33、 ring or spacers. Do notallow the two end plugs to bottom on the mold shell. Apply aninitial load to the mold of 3.45 MPa 500 psi 6 10 % and holdfor 1 to 2 min. Increase the loading smoothly to the finalpreforming pressure in 3 to 5 min. Use 20.7 MPa 3000 psi forcompounds containing up to 4 % by wei

34、ght filler. Use 34.5MPa 5000 psi for compounds containing 5 to 25 % by weightor less filler and 68.9 MPa 10 000 psi for composite com-pounds containing more than 26 % filler. Hold under maximumpressure for 2 to 5 min. Release the pressure gradually withoutapparent movement of the press platens. Then

35、 open the press,remove the top pusher from the mold, and force the preformvertically out of the mold, using a continuous, smooth move-ment.9.2.4 Place the preform in a sintering oven and sinter inaccordance with the procedures in Table 4.

Avoid contaminating smoking materialswith PTFE compounds.10. Conditioning Test Specimens10.1 For density and tensile properties the test specimensshall be

44、conditioned in accordance with Procedure A ofPractice D 618 for a period of at least 4 h prior to test.11. Test Conditions11.1 Tests shall be conducted at 23 6 2C 73.4 6 4F.Since the resin does not absorb water, the maintenance ofconstant humidity during testing is not required.12. Test Methods12.1

45、Filler Content:12.1.1 ScopeThis burn-out procedure for filler contentmay be used for determining the amount of a filler in acompound. The procedure shall be carried out in an inertatmosphere, especially when fillers that react with PTFE andoxygen in the air are present. This reaction produces volati

46、leproducts that cause incorrect results.12.1.2 The equipment used is a tube furnace suitable for useat 680 6 25C 1250 6 50F. The furnace should have acombustion tube made of ceramic or Vycor glass. Two nickelor platinum combustion boats should be used to enable the testto run in duplicate. A system

47、is needed to supply a constantpurge of dry nitrogen through the furnace at a rate of 10 to 50mL/min.12.1.3 Scrub the pyrolysis gases with a base, such as a dilutesolution of sodium hydroxide, and vent to the outside atmo-sphere.NOTE 4Take care to avoid leakage of fumes into the work area. Takeprecau

48、tions to avoid the inhalation of, or exposure to gases from thepyrolysis since these gases may be hazardous.12.1.4 Add approximately2gofthesample to each of thecombustion boats, using standard quantitative laboratoryweighing practices. Place boats and samples into the furnace.Heat and hold at 680 6

49、25C 1250 6 50F until completedegradation of the PTFE has occurred. One hour is sufficienttime. Maintain an inert atmosphere during the heating, pyroly-sis, and cooling steps. Calculate the percentage of filler as thenet weight of the residue multiplied by 100, divided by the netweight of the original sample.12.1.5 Calculate the filler content by volume as follows:E 5FU 1 F3 100 (1)where:F = grams per litre of the filler.U = grams per litre of the unfilled PTFE.E = equivalent filler content (% b
