1、Designation: D748 00 (Reapproved 2011)An American National StandardStandard Specification forNatural Block Mica and Mica Films Suitable for Use in FixedMica-Dielectric Capacitors1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D748; the number immediately following the designation indicates the

Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers natural block mica2and mic

Significance and Use4.1 The properties included in this specification are thoserequired to identify the types of natural block mi

6、ca and micafilms (cut and uncut) suitable for use in the manufacture offixed mica-dielectric capacitors. There may be other require-ments necessary to identify particular characteristics. Thesewill be added to the specification as their inclusion becomesgenerally desirable, and the necessary test da

7、ta and methodsbecome available. Natural block mica and mica films that donot conform to the requirements of this specification forcapacitor use may well be capable of meeting the requirementsfor other critical electrical insulation purposes.4.2 The system of classifying electrical quality of natural

8、block and mica films (cut and uncut) covered by this specifi-cation is based on a combination of electrical and physicalproperties, and visual qualities specified herein, which the micamust possess. This system differs radically from past practicesand previous concepts of mica quality for capacitor

9、use. Theelectrical classification system does not discriminate againstthe presence of spots and stains in even first quality electricallyselected mica, provided the mica conforms to specific andphysical requirements. Appreciable amounts of air inclusionsand waviness also are permitted in all electri

10、cal quality classes,provided the mica meets specific electrical and physicalrequirements. Mica meeting these requirements is acceptablewithout regard to color or origin. However, mica meeting theseelectrical and physical requirements but having lower visualquality than that meeting the requirements

11、for the visual qualityclassification is not considered generally as desirable.4.3 In capacitor fabrication, one or more pieces of cut filmor block mica having lower than required electrical andphysical properties may prevent meeting the end requirementsof the capacitor. It is therefore required that

12、 each piece of block(cut) or film (cut or uncut), or both, be tested for the electricalrequirements and inspected for the visual requirements listed inthis specification.5.

Classes7.1 This specification covers the following four classes andsubdivisions of natural block mica or mica films. The cla

19、ss ofmica desired shall be specified by the purchaser. Block mica ormica films shall conform to all of the requirements of itsrespective class, unless otherwise specified by the purchaser.7.1.1 Class C-1 SpecialClass C-1 special mica films, inaddition to having the highest Q obtainable for mica in t

20、hemegacycle range also have the highest Q generally obtainablefor mica in the audio frequency range (1000 min at 1 kHz).Such mica therefore is particularly suitable for capacitorswhich must meet highest Q requirements at both high and lowfrequencies.7.1.2 Class C-1Class C-1 block mica or mica films

21、havethe highest Q value obtainable for mica (2500 min at 1 MHz incapacitors) and is suitable for use in all sizes and types of silverand foil electrode, molded and clamped unit capacitors, includ-ing the most critical types, for use in high stability tunedcircuits, as well as high current radio freq

22、uency capacitors usedin radio transmitter circuits.NOTE 2Based6on commerical experience Class C-1 block mica ormica films are satisfactory for the manufacture of all of these types of micacapacitors. However, it has been found that “medium to heavy” air-stainedmica may produce a slightly lower yield

23、 of highest stability and highcurrent radio frequency types of capacitors as well as a somewhat loweryield of satisfactory silver electrode mica laminations. Likewise, “mediumto heavy” wavy mica may also adversely influence the application ofsilver electrodes. In addition, there is some possibility

24、that excessivewaviness may cause cracked laminations in molded capacitors due to thehigh molding pressures employed and it may be less suitable from astacking standpoint. Similarly, some reduction in unit volume capacitanceof foil electrode capacitors may result from excessive amounts of either airi

25、nclusions or waviness.7.1.3 Class C-2Class C-2 block mica and mica films havea high order of Q value (1500 min at 1 MHz in capacitors) andare suitable for use in all sizes and types of silver and foilelectrode molded and clamped unit capacitors similar to thosespecified for Class C-1 mica. However,

26、a certain percentage ofcapacitors made with Class C-2 block mica and films mayshow a somewhat higher temperature rise in transmitter typesthan capacitors made with Class C-1 block mica or mica films.7.1.4 Class C-3Class C-3 block mica and mica films havethe lowest Q value (200 min at 1 MHz in capaci

27、tors) of thethree classes covered by this specification. Such Q value,however, is sufficiently high to permit this mica to be classedas a low-loss insulating material. This mica is particularlysuitable for use in foil electrode molded and clamped typecapacitors (Note 3) used in less critical circuit

28、s for blockingand coupling purposes where high Q value, high stability, andlow temperature coefficient are not required.NOTE 3Experience has shown that silver electrode molded capacitorsmade with Class C-3 mica which contained slightly conducting spots andstains but contained “very slight” air inclu

29、sions and “nearly flat” waves,had temperature coefficient and capacitance stability characteristics just asgood as that obtained with capacitors made with the best Class C-1 mica.8. Electrical and Physical Properties, and VisualQualities8.1 Natural block mica and mica films shall conform to therequi

30、rements as to electrical and physical properties and visualqualities as prescribed in Table 1. Visual qualities not coveredin this specification are permitted provided mica meets theelectrical and physical requirements.9. Test Methods9.1 The properties enumerated in this specification shall bedeterm

31、ined in accordance with the following:9.2 Grading According to SizeClassification D351.9.3 Electrical ConductivitySee Annex A1.NOTE 4For the purpose of this specification, electrical conductivity inspotted and stained areas of block mica is revealed when visible sparkingor glowing takes place inside

32、 or on the surface of the mica in the vicinityof the test probe and not by actual puncture of the mica by thehigh-potential current. If actual puncture of the test specimen does takeplace this indicates the presence of mechanical faults, such as pinholes,tears, or cracks which extend completely thro

33、ugh the mica. While this testmethod had been found suitable for controlling conductivity in spots andstains and dielectric weakness due to mechanical faults in block mica, aneven greater factor of safety will be realized if this flash test is applieddirectly to capacitor films. In this instance the

34、purpose of the test is todetect dielectric weakness due to any cause.9.4 Q Value or Dissipation Factor Test Method D1082 at1 MHz, or by the rapid, direct-reading method described inAppendix X1.NOTE 5In cases of dispute arising from borderline cases of Q value ordissipation factor and dielectric stre

35、ngth, the test specimens shall be bakedfor a minimum period of2hatatemperature of 121C (250F), and testedimmediately upon cooling to room temperature.9.5 Dielectric StrengthTest Method D149, using theshort-time test with14-in. (6.4-mm) diameter electrodes in oil.9.6 Weight Loss on HeatingPreheat the

36、 test specimens inan oven at 121C (250F) for a minimum time of 2 h and thenweigh. Then heat the specimens in the oven at 600C (1110F)for 5 min and reweigh. Calculate the percentage loss in weightafter heating based on the weight of the specimen at the end ofthe 2-h preheating period.9.7 Thickness Un
