32、ningAt normal processing temperatures,PTFE liberates harmful vapors. Provide adequate ventilation inareas where PTFE compounds are exposed to elevated tem-peratures. Avoid contaminating smoking materials with PTFEcompounds.9.2 Test Preforms:9.2.1 Test Billet9.2.1.1 Prior to molding, screen the mater

33、ial through a2.0-mm hand sieve, if necessary.9.2.1.2 Preform solid test billets in a mold (see Fig. 1)having a cross-sectional area not greater than 25.8 cm2# (4in.2) and of sufficient height to contain the sample. End plugclearance shall be sufficient to ensure escape of entrapped airduring pressin

34、g. A mold length of 305 to 380 mm (15 to 12 in.)produces a billet approximately 50 to 75 mm (2 to 3 in.) long.The billet length shall not exceed 75 mm (3 in.).9.2.1.3 Assemble the mold.Add the resin to the mold. Insertthe top plug and apply hand pressure, making certain that thepusher is centered in

35、 the mold. Place the mold in a hydraulicpress and remove the support ring or spacers. Increase theloading smoothly to the final preforming pressure in 3 to 5 min.Use 20.7 MPa (3000 psi) for compounds containing up to 4 %by weight filler. Use 34.5 MPa (5000 psi) for compoundscontaining 5 to 25 % by w

36、eight and 68.9 MPa (10 000 psi) forcompounds containing 26 % or more filler. Hold under maxi-mum pressure for 2 to 5 min. Open the press, remove the toppusher from the mold, and force the preform vertically out ofthe mold, using a continuous, smooth movement.9.2.1.4 Place the preform in a sintering

37、oven and sinter inaccordance with the procedure in Table 4.9.2.1.5 Sectioning Test Billet:(1) Divide the test billet by removing a 1.6 mm (116 in.)minimum from one end of the test billet prior to preparation ofthe test specimens.(2) Prepare five test specimens, 1 6 0.25 mm (0.040 60.010 in.) in thic

38、kness for the determination of tensile proper-ties and cut a piece of suitable thickness for specific gravitymeasurements. This piece will be approximately cubical inshape, weighing at least 10 g. All surfaces must be smooth.Take care to avoid wedge-shape cuts.9.2.2 Specific Gravity (alternative mol

End plug clearancesshall be sufficient to ensure es

40、cape of air during pressing.Molding pressures shall be followed as listed in 9.2.1.3 andsintered in accordance with Table 3.9.2.3 Alternate mold size and molding pressure as agreed toby customer and supplier. Sinter in accordance with Table 3.10. Test Conditions10.1 Tests shall be conducted at 23 6

41、2C (73.4 6 4F).Since the resin does not absorb water, the maintenance ofconstant humidity during testing is not required.11.

43、for determining the amount of a filler in acompound. The entire procedure shall be carried out in an inertatmosphere. Reaction with oxygen produces volatile productsthat will cause incorrect results. This procedure is not suitablefor use with fillers that are not thermally stable at the maximumtempe
