assembly. Hold for 2 to 4 min without pressure. Applyapproximately 1 MPa 145 psi and hold for 1 to 1.5 min. Thenapply 2 to 4 MPa 290 to 580 psi and hold for 1 to 1.5 min.Maintain the press at
27、380 6 5C 716 6 10F during thesesteps. Remove the assembly from the press and place betweentwo 20 6 7-mm 0.75 6 0.25-in. steel plates whose tempera-ture is less than 40C 104F.9.1.4 When the sheet is cool enough to touch (about 50 to60C 122 to 140F), remove the aluminum foil from thesheet. (If the she
28、et is allowed to cool to room temperature, thealuminum foil cannot be pulled free.)9.2 Conditioning:9.2.1 For tests of specific gravity, tensile properties, andelectrical properties, condition the molded test specimens inaccordance with Procedure A of Practice D 618 for a period ofat least 4 h prior
29、 to test. The other tests require no conditioning.9.2.2 Conduct tests at the Standard Laboratory Temperatureof 23 6 2C 73.4 6 3.6F for determination of specificgravity, tensile properties, and electrical properties only.
