Summary of Test Method4.1 A prepared copper strip is totally immersed in a sampleof grease and heated in an oven or liquid bath at a specifiedtemperature for a

11、 definite period of time. Commonly usedconditions are 100 C 6 1 C (212 F 6 2 F) for 24 h 65 min. At the end of this heating period, the strip is removed,washed, and compared with the Copper Strip Corrosion Stan-dard.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method measures the tendency of lubricatinggrea

22、ile polishing. Any convenienttype of holder (see Appendix X1 on Optional Useful Equip-ment in Test Method D130) may be used, provided that thestrip is held tightly and that the surface of the strip beingpolished is supported above the surface of the holder.6.5 Viewing Test TubesFlat glass test tubes

23、 may be used toprotect corroded strips for close inspection or storage. (SeeAppendix X1 on Optional Useful Equipment in Test MethodD130.)6.6 Copper Strip Corrosion Standardconsists of repro-ductions in color of typical strips representing degrees oftarnish and corrosion, the reproductions being enca

24、sed inplastic in the form of a plaque.6.6.1 Keep the plastic-encased printed Copper Strip Corro-sion Standard protected from light to avoid the possibility offading. Inspect for fading by comparing two different plaques,one of which has been carefully protected from light (new).Observe both sets in

25、diffused daylight (or equivalent), firstfrom a point directly above and then from an angle ofapproximately 45. If any evidence of fading is observed,particularly at the left end of the plaque, it is suggested that theone that is the more faded with respect to the other bediscarded.6.6.1.1 Alternativ

26、ely, place a 20 mm (34 in.) opaque strip(masking tape) across the top of the colored portion of theplaque when initially purchased. At intervals, remove theopaque strip and observe. If there is any evidence of fading ofthe exposed portion, it is suggested that the standard bereplaced.6.6.1.2 These p

27、laques are full-color productions of typicalstrips. They have been printed on aluminum sheets by afour-color process and are encased in plastic for protection.Directions for their use are given on the reverse side of eachplaque.6.6.2 If the surface of the plastic cover shows excessivescratching, it

28、is suggested that the plaque be replaced.7. Reagents and Materials7.1 AcetoneAmerican Chemical Society Reagent Gradeacetone is suitable. (WarningExtremely flammable. Harm-ful if inhaled. Vapors may cause flash fires.)7.2 Copper StripsUse strips 12.5 mm 6 2mm(12 in. 6116 in.) wide, 1.5 mm to 3.0 mm (

29、116 in. to18 in.) thick, cut75 mm 6 5mm(3in.614 in.) long from smooth-surfaced,hard-temper, cold-finished copper of 99.9 + % purity; electri-cal bus bar stock is generally suitable. (See Appendix X1 onOptional Useful Equipment in Test Method D130.) The stripsmay be used repeatedly but should be disc

30、arded when thesurfaces become deformed on handling.7.3 Polishing MaterialsSilicon carbide grit paper of vary-ing degrees of fineness, including 65 m (220 grit CAMI-gradeor P220 FEPA-grade) paper or cloth, also a supply of 105 m(120 grit to 150 grit CAMI-grade or P120 to P150 FEPA-grade) silicon carb

31、ide grain and absorbent cotton (cottonwool).7.4 Wash SolventVolatile, sulfur-free hydrocarbon solventmay be used provided that it shows no tarnish at all when testedat 50 C 6 1 C (or 122 F 6 2 F). Knock test-gradeisooctane (Warningsee 8.1.2) or American Chemical Soci-ety Reagent Grade n-heptane (War

32、ningsee 7.1) are suitablesolvents. Because of possible toxic effects, the use of benzeneshould be avoided.8. Preparation of Strip8.1 Mechanical Cleaning of Strips:8.1.1 Surface PreparationRemove all surface blemishesfrom all six sides of the strip with silicon carbide paper of suchdegrees of finenes

33、s as are needed to accomplish the desiredresults efficiently. Finish with 65 m (220 grit CAMI-grade orP220 FEPA-grade) silicon carbide paper or cloth, removing allmarks that may have been made by other grades of paper usedpreviously. Immerse the strip in wash solvent (Warningsee7.1.) from which it c

34、an be withdrawn immediately for finalpolishing or in which it can be stored for future use.8.1.1.1 As a practical manual procedure for surfacepreparation, place a sheet of the paper on a flat surface, moistenit with wash solvent, and rub the strip against the paper with arotary motion, protecting th

35、e strip from contact with the fingersor by wearing impervious gloves (see Note 2). Alternatively,the surface of the strip may be prepared by use of motor-drivenmachines using appropriate grades of dry paper or cloth.NOTE 2Disposable polyethylene is one type of glove that has beenfound to be satisfac

36、tory. However, any type of glove that is impervious tothe reagents and materials used in this test method, while preventingfingers from contacting the strip directly, may also be used.D4048 16128.1.2 Final PolishingRemove strip from the wash solvent.Holding it in the fingers protected with the ashle

37、ss filter paper,polish first the ends and then the sides with the 105 m (120grit to 150 grit CAMI-grade or P120 to P150 FEPA-grade)silicon carbide grains picked up from a clean glass plate witha pad of cotton (cotton wool) moistened with a drop of washsolvent. Wipe vigorously with fresh pads of cott

38、on (cottonwool) and subsequently handle only when wearing imperviousgloves (see Note 2) or with stainless steel forceps; do not touchwith naked fingers. Clamp the strip in a vise, and polish themain surfaces with silicon-carbide grains on absorbent cotton.Rub in the direction of the long axis of the

39、 strip, carrying thestroke beyond the end of the strip before reversing thedirection. Clean all metal dust from the strip before reversingthe direction. Clean all metal dust from the strip by rubbingvigorously with clean pads of absorbent cotton until a fresh padremains unsoiled. When the strip is c

40、lean, immediately im-merse it in the prepared sample. (WarningForceps canscratch copper, affecting the results.)8.1.2.1 It is important to polish the whole surface of the stripuniformly to obtain a uniformly stained strip. If the edges showwear (surface elliptical), they will likely show more corros

41、ionthan the center. The use of a vise will facilitate uniformpolishing.9. Procedure9.1 Place about 60 mL (about 50 g to 70 g, depending on itsspecific gravity) of grease sample into the bottom of a cleantest jar (see 6.1). Bring the depth of the grease to about 80 mm(3.2 in.). Tap the grease down in

42、to the jar carefully. Smooth thetop to give a relatively flat surface. Wipe excess grease off thejar walls.NOTE 3The use of a syringe to prepare a grease sample with minimalentrained air and then to transfer it to the test jar has been found to behelpful in reducing the amount of air trapped in the

43、sample during filling.A syringe with a wide nozzle and a diameter just less than that of the testjar may be most helpful in this regard. This may reduce the potential riskof breaking the somewhat fragile test jar during the action of tapping it toremove air from the grease sample.9.2 To prevent touc

44、hing the strip with fingers, wear imper-vious gloves (see Note 2) or use stainless steel forceps; andinsert cleaned copper strip into the grease until it touches thebottom of the tube and is completely immersed and covered byat least 5 mm (0.2 in.) of grease.9.3 Cover the jar(s) loosely with a beake

45、r, crucible, watchglass, or vented cork (see 6.2).9.4 Place the jar(s) in an oven or liquid bath so that they aresupported approximately vertical. Regulate the oven or liquidbath to maintain a specified temperature for a specified periodof time. Commonly used conditions are 100 C 6 1 C (212 F6 2 F)

46、for 24 h 6 5 min.9.5 At the end of the test period, remove the jar(s) from theoven or liquid bath and allow them to cool to room tempera-ture.9.6 Strip Examination:9.6.1 Wearing impervious gloves (see Note 2), or usingstainless steel forceps, remove the strip from the grease, andcarefully remove exc

47、ess grease clinging to the strip. Take carenot to disturb the tarnish on the strip, and immediately immerseit in wash solvent. Withdraw the strip at once, dry withquantitative filter paper by blotting and not by wiping, andinspect, in diffused daylight (or equivalent), for evidence oftarnishing or c

48、orrosion by comparison with the Copper StripCorrosion Standard. Hold both the test strip and the standardstrip plaque in such a manner that light reflected from them atan angle of approximately 45 will be observed.NOTE 4It has been suggested that a very light grease may be blottedoff the strip with

49、filter paper or a laboratory wiper. Heavier greases mayrequire wiping or removal with a plastic, rubber, or stainless steel spatula.However the grease is removed from the strip, exercise care not to disturbthe tarnish or corrosion on the strip.9.6.2 In handling the test strip during the inspection andcomparison, the danger of marking or staining can be avoidedif it is inserted in a flat tube (see Appendix X1 on OptionalUseful Equipment in Test Method D130), which can bestoppered with absorbent cotton.10.
