SCOPE The material defined by this specification is a high heat distortion type polyester resin, where medium viscosity, fast cure and retention of strength and electrical properties under high temperature conditions are required. 2. APPLICATION This specifica
3、tion was released originally for coating and impregnating alternator stators and rotors. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 QUALITY SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Material suppliers and part producers must conform to Quality System Requirements, QS-9000. Material specification requirements are to be used for initial qualific
4、ation of materials. A Control Plan for ongoing production verification is required. This plan must be reviewed and approved by the relevant Ford Materials activity and/or Ford Supplier Technical Assistance (STA) prior to production parts submission. Appropriate statistical tools must be used to anal
5、yze process/product data and assure consistent processing of the materials. Part producers using this material in their products, must use Ford approved materials and must conform to a process control plan which has been approved by STA and/or the relevant Materials Activity. 3.2 INFRARED SPECTROPHO
6、TOMETRY AND/OR THERMAL ANALYSIS Ford Motor Company, at its option, may conduct infrared and/or thermal analysis of material/parts supplied to this specification. The IR spectra and thermograms established for initial approval shall constitute the reference standard and shall be kept on file at the d
7、esignated material laboratory. All samples shall produce IR spectra and thermograms that correspond to the reference standard when tested under the same conditions. ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATION WSS-M7J40-B WP 3948-b Page 2 of 4 3.3 CONDITIONING AND TEST CONDITIONS All test values indicated her
8、ein are based on material conditioned in a controlled atmosphere of 23 +/- 2 C and 50 +/- 5 % relative humidity for not less than 24 h prior to testing and tested under the same conditions unless otherwise specified. 3.4 MIXING RATIO BY WEIGHT This material shall be mixed as follows: Polyester Resin

Test Method: Place 10 g of the catalyzed material in a 64 mm diameter aluminum evaporation dish and bake for 20 m
11、inutes at 150 +/- 1 C. Remove from oven, air cool to room temperature and inspect varnish for internal tackiness. 3.12 CHARACTERISTICS AFTER CURING The baked finish shall be hard, adherent and resistant to bending. The finish shall not lose its physical or insulating properties when subjected to the
12、 long continuous action of heat and electrical stress. The finish shall also be resistant to the action of alkalies, acids, oils and moisture that may be present in its application environment. 3.13 DIELECTRIC STRENGTH S/T, min, V/mil 3,000 (ASTM D 115, except dip once into catalyzed as received mat

Wind each turn of wire closely t
14、ogether under even tension to a coil into a coil length of 75 mm. Dip into the varnish as received. Withdraw at rate of 100 mm/minute. Dip and bake cycle is listed below. 5 minutes: Dip 5 minutes: Drain 60 minutes: Bake at 150 C 10 minutes: Cool Place the samples in a flexural testing type jig such
15、as is available at Rawsonville Quality Control Laboratory. Apply the load in the center of 51 mm span on the coils through a lever system attached to the heating chamber and testing jig. The load is lead shot poured into a pail attached to the lever. When the testing is performed at 149 C, the sampl
16、e is placed into the jig and allowed to stand for 15 minutes prior to load application to bring sample up to the temperature. 3.15 GEL TIME 100 - 150 At 100 C with no catalyst. minutes 3.16 SUPPLIERS RESPONSIBILITY All materials supplied to this specification must be equivalent in all characteristic
17、s to the material upon which approval was originally granted. Prior to making any change in the properties, composition, construction, color, processing or labeling of the material originally approved under this specification, whether or not such changes affect the materials ability to meet the spec
18、ification requirements, the Supplier shall notify Purchasing, Toxicology and the affected Materials Engineering activity of the proposed changes and obtain the written approval of the Materials Engineering activity. Test data, test samples and a new code identification are to be submitted with the r
19、equest. Substance restrictions imposed by law, regulations or Ford, apply to the materials addressed by this document. The regulations are defined in Engineering Materials Specification WSS-M99P9999-A1. ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATION WSS-M7J40-B WP 3948-b Page 4 of 4 4. APPROVAL OF MATERIALS Mat
20、erials defined by this specification must have prior approval by the responsible Materials Engineering activity. Suppliers desiring approval of their materials shall first obtain an expression of interest from the affected Purchasing, Design and Materials Engineering activity. Upon request, the Supp
21、lier shall submit to the affected Materials Engineering activity a completed copy of their laboratory test reports, signed by a qualified and authorized representative of the test facility, demonstrating full compliance with all the requirements of this specification (test results, not nominal value
22、s), the material designation and code number, and test specimens for Ford evaluation. Fords engineering approval of a material will be based on its performance to this specification and on an assessment of suitability for intended processes and/or applications. Upon approval, the material will be ad
23、ded to the Engineering Material Approved Source List. 5.
