1、Designation: D 5427 09Standard Practice forAccelerated Aging of Inflatable Restraint Fabrics1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5427; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A n

2、umber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice describes the procedures for the acceler-ated aging of inflatable restraint fabrics when required as apreparatory step for

3、 other test methods.1.1.1 In Section 7, this practice lists four methods forconducting accelerated aging that are of concern to the designand manufacture of inflatable restraints. They are as follows:Description SectionCycle aging (Option “A” or “B”) 8.4Heat aging (Option “A” or “B”) 8.6Humidity agi

4、ng (Option “A” or “B”) 8.7Ozone aging 8.81.2 This practice may be used in conjunction with otherASTM test methods when subsequent tests of physical prop-erties are required of aged fabric specimens.1.3 Procedures and apparatus other than those stated in thispractice may be used by agreement between

5、the purchaser andthe supplier with the specific deviations from the standardpractice acknowledged in the report.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each systemmust

6、 be used independently of the other.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.

Summary of Practice4.1 After conditioning in the standard atmosphere for test-ing textiles, test specimens are subjected to accelerated agingfor heat, humidity, ozone, or cycling.4.2 Aged specim

10、ens are then reconditioned in the standardatmosphere for testing textiles for subsequent testing of thephysical properties of inflatable restraint fabrics.5. Significance and Use5.1 For inflatable restraints, practices for conducting accel-erated aging are designed to determine the aggravated effect

11、son a fabric from exposures to heat, humidity, or ozone, or acombination thereof. These environmental conditions may alsobe cycled in combination. The four accelerated aging proce-dures of concern to the design and manufacture of inflatablerestraints are referred to as cycle aging, heat aging, humid

12、ityaging, and ozone aging.5.2 The environmental conditions described in this practiceare designed to allow restraints so that reliable comparisonsmay be made between different fabrics and different laborato-ries.5.3 In order to achieve precise and reliable physical prop-erty comparisons of different

13、 fabrics, it is necessary to controlaccurately the humidity, temperature, ozone, and cycling con-ditions to which the fabric is subjected.5.4 Fabric specimens are configured in accordance with therequirements of test methods to be conducted on the specimenssubsequent to accelerated aging.1This pract
