24、s designed to differentiate the flame propa-gation characteristics of candidate materials used in lock-stripgaskets. It is a small-scale test which enables the specifier toexercise engineering prudence in the selection of materials. Itshould not be used to predict the performance of the testedmateri

25、al in an actual fire situation. It should not be used topredict fuel contribution, rate of flame spread, smoke genera-tion, or the nature of the products of combustion. Testconditions are those most conducive to flame propagation andthe method simulates the worst possible exposure condition.The spec

26、imen is mounted vertically. The igniting flame is hot;the fuel supply is unlimited; and the flame is not removed fromthe specimen throughout the test.TABLE 1 Physical Requirements and Test Methods for GasketsProperty Requirements Test MethodTensile strength, minA14 MPa (2000 psi) D 412Elongation at

33、eral material positioned within the gasketchannel or channels. It simulates actual use conditions andprovides a measurement of the force required to open the lipsof the gasket channel to that distance representing the thicknessof material for which the gasket is designed. In the case ofdouble channe

34、l gaskets, this measurement is made with a solidmaterial of the intended thickness in position in the channelopposite to that being tested. Thus these measurements reflectthe forces to be encountered during application.7.9.2 Apparatus:7.9.2.1 The testing machine shall be a power-driventension-testin

35、g machine of the movable cross-head type,equipped with adjustable cross-head speed and a suitabledynamometer and indicating or recording device for measuringthe applied force within 62%.7.9.2.2 The grips to be used with the testing machinedescribed in 7.9.2.1 shall be of a type similar to those show

36、n inFig. 1. They shall exert a uniform pressure across the grippingsurface, increasing as the tension increases, so as to preventuneven slipping.7.9.2.3 The lip dividers used to separate the lips of the testspecimen shall be made of stainless steel as shown in Fig. 2.Their length shall be at least e

37、qual to that of the test specimen.7.9.2.4 The metal spacer to be used when testing double-channel gaskets, as shown in Fig. 1, shall be the same length asthe test specimen, the same thickness as the material the gasketis designed to hold, and at least 13 mm (12 in.) wider than thedepth of the channe

38、l.7.9.3 Test Specimen:7.9.3.1 The extruded test specimen shall be a piece of theactual gasket at least 25 mm (1 in.) in length. A minimum offour specimens from each lot shall be tested.7.9.4 Procedure:7.9.4.1 Place the test specimen in the testing machine asshown in Fig. 1, ensuring that the locking

39、 strip is in place andthat, if it is a double-channel-type gasket, the specified spaceris properly positioned in the channel opposite from that beingtested. Provide means of supporting the test assembly so thatwhen tension is applied to the channel lips, the assembly willremain in a horizontal posit

40、ion (Note 3). It is important toensure that the lip dividers have a secure hold on the gasket lipsand that they are also securely held by the grips of the machine.Conduct the test at 23 6 1C (73.4 6 1.8F).NOTE 3When testing single channel gaskets, the spacers obviouslycannot be used. However, some m

41、eans must be provided to hold the testspecimen in a horizontal position during testing.7.9.4.2 Separate the lips of the gasket channel at a uniformrate of 5.1 mm (0.20 in.)/min, until the distance between thelips is equal to the minimum thickness of the material they aredesigned to hold.7.9.4.3 When

42、 the lips have been separated the specifieddistance, stop the testing machine and record the amount offorce in lbf (or kgf) required to produce this opening.7.9.4.4 Repeat 7.9.4.1-7.9.4.3 until all of the extruded chan-nels of a minimum of four specimens of each type have beentested.7.9.4.5 Calculat
