1、Designation: C 1147 01 (Reapproved 2006)Standard Practice forDetermining the Short Term Tensile Weld Strength ofChemical-Resistant Thermoplastics1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 1147; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in

2、 the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers the preparation and evaluation ofjoints between two pieces of

3、 weldable grades of thermoplasticmaterials, backed and unbacked, (such as those shown in Table1) up to 2 in. (50 mm) in thickness.1.2 Since there are numerous new technologies and tech-niques constantly being developed for plastic welding, thereare no profiles and procedures that can be considered a

4、sstandard for all plastics at various thicknesses. This practice isnot intended to define profiles and procedures; however, it isintended to establish methods to evaluate minimum short termweld factors to be achieved by the welder for the respectiveplastics.1.3 Weld procedures used for test pieces s

5、hould reflectprocedures to be used in actual fabrication.1.4 Welding methods to be used could include machinewelding, extrusion welding, and hot gas welding.1.5 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.2. Referen

7、, see Terminology C 904.4. Summary of Practice4.1 The sheets are prepared and welded. Tensile test speci-mens containing a section of the weld are prepared and tested.Specimens of unwelded sheet are tested and compared to thewelded specimens. The short term weld factor determined iscompared to the s

8、tandard (see Table 2), or to the factor agreedupon between the supplier and the user.5. Significance and Use5.1 The mechanical performance of welded thermoplasticstructures is largely dependent on the quality of the weldingoperation. Fabricators should determine that the proper weld-ing procedures a

9、re being followed and that welders maintaintheir proficiency. Results from this practice are indicative ofskill in proper welding procedures for different thermoplasticmaterials and the use of appropriate welding equipment. If thewelded test specimens have short term weld factors that meetor exceed

10、the minimums as set forth in this practice, or asagreed to by supplier and user, it may be concluded that, withthe same degree of skill and diligence by the welder, acceptablewelds should be obtained in fabricated structures.6. Apparatus6.1 The apparatus for welding shall consist of the following:6.

Test Specimens7.

20、1 Test Pieces For Hot Gas and Extrusion WeldingStartwith a 10 by 42 in. (250 by 1050 mm) piece of plastic sheet ofthe type and thickness to be tested. Cut the sheet as shown inFig. 1 to yield five pieces, four measuring 5 by 18 in. (125 by450 mm) and one measuring 6 by 10 in. (150 by 250 mm). Two5 b

21、y 18 in. pieces will be used for horizontal welding and two5 by 18 in. pieces for vertical welding.7.1.1 The 6 by 10 in. sample will be cut into controlspecimens as described in Section 7.2.2. Label each piece as totype of plastic, method of welding, orientation of welding andwelder identification.7

22、.1.2 Edge PreparationBevel one 18 in. (450 mm) edgeof each 5 by 18 in. piece in preparation for welding. Bevelingshall be done using suitable apparatus such as routers, sanders,joiners, or saws, that accurately reflect methods utilized in thefield. Typical bevel profiles for the various sheet thickn

23、essesare illustrated in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3. These profiles are optionaland do not have to be used by the fabricator to meet the weldtest standard, however, experience has shown that the use ofbeveled edges is advantageous to weld quality in sheet greaterthan 60 mils (1.5 mm) in thickness in hot gas a

24、nd extrusionwelding processes. Do not use solvents or other chemicals forcleaning the beveled surfaces that in any way will adverselyaffect the properties of the plastic. The cleaning operationshould not in any way alter the profile or bevel of the edge.Details of bevels and test procedures used sho

25、uld accompanytest specimens and the report of test results.7.1.3 Welding ProcedureSecurely clamp the test sheets tobe welded to a suitable fixture and adjust welding devicetemperature as specified in Table 1. Weld two specimens, onevertically to simulate tank walls, and one horizontally tosimulate t

26、ank floors. If a machine such as a hot plate welder orother equipment that is in a fixed position is being used, thetwo test specimens, cut and configured as in 7.1, are welded inTABLE 2 Minimum Short Term Weld FactorsThermoplastic Hot Gas Extrusion Hot PlateHDPE 0.8 0.8 0.9PP 0.8 0.8 0.9PVC 0.8A0.9

The completed weld may be projecting above orbe flush with adjacent surfaces.7.2 Preparation of Test Specimens:7.2.1 Weld Test SpecimensCut and discard a 1 in. st

29、rip offeach end of an 18 by 10 in. welded specimen resulting in apiece 16 by 10 in. (400 by 250 mm). Cut remaining pieceacross the weld into 1 6 0.01 in. (25 6 0.25 mm wide) by 10in. (250 mm) long strips. The width of the test specimens canbe varied depending on the capacity of the tensile machine a

30、ndthe type and thickness of plastic being tested. Set aside at least10 of these specimens from the vertically welded sample andthe same number from the horizontal for weld test evaluationand condition a minimum of 16 h at 73 6 4F (23 6 2C).7.2.2 Control SpecimensCut 5 pieces off the 6 by 10 in.contr
