2、3.1.3). NOTE 1 Some surface imperfections, e.g. offset and shortage of material, can appear in combination. 3.1.1 Imperfections not involving excess or shortage of material 3.1.1.1 Bloom: A liquid or solid material which has migrated to the surface of a rubber. 3.1.1.2 Surface inclusion (foreign mat
3、erial): Any extraneous matter embedded in the surface. 3.1.1.3 Cut: A fine incision similar to that made by a scalpel. The cut is not open. It is usually necessary to stretch the rubber for the edges of the cut to be- come clearly visible. 3.1.1.4 Cracking: A network of fine cracks or crazing which
4、is not visible unless the rubber is folded. It may be caused, for example, by ageing or incorrect storage. 3.1.2 Excess material 3.1.2.1 Flash (see figure 1): Excess material which escapes from the moulding cavity during moulding of a moulded ring, or is produced at the weld line of an extruded weld
5、ed ring, and solidifies to form a film-like appendage. It is caused by mould separ- ation and is present owing to inadequate trimming. 3.1.2.2 Offset: Joint ring halves that are off-register or mismatched. 3.1.2.2.1 Off-register (see figure 2): Misalignment of joint ring halves caused by lateral shi

9、like recess, sometimes triangular in shape, located along the parting line where the two ring ends have been welded together. It is caused by deformation of the mould edge at the parting line. 3.1.3.3 Excessive trimming (see figure5): A flat- tened and often roughened area around the inside and/or o

14、Figure 7 - Surface depression 3.1.4 Assessment Surface imperfections are usually observed with a x 2 magnifying lens, slightly stretching or bending the joint ring in order to reveal surface imperfections which would not be visible without so doing. Excessive stretching, which could damage the seal-
15、 ing ring, shall be avoided. A magnifying lens equipped with a length gauge should be sufficient. 3.2 Internal imperfections 3.2.1 Description 3.2.1.1 Foreign material (see also 3.1.1.2): Any ex- traneous matter embedded in the product. 3.2.1.2 Blisters/porosity: Air trapped in the product. 8 3.2.2
16、Assessment Internal imperfections may be determined by com- paring the compression stress-strain properties (see IS0 7743) or densities (see IS0 2781) of test pieces from a good finished product and test pieces taken from a finished product containing internal imper- fections. 4 Maximum acceptable l
17、imits for imperfections 4.1 Surface imperfections In most types of joint ring, a distinction can be made between the zones involved in the sealing function and other zones. IS0 9691:1992(E) 4.1.1 Surface imperfections in zones involved in the sealing function All imperfections (except bloom) in zone
18、s involved in the sealing function are likely to result in unsafe conditions in the working of the joint. Therefore the sealing zone shall be free of all surface imperfec- tions other than bloom. The mould design shall take account of this requirement for an imperfection-free sealing zone; in partic
19、ular, the mould shall not pro- duce a parting line. 4.1.2 Surface imperfections in zones not involved in the sealing function 4.1.2.1 Imperfections may be categorized into two classes as follows: a) Major imperfection: Any imperfection which would seriously impair the use or efficiency of the joint
20、ring, in particular an imperfection which would make it difficult to produce a satisfactory joint. These imperfections are situated along the mould parting line as hollows: - off-register; - flash. b) Minor imperfection: Any imperfection not having an appreciable effect on the use or efficiency of t
21、he joint ring. 4.1.2.2 Table 1 gives a classification of major and minor imperfections, according to the size of the imperfection, in zones not involved in the sealing function. NOTE 2 In order to facilitate the classification of an imperfection, observed imperfections can be compared to: - a refere
22、nce sample; - photographs showing the type of imperfection. 4.2 internal imperfections The joint ring shall not contain foreign material, blisters or porosity which reduces the compressive force. 9 IS0 9691:1992(E) Table 1 - Classification of surface imperfections in zones not involved in the seatin
