19、1 (2016)2maximum amplitude is continuously recorded as a function of time, with the force being proportional to the shear modulus(stiffness) of the test specimen at the test temperature. This stiffness initially decreases as it warms up; then it increases due tovulcanization. The test is completed w

20、hen the recorded torque either rises to an equilibrium or maximum value, or when apredetermined time has elapsed.The time required to obtain a cure curve is a function of the characteristics of the rubber compoundand of the test temperature (see Fig. 1 for typical cure curves).4.2 Several configurat

21、ions of the oscillating disk cure meter are currently in use. Fig. 3 illustrates example shifts of the curecurves associated with the configuration differences included in this standard. Results between tests using rapid and slowtemperature recovery, or between heated and unheated disks cannot be co

22、mpared without taking the heating differences intoaccount. The differences between test curves will vary with the compound being tested. Configurations included in this test methodare listed in this section.4.2.1 Diaphragm dies, unheated rotor, temperature recovery within 4.5 min.4.2.2 Solid dies, u

23、nheated rotor, temperature recovery within 4.5 min.4.2.3 Solid dies, unheated rotor, temperature recovery in less than 2 min.4.2.4 Solid dies, heated rotor, temperature recovery in less than 2 min.NOTE 1Diaphragm dies are unique to cure meters developed before rapid temperature recovery and heated r

24、otors were introduced. Diaphragm diesin combination with rapid temperature recovery or heated rotors are not a normal configuration for Oscillating Disk Cure Meters.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is used to determine the vulcanization characteristics of (vulcanizable) rubber compounds.5

25、.2 This test method may be used for quality control in rubber manufacturing processes, for research and development testingof raw-rubber compounded in an evaluation formulation, and for evaluating various raw materials used in preparing (vulcanizable)rubber compounds.6. Apparatus6.1 Cure meter, cons

26、ists of the following major components: specimen chamber and closure mechanism, temperature controlsystem, rotor drive and torque measuring system (see Fig. 2 for a detailed drawing of cure meter assembly).6.2 Specimen ChamberConsists of platens, dies, and a biconical disk.6.2.1 PlatensTwo platens m

27、ade of aluminum alloy, each containing an electric heater, and each having in the center, a cavityto accommodate a die and from the side, a well for inserting a temperature sensor.6.2.2 DiesTwo which form a cavity when closed and which shall be fabricated from tool steel having a minimum RockwellHar

28、dness HRC 50. The geometry of the standard dies is shown in Figs. 4-6 with dimensions and tolerances (see Table 1). The topand bottom surfaces of the die cavity shall contain rectangular-shaped grooves arranged radially about the center and spaced at 20intervals. Each die shall have a well or hole d

29、rilled from the side to accommodate a temperature sensor inserted through the platen.The upper die may be either solid or diaphragm type. The lower dies shall have a hole in the center to allow for the insertion ofthe disk shaft. A suitable low-friction seal shall be provided in this hole to prevent

30、 material leaking from the cavity.6.2.2.1 Diaphragm Upper DieUpper die manufactured so that the grooved die face is allowed to flex when closed on aspecimen and then to maintain essentially constant pressure on the specimen as it shrinks slightly in volume during vulcanization.To provide thermal con

31、duction to the metal body of the diaphragm die, an aluminum or stainless steel insert is placed in thediaphragm space with a hole designed to accommodate the temperature sensor. Fig. 5 describes the diaphragm type upper die.6.2.2.2 Solid Upper DieUpper die formed from one piece of steel, as describe

32、d in Fig. 6.FIG. 3 Example Cure Curves from ODR ConfigurationsD2084 11 (2016)36.2.3 DiskThe biconical disk shall be fabricated from tool steel having a minimum Rockwell Hardness of HRC 50. The diskshall be fitted with a stem that fits into the torque shaft. The disk is shown in Fig. 7 (see Table 2).

33、6.2.3.1 Heated DiskSome manufacturers of oscillating disk cure meters offer a heated rotor as an option. If the disk is heated,both torque values and cure times may be significantly altered. The heated disk is a modification of the biconical disk shown inFig. 7. This modification has provisions for

34、directly controlling the disk temperature, as shown in Fig. 8. In this example, anelectrical heater and temperature sensor are located in a metal tube, which is inserted in the disk through a vertical well in the diskshaft. The well is typically 0.325 cm (0.128 in.) in diameter and extends to within

35、 approximately 0.25 cm (0.100 in.) of the diskapex. The insertion tube is typically 0.0125 cm (0.005 in.) less than the well diameter to allow for easy tube removal for cleaning.6.2.3.2 Disk wear will affect test results.Adisk worn to such an extent that the disk diameter is less than the minimum di

36、ametershown in this procedure shall not be used.6.2.3.3 The standard frequency of the rotary oscillation of the disk shall be constant at 1.67 Hz (100 cpm) 61 %. Otherfrequencies may be used, if required.6.2.3.4 A rotary drive system shall be provided for oscillatory rotation of the disk. The amplit

37、ude of oscillation of the unloadeddisk shall be constant at 61.00 with a tolerance of 60.03 about the center position, that is, a total amplitude of 2. Otheramplitudes may be used, if specified.NOTE 2Disk and die surface contamination may contribute to slippage. Typically, torque values over 40 dNm

38、may be subject to slipping, thusreducing torque values. Torque values approaching 100 dNm are also typically compromised by a significant torsion deformation of the disk shaft. Whereslipping or torsion deformation is not a concern, greater sensitivity may be possible using 63 arc of oscillation.6.2.

39、4 Die Closing MechanismA pneumatic cylinder or other device shall close the dies and hold them closed during the testwith a force of 11.0 6 0.5 kN (2500 6 100 lbf).NOTE 3One manufacturer recommends the source air pressure be adjusted to 345 kPa (50 psi) for a 203-mm (8-in.) diameter air cylinder. Pr

40、ovisionsare made for this adjustment to the instrument. This pressure acting on a 203-mm (8-in.) diameter air cylinder will produce a force of 11 kN (2500 lbf)on the die per the following equation:F 5PS piD24 D (1)where:F = closure force on die,P = source air pressure, andD = diameter of piston in p

41、neumatic cylinder.FIG. 4 Lower DieD2084 11 (2016)4To calculate maximum cavity pressure, the effect of this force acting on the surface area of the upper die may be calculated per the following equation:Pc 5 4Fpid 2 (2)where:Pc = pressure on sample in upper die cavity, andd = diameter of upper die ca

43、d, a temperature controller shall be provided for maintainingthe disk temperature within 60.5C (61F) of the specified test temperature.6.4 Torque Measuring SystemThe torque measuring system shall consist of a device, such as a torque transducer, producinga signal that is directly proportional to the

44、 torque required to oscillate the disk. A recording system, as used in this test method,may consist of any suitable data collection device, including computers, printers, plotters, and chart recorders. The recordingsystem shall have a full-scale deflection response on the torque scale of 1 s or less

45、 and be capable of recording the torque withaccuracy of 60.5 % of the torque range. A minimum of four torque ranges shall be provided; 0 to 25, 0 to 50, 0 to 100, and 0 to200 dNm (or 0 to 25, 0 to 50, 0 to 100, and 0 to 200 lbf in.)NOTE 4Direct proportionality between torque and stiffness cannot be

46、expected under all test conditions, particularly in higher torque ranges, becauseelastic deformation of the disk shaft and driving device must be taken into account. However, for routine quality control test purposes corrections arenot necessary.7. Sampling7.1 The sample shall be taken from a vulcan

47、izable rubber compound as required by the mixing method or other samplinginstructions.FIG. 5 Diaphragm Type Upper DieD2084 11 (2016)57.2 The sample shall be in sheeted form, at room temperature, and as free of air as possible.7.3 The temperature of the sample and its heat history can significantly a

48、ffect test results. For referee testing and for testingunder controlled circumstances, the sample shall be conditioned at 23 6 1C (73 6 2F) for at least 1 h before testing.7.4 In production control testing, samples may be tested without the conditioning period, but care should be taken to minimizete

49、mperature and heat history variations prior to testing.8. Test Specimen8.1 A nearly circular test specimen taken from a sample shall have a volume of 9.5 6 1.5 cm3 (0.58 6 0.09 in.3) (for example,approximately 30 mm (1.2 in.) in diameter and 13.5 mm (0.53 in.) in thickness).8.2 The test specimen is considered to be of proper size when a small bead of compound is extruded uniformly around theperiphery of the die as it is closed (116 to 160 % of the test cavity volume). This is achieved when the test specimen volume isbetween
