19、RODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL INTRODUCTION 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover a program applicable to parts that have been molded or fabricated from polymeric material and describe the material-identity control system intended to provide traceability of the material used for

20、 the polymeric parts through the handling, molding or fabrication, and shipping operations. Guidelines are also provided for acceptable blending or simple compounding operations that may affect risk of re, electrical shock, or injury to persons. 1.2 This program is intended to provide quick vericati

21、on of material identication by means of an identication marking on the part, or on the carton in which the part is shipped, or in a specication sheet placed within the shipping carton with the part. This program is intended to eliminate the uncertainty of the polymeric material identity in the end-u

22、se product and to reduce the possibility of eld problems caused by the use of incorrect compounds. 1.3 The polymeric-material identity program covered by this standard is intended to provide traceability for molded nished parts (that is, enclosures, internal equipment parts, and the like) that are t

23、o be factory-installed components of other equipment where the acceptability of the combination is to be determined. 1.4 This program is not intended for manufacturing operations that add colorants or other additives to plastic materials using hot-compounding techniques that subject the material to

24、an additional heat history and ship pellets as nished parts. This program is not intended to provide traceability for polymeric materials that are intended for eld installation. 1.5 Requirements and methods for the evaluation of metallized or painted parts are contained in the Standard for Polymeric

25、 Materials Use in Electrical Equipment Evaluations, UL 746C, and the requirements for Polymeric Materials Short Term Property Evaluations, UL 746A. Reference should be made to the applicable individual product standard for performance requirements covering the part or assembly. 2 Glossary 2.1 For th

26、e purposes of this Standard the following denitions apply. 2.2 CO-MOLDING The process of injecting or extruding two or more materials into a single mold using two or more plasticizing cylinders or through a single dye being fed by separate extruders either simultaneously or in sequence. 2.3 FABRICAT

27、OR Performs such nishing operations as machining, drilling, painting, plating, assembly, hot stamping, and the like. 2.4 GENERICALLY SIMILAR MATERIALS Materials having the same basic chemical constituents and structure but differing in the amounts of llers, modiers, and/or reinforcements. 2.5 LET-DO

28、WN RATIO The proportion by weight of additive or concentrate to the base resin material. The maximum let-down ratio is the highest permissible proportion by weight of the additive or concentrate to the base resin material. The minimum let-down ratio is the lowest permissible proportion by weight of

29、the additive or concentrate to the base resin material. 2.6 MOLDER Performs injection, extrusion, transfer, compression, rotational, co-molding, thermoforming, reaction injection molding, pultrusion, open mold or hand lay-up processes.

30、 4UL COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL NOT AUTHORIZED FOR FURTHER REPRODUCTION OR DISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM UL 2.7 POLYMERIC MATERIAL A compound formed by chemical reaction that results in large molecules whose molecular weight is a multiple of that of the original substance (monomer). Includes thermo

31、plastic, thermoset, and elastomeric materials. 2.8 RECONSTITUTED PLASTIC A material made by chemical or thermal breakdown of plastic waste into components followed by their conversion into a nal composition by chemical action. 2.9 RECYCLED PLASTIC BASE COLOR The color of the recycled resin arising f

32、rom pigments and dyes that are in the as received resin and prior to any further addition of pigments or dyes. For example, the base color of a recycled plastics resin can be gray or black with the actual color depending on the distribution of pigments and dyes given the multiple plastics being recy

33、cled in the recycled plastics stream. 2.10 RECYCLED PLASTICS Those plastics composed of post-consumer material or recovered material only, or both, that may or may not have been subjected to additional processing steps of the types used to make products such as recycled-regrind, or reprocessed or re

34、constituted plastics. 2.11 RECYCLED PLASTICS STREAM Plastic pellets incorporating one or more grades of the plastic material that has been recovered from post-consumer or post-industrial sources. 2.12 REGRIND A noncontaminated product or scrap such as sprues and runners that have been reclaimed by s

35、hredding and granulating for use in-house. 2.13 REPROCESSED PLASTIC Regrind or recycled-regrind material that has been processed for reuse by extruding and forming into pellets or by other appropriate treatment. 3 References 3.1 General 3.1.1 Any undated reference to a code or standard appearing in

36、the requirements of this Standard shall be interpreted as referring to the latest edition of that code or standard. 3.2 Related Standards 3.2.1 The requirements in Standard Tests for Flammability of Plastic Materials for Parts in Devices and Appliances, UL 94, covers ammability of polymeric material

37、s used for parts in devices and appliances. The Standard for Polymeric Materials Short Term Property Evaluations, UL 746A, contains short-term test procedures to be used for the evaluation of materials used for parts intended for specic applications in electrical end products. The Standard for Polym

38、eric Materials Long Term Property Evaluations, UL 746B, contains long-term test procedures to be used for the evaluation of materials used for parts intended for specic applications in end products. Test procedures are provided in the Standard for Polymeric Materials Use in Electrical Equipment Eval

39、uations, UL 746C, for the evaluation of polymeric materials in specic applications in end products. The test procedures include reference to the data obtained from the standard property tests in UL 746A, as well as other practical means of evaluation.

41、ives and colorants, and the blending of two or more materials, are described in this Standard. 4 Details 4.1 The molder/fabricator of the polymeric-material parts shall maintain records that facilitate tracing the identity of the polymeric material used in the molding/fabrication of the parts from i

42、ts receipt from the material supplier, through storage, handling, molding, nishing operations, and shipping. See Figure 4.1. Exception: Records covering subcontracted fabrication processes are not required if the markings described in Details, Section 11 are permanently molded into, or applied to th

43、e part, and the integrity of the marking is intact after all fabrication processes. 4.2 The following is an example of the records that may be maintained by the molder/fabricator to comply with the requirements in 4.1. a) Purchase Order Orders part or assembly from a molder/fabricator.
