United States14. Summary of Test Method4.1 A rubber test specimen is contained in a

16、 die cavity that is closed and maintained at an elevated temperature. The cavity isformed by two dies, one of which is oscillated through a rotary amplitude. This action produces a sinusoidal torsional strain in thetest specimen, resulting in a sinusoidal torque, which measures a viscoelastic qualit

17、y of the test specimen. The test specimen canbe either a raw natural or synthetic rubber or an uncured rubber compound.4.2 These viscoelastic measurements can be made based on (1) a frequency sweep, in which the frequency is programmed tochange in steps under constant strain amplitude and temperatur

18、e conditions, (2) a strain sweep, in which the strain amplitude isprogrammed to change in steps under constant frequency and temperature conditions, or (3) a temperature sweep, in which thetemperature is programmed to either increase or decrease under constant strain amplitude and frequency conditio

19、ns. A timed testmay also be performed in which a sinusoidal strain is applied for a given time period under constant strain amplitude, frequency,and temperature conditions.4.2.1 For a frequency sweep test, the instrument is typically programmed to increase the frequency with each subsequent stepchan

20、ge. For a strain sweep test, the instrument is usually programmed to increase the strain amplitude with each subsequent stepchange. This is done to minimize the influence of prior test conditions on subsequent test steps. For temperature sweeps, thetemperature may be programmed either to increase or

21、 decrease with each subsequent step change, depending on the effects to bestudied. The results from increasing frequency, strain amplitude, or temperature may not be the same as results from decreasingthese test parameters.4.3 Rheological properties are measured for each set of frequency, strain, an

22、d temperature conditions. These properties can bemeasured as combinations of elastic torque S, viscous torque S”, storage shear modulus G, loss shear modulus G”, tan , complexdynamic viscosity *, and real dynamic viscosity .4.4 This standard is organized in three different parts (A, B, and C), which

23、 can be run in the following combinations:ABA, BA, B, CA, CB, CC4.5 These three parts are described below:4.5.1 PartAis a rapid three-point frequency sweep performed at a low strain of 7 % to relate to differences in average molecularweight, molecular weight distribution, and long chain branching fo

24、r raw elastomers and to relate to differences in flowability, shearthinning, and die swell for mixed batches.4.5.2 Part B is a rapid two-point frequency sweep performed at a moderate strain of 100 % (or higher) to relate to gel differenceswith raw elastomers and to relate to differences in higher sh

25、ear rate viscosity and die swell for mixed batches. The higher appliedstrain is commonly needed to help break up gel structure in some raw elastomers and break up filler aggregate networks for mixedbatches. Although 100 % strain is the more common test condition, significantly higher test sensitivit

26、y is possible by performingthis frequency sweep at 200 % strain or higher.4.5.3 Part C is a linear ramped temperature rise from processing temperature (typically 100C) to cure temperature (usually 140,160, or 180C) in a predetermined time period. This ramped temperature cure is performed to enhance

27、statistical test sensitivityto real differences in scorch times providing better scorch control than traditional isothermal cure tests (Test Method D5289), andto provide a controlled transition from Part A or Part B tests, or both, in this method to a cure test.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test m

28、ethod is used to measure viscoelastic properties of raw rubber as well as unvulcanized rubber compounds. Theseviscoelastic properties may relate to factory processing behavior.5.2 This test method may be used for quality control in rubber manufacturing processes and for research and developmenttesti

29、ng of raw rubber and rubber compounds. This test method may also be used for evaluating compound differences resultingfrom the use of different compounding materials.6.
