Particular care should be taken when openingstorage vessels at elevated temperatures due to the increasedvolatility

23、of organics and the increased activity of acids andbases. Care must also be taken to prevent the spilling ofhazardous materials and provisions must be made to clean upany accidental spills that do occur.7.2 Before carrying out any test, safety precautions anddisposal procedures for hazardous waste,

24、chemicals or immer-sion liquids, and any contaminated geogrid materials should beidentified and implemented to provide full protection to allpersonnel and to comply with applicable disposal regulations.8.

Conditioning Before Immersion10.1 GeogridsCondition samples at 21 6 2 C (70 64 F) and a relative humidity between 50 and 70 % for not lessthan 40 h prior to weighing or baseline testing and immersion,or all of these.10.2 Test LiquidCondition the test

29、 liquid (that is, immer-sion liquid) in the exposure tank, with stirring, for a period ofnot less than 24 h at a recommended immersion temperature inPractice D5322 or Practice D5496, or both.11. Procedure11.1 Geogrid:11.1.1 Immerse a sufficient number of coupons in the testsolution as specified in P

30、ractice D5322 or Practice D5496,orboth, to perform the required statistical testing for eachimmersion period called for in 11.4.11.1.2 Immerse additional coupons for weight changes andvolatile loss during each immersion period. Record the weightof the coupon to an accuracy of at least 0.1 % of the c

31、ouponsweight.11.1.3 Remove the required and recommended number ofcoupons for testing at the prescribed test period. Elevatedtemperature coupons should be allowed to cool to roomtemperature in a sample of the immersion fluid. Rinse eachcoupon with deionized water and remove any visible liquidresidue

32、on the coupon surface by blotting lightly with water-absorbent, lint-free paper towels. Coupons should be stored ina sealed container with minimum void volume so as tominimize moisture or volatile(s) loss, or both.NOTE 1The prescribed test period is to be determined by the partiesinvolved.NOTE 2Coup

34、reparation:11.3.1 Remove coupons, one at a time, from storage in thesame order that they entered storage; that is, first in becomesfirst out.11.3.2 Cut test specimens from coupons.11.3.3 Between tests, specimens should be kept in anairtight container.11.4 The tests to be performed on a geogrid are l

35、isted inSection 16. All tests should be completed on the exposedspecimens after each test period. Only one set of tests must becompleted on the unexposed specimens to establish a baselineof data. For the initial data base, twice as many specimens aslisted below should be tested on the unexposed mate
