Summary of Test Methods4.1 Prepreg is sampled and specimens of a specific area areweighed and the matrix removed by appropriate procedure. ForProcedure A, the specimen is subjected to suitable solvent thataffects the matrix (but

23、not the reinforcement) until the matrix isdissolved and removed. The remaining reinforcement is thendried and weighed. For Procedure B, the specimen is placed ina muffle furnace for a specific time and at a specific tempera-ture (at which the reinforcement remains essentially un-changed) until the m

24、atrix can be entirely removed as ashresidue. The remaining reinforcement is weighed. For eitherprocedure the change in mass is expressed, both matrix contentand fiber content, as a percentage of the specimen initial mass.4.2 When matrix solids content is requested, adjacentsamples are tested for vol

25、atiles content according to TestMethod D3530. The average mass loss due to volatiles issubtracted from the average resin content result and the resultexpressed as a percentage of initial specimen mass as matrixsolids content. The matrix solids content is applicable mainlyto thermosetting matrices.5.

26、 Significance and Use5.1 This test method can be used to obtain the fiber content,fiber areal weight, matrix content or matrix solids content.Knowledge of these results is useful in specifying materialsystems and in developing optimum manufacturing processes.Where volatiles content is consistent and

27、 not critical to process,matrix content shall be used.5.2 This test method is limited to reinforcement constituentsthat do not change mass upon exposure to the matrix removalprocedure and limited to matrix constituents that are fullyremoved by the matrix removal procedure. In the event ofexperiencin

28、g either limitation, an agreement should be reachedwith the end-user as to how to proceed.6. Interferences6.1 Procedure A:6.1.1 Extent of Cure in Thermosetting SystemsIn Proce-dure A, the efficiency of matrix dissolution for thermosettingmatrix materials is directly related to the extent of cure of

29、theresin system. A resin that has started to cross link (such asB-staged resins) will be increasingly more difficult to extract asthe cure advances. If ProcedureAis ineffective in removing thematrix, and Procedure B is inappropriate for the fiber, thenanother test method, such as one of the methods

30、ofTest MethodD3171, should be consulted.6.1.2 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 perf

31、orm well on all material systems within thescope of this test method.6.1.3 Ability of Solvent to Reach MatrixSolvents are moreefficient if the material is spread as a film, rather than a solidmass. It is recommended that the sample be consolidated aslittle as possible before introduction into the so

32、lvent. A solventthat is satisfactory for a given form may not be adequate withthe same material of a different form.6.1.4 Solvent StrengthSolvent strength, or the ability torapidly dissolve the matrix, may be enhanced by increasing theamount of solvent, increasing agitation, increasing tempera-ture,

33、 or by placing the sample under vacuum. These are offeredas physical alternatives to use of more hazardous solvents, orcombined solvent systems.6.2 Procedure B:6.2.1 Applicability of Ignition Loss ApproachIn Proce-dure B a reinforced resin matrix composite specimen will beexposed to a temperature in

34、 excess of 500C in an airenvironment for up to 6 h. This test method does not providea measure of resin content for samples containing reinforcingmaterials that lose weight under the conditions of the test orcontain resins or fillers that do not decompose to volatilematerials released by ignition.6.

35、2.2 Length of TestThe sample type and configurationwill determine the length of test exposure. The products ofmatrix combustion will disappear more readily in configura-tions having a large surface area of resin matrix exposure to theoxidizing atmosphere.D3529M 1026.2.3 Pre-IgnitionProvision is made

36、 in this standard forpre-ignition of the specimen and crucible using a Bunsenflame. This step may be helpful to flash-off volatiles andinitiation of the burning process, but care should be taken toprevent mechanical loss of sample residue.6.2.4 Residual Resin Combustion ProductsFiber residueshould b

37、e carefully examined for the presence of adherent resincombustion product before determining the final fiber mass(Wf). If significant amounts of resin product remain on fiber(“producing a false indication of fiber content”) surfaces, thetest method should be repeated. Care should be taken duringthis

38、 process to assure that no physical loss in fiber contentoccurs.7. Apparatus7.1 Cutting (Grooved) Template or DieThe specimen areashall be produced with either a cutting templates or a cuttingdie.
