5、ble for testing“ when writing O-ring material specifications. 1. SCOPE 1.1 Purpose There are many tests that have been developed to characterize rubber O-rings. Many of these tests are independent of the size of the O-ring being tested. However, there are some tests, specifically, stress/strain prop

6、erties, that are a function of the O-rings size. The purpose of this report is to provide guidelines for specifying O-rings that would be considered “suitable for testing” when writing O-ring material specifications. 1.2 Background The vast majority of O-ring specifications written to date do not sp

7、ecify a specific O-ring size as the appropriate test specimen. Typically, phrases like “the finished part,” “if of suitable size,” or “ the end item” are used when conformance testing is referred to. Currently, this situation is handled by the O-ring manufacturer on a case-by-case basis through disc

8、ussions with the customer. The reason why this is problematic is that physical properties can change as the O-ring size being tested changes. It should be noted that some polymer families are more sensitive to this phenomenon than others. 2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS The following publications form a par

12、 and Rubber Latices - Nomenclature 3. DISCUSSION As the size of the O-ring being tested changes, there are a number of factors that can affect the results obtained and, therefore, must be considered prior to writing a statistically stable specification. Some of these factors include: 3.1 Overall Dim

13、ensions of the O-ring O-rings are available in a huge variety of sizes, both large and small. As a result, there are practical limitations in what sizes would be deemed suitable for testing. Very small inside diameters do not fit on standard test spools and are, therefore, deemed unsuitable for test

14、ing. Similarly, very large inside diameter O-rings cannot be tested on conventional tensile testing equipment due to crosshead travel limitations and, therefore, are considered unsuitable for testing. Finally, very large cross-section O-rings may not fit on standard size spools and would, therefore,

15、 pose unique testing challenges. 3.2 Test Apparatus Limitations Stress/strain testing machines are typically available in two varieties: table model or floor model. The limiting factor of both models, as it relates to O-ring tensile testing, is that of crosshead “travel.” This common term is defined

16、 as the total distance that the crosshead can travel within the constraints of the test frame itself. This simple fact can determine very quickly whether or not a very high elongation material can even be tested on a specific tensile testing machine. In the O-ring testing community there are typical

17、ly three standard spool diameters used for testing (1/8th, 1/4th, and 1/2 in nominally). In addition, most test labs have grips that are used for testing segments of very large diameter O-rings. This testing is typically called single strand segment testing. Any O-ring size that does not fit conveni

18、ently on one of these spools or grips would be considered unsuitable for testing. It should be noted that the crosshead travel rate has a very large influence on the data generated for a given O-ring compound and size. Simply stated, different strain rates yield different results. For this reason, A

19、STM and ISO have specified a standard strain rate of 20 in/min. In special instances, other strain rates may be used, but these variations must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. 3.3 Material Mixing Inhomogenities Rubber mixing is a physical mastication process. As a result, there are areas in an

20、y batch of rubber that exhibits material ingredient inhomogenities. These regions may contain filler aggregates or polymer rich areas that may affect the stress/strain properties as tested. The larger the inside diameter of the O-ring being tested, the higher the statistical probability that one of

21、these regions will cause a non-uniform stress concentration and cause a premature break. When it comes to specification writing there is basically two choices; limit the suitable test sizes or allow for the larger variations with testing larger inside diameter O-rings. These aggregate formations are

22、 indicative of batch-to-batch variations typical in rubber mixing. The statistical probability of these stress “risers” increases proportionally with the volume of rubber being tested. 3.4 Differing Material Formulations Different elastomeric formulations exhibit differing stress/strain responses. D

23、epending on the degree of difference, the sizes that would be deemed suitable will change accordingly. In other instances, very large cross-section O-rings made out of specialty materials may exhibit mechanical properties that would be out of the range of the load cells for the tensile testing equip

24、ment. Finally, materials that have very high elongation characteristics may be deemed unsuitable for testing due to the fact that there is not enough crosshead travel length to accommodate their high elongation characteristics. This situation becomes even more troublesome when testing is performed o

25、n single strand O-ring specimens exhibiting large elongation. SAE ARP3050 - 3 - 4. GUIDELINES 4.1 Guidelines for Suitable Test Sizes Below are a series of tables that offer recommendations for suitable test sizes for O-rings for a variety of instances. Keep in mind that these are recommendations for

26、 use when generating material testing requirements for industry specifications. Special fixturing is available to test O-rings that are outside the recommendations in the following tables. However, these situations would be considered outside the scope of an industry guideline for specification writ

27、ing and are, therefore, not considered in this document. The tables that follow are based on the following general guidelines. Most O-ring materials will fall into on of the following categories. For materials that do not, empirical testing would be required in order to establish suitable test sizes
