The
13、 work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-gove
14、rnmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. T
15、he main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vot

17、 SC 2, Testing and analysis. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 7619-2:2004), which has been technically revised to update the references to ISO 18898 for instrument calibration and ISO 23529 for the preparation of test pieces.

19、pocket meter or a Shore durometer, is determined from the complex response of the rubber to an applied indentation. An IRHD pocket meter is a portable hand-held durometer calibrated to measure on the IRHD scale. The measurement will depend upon: a) the elastic modulus of the rubber; b) the viscoelas
20、tic properties of the rubber; c) the thickness of the test piece; d) the geometry of the indentor; e) the pressure exerted; f) the rate of increase of pressure; g) the interval after which the hardness is recorded. Because of these factors, it is inadvisable to relate results obtained using an IRHD
21、pocket meter directly to Shore durometer hardness values, although correlations have been established for some individual rubbers and compounds. NOTE Further information on the relationship between the durometer values and IRHD values is given in the literature345. BS ISO 7619-2:2010BS ISO 7619-2:20

This part of ISO 7619 d
23、oes not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions. CAUTION Certain procedures specified in this part of ISO
24、 7619 may involve the use or generation of substances, or the generation of waste, that could constitute a local environmental hazard. Reference should be made to appropriate documentation on safe handling and disposal after use. 1 Scope This part of ISO 7619 specifies a method for determining the i
25、ndentation hardness of vulcanized or thermoplastic rubber by means of a pocket hardness meter calibrated in IRHD. The use of such meters is primarily intended for control, not specification, purposes (for specification, see ISO 48). It is possible to increase precision by fixing the pocket hardness
26、meter on a support. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 48,

29、ith sides 20 mm 2,5 mm long or circular with a diameter of 22,5 mm 2,5 mm. It shall have a central hole of diameter 2,5 mm 0,5 mm (see Figure 1). Dimensions in millimetres Key 1 hemispherical (diameter 1,575 mm 0,025 mm) aValid at 30 IRHD. Figure 1 Indentor for IRHD pocket meter 4.1.2 Indentor The i
30、ndentor end shall be hemispherical, with a diameter of 1,575 mm 0,025 mm (see Figure 1). 4.1.3 Indicating device This device allows the extent of protrusion of the indentor beyond the face of the pressure foot to be read. It shall be calibrated directly in terms of IRHD from the value 30 for the max
31、imum protrusion of 1,65 mm to the value 100 for zero protrusion obtained by placing the pressure foot and indentor in firm contact with a flat and hard surface (e.g. glass). 4.1.4 Calibrated spring This shall be used to apply a substantially constant force to the indentor of 2,65 N 0,15 N over the 3
32、0 IRHD to 100 IRHD range. 5 Test pieces 5.1 General Test pieces shall be prepared in accordance with ISO 23529. BS ISO 7619-2:2010ISO 7619-2:2010(E) ISO 2010 All rights reserved 35.2 Thickness For the determination of hardness by pocket hardness meters, the thickness of the test piece shall be at le
33、ast 6 mm. For sheets thinner than 6 mm, the test piece may be composed of not more than three layers, none of which shall be thinner than 2 mm, in order to obtain the necessary thickness. However, determinations made on such test pieces might not agree with those made on single-thickness pieces. For
34、 comparative-test purposes, the test pieces shall be similar. 5.3 Surface The other dimensions of the test piece shall be sufficient to permit measurements at least 12 mm away from any edge. The surface of the test piece shall be flat over the area in contact with the pressure foot. Satisfactory har
35、dness determinations cannot be made on rounded, uneven or rough surfaces using pocket meters. However, their use in certain specialized applications is recognized, e.g. ISO 7267-12for the determination of the hardness of rubber-covered rolls. In such applications, the limitations to their use shall
36、be clearly identified. 6 Conditioning and test temperature Where practical, test pieces shall be conditioned immediately before testing for a minimum period of 1 h at one of the standard laboratory temperatures specified in ISO 23529. The same temperature shall be used throughout any single test or
37、series of tests intended to be comparable. 7 Procedure 7.1 General Place the test piece on a flat, hard, rigid surface (e.g. glass). Hold the hardness meter in position with the centre of the indentor at least 12 mm from the edges of the test piece. Apply the pressure foot to the test piece as rapid
38、ly as possible, without shock, keeping the foot parallel to the surface of the test piece and ensuring that the indentor is normal to the rubber surface. 7.2 Test time Apply a force sufficient only to obtain firm contact between the pressure foot and the test piece and take the reading at the specif
39、ied time after the pressure foot is in firm contact with the test piece. The standard test time is 3 s for vulcanized rubber and 15 s for thermoplastic rubber. Other test times may be used, provided they are stated in the test report. Rubbers of unknown types shall be treated as vulcanized. NOTE A t
40、est time of 15 s has been introduced for thermoplastic rubber, as the hardness value continues to decrease over a longer period of time than for vulcanized rubber, this test time being the same as that specified for plastics in ISO 8681. 7.3 Number of measurements Make five measurements of hardness
41、at different positions on the test piece at least 6 mm apart and determine the median value. If the time interval after which each reading was taken is different from 3 s, record the individual values of the indentation hardness together with the time interval after which each reading was taken, and
42、 determine the median value and the maximum and minimum values obtained.

43、ks1)Press the instrument against a suitable flat, hard surface (e.g. glass) and adjust the reading on the scale to give a value of 100 IRHD. Continue the instrument check using a set of standard rubber blocks covering the measurement range from about 30 IRHD to 90 IRHD. All adjustments shall be made
44、 in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. The set of standard rubber blocks shall consist of at least six test pieces kept lightly dusted with talc in a suitable covered container away from light, heat, oil and grease. The standard rubbers shall themselves be calibrated against the dead-lo
45、ad gauge by the method specified in ISO 48 at intervals not exceeding 1 year or when a drift in excess of 1 unit is observed. Instruments in regular use should be checked at least each week against standard rubber blocks. 9 Test report The test report shall include the following information: a) samp
46、le details: 1) a full description of the sample and its origin, 2) a description of the test piece, including its thickness and, in the case of a composite test piece, the number of layers; b) the test method used, i.e. the reference number of this part of ISO 7619; c) test details: 1) the temperatu
47、re of the test, and the relative humidity when the hardness of the material is dependent on the humidity, 2) the type of instrument used, 3) the time which elapsed between the preparation of the test piece and the measurement of its hardness, 4) details of any deviation from the standard procedure,
48、5) details of any operations not specified in this part of ISO 7619 and any incidents likely to have had an influence on the results; d) the test result, expressed as a whole number, e.g. 75 IRHD; e) the date of the test. 1) Standard rubber hardness blocks are available from a number of instrument m
