40、ecification.9. Specimen Preparation9.1 Test Disks for Tensile Properties:9.1.1 Use the die shown in Fig. 1 for the molding of test disks (see Note 2). Place flat aluminum disks, 0.1 to 0.4 mm (0.004in. to 0.016 in.) thick and 76 mm (3 in.) in diameter, on both sides of the resin. The test resin shal

41、l be near ambient temperatureprior to molding (see Note 3). (WarningPTFE resins can evolve small quantities of gaseous products when heated above 204C(400F). Some of these gases are harmful. Consequently, exhaust ventilation must be used whenever these resins are heated abovethis temperature, as the

42、y are during the sintering operations that are a part of this specification. Since the temperature of burningtobacco exceeds 204C (400F), those working with PTFE resins shall ensure that tobacco is not contaminated.)NOTE 3For maximum precision, these weighing and preforming operations shall be carri

43、ed out at 23 6 2C (73.4 6 3.6F) (the “near ambient”temperature referred to herein). These operations shall not be performed at temperatures below 21C (70F) due to the crystalline transition that occursin PTFE in this temperature region which leads to possible cracks in sintered specimens and differe

44、nces in specimen density (as well as changes in otherphysical properties). Problems caused by the effect of temperature on the specific gravity or density of PTFE shall be minimized when the measurementis made using immersion procedures if a sensitive thermometer (for example, one reading 6 0.1C) is

45、 used in the liquid and the temperature is adjustedto be at least 22C.9.1.2 Screen 14.5 g of PTFE resin through a No. 10 sieve into the die. Adjust the lower plug height to allow the resin in thedie can be leveled by drawing a straightedge in contact with the top of the die across the top of the die

46、 cavity. Insert the die ina suitable hydraulic press and apply pressure gradually (see Note 4) until a pressure of 14 MPa (2030 psi) is attained. Hold thispressure for 3 min. Remove the disk from the die. Write the sample identification number on the preform using an appropriatemarker that will not

47、affect the PTFE during sintering.NOTE 4As a guide, increasing the pressure at a rate of 3.5 MPa (500 psi)/min is suggested until the desired maximum pressure is attained.9.1.3 Place the sintering oven in a laboratory hood (or equip it with an adequate exhaust system) and sinter the preforms inaccord

48、ance with Table 3, Procedure A (see Note 5).NOTE 5Although the rate of heat application is not critical, the cooling cycle is most important and the conditions cited in this procedure must befollowed very closely. If they are not followed, the crystallinity of the disks and the resulting physical pr

49、operties will be markedly changed. Therefore,NOTE 1All dimensions are in millimetres.FIG. 1 Mold Assembly for the Preparation of Specimens for the Determination of Tensile PropertiesD4895 184the use of a programmed oven is recommended for the most precise sintering cycle control and the hood window shall be left down during the entiresintering procedure, the latter being an important safety consideration.9.2 Test Specimens for Standard Specific Gravity and Thermal Instability Index:9.2.1 A cylindrical preforming mold, 29-mm (1
