Summary of Test Method4.1 The exposed surface area of the prepreg material testspecimen is increased by cutting the test specimen into smallerpieces. The test specimen is weighed and the matrix materi

28、alremoved by means of Soxhlet extraction. The extracted residueis dried and weighed. If a filler is present in the residue, inaddition to reinforcement, the two components are separatedby filtering the residue. From mass measurements of the initialtest specimen, and of the residue taken at various s

29、tages in theprocess, the matrix content, reinforcement content, and fillercontent are calculated and reported in weight percent.4.1.1 Soxhlet ProcessWhile described in detail in com-mon quantitative chemical analysis textbooks, the Soxhletprocess is summarized as follows. The test specimen is loaded

30、into a filtering extraction thimble, which is placed into theextraction chamber of a Soxhlet extraction assembly (see Fig.1) containing an appropriate extraction reagent. The porousthimble allows the liquid extraction reagent to pass whileretaining the test specimen. Freshly distilled liquid reagent

31、enters from the top of the extraction chamber, filling it until theliquid reaches the highest level of the reagent-return tube. Atthis moment the tube operates as a siphon, draining theextraction chamber completely as it returns the liquid reagentand any extracted material to a reservoir beneath the

32、 extractionchamber. The heated reservoir boils the reagent, the vapor ofwhich is led to a condenser placed above the extractionchamber. The distilled condensate then drips down into thethimble, starting once again the process of filling the extractionchamber. The Soxhlet operation is not a continuou

33、s operation,but rather a sequence of fillings and siphonings, each cycle ofwhich is called a reflux change. The heat input and reagentvolume are adjusted to cause the boiling reagent to return to the4See Form and Style for ASTM Standards.C613M 97 (2008)12extraction flask from the condenser at 3 to 1

34、0 reflux changesper hour, with the extraction continuing for a minimum of 4 hor 20 reflux changes, whichever comes first.4.1.2 Volatiles ContentVolatiles content is primarily ap-plicable to thermosetting materials, and, if required, is deter-mined by Test Method D3530/D3530M. Volatiles contentdeterm

35、ination requires different test specimens than those usedin the extraction process, since the process of determiningvolatiles content renders thermosetting material specimensunsuitable for subsequent organic solvent extraction.5. Significance and Use5.1 The prepreg volatiles content, matrix content,

36、 reinforce-ment content, and filler content of composite prepreg materialsare used to control material manufacture and subsequentfabrication processes, and are key parameters in the specifica-tion and production of such materials, as well as in thefabrication of products made with such materials.5.2

37、 The extraction products resulting from this test method(the extract, the residue, or both) can be analyzed to assesschemical composition and degree of purity.6. Interferences6.1 Extent of Cure in Thermosetting SystemsThe effi-ciency of extraction for thermosetting matrix materials isdirectly relate

38、d to the extent of cure of the resin system. Resinsthat have started to cross-link (such as B-staged resins) will beincreasingly more difficult to extract as the cure advances. Thistest method may not be appropriate for such materials; TestMethods D3171 or D2584 may be better test method choices.6.2

39、 Reagent SelectionThe proper reagent, in a suitablequantity, must be selected for the constituents under test. Thereagents listed in Section 8 are provided for consideration,particularly with regard to thermosetting materials, but cannotbe assured to perform well on all material systems within thesc

40、ope of this test method.6.3 Thimble ContaminationIf the extract is to undergofurther analysis, the thimble must be clean to avoid a signifi-cant source of contamination.6.4 Reinforcement Mass Change As a Result of ReagentThe calculations of this test method assume that the reinforce-ment mass (or fi

41、ller, if filler content is being determined) is notsignificantly affected (whether mass increase or mass loss) byexposure to the reagent. Small, consistent changes in thereinforcement mass caused by exposure to the reagent can becorrected by the process described in 14.4.5. The resultingcorrection m

42、ay be used if this change is sufficiently reproduc-ible under the conditions of the test, and if this change has thesame value for the reinforcement alone as for the reinforcementin the matrix. Otherwise, a different reagent, or another testmethod, must be selected.7. Apparatus7.1 General Requiremen
