United States14.3 Test methods included in this standard are indicated inTable 1 by showing the appl

16、icable section numbers after thesuffix letter.4.4 In cases involving referee decisions, SI units shall beused.5. Significance and Use5.1 The test procedures provide a standard method ofobtaining data for research and development, quality control,acceptance and rejection under specifications, and spe

17、cialpurposes.5.2 The data obtained by these test methods are applicableto the material under conditions of the particular test and arenot necessarily the same as obtained in other environments oruse conditions.6. Sampling6.1 When possible, use the completed manufactured prod-uct for the tests specif

18、ied. Randomly select representativesamples of the lot being examined, as required.6.2 Extruded or molded shapes or sizes too small for cuttingstandard test specimens are difficult to classify or test by thesetest methods and will usually require special testing proceduresor the use of standard test

19、sheets.6.3 When it is necessary or advisable to obtain test speci-mens from the article, as in those cases where the entire sampleis not required or adaptable for testing, specify the method ofcutting and the exact position from which specimens are to betaken. The apparent density and the state of c

20、rosslinking mayvary in different parts of the finished product, especially if thearticle is of complicated shape or of varying thickness, andthese factors affect the physical properties of the specimens.Also, the apparent density is affected by the number of cutsurfaces as opposed to the number of s

21、kin-covered surfaces onthe test specimen.6.4 When the finished product does not lend itself to testingor to the taking of test specimens because of complicatedshape, small size, metal or fabric inserts, solid covers, adhesionto metal, or other reasons, prepare standard test sheets. Whendifferences d

22、ue to the difficulty in obtaining suitable testspecimens from the finished part arise, the manufacturer andpurchaser may agree on acceptable deviations. This can bedone by comparing the results of standard test specimens andthose obtained on actual parts.6.5 If the material to be tested is anisotrop

23、ic, prepare the testspecimens so as to measure the property in the direction ofinterest in the application.7. Conditioning7.1 Conduct tests under known conditions of temperatureand humidity or as specified in the individual test procedure. Incase of dispute, conduct the test at a temperature of 23 6

24、 2C(73.4 6 3.6F) and in an atmosphere of 50 6 10 % relativehumidity. The product shall be conditioned, undeflected, andundistorted, at the temperature and humidity of test for at least24 h before being tested.7.2 It is recommended, for referee purposes, that all testsshall be performed 96 h or more

25、after the foam has beenmanufactured.8. Measurement of Test Specimens8.1 Measure dimensions up to and including 25.4 mm (1 in.)using a dial-type gauge with a minimum foot area of 645.1mm2(1 in.2). Pressure on the foot shall be held to 190 6 50 Pa(0.028 6 0.007 psi).NOTE 2Where foam is appreciably com

26、pressed by this test method,foot area and loading shall be as agreed upon between the purchaser andthe supplier.NOTE 3Thickness of materials having irregular surface characteristicsshall be measured as agreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier.8.2 Dimensions over 25.4 mm (1 in.) may be meas

27、ured witha dial gauge, scale, or tape. Take care not to distort the testspecimen.8.3 The scale, tape, or gauge shall be graduated to permitmeasurements within 61 % of the dimension to be measured.8.4 Results reported shall be the average of a minimum ofthree equally spaced measurements of length and

28、 width and forthickness shall be the average of the center and four equallyspaced measurements around the perimeter of the specimens.TABLE 1 Suffix Letter DesignationsNOTE 1These suffix letters have been assigned by SubcommitteeD11.33 and are consistent with those in Specifications D1056 and D1667.S

32、st method covers the deflection of the foamspecimen under a compressive force and under specifiedconditions of time and temperature, then noting the effect onthe thickness of the specimen after releasing the compressiveforce.10. Apparatus10.1 Compression Device, consisting of two or more flatsteel o

33、r aluminum plates that are of sufficient thickness toprevent deflection of the plates under load.

34、ens shall have parallel top and bottomsurfaces and essentially perpendicular sides.11.2 Specimens shall be 50.8 by 50.8 by 25.4 mm (2 by 2 by1 in.) unless otherwise specified. Specimens less than 25.4 mmin thickness shall be plied up, without the use of an adhesive,to produce a total thickness of 25

35、.4 mm.NOTE 4To obtain accurate data when testing foams with large cells orirregular surfaces, or both, larger samples approximately 101.6 by 101.6by 25.4 mm (4 by 4 by 1 in.) are recommended.12. Number of Specimens12.1 Test three specimens for each sample. The valuesreported shall be the mean of tho
