1、Designation: D4029/D4029M 10Standard Specification forFinished Woven Glass Fabrics1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4029/D4029M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A numbe
2、r in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers finished fabrics woven from“E” electrical glass fiber yarns that are intended as a reinforc-ing material in lamina
3、ted plastics for structural use. Thisspecification can also be applied to fabrics made of other glasstypes as agreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier.1.2 This specification specifies the terminology, definitions,general requirements, and physical requirements for finishedwoven glass fabri
4、cs This specification permits the applicationof sizing materials to the glass fiber yarn during manufacturethat helps facilitate weaving. These organic materials aretypically removed from the greige fabric and replaced with afinish that is compatible with the resin matrix specified in thecontracting
5、 documentNOTE 1Sizing materials on glass fiber yarns, in most cases, areremoved by various cleaning procedures as a first stage in preparing afinished fabric. When these yarn sizing materials are removed during acleaning procedure they need not be compatible with the subsequent resinmatrix.1.3 The v
6、alues stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the stand
7、ard.1.4 This specification is one of a series to provide asubstitute for Military Specifications: MIL-Y-1140 Yarn, Cord,Sleeving, Cloth, and Tape-Glass; and MIL-C-9084 Cloth,Glass Finished for Resin Laminates.1.5 Additional ASTM specifications in this series have beendrafted and appear in current ed
8、itions of the Annual Book ofASTM Standards. These include greige glass fabrics, glasstapes, glass sleevings, glass cords, glass sewing threads, andfinished laminates made from finished glass fabrics.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its
9、use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
