1、Designation: D6909 10 (Reapproved 2016)Standard Specification forHigh Temperature and Acid-Resistant FluorocarbonTerpolymer Elastomer1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6909; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of
2、revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers requirements for the fluorocar-bon terpolymer elastomer used in the ma
3、nufacture of expan-sion joints for use in coal-fired utilities and other hightemperature industrial applications in which corrosive fluegases are present.1.2 This specification is intended as a reference procedurefor evaluating the performance of these vulcanizates and canalso be used for quality as
4、surance testing before release of a lotbased on agreement between supplier and purchaser.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associate
5、d with its 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 requirements prior to use.2.

7、s3. Ordering Information3.1 The seller shall mention this specification number in allquotations and when acknowledging purchase order.4. Materials and Manufacture4.1 Material shall be based on 100 % virgin fluoroelastomerterpolymer of at least 68 % by weight of fluorine content. Thecompound shall co
8、ntain no less than 70 % by weight offluoroelastomer. The remaining 30 % by weight shall becomprised of Medium Thermal (MT) carbon black, Classifi-cation N 990 (in Classification D1765), as reinforcing filler. Nomineral fillers shall be used. The fluoroelastomer curative shallbe of the bisphenol (dih
9、ydroxy), or peroxide types. No amountof reprocessed fluoroelastomer scrap or nonfluoroelastomerpolymer is acceptable.4.2 As-received virgin fluroelastomer sampled in accor-dance with Section 6 shall be fully press-cured, typically for 20min at 150C (302F), but not post-cured. Other time/temperature
10、conditions are acceptable providing they producevulcanizates that meet the property requirements.5. Physical Properties5.1 The mean value of the individual samples shall meet thephysical and chemical property requirements shown in Table 1.5.2 A sample shall be exposed to 260 6 3C (500 6 5F)for 70 6

Sampling6.1 Sampling and testing
12、shall be as follows:6.1.1 For acceptance tests, sufficient product shall be takenat random from each lot to perform all required tests. Thenumber of samples tested per lot shall be no less than three.1This specification is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D11 on Rubberand is the direct respon
13、sibility of Subcommittee D11.37 on Coated Fabrics, RubberThreads and Seals.

United States16.1.2 ASTM International test specimens shall be preparedfrom the same batch of polymer/compound as the materialbeing supplied and shall be fully press-cured as specified in4.2.6.1.3 A lot is a
16、ll compound processed in one continuous runand presented to the purchaser at one time.6.1.4 Abatch is the quantity of compound run through a millor mixer at one time.6.1.5 The seller shall use ingredients and manufacturingprocesses on specification test samples that are essentially thesame as those
17、on the approved product.7. Number of Test and Retests7.1 Acceptance TestsThe seller of the expansion jointshall be responsible for checking the batch sample test results,confirming that the results are in accordance with thisspecification, and preparing the “Batch Test Certification”report. The buye
18、r reserves the right to perform confirmatorytests as deemed necessary to ensure that the product conformsto the “Batch Test Certification” and the full requirements ofthis specification.7.1.1 Acceptance tests shall cover the following properties:7.1.1.1 Hardness, as received (see Table 1);7.1.1.2 Te
