20、conditions including temperature, pressure of oxygen, purgegas flow rate, and the presence or absence of catalysts.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 The specimen to be tested is heated from room tempera-ture at a constant rate in a non-purging, high-pressure oxygenenvironment at a defined pressure. When

21、the specified tem-perature has been reached, the specimen is then held at thattemperature until the oxidative reaction is displayed on thethermal curve. The OIT is the time interval from the start of thetemperature program test to the onset of the oxidative reaction.4.2 In this procedure, an elevate

22、d pressure of oxygen is usedto accelerate the reaction and to reduce analysis time.4.3 Unless otherwise specified, the temperature used in thistest method shall be 150 C, and the chamber pressure is to bemaintained at 3.4 MPa 500 psi using a constant volume testcondition.5. Significance and Use5.1 T

23、he oxidative induction time is a characteristic of acompounded polyolefin product that is dependent not only onthe type and amount of additives present, but also on the typeof resin. In well-behaved systems, this test method can be usedas a quality control measure to monitor the stabilization ingeos

24、ynthetics as received from a supplier.5.2 When this test method is used to compare differentgeomembrane formulations containing different antioxidantpackages, then those results shall be considered valid only atthe temperature of test.5.3 This test method is intended as a geosynthetic test. Useof th

25、e OIT value to estimate the lifetime of the geomembranefrom which the test specimen is taken is not addressed, norshall it be used for this purpose.5.3.1 The OIT measurement is an accelerated thermal agingtest and, as such, interpretation of resulting data may bemisleading if done by an inexperience

26、d operator. Cautionshould be exercised in data interpretation since oxidationreaction kinetics are a function of temperature and the proper-ties of the additives contained in the geosynthetic sample. Forexample, OIT values are often used to select optimum resinformulations. Certain antioxidants, how

27、ever, may generatepoor OIT results even though they may be adequate at theirintended use temperature and vice versa.5.4 This test method can be used for other purposes such asmanufacturing control and research and development.5.5 Oxidation induction time is strongly dependent upontest temperature an

28、d the partial pressure of oxygen. The higherthe test temperature or the oxygen partial pressure, or both, theshorter the oxidation induction time.5.5.1 The use of high test temperature, however, may havedeleterious effects. The first of these is the potential volatiliza-tion of additive packages use

29、d to stabilize the test materials.The second is the potential for the influence of chemicalmechanisms which are not significant at end-use operationconditions.5.5.2 This test method uses high oxygen pressure to accel-erate the test period while making use of lower test tempera-tures to protect addit

30、ive packages.5.6 The results from this test method may or may notcorrelate with those obtained by other OIT measurements suchas Test Method D3895 or Test Methods D4565.6. Apparatus6.1 Differential Scanning CalorimeterThermal analysisequipment capable of heating rates up to 20 6 1 C min and ofautomat

31、ically recording the differential heat flow between thetest sample and a reference sample is necessary. The equipmentmust be capable of measuring sample temperature to 61Cwhile maintaining a set temperature to 60.5 C.NOTE 1Modern computer-based instrumentation equipped with “iso-track” modes provide

32、s adequate specimen temperature control.6.2 Data-Presentation DeviceA printer, plotter, recorder,or other recording output device capable of displaying heatflow on the y-axis versus time on the x-axis as output signalsfrom differential scanning calorimeters in 6.1.6.3 High-Pressure DSC CellAunit cap

The system shall beequipped with a pressure gage to monitor the internal pressureof the cell to permit manual release of pressure to maintaindesired level.NOTE 2The gage shall be accurate to 2 % at 3.4 MPa 500 psig.NOTE 3All pressures in this test

34、method are indicated relative toatmosphere pressurethat is, they are “gage” pressures.6.4 High-Pressure Oxygen Cylinder RegulatorA pressureregulator capable of regulating a pressure up to 5.5 MPa800 psi.

Reagents and Materials7.1 All chemical reagents used in this test method shall beanal

36、ytical grade unless otherwise specified.7.2 Hexane or Acetone, for cleaning specimen pans andstainless steel tubing, see 8.2.7.3 Indium (99.999 % Purity), for calibration purposes, see9.1.7.4 Oxygen, purity 99.5 % for the test atmosphere.8. Precautions8.1 Oxygen is a strong oxidizer that vigorously

37、acceleratescombustion. Keep oil and grease away from equipment usingor containing oxygen.8.2 The stainless steel tube connecting the high-pressurecell to the oxygen cylinder must be thoroughly cleaned byhexane (or acetone) and then dried before being connected tothe cell.8.3 The use of pressurized o

38、xygen requires appropriate andcareful handling procedures. The user of this test method shallbe familiar with the precautions described in Guide G88.9. Sampling9.1 The test sample is compression molded into sheetformat (thickness of 250 6 15 m) prior to analysis. Specimendisks (6.4-mm diameter) cut

39、from the sheet will have a weightof approximately 5 to 10 mg, depending on sample density.NOTE 4If the sample requires homogenization prior to analysis, oneof the procedures given in Appendix X1, Appendix X2,orAppendix X3is recommended. Poor sample uniformity will adversely affect testprecision.NOTE

40、 5If the sample contains a layer or layers of polymers other thanpolyolefins, the polyolefin may be tested separately from the entire crosssection. A recommended procedure is given in Appendix X4.9.2 Compression mold these assembled parts into a uniformplaque to a thickness of 0.25 mm 10 mil (see Pr

41、acticeD4703).NOTE 6The temperature at which molding takes place may be at orabove the test temperature of this test method. Prolonged exposure to airat these temperatures may induce a negative bias into OIT measurement.Molding should be performed at as low a temperature and as quickly aspossible to

42、minimize this bias.9.3 Cut test specimens from the plaque using a 6.3-mm0.25-in. bore hole cutter or punch.10. Calibration10.1 Using Test Method E967, temperature calibrate thedifferential scanning calorimeter using indium metal and aheating rate of 1 C min from 145 to 165 C.10.1.1 Perform the calib

43、ration step at least once a month orwhenever changes have occurred in the experimental setup.11. ProcedureNOTE 7Procedures for preparing the test specimen may be differentfor different polyolefin geosynthetic products, for example,geomembranes, geonets, geogrids, or geotextiles.11.1 Prepare a specim

44、en with a mass of 5 6 1 mg.11.2 Place the weighed specimen into the cleaned specimenpan.11.3 Place the specimen and reference pans into the cell.NOTE 8Open pans are used in this test method.11.4 Secure the top plate of the test chamber and tighten thecell system.11.5 Close the pressure release valve

45、 and the outlet valve.Open the inlet and pressurize the cell to 3.4 MPa 500 psioxygen. Close the inlet valve.11.6 Commence programmed heating of the specimen fromambient temperature to 150 C at a rate of 20 C min. Zerotime is taken at the initiation of the temperature program. Holdthe temperature is

46、othermally at 150 C until the oxidativeexothermic peak is detected. At the same time, the thermalcurve of the entire test is being recorded. Other test tempera-ture may be used, with the agreement of all parties concerned,but must be reported.11.7 A slight gain in pressure at the beginning of the te

47、st isanticipated as the temperature of the cell increases. Decreasethe pressure back to 3.4 MPa 500 psi by slightly opening thepressure release valve until the pressure comes down to3.4 MPa. Alternatively, if the pressure increase with an instru-ment is known, pressurize the test cell to a slightly

48、lower valueso that the pressure in the cell is 3.4 MPa 500 psi at theconclusion of the heating ramp cycle to test temperature.NOTE 9150 C is the temperature typically used for polyethylene-based material, and 170 C for polypropylene-based materials.NOTE 10The time to onset of oxidation varies with s

49、tabilizer packageand may be more than 900 min. For a first-time specimen, the isothermaltime period of 1000 min is suggested.NOTE 11The DSC cell should be cleaned by holding the cell at atemperature of 400 C for 3 min under air or oxygen atmosphere.12.
