20、nsystem is in accordance with Terminologies D883 and D1600.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 polyphthalamide, PPA, na polyamide in which resi-dues of terephthalic acid or isophthalic acid or a combinationof the two comprise at least 55 molar percentage of thedicarboxylic acid
21、portion of the repeating structural units in thepolymer chain.4. Classification4.1 The polyphthalamide materials are designated “PPA,” asspecified in Terminology D1600.4.2 Unreinforced polyphthalamide materials are classifiedinto groups according to crystallinity. These groups are subdi-vided into c
22、lasses and grades as shown in Table PPA.NOTE 2An example of this classification system is as follows:The designation PPA0121 would indicate from Table PPA:PPA = Polyphthalamide as found in Terminology D160001 (Group) = Semicrystalline PPA2 (Class) = Low-temperature molding material1 (Grade) = With t
23、he corresponding requirements shown in Table PPA4.2.1 To facilitate the incorporation of future or specialmaterials, the “other/unspecified” category (00) for group, (0)for class, and (0) for grade is shown.The basic properties of thematerial can be obtained from Table A as they apply.4.3 Reinforced
24、 and lubricated versions of the polyphthal-amide materials are classified in accordance with Tables PPAandA, whereTable PPAspecifies the unreinforced material andTable A the properties after the addition of reinforcements orlubricants at the nominal level indicated (see 4.3.1).NOTE 3This part of the
25、 classification system uses the percent ofreinforcements or additives, or both, in the callout of the modified basicmaterial. The types and percentages of reinforcements and additives issometimes shown on the suppliers technical data sheet. If necessaryadditional callout of these reinforcements and
26、additives can be accom-plished by use of the suffix of the system (see Section 5).NOTE 4Materials containing reinforcements or fillers, or both, atnominal levels not in multiples of five are included in the nearest gradedesignation. For example, a material with a nominal glass fiber level of33 % is
