17、actice4.1 This practice defines test methods and procedures forevaluating the resistance of geogrids to liquid exposure bymonitoring physical and chemical properties of geogrid cou-pons after immersion in a test liquid. The physical condition ofthe geogrid is monitored as a function of cumulative ex

18、posuretime by means of visual observations, and mechanical andchemical property tests.5. Significance and Use5.1 This practice is intended to provide a list of standardprocedures for test programs investigating the chemical resis-tance of a geogrid to a liquid. This practice should be used inthe abs

19、ence of other specifications required for the particularsituation being addressed.5.2 This practice is intended to provide a basis of standard-ization for those wishing to compare or investigate the chemi-cal resistance of a geogrid. It should be recognized thatchemical resistance is a user judgment

20、 evaluation and that thispractice does not offer procedures for interpreting the resultsobtained from test procedures contained in this practice. As apractice, this does not produce a test result.5.3 This practice is for the chemical resistance assessmentof geogrids and is written in parallel to sim

21、ilar practices forgeomembranes, geotextiles, geonets, and geopipes. Each prac-tice is to be considered individually for the geosynthetic underinvestigation and collectively for all geosynthetics exposed tothe potentially harsh chemical environment under consider-ation.6. Apparatus6.1 Tensile Testing

22、 MachineA constant-rate-of-extension(CRE) or constant-rate-of-traverse (CRT) type with auto-graphic recorder conforming to the requirements of Specifica-tion D 76 shall be used.6.2 Testing ClampsThese clamps shall be sufficientlywide to grip the entire rib specimen and with appropriateclamping power

23、 to prevent slipping or crushing (damage). Thesuggested style of clamp is wedge action type, commonlyavailable from the manufacturer of the tensile testing machine.6.3 All other required equipment is specified in the refer-enced test method standards. Refer to the appropriate standardsfor a descript

24、ion of the apparatus necessary to perform thosetests.7. Hazards7.1 Geogrids may be exposed to liquids that may containhazardous chemicals. Appropriate precautions must be takenwhen handling hazardous waste, chemicals, and the immersionsolutions. Protective equipment suitable for the chemicalsbeing u

25、sed must be worn by all personnel handling or exposedto the chemicals. Particular care should be taken when openingstorage vessels at elevated temperatures due to the increasedvolatility of organics and the increased activity of acids andbases. Care must also be taken to prevent the spilling ofhazar

26、dous materials and provisions must be made to clean upany accidental spills that do occur.7.2 Before carrying out any test, safety precautions anddisposal procedures for hazardous waste, chemicals or immer-sion liquids, and any contaminated geogrid materials should beidentified and implemented to pr

27、ovide full protection to allpersonnel and to comply with applicable disposal regulations.8. Sample Preparation8.1 Sample product as received.9. Sampling9.1 Geogrid:9.1.1 Determine the number and dimensions of the testspecimens according to the requirements of property tests,listed in Section 14, to

29、pecimens for each chosen property testand test interval. Discard any coupons that contain scratches orother imperfections that might affect the test results, and cutreplacement coupons.9.1.4 Mix the selected coupons in a random fashion andre-select coupons for the immersion and baseline testing.9.1.

Record the weightof the coupon to an accuracy of at least 0.1 % of the couponsweight.D 6213 97 (2003)211.1.3 Remove the required and recommended number ofcoupons for testing at the pr

34、escribed test period. Elevatedtemperature coupons should be allowed to cool to roomtemperature in a sample of the immersion fluid. Rinse eachcoupon with de-ionized water and remove any visible liquidresidue on the coupon surface by blotting lightly with water-absorbent, lint free paper towels. Coupo

35、ns should be stored ina sealed container with minimum void volume so as tominimize moisture or volatile(s) loss, or both.NOTE 1The prescribed test period is to be determined by the partiesinvolved.NOTE 2Coupons sealed in a zip-lock polyethylene bags and thenplaced within a container to shield agains

All tests should be completed on the exposedspecimens after each test period. O
