17、thod4.1 A test specimen of vulcanizable rubber compound isinserted into the cure meter test cavity and after a closureaction is contained in a sealed cavity under positive pressure.The cavity is maintained at some elevated vulcanizationtemperature. The rubber totally surrounds a biconical disk after

18、the dies are closed (see Fig. 2). The disk is oscillated througha small rotational amplitude (1 or 3) and this action exerts ashear strain on the test specimen.The force required to oscillateor rotate the disk to maximum amplitude is continuouslyrecorded as a function of time, with the force being p

19、ropor-tional to the shear modulus (stiffness) of the test specimen atthe test temperature. This stiffness initially decreases as itwarms up; then it increases due to vulcanization. The test iscompleted when the recorded torque either rises to an equilib-rium or maximum value, or when a predetermined

20、 time haselapsed. The time required to obtain a cure curve is a functionof the characteristics of the rubber compound and of the testtemperature (see Fig. 1 for typical cure curves).4.2 Several configurations of the oscillating disk cure meterare currently in use. Fig. 3 illustrates example shifts o

21、f the curecurves associated with the configuration differences included inthis standard. Results between tests using rapid and slowtemperature recovery, or between heated and unheated diskscannot be compared without taking the heating differences intoaccount. The differences between test curves will

22、 vary with thecompound being tested.

Diaphragmdies in combination with rapid temperature recovery or heated rotors arenot a normal configuration for Oscillating Disk Cure Meters.5. Significance and Use5.1 This t

25、est method is used to determine the vulcanizationcharacteristics of (vulcanizable) rubber compounds.5.2 This test method may be used for quality control inrubber manufacturing processes, for research and developmenttesting of raw-rubber compounded in an evaluationformulation, and for evaluating vari

26、ous raw materials used inpreparing (vulcanizable) rubber compounds.6. Apparatus6.1 Cure meter, consists of the following major components:specimen chamber and closure mechanism, temperature con-trol system, rotor drive and torque measuring system (see Fig.2 for a detailed drawing of cure meter assem

27、bly).6.2 Specimen ChamberConsists of platens, dies, and abiconical disk.6.2.1 PlatensTwo platens made of aluminum alloy, eachcontaining an electric heater, and each having in the center, acavity to accommodate a die and from the side, a well forinserting a temperature sensor.6.2.2 DiesTwo which form

28、 a cavity when closed andwhich shall be fabricated from tool steel having a minimumRockwell Hardness HRC 50. The geometry of the standarddies is shown in Figs. 4-6 with dimensions and tolerances (seeTable 1). The top and bottom surfaces of the die cavity shallcontain rectangular-shaped grooves arran

29、ged radially about thecenter and spaced at 20 intervals. Each die shall have a wellor hole drilled from the side to accommodate a temperaturesensor inserted through the platen. The upper die may be eithersolid or diaphragm type. The lower dies shall have a hole in thecenter to allow for the insertio

30、n of the disk shaft. A suitablelow-friction seal shall be provided in this hole to preventmaterial leaking from the cavity.6.2.2.1 Diaphragm Upper DieUpper die manufactured sothat the grooved die face is allowed to flex when closed on aspecimen and then to maintain essentially constant pressure onth

31、e specimen as it shrinks slightly in volume during vulcani-zation. To provide thermal conduction to the metal body of thediaphragm die, an aluminum or stainless steel insert is placedin the diaphragm space with a hole designed to accommodatethe temperature sensor. Fig. 5 describes the diaphragm type

32、upper die.6.2.2.2 Solid Upper DieUpper die formed from one pieceof steel, as described in Fig. 6.6.2.3 DiskThe biconical disk shall be fabricated from toolsteel having a minimum Rockwell Hardness of HRC 50. Thedisk shall be fitted with a stem that fits into the torque shaft.The disk is shown in Fig.

33、 7 (see Table 2).6.2.3.1 Heated DiskSome manufacturers of oscillatingdisk cure meters offer a heated rotor as an option. If the disk isheated, both torque values and cure times may be significantlyaltered. The heated disk is a modification of the biconical diskshown in Fig. 7. This modification has

34、provisions for directlycontrolling the disk temperature, as shown in Fig. 8. In thisexample, an electrical heater and temperature sensor arelocated in a metal tube, which is inserted in the disk through avertical well in the disk shaft. The well is typically 0.325 cm(0.128 in.) in diameter and exten

35、ds to within approximatelyFIG. 3 Example Cure Curves from ODR ConfigurationsFIG. 4 Lower DieD2084 1730.25 cm (0.100 in.) of the disk apex. The insertion tube istypically 0.0125 cm (0.005 in.) less than the well diameter toallow for easy tube removal for cleaning.6.2.3.2 Disk wear will affect test re

36、sults.Adisk worn to suchan extent that the disk diameter is less than the minimumdiameter shown in this procedure shall not be used.6.2.3.3 The standard frequency of the rotary oscillation ofthe disk shall be constant at 1.67 Hz (100 cpm) 61 %. Otherfrequencies may be used, if required.6.2.3.4 A rot

37、ary drive system shall be provided for oscilla-tory rotation of the disk. The amplitude of oscillation of theunloaded disk shall be constant at 61.00 with a tolerance of60.03 about the center position, that is, a total amplitude of2. Other amplitudes may be used, if specified.NOTE 2Disk and die surf

38、ace contamination may contribute toslippage. Typically, torque values over 40 dNm may be subject to slipping,thus reducing torque values. Torque values approaching 100 dNm are alsotypically compromised by a significant torsion deformation of the diskshaft. Where slipping or torsion deformation is no

39、t a concern, greatersensitivity may be possible using 63 arc of oscillation.6.2.4 Die Closing MechanismA pneumatic cylinder orother device shall close the dies and hold them closed duringthe test with a force of 11.0 6 0.5 kN (2500 6 100 lbf).NOTE 3One manufacturer recommends the source air pressure

40、 beadjusted to 345 kPa (50 psi) for a 203-mm (8-in.) diameter air cylinder.Provisions are made for this adjustment to the instrument. This pressureacting on a 203-mm (8-in.) diameter air cylinder will produce a force of11 kN (2500 lbf) on the die per the following equation:F 5 PSD24D(1)where:F = clo

41、sure force on die,P = source air pressure, andD = diameter of piston in pneumatic cylinder.To calculate maximum cavity pressure, the effect of this force acting onthe surface area of the upper die may be calculated per the followingequation:Pc54Fd2(2)where:Pc= pressure on sample in upper die cavity,

42、 andd = diameter of upper die cavity (55.9 mm (2.2 in.).SFor example , Pc5S4!11! 55.9!2D5 4485 kPa 5 650 psiD(3)6.3 Temperature Controlling SystemA temperature con-troller shall be provided for maintaining the dies within60.5C (61F) of the specified test temperature.6.3.1 Heated Disk Temperature Con

43、trolWhen the disk isheated, a temperature controller shall be provided for main-taining the disk temperature within 60.5C (61F) of thespecified test temperature.6.4 Torque Measuring SystemThe torque measuring sys-tem shall consist of a device, such as a torque transducer,producing a signal that is d

44、irectly proportional to the torquerequired to oscillate the disk. A recording system, as used inthis test method, may consist of any suitable data collectiondevice, including computers, printers, plotters, and chart re-corders. The recording system shall have a full-scale deflectionresponse on the t

45、orque scale of1sorless and be capable ofrecording the torque with accuracy of 60.5 % of the torquerange.Aminimum of four torque ranges shall be provided; 0 to25, 0 to 50, 0 to 100, and 0 to 200 dNm (or 0 to 25, 0 to 50,0 to 100, and 0 to 200 lbf in.)NOTE 4Direct proportionality between torque and st

46、iffness cannot beexpected under all test conditions, particularly in higher torque ranges,because elastic deformation of the disk shaft and driving device must betaken into account. However, for routine quality control test purposescorrections are not necessary.7. Sampling7.1 The sample shall be tak

47、en from a vulcanizable rubbercompound as required by the mixing method or other samplinginstructions.7.2 The sample shall be in sheeted form, at roomtemperature, and as free of air as possible.7.3 The temperature of the sample and its heat history cansignificantly affect test results. For referee te

48、sting and fortesting under controlled circumstances, the sample shall beconditioned at 23 6 1C (73 6 2F) for at least 1 h beforetesting.FIG. 5 Diaphragm Type Upper DieD2084 1747.4 In production control testing, samples may be testedwithout the conditioning period, but care should be taken tominimize

49、 temperature and heat history variations prior totesting.8. Test Specimen8.1 A nearly circular test specimen taken from a sampleshall have a volume of 9.5 6 1.5 cm3(0.58 6 0.09 in.3) (forexample, approximately 30 mm (1.2 in.) in diameter and 13.5mm (0.53 in.) in thickness).8.2 The test specimen is considered to be of proper sizewhen a small bead of compound is extruded uniformly aroundthe periphery of the die as it is closed (116 to 160 % of the testcavity volume). This is achieved when the test specimenvolume is between 8 and
