Summary of Test Method4.1A small piece of the core material is conditioned in various moisture conditions, and the amount of moisture absorbed ismeasured by the weight increase in the specimen.4.1 This test method consists of exp

19、osing sandwich core specimen to a defined moisture condition, and determining the amountof water absorbed by measuring the mass increase in the specimen.5. Significance and Use5.1The moisture content of most core materials is related to such properties as electrical properties (such as dielectric co

20、nstant,loss tangent, and electrical resistance) and mechanical properties (such as strength and modulus). The amount of weight thestructure may gain by the core absorbing water is also important. It should be noted that in a sandwich panel there are facingsbonded on two sides of the core that affect

21、 the amount of water absorbed by the core.5.1 Absorbed water affects the characteristic properties of sandwich core materials, such as electrical properties (for example,dielectric constant, loss tangent, and electrical resistance) and mechanical properties (for example, strength and modulus). Thema

22、ss of absorbed water may also affect the behavior of sandwich structures. It should be noted that in a sandwich panel thepresence of facings bonded on two sides of the core may affect the amount of water absorbed by the core.5.2 This test method provides a standard method of obtaining sandwich core

23、moisture absorption data for design properties,material specifications, research and development applications, and quality assurance.5.3 Factors that influence the water absorption and shall therefore be reported include the following: core material, methods ofmaterial fabrication, core geometry (ho

24、neycomb cell size, honeycomb cell wall thickness, foam pore size, etc.), specimengeometry, specimen preparation, methods of mass and dimensional measurement, specimen conditioning, and moisture contentduring mass and dimensional measurements.6. Interferences6.1 Material and Specimen PreparationCrack

25、s in the specimen and rough surfaces can increase the apparent waterabsorption. Poor material fabrication practices and damage induced by improper specimen machining are known causes of highdata scatter in composites and sandwich structures in general. Important aspects of sandwich core specimen pre

26、paration thatcontribute to data scatter include the existence of joints, voids or other core discontinuities, out-of-plane curvature, and surfaceroughness. Cracks in the specimen and rough surfaces can increase the apparent water absorption.6.2 Surface WaterSome core materials tend to collect water

27、on the surfaces or trap water in corners, and, if not removed willgive incorrect results.6.3 EnvironmentResults are affected by the environmental conditions under which specimens are conditioned.7.
