19、 55-1 2 1997 1 Scope This standard specifies the method to determine the reversible linear thermal expansion of plastics with exclusion of changes in length due to accidental factors such as changes in moisture content, degree of polymerization and stress release. Since it will not be possible to ex
20、clude all these accidental factors, the method can be expected to give only approximate values. 2 Definition For the purposes of this standard, the following definition applies : Linear thermal expansion is defined as the change in length of a material in relation to unit length for a variation in t
21、emperature of 1 OC. figure 1. An1 3 Apparatus 3.1 Dilatometer A simple fused-quartz tube dilatometer is shown i generally accepted method of measuring thermal expansion may be used which will be accurate to within k 10 YO. The accuracy of the device which measures the expansion shall be such that it
22、 measures the change in length over the temperature interval under consideration within k 2 %. This device shall not exert a stress of more than 50 kPa on this specimen which shall not be distorted or indented. 3.2 Scale or caliper The scale or caliper shall be capable of measuring the test length o
23、f the specimen with an accuracy of I 0,5 Yo. 3.3 Temperature bath The temperature of the specimen shall preferably be controlled by :e use of a liquid bath. The bath shall be arranged in such a way that uniform temperature throughout the specimen is secured. Means shall be provided for stirring the
24、bath and for controlling its temperature within k 0,2 OC of the temperatures used. 4 Specimens 4.1 Preparation Specimens shall be cut or shaped, from sheet. The ends of the specimen shall be cut perpendicular to the axis of the specimen. They shall be protected by means of thin steel plates cemented
25、 to them. 4.2 Dimensions For the apparatus shown in figure 1, specimens can be round or square and shall fit easily into the outer tube without excessive play. The length of the specimen may be 50 mm to 100 mm but its length is governed to some extent by the sensitivity of the dial gauge, the expect
26、ed expansion and the desired accuracy. STD-BSI BS EN 2155-12-ENGL 1997 D Lb24bb7 Ob57Li44 097 D Page 4 EN 2155-12 : 1997 5 Conditioning The specimen shall be conditioned at (23 k 2) OC, (50 f 5) % relative humidity for at least 48 h prior to measurement of the test length of the specimen under these
27、 conditions. 6 Procedure The temperature range over which the coefficient of thermal expansion is to be measured shall be chosen so that no transitional regions are included. The limits of the range shall be agreed between purchaser and manufacturer. 6.1 Low temperature Mount the specimen in the app
28、aratus and maintain the temperature of the bath at the lowest temperature at which measurements are required until the temperature of the specimen reaches the temperature of the bath. The time necessary shall be determined by preliminary measurements of temperature inside a similar specimen. Record
29、the reading of the dial gauge or other device indicating change in length. 6.2 High temperature Repeat the foregoing operations at the highest temperature at which measurements are required. 6.3 Check determination Repeat the operations described in 6.1 and 6.2. If the changes in length caused by he
30、ating and cooling do not agree within 10 % of their average, the cause of this discrepancy shall be investigated and if possible, eliminated (see 6.5). Otherwise the observations shall be reported, see 8.3. 6.4 Constant temperature bath Where the construction of the apparatus permits, it may be more
31、 convenient to alternately use two baths at the required temperatures. Care shall be taken not to disturb the apparatus during exchange. The use of two baths is preferred because it will reduce the time required to bring the specimen to the desired temperature. The test in general shall be conducted
32、 in as short a time as possible to avoid changes in physical properties during long exposure to high and low temperatures. 6.5 Transition temperature The coefficient of thermal expansion of some materials is known to change rather abruptly at a certain temperature. To find this temperature, it is ne
33、cessary to measure the coefficient of thermal expansion in narrow temperature limits, or to observe the rate of expansion during a steady rise in temperature of the specimen. Once such a transition point has been found, a separate coefficient of expansion for a temperature range below and above the
34、transition point shall be determined.

35、erage of changes in length due to heating or cooling ; L is the test length of specimens immediately after the conditioning stage (AL and L being in the same units) ; T is the temperature difference in OC over which the change in length has been measured. 8 Test report It shall include : 8.1 Tempera
