Classification4.1 _ materials are classified into groups according totheir compositio

15、n. These groups are subdivided into classesand grades as shown in the Basic Property Table (Table _).Anexample of a basic property table can be found in SpecificationD 4066. The property table should contain a footnote referringto Section _ for reference to specimen source and prepara-tion.NOTE 3An

16、example of this classification system is given as follows:The designation _ indicates the following:_ = _ as found in Terminology D 1600,_ = _ (group),_ = _ (class), and_ = requirements given Table _ (grade).4.1.1 Reinforced, filled, and lubricated versions of _materials that are found in Table _ ar

17、e classified accordingto the reinforcement used and the nominal level, by weightpercent, of the reinforcement. The grade is identified by asingle letter that indicates the filler or reinforcement used andtwo digits, in multiples of 5, that indicate the nominal quantityin percent by weight. Thus, a g

18、rade containing 35 % glassreinforcement would be indicated by _ G35. This desig-nation indicates_ = _ as found in Terminology D 1600,_ = _ (group),_ = _ (class), and_ = 35 % glass reinforcement and requirements given Table _ (grade).The reinforcement letter designations and associated tolerance leve

22、. The types and percentages of reinforcements and additivesshould be shown on the suppliers technical data sheet unless they areproprietary in nature. If necessary, additional callout of these reinforce-ments and additives can be accomplished by use of the suffix part of thesystem (see Section 5).4.

23、1.2 To facilitate incorporation of future or special materi-als the “other” category for group (00), class (0), and grade (0)is shown in Table _.4.2 Reinforced, filled, and lubricated versions of _ mate-rials that are not in Table _ are classified in accordance withTables _ and A or B. Table _ is us

24、ed to specify the Group orthe group and class of _ and Table A or B is used to specifythe property requirements.4.2.1 Reinforced, filled, and lubricated variations of thebasic materials are identified by a single letter from Table 1 thatindicates the filler and/or reinforcement used and two digitsth

25、at indicate the nominal quantity in percent by weight. Asecond letter, from Table 1a, when desired, is used to indicatethe form or structure of the reinforcement and/or filler, but isnot used for functional mixtures. Thus, a letter designation Gfor glass, E for beads or spheres or balls, and 33 for

26、percent byweight, GE33, specifies a reinforced or filled material with 33percent by weight in the form of glass beads, spheres, or balls.The reinforcement letter designations and associated tolerancelevels are shown in the previous table. Form and structure letterdesignations are shown in the follow

The designation will consist of the letter “A” or “B” andthe five digits comprising the cell numbers for the propertyrequirements in the or

29、der as they appear in Tables A or B.4.2.2.1 Although the values listed are necessary to includethe range of properties available in existing materials, usersshould not infer that every possible combination of theproperties exists or can be obtained.4.2.3 When the grade of the basic material is not k

30、nown, oris not important, the use of the “0” grade classification shall beused for the reinforced materials in this system.D5740032NOTE 5An example of this classification for a reinforced _ materialis given as follows. The designation _ would indicate the followingmaterial requirements._ = _ from Ta

31、ble _,_ = _,_ = _,_ = _,_ = _,_ = _, and_ = _.If no properties are specified, the designation would be _.5. Suffixes5.1 When additional requirements are needed that are notcovered by the basic requirements or cell-table requirements,they shall be indicated through the use of suffixes.5.2 A list of s

32、uffixes can be found in Classification SystemD 4000 (Table 3) and may be used for additional requirementsas appropriate. Additional suffixes will be added to thatstandard as test methods and requirements are developed andrequested.6. General Requirements6.1 Basic requirements from the property table

33、s or celltables are always in effect unless superseded by specific suffixrequirements, which always take precedence.6.2 The plastics composition shall be uniform and shallconform to the requirements specified herein.7. Detail Requirements7.1 The materials shall conform to the requirements inTables _

34、, _, _, and suffix requirements as they apply.7.2 For purposes of determining conformance, all specifiedlimits for a specification (line callout) based on this classifica-tion system are absolute limits, as defined in Practice E 29.7.2.1 With the absolute method, an observed value or acalculated val

35、ue is not rounded, but is to be compared directlywith the limiting value. Conformance or nonconformance isbased on this comparison.8. Sampling8.1 Sampling shall be statistically adequate to satisfy therequirements of 12.4.8.2 A batch or lot shall be constituted as a unit of manufac-ture as prepared

36、for shipment and may consist of a blend of twoor more “production runs.”9.
