16、heseal materials are available through a Central Parts Distributor (CPD).65. Significance and Use5.1 There are several major causes of automotive lubricant-related seal failures. This test method addresses only those failurescaused by excessive elastomer hardening, elongation loss, and volume swell
17、and attempts to determine the likelihood that an oilmight cause premature sealing system failures in field use. This test method may be used as a requirement of a performancespecification, such as Specification D5760 and J2360.5.2 Another major cause of seal failure is the formation of carbon, varni
18、sh, and sludge-like deposits on the seal lip. Thedeposit-forming characteristics of automotive gear oils are evaluated in Test Method D5704. That procedure is intended in part toevaluate the potential for oils to cause premature seal failure in field service.6. Apparatus6.1 Specific test equipment a

Reagents and Materials7.1 Specific reference test oils are maintained and distributed by the TMC.5To receive the test oils and seal materials, individuallaboratories shall commit to furnishing the TMC with reference data developed using these reference materials.7.
25、2 The CPD is responsible for maintaining the numbering and tracking system for the seal elastomer batches used. Certainspecific information concerning these reference materials is available only to the CPD. This information is used to ensurebatch-to-batch consistency.7.2.1 Information and location o
26、f the current CPD is also available from the TMC.7.3 Specific reference seal elastomers used are a nitrile (NI), a polyacrylate (PA), and a fluoroelastomer (FL). Notation of thenumbering system is established by the TMC as follows:Type Ywhere:Type = NI, PA, FL, andY = Batch number of the particular
27、formulation.7.4 The shelf life for the seal elastomers is two years from the date the batch was cured. Invalidate any test with a seal curedate older than two years. Consult the TMC for any approved exceptions to this lifespan. Place a note in the comments sectionof the test report where exceptions
28、have been approved.7.4.1 Store elastomers in a refrigerator maintained at (3 to 6) C.7.5 The shelf life of reference oils is typically five years unless the TMC, through their analysis, specifies otherwise.7.6 Wetting solution of Aerosol OT0.1 % sodium diocytl sulfosuccinate, made by a 1.0 % dilutio
29、n of a 10 % solution withreagent water.5Reference oils are available from the ASTM Test Monitoring Center, 6555 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, PA 15206-4489.6The Central Parts Distributor for this procedure is Test Engineering Inc., 12758 Cimarron Path, Suite 102, San Antonio, TX 78249.D5662 1228. Procedure
30、8.1 The testing laboratory shall conduct reference oil tests concurrently with the non-reference oil in the same oil bath.Reference oils shall perform within a specific range prescribed and evaluated by TMC for validity and updated as needed.8.2 Prior to cutting specimens and prior to performing elo
31、ngation tests for initial properties, allow 3 h for the elastomer to warmto (23 6 2) C, as required by Test Method D412. Referring to the procedure in Test Method D412, use Die C to cut a set of twelvedumbbell specimens out of the elastomer sheets as required for each reference and non-reference oil
32、 tested.8.2.1 Cut the dumbbells parallel to the grain using the same unaltered dies for the entire lot. When cutting dumbbells, only cutone thickness at a time to avoid any dimensional variations.8.2.2 Cut all elastomer specimens, including those used for measuring initial properties, from the same
33、elastomer batch. Usethese dumbbells for measuring the percent elongation changes.8.2.3 Next, cut twelve (25 by 50) mm by (2.0 6 0.1) mm rectangular specimens for the percent volume change and hardnesstesting.8.2.4 Finally, cut twelve more NI, PA, and FL dumbbells for the purpose of determining initi
34、al elongation properties.8.2.5 Randomly select sets of twelve dumbbells and twelve rectangular specimens for testing from the different sheets of testelastomers.8.2.6 Use the water displacement procedure in accordance with Test Method D471 to determine the initial volumemeasurements. Weigh the coupo
35、n in air, M1, to the nearest 1 mg. For the weight in water, immerse the coupon in a 1.0 % wettingsolution of aerosol OT, then place the coupon in distilled water, M2, at ambient temperature. Make sure no air bubbles are clingingto the coupon surface before recording the weight to the nearest 1 mg.8.
36、2.7 Ensure that initial elastomer properties of hardness and volume are determined prior to the start of testing. Initialelongation properties are determined just prior to running the end of test dumbbells because of instrument calibration.8.3 Fill the test tubes with (150 6 5) mL of non-reference o
37、r reference oil as appropriate.8.4 Use four test tubes for each elastomer/oil combination. In each tube, suspend from a stainless steel wire hanger bent at a90 angle (dimensions shown in Fig. 1) three rectangular specimens and three dumbbells in each of the four tubes. Place spacersin between the sp
38、ecimens to aid in the separation. The width of the spacer(s) shall be (1.7 6 0.3) mm. The spacer material shallnot affect the liquid or the rubber.8.4.1 Fig. 2 shows the arrangement of spacers and test specimens.8.4.2 Top the test tube with a stopper wrapped in aluminum foil.8.4.3 Test the non-refer
39、ence oil using one or more of the three different seal elastomers with the same batch of elastomers asbeing used for the reference oil.8.4.4 Place the tubes randomly in an oil bath capable of maintaining a test oil temperature within 6 1 C for a period of (2406 0.5) h (see Table 1).8.4.4.1 Measure t

Allow the specimens to cool for no longer than 30 min.8.5.1 Remove the specimens from the wire hanger, and place them on a clean absorbent towel. Remove the excess oil with aclean ab
