17、 decrease under constant strain amplitude andfrequency conditions. A timed test may also be performed inwhich a sinusoidal strain is applied for a given time periodunder constant strain amplitude, frequency, and temperatureconditions.4.2.1 For a frequency sweep test, the instrument is typicallyprogr

18、ammed to increase the frequency with each subsequentstep change. For a strain sweep test, the instrument is usuallyprogrammed to increase the strain amplitude with each subse-quent step change. This is done to minimize the influence ofprior test conditions on subsequent test steps. For temperaturesw

19、eeps, the temperature may be programmed either to increaseor decrease with each subsequent step change, depending onthe effects to be studied. The results from increasing frequency,strain amplitude, or temperature may not be the same as resultsfrom decreasing these test parameters.4.3 Rheological pr

These propertiescan be measured as combinations of elastic torque S, viscoustorque S”, storage shear modulus G, loss shear modulus G”,tan d, complex dynamic viscosity h*, and real dynamicviscosity h.4.4 This standard

22、t, molecular weight distribution, and longchain branching for raw elastomers and to relate to differencesin flowability, shear thinning, and die swell for mixed batches.4.5.2 Part B is a rapid two-point frequency sweep performedat a moderate strain of 100 % (or higher) to relate to geldifferences wi

23、th raw elastomers and to relate to differences inhigher shear rate viscosity and die swell for mixed batches. Thehigher applied strain is commonly needed to help break up gelstructure in some raw elastomers and break up filler aggregatenetworks for mixed batches.Although 100 % strain is the morecomm

24、on test condition, significantly higher test sensitivity ispossible by performing this frequency sweep at 200 % strain orhigher.4.5.3 Part C is a linear ramped temperature rise fromprocessing temperature (typically 100C) to cure temperature(usually 140, 160, or 180C) in a predetermined time period.T

25、his ramped temperature cure is performed to enhance statis-tical test sensitivity to real differences in scorch times provid-ing better scorch control than traditional isothermal cure tests(Test Method D 5289), and to provide a controlled transitionfrom Part A or Part B tests, or both, in this metho

These viscoelastic properties may relate to factoryprocessing behavior.5.2 This test method may be used for quality control inrubber manufa

27、cturing processes and for research and develop-ment testing of raw rubber and rubber compounds. This testmethod may also be used for evaluating compound differencesresulting from the use of different compounding materials.6.
