1、Designation: D 6338 09Standard Classification System forHighly Crosslinked Thermoplastic Vulcanizates (HCTPVs)Based on ASTM Standard Test Methods1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6338; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in

2、 the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis classification system is intended as a means for the callout of materials for

3、the fabrication ofparts or end-use items. It is not intended for material selection, which should be performed by thosewith special expertise in the materials field. Material selection should be made after carefulconsideration of: part performance and design; the environment in which the part must f

4、unction; thematerial properties covered and not covered by this classification system; the desired service lifetimeof the part; the fabrication process for the part; and material and fabrication costs.1. Scope*1.1 This classification system covers highly crosslinkedthermoplastic vulcanizates (HCTPVs

5、) for extrusion, moldingand other fabrication methods. HCTPVs are thermoplasticelastomers (TPEs) consisting of two or more polymer systemsat least one of which is rubbery and highly (95 %) crosslinkedand at least one of which is thermoplastic, with each systemhaving its own phase. The thermoplastic

6、phase will tend to becontinuous and the rubbery phase discontinuous. The highlevel of crosslinking and ultrafine particle size (ca 1 mdiameter) of the rubbery phase give rise to properties moreclosely approaching those of conventional thermoset rubber,when compared to the same thermoplastic/rubbery

7、polymercomposition with a lower level (#95 %) of crosslinking. TheHCTPV polymer compositions may contain fillers, reinforcingagents, plasticizers, resins, antidegradants, colorants and otherbeneficial constituents. Recycled HCTPVs are not covered inthis classification system.1.2 Included in this cla

8、ssification system are the propertiesnecessary to identify the respective compositions. For special-ized applications, other requirements may be needed to identifyspecific characteristics.1.3 As given in IEEE/ASTM SI-10, values in SI units are tobe regarded as standard.NOTE 1There is no known ISO eq

9、uivalent to this standard.1.4 This standard is based on testing completed in accor-dance with ASTM standard test methods.1.5 The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to thetest methods portion, Section 12, of this classification system.This standard does not purport to address all of the sa

10、fetyproblems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety andhealth practices and determine the applicability of regulatorylimitations prior to use.2.

Classification4.1 Highly crosslinked thermoplastic vulcanizates are clas-sified into groups according to the rubbery polymer(s) present.These groups are subclassifie

21、d into classes and grades asshown in Table HCTPV.4.1.1 To illustrate this classification system: the designationHCTPV 0121 would indicate HCTPV = highly crosslinkedthermoplastic vulcanizate, 01 (group) = EPDM rubber 95 %crosslinked, 2 (class) = medium hardness, and 1 (grade)meeting the requirements

22、in Table HCTPV.4.1.2 To enable the incorporation of special or futurematerials, the “Other” category (0) for group, class and gradeis given in Table HCTPV. Basic properties can be obtainedfrom Table A.4.2 There is no distinction between reinforced and unrein-forced highly crosslinked thermoplastic v
