1、Designation: C 271/C 271M 05Standard Test Method forDensity of Sandwich Core Materials1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 271/C 271M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the yearof original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A n

2、umber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the densityof sandwich construction core materials. Permissible corematerial forms include

3、 those with continuous bonding surfaces(such as balsa wood and foams) as well as those withdiscontinuous bonding surfaces (such as honeycomb).1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text theinch-pound units are shown in bracke

4、ts. The values stated ineach system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each systemmust be used independently of the other. Combining valuesfrom the two systems may result in nonconformance with thestandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated

5、 with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use5.1 Density is a fundamental physical property that can beused in conjunction with other properties to characterize thesandwich core. Most sandwich core structural properties, suchas strength and stiffness, are prop

16、ortional to the density.5.2 This test method provides a standard method of obtain-ing sandwich core density data for design properties, materialspecifications, research and development applications, andquality assurance.5.3 Factors that influence the density and shall therefore bereported include th

17、e following: core material, methods ofmaterial fabrication, core geometry (nominal cell size), speci-men geometry, specimen preparation, methods of weight anddimensional measurement, specimen conditioning, and mois-ture content during weight and dimensional measurements.6. Interferences6.1 Material

18、and Specimen PreparationPoor materialfabrication practices and damage induced by improper speci-men machining are known causes of high data scatter incomposites and sandwich structures in general. Importantaspects of sandwich core specimen preparation that contributeto data scatter include the exist

19、ence of joints, voids or othercore discontinuities, out-of-plane curvature, and surface rough-ness.6.2 GeometrySpecific geometric factors that affect sand-wich density measurement include uniformity of core cellgeometry and core thickness.6.3 EnvironmentResults are affected by the environmen-tal con

20、ditions under which specimens are conditioned, as wellas the conditions under which the tests are conducted. Speci-mens tested in various environments, with different ambientmoisture contents, can exhibit significant differences in mea-sured density.7. Apparatus7.1 Oven or Vacuum Drying ChamberAn ai

21、r-circulatingoven is required that shall be capable of maintaining therequired uniform temperatures to within 63C 65F. Avacuum drying chamber or a vacuum oven may also be used.7.2 DesiccatorA clean, dry desiccator in which speci-mens being oven-dried shall be brought to laboratory tempera-ture follo

22、wing removal of the specimens from the oven.7.3 Micrometers and CalipersA micrometer having a flatanvil interface, or a caliper of suitable size, shall be used. Theaccuracy of the instrument(s) shall be suitable for reading towithin 0.5 % of the specimen length, width and thickness. Fortypical speci

23、men geometries, an instrument with an accuracyof 625 m 60.001 in. is desirable for length, width, andthickness measurement.7.4 Balance or Weighing ScaleAn analytical balance orweighing scale is required that is capable of measuringaccurately to 60.5 %.7.5 GlovesClean, non-linting gloves for use when

24、 han-dling specimens.8. Sampling and Test Specimens8.1 SamplingTest at least five specimens per test condi-tion unless valid results can be gained through the use of fewerspecimens, as in the case of a designed experiment. Forstatistically significant data, consult the procedures outlined inPractice

25、 E 122. Report the method of sampling.8.2 GeometryTest specimens shall have a square or rect-angular cross-section. The recommended minimum specimensize is 300 mm 12.0 in. in length by 300 mm 12.0 in. inwidth, with the thickness equal to the sandwich core thickness.NOTE 1The specimens cross-sectiona

26、l area (length times width) isdefined in the facing plane, in regard to the orientation that the core wouldbe placed in a structural sandwich construction. For example, for ahoneycomb core the cross-sectional area is defined in the plane of thecells, which is perpendicular to the orientation of the

27、cell walls.8.3 Specimen Preparation and MachiningPrepare the testspecimens so that the facing plane surfaces are parallel to eachother and perpendicular to the sides of the specimen. Takeprecautions when cutting specimens from large sheets of coreto avoid notches, undercuts, rough or uneven surfaces

28、 due toinappropriate machining methods. Obtain final dimensions bylubricated precision sawing, milling, or grinding. The use ofdiamond tooling has been found to be extremely effective formany material systems. Record and report the specimen cuttingpreparation method.8.4 LabelingLabel the test specim

29、ens so that they will bedistinct from each other and traceable back to the sheet oforigin, and will neither influence the test nor be affected by it.9.
