14、 Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States14. Summary of Test Method4.1 Non-reference oils are tested using a modified version of Test Method D471 on specific elastomer compounds. Measuredquantities are percent ultimate elongation changes (further referred to as just percent elongation changes), du
15、rometer Type Ahardness changes, and percent volume changes. Reference oils are run concurrently in the same oil bath to measure consistencyfrom one test to another.4.2 The duration of these tests is 240 h. The reference oils are available from the ASTM Test Monitoring Center (TMC).5 Theseal material
16、s 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 and attempts to
17、 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, varnish, and sludge-
18、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 as outlined in T

31、ng specimens and prior to performing elongation 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
32、for each reference and non-reference oil 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 meas
