Significance and Use4.1 The significance of these test methods lies in the abilityto differentiate between the degrees of ozone resistance underthe limited and specified conditions of the accelerated tests.The degree of resistance being judged by the

24、 appearance andmagnitude of the formation of cracks in the surface of thesubject material.4.2 In service, rubber materials deteriorate when exposed toozone. It is imperative to have test methods in which simple,accelerated time/exposure, comparisons of the materials abil-ity to resist cracking cause

25、d by ozone exposure can beempirically evaluated. Such tests can be used for producer/consumer acceptance, referee purposes, research, and develop-ment.4.3 These methods are not necessarily suited for use inpurchase specifications as there may be no correlation withservice performance as actual servi

26、ce conditions (outdoorexposure) vary widely due to geographic location and, there-fore, may not yield repeatable or reproducible results.5. Apparatus5.1 The apparatus employed to provide a controlled envi-ronment containing specified concentrations of ozone andpartial pressures, at specified tempera

27、tures, is described in 5.2,being common to all test methods enumerated herein. Theancillary equipment required to perform individual proceduresis described in their respective sections.5.2 Ozone Test Apparatus:5.2.1 Test ChamberGeneral requirements for an accept-able ozone test chamber are adequate

28、control and measurementof ozone concentration levels based upon partial pressure (referto Note 1); volume exchange rate; temperature; internal cham-ber circulation of the gas (airozone mixture, refer to Note 3);and internal chamber volume. An acceptable ozone test cham-ber may be individually manufa

29、ctured for a particular applica-tion, or a commercially manufactured chamber. The ozone testchambers shall conform to the following requirements:NOTE 3Daltons Law and the gas equation is used to express ozonecontent as partial pressure. The partial pressure of ozone in a mixture withair, P(O3), is g

30、iven in millipascals (mPa).5.2.1.1 The internal chamber shall be constructed of amaterial with minimal reaction to ozone, preferably stainlesssteel, contained within an integral external structure whichprovide unencumbered access to the mechanical, electrical,display, and control devices.(1) The int

31、ernal chamber shall be accessible through a doorhaving an adequate closure mechanism and seal to prevent lossof partial pressure or adversely affect the ozone concentrationlevels throughout the duration of a test. It is recommended thatthe door have a means by which to prevent inadvertent openingdur

32、ing the intended duration of a test.(2) The access door may be equipped with an observationwindow. This shall be of tempered glass and shall be sealed toprevent loss of partial pressure or adversely affect the ozoneconcentration level throughout the duration of a test.(3) The internal chamber may be

33、 equipped with a source ofillumination. It shall be situated in a manner so that neither thetemperature of the internal chamber, the ozone concentrationlevel, or partial pressure is adversely affected. Illumination is tobe used in a temporary fashion, intended for intermediateviewing of the specimen

34、s. Long term use, in excess of aconsecutive 5-min period, or more than a total of 15 min,during any given 24-h period, invalidates determinations andtherefore requires monitoring and reporting.(4) The internal chamber may be equipped with shelves, orracks, on which to place specimens. They shall be

35、constructedof a material with minimal reaction to ozone, preferablystainless steel. They shall be of a design that minimizes theeffect on the introduction, circulation, exchange, or exhaust ofthe gas (airozone mixture).5.2.1.2 The internal volume of the chamber shall be no lessthan 0.11 m (4 ft3). T

36、he internal chamber volume may begreater, provided the prescribed levels of ozone concentrationand partial pressure are maintained (refer to 5.2.1.3(1) andNote 1).5.2.1.3 A means for generating, measuring, and controllingozone concentrations levels and partial pressure shall beD1149072provided. The

37、ozone generating source shall be isolated fromthe internal chamber and within the integral external structure.(1) The generation and introduction of ozone shall be by ameans whereby ozone concentration levels in the internal testchamber of between 25 and 200 pphm (parts per hundredmillion) 6 10 % at

38、 100 kPa (atmospheric pressure at mean sealevel, MSL) and the equivalent pressures of between 25 and200 mPa 6 10 % are maintained throughout the duration of thetest (refer to Notes 1 and 2). The preferred method of ozonegeneration being either quartz UV, corona discharge (dielec-tric), or a combinat

39、ion of both.(2) The test chamber ozone concentration levels andpressures shall be either infinitely variable between thoseprescribed or, at minimum, selectable at 25, 50, 100, 200 pphmand mPa, respectively. Broader ranges of ozone concentrationand partial pressure are acceptable, provided the specif

40、iedconcentrations of ozone and partial pressure are maintained asspecified.(3) The means of measurement of the ozone concentrationshall be by any of the methods described in Test MethodsD 4575, with ultraviolet (UV) absorption measurement beingpreferred as it has been shown to be more accurate and p

41、recise.5.2.1.4 The source of air may be ambient, or from acompressed air supply. In either case, adequate filtration ofparticulate matter from the source shall be provided. Themoisture content of the air source shall be minimized, eitherthrough filtration, a desiccant, or by other means.5.2.1.5 The

42、flow of the gases (air and ozone) shall beintroduced into the chamber in a manner that prevents strati-fication or stagnation.5.2.1.6 The gas (airozone mixture) exchange rate shall beof a magnitude such that no appreciable reduction in ozoneconcentration or partial pressure results from the introduc

43、tionof test specimens.(1) The exchange rate will vary with the gas (airozonemixture) level, temperature, number of test specimens intro-duced, and their reaction with ozone.(2) A gas (airozone mixture) exchange rate of 75 % of thetotal volume of the internal chamber per minute has been foundto be an

44、 acceptable and adequate rate, and shall be consideredto be the minimum acceptable rate of gas exchange.(3) As indicated, this exchange rate will vary, dependentupon the enumerated variables, and the minimum exchangerate shall be established locally, as agreed upon betweencustomer and supplier, or b

45、etween laboratories, but shall not beless than that described in 5.2.1.6(2).5.2.1.7 A means of providing internal chamber circulationof the gas (airozone mixture) shall be provided by an electricfan capable of maintaining a constant velocity throughout theduration of a test. The velocity shall be no

46、 less than 0.6 m/s(2 ft/s) as measured at 50 6 1 mm (1.97 6 0.04 in.) from theforward edge of the fan blades on the internal side of thechamber.(1) The fan motor shall not be located within the internalchamber. The fan motor shall employ an extension shaft, ordrive mechanism, that isolates the motor

47、 from the internalchamber with an ozone resistant seal that assures the integrityof separation between the motor and the internal chamber.(2) The fan blades shall be recessed from the chamber andseparated, or enclosed, by a protective mesh or grid-like cage.5.2.1.8 A means of controlling the interna

48、l chamber tem-perature to within 6 1C (6 1.8F) of that established, ordesired, throughout the duration of a test, shall be provided.(1) The standard test temperature shall be 40 6 1C(104 6 1.8 F). Other temperatures may be established locally,agreed upon between customer and supplier, or betweenlabo

49、ratories. It is recommended that the standard temperaturesgiven in Practice D 1349 be followed.(2) Testing at subnormal or elevated temperatures requiresthe use of refrigerated chambers or chambers having additionalheating capability. These shall meet all other requirements asdescribed heretofore.5.2.1.9 Chambers shall be equipped so that concentrationsof ozone are safely exhausted from the internal test chamber soas not to introduce them to the proximal ambient atmosphere(refer to 1.4). This shall be accomplished by properly exhaust-ing the gas (
