Significance and Use4.1 This specification provides testing procedures and speci-fies requirements to differentiate the physical, adhesive, anddurability properties of commercially available casein andcasein-protein adhesives. The two classes are
13、 defined by waterresistance. Selection of class is left to the choice of the productmanufacturer and the consumer, based on measures used byeach to protect the bond line from moisture degradation.NOTE 3Because of strict EPA requirements as to disposal of waste1This specification is under the jurisdi

Paint,varnish, and restrictive e
17、xposure conditions are protective measurescommonly employed to protect the bond line against degradation due tomold and moisture.4.2 The stress calculated by this specification should not beused to predict failure, nor should it be used directly for designstress in joints with different geometry or
18、with loading direc-tion different from the test geometry.5. Classification5.1 For purposes of this specification, adhesives are classi-fied on the basis of water resistance at two performance levels:5.1.1 Class B, Water ResistantAn adhesive passing ClassB test requirements, as listed in Table 1, is
19、capable ofproducing sufficient adhesive-joint strength and durability andhas sufficient water resistance to make the bonded productsserviceable under conditions in which there will be occasionalintermittent exposure to wet conditions or high humidity.5.1.2 Class C, Dry UseAn adhesive passing Class C
20、 testrequirements, as listed in Table 1, has sufficient adhesive-jointstrength and durability under normal interior service conditionswhere the relative humidity is not high and does not fluctuatebetween wide limits.6. Test Requirements6.1 The test adhesives, when tested in accordance withSection 11
21、, shall remain in the viscosity range of 3000 to15 000 cP for a working life of at least 5 h, minimum.NOTE 4The viscosity requirement covers a 5-h span, although the“end-of-working-life” adhesive bond strength test is run at 4 h. Thisapparent conflict is necessary in order to assure that the mixed c
22、aseinadhesive is not in a rapidly rising viscosity pattern at the end of theworking life.6.1.1 The working life shall be timed from the addition ofthe adhesive powder to the water.6.1.2 The viscosity requirements shall not apply until thecasein has dissolved and the adhesive is ready for use.NOTE 5U
23、nless the manufacturer instructs otherwise, 20 min is thetypical time period required, after the adhesive powder is added to thewater, before the adhesive is ready for use.6.2 To meet the adhesive bond requirements of the specifi-cation, the test adhesive shall be subjected to the tests de-scribed i
24、n Section 12 and shall meet the requirements listed onTable 1.6.2.1 Two sets of adhesive bond tests are required, one to beinitiated 1 h after mixing the adhesive with water, and one 4 hafter mixing.6.3 To meet the storage-life requirements, an initial lot ofthe adhesive shall be tested following th
25、e manufacturerscertified storage life, and shall pass all test requirements for theapplicable adhesive classification. Following this initial test,certification for this requirement shall be based on submissionfrom the manufacturer.7. Retest and Rejection7.1 When a specimen fails at a load less than
26、 that specifiedand the wood failure is at least 50 %, that specimen shall bedisregarded in computing the average. If more than one third ofthe test specimens for any one test condition are discarded forthis reason, the test shall be repeated.7.2 If the results of any initial test do not conform to t
27、herequirements prescribed in this specification, that test shall berepeated on an additional set of specimens made from the samelot of adhesive, each of which shall conform to the require-ments specified. If this set of specimens fails to meet therequirements, the lot shall be rejected.TEST METHODS8
28、. Significance and Use8.1 This specification provides testing procedures to differ-entiate the physical, adhesive, and durability properties ofcommercially available casein and casein-protein adhesives.9. Apparatus9.1 Mechanical Stirrer or Mixer, capable of speed in air of5000 r/min for the preparat
29、ion of the adhesive mix.49.2 Other apparatus required to conduct tests are covered inPractice D 899, and Test Methods D 905, D 906, D 1084 andD 2556.10. Sampling10.1 Take a 5-lb (2.3-kg) representative sample of theadhesive from the lot to be tested. Store samples in airtight4Satisfactory mixing may
30、 be obtained using the intermediate speed of theThomas Three-Speed Stirrer No. 8585-M10 used with the stirring shaft, AHT No.8633-T10, 9 in. (23 cm) long, and 1.5-in. (38-mm) diameter, four-blade propeller.Available from Thomas Scientific, Swedesboro, NJ 08085-0099, and other loca-tions. Many other

For the initial testing of storage life only(6.4), divide the s
34、ample into two equal portions, packed asdirected above. Use one portion for immediate testing andreserve the other for testing at the end of storage life.11. Working Life11.1 Prepare the adhesive for use in accordance with themanufacturers instructions. Measure the time from the intro-duction of the
35、 powder into the water, and determine viscosityin a 400-mL beaker at 20 min and at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 h, inaccordance with Test Methods D 1084, Method B, with thefollowing modifications:11.1.1 Keep the adhesive at 77 6 1F (25 6 0.5C) for theduration of the test for working life.11.1.2 Stir the adhesi
36、ve with a mechanical stirrer for 1 minimmediately before measuring the viscosity.11.1.3 Allow the viscometer spindle to rotate for 30 s beforerecording the dial reading.11.1.4 Using standard procedure for mixing a casein adhe-sive for testing, introduce the powder into the water withmechanical agita
37、tion, and continue the agitation for 1 min afterthe powder is dispersed. Turn off the mixer for approximately15 to 20 min, depending on the manufacturers instructions.Before the viscosity reading is taken, turn the mixer on againfor 1 min. Then take the reading promptly.11.1.5 Other temperatures may
38、 be used upon agreementbetween the contracting parties, but the 61F (60.5C)tolerance must be observed.NOTE 6Casein adhesives develop an exothermic reaction when addedto water, so the water temperature must be 5 to 10F (2.8 to 5.5C) lowerthan the desired temperature of the liquid adhesive.NOTE 7Altho
39、ugh casein adhesives and especially casein-soy blendadhesives have somewhat shear-rate-dependent flow properties, TestMethods D 1084, Method B, is referenced for viscosity determinationsrather than Test Method D 2556. The 1-min mixing time prior to readinga viscosity serves to break down the apparen
40、t viscosity build-up as theglue mix rests between readings. When more information is needed on theshear-rate-dependent flow properties of the adhesive, test the mix by TestMethod D 2556.12. Tests for Adhesive Bond12.1 Block Shear Strength (Compression):12.1.1 Prepare the specimens in accordance with
41、 TestMethod D 905, using the adhesive manufacturers instructions.12.1.1.1 In the absence of specific instructions, use a spreadrate of 60 lb/1000 ft2(0.19 g/in.2) of bond line (see PracticeD 899). The mixed metric/English system has been deliber-ately used, since it is a standard in the industry for
42、 spread rate.Use 1 to 2-min open assembly (time required to applyadhesive), 15-min closed assembly, 200 psi (1379 kPa) pres-sure, 2-h press time, and a 1-week conditioning period.12.1.2 Number of SpecimensTest 20 specimens represent-ing at least four assemblies.12.1.3 Dry TestFollowing the prescribe
43、d conditioningperiod for the adhesive being tested, bring one test group of 20specimens to 10 to 12 % moisture content and test in accor-dance with the instructions in Test Method D 905. Apply theload through a self-aligning seal to ensure uniform lateraldistribution of the load. Apply the load with
44、 a continuousmotion of the movable loading head at a rate of 0.5 in. (12.7mm)/min (610 %).NOTE 8To obtain the desired moisture content refer to Table 34 onpage 37 of the Wood Handbook.5Additional information is available inPractice E 104.

46、rdance with TestMethod D 906, using the adhesive manufacturers instructions.12.2.1.1 In the absence of specific instructions, use a spreadrate of 60 lb/1000 ft2(0.19 g/in.2) of bond line. The mixedmetric-English system has been deliberately used since it is astandard in the industry for spread rate

Separate the specimens randomlyinto
48、2 groups of 15 specimens each. Use one group for the drytest (12.2.3.1) and one group for the soak test (12.2.3.2).12.2.2.2 Class C TestsPrepare 20 specimens, 10 fromeach of two assemblies.12.2.3 Exposure Conditions and Treatments:12.2.3.1 Dry Test at 75F (24C)Following the prescribedaging period an
