Summ

8、ary of Test Method4.1 The nominal light penetration of TRMs is determined byobserving the foot-candles on the light meter through adetermined open area versus the amount of foot-candles on thelight meter once the TRM is placed over the determined openarea.5. Significance and Use5.1 Light penetration

9、 may be used to control the quality ofmany TRMs. Light penetration is not indicative of fieldperformance and therefore is not recommended for specifica-tions.5.2 The light penetration of TRMs may vary considerablydepending on the composite materials used in the matrix of themat or due to inconsisten

10、cy within a given mat. To minimizevariation, specific sample size and procedures are indicated inthis test method to help ensure comparable results.5.3 This test method may be used to determine the effect ofdifferent composite materials and make-up of TRMs.5.4 This test method may be used for accept

11、ance testing ofcommercial shipments of TRMs, but caution is advised sinceinformation on between laboratory precision is incomplete.Comparative tests as directed in 5.4.1 may be advisable.5.4.1 In case of a dispute arising from differences inreported test results when using this test method for accep

12、tancetesting of commercial shipments, the purchaser and the sup-plier should conduct comparative tests to determine if there isa statistical bias between their laboratories. Competent statis-tical assistance is recommended for the investigation of bias.As a minimum, the two parties should take a gro

17、.NOTE 1The user should be aware that the makeup and possiblemovement of the composite materials, and the like, may affect the TRMsfollowing the time when they are rolled up on rolls shipped and stored.6. Apparatus6.1 Light Penetration BoxSee Fig. 1 (length view), andsee Fig. 2 (width view).NOTE 2The

18、 light penetration box shown in Fig. 1 is built from34 in.wood.6.2 Adjustable Rod with Light BulbSee Fig. 3.6.3 Light MeterThe light meter must measure in foot-candles and be capable of measuring determined open areafoot-candle reading as well as determined area with denseTRM material in place. A me

19、ter with a digital readout such asExtech Instruments Model 407026 Heavy Duty Light Meter isrecommended.6.4 Cutting DiesThe cutting dies must be capable ofcutting specimen dimensions at least 200 mm (8 in.) by at least250 mm (10 in.).NOTE 3Due to possible loss of loose internal components duringcutti

20、ng and handling of many TRMs, care should be exercised to minimizethese effects.7. Sampling7.1 Sample by LotIn the absence of other guidelines,divide the product into lots and sample as specified in PracticeD4354.7.2 Laboratory SampleFor the laboratory sample, take afull width sample of sufficient l

21、ength along the selvage or edgeof roll so that the requirements of 7.3 through 7.4.2 can be met.Exclude the inner and outer wraps of the roll or any materialcontaining folds, crushed areas or other distortions not repre-sentative of the sampled lot.7.3 Test SpecimensRemove the test specimens from th

22、elaboratory sample in a randomly distributed pattern across thewidth with no specimen taken nearer than 100 mm (4 in.) fromthe selvage or roll edge, unless otherwise specified. Cut five250 by 200 mm (10 by 8 in.) test specimens from the sample.Handle the specimens in a manner to avoid the loss of lo

23、osefiller and weaving components.7.4 Number of SpecimensUnless otherwise agreed upon,as when provided in an applicable material specification, takea number of test specimens per laboratory sample such that theuser may expect a 95 % probability level that the test result isnot more than 5 % of the av

24、erage above or below the trueaverage of the sample. Determine the number of specimens persample as follows:7.4.1 Reliable Estimate of vWhen there is a reliableestimate of v based upon extensive past records for similarmaterials tested in the users laboratory as directed in theFIG. 1 Light Penetratio

25、n BoxD6567 00 (2014)2method, calculate the required number of specimens for thelaboratory sample using Eq 1, as follows:n 5 tv/A!2(1)where:n = number of test specimens (rounded upward to a wholenumber),v = reliable estimate of the coefficient of variation of theindividual observations on similar mat

26、erials in theusers laboratory under conditions of single-operatorposition, %,t = the value of Students t for one sided limits, a 95 %probability level, and the degrees of freedom associatedwith the estimate of v, andA = 5.0 % of the average, the value of the allowablevariation.7.4.2 No Reliable Esti

27、mate of vWhen there is no reliableestimate of v for the users laboratory, Eq 1 should not be useddirectly. Instead, specify the fixed number (5) specimens. Thenumber of specimens is calculated using v = 9.5 % of theaverage. These values for v are somewhat larger than usuallyfound in practice. When a

28、 reliable estimate of v for the userslaboratory becomes available, Eq 1 will usually require fewerthan the fixed number of specimens.8. Conditioning8.1 Bring the specimens to moisture and temperature equi-librium in the atmosphere for testing TRMs, that is a tempera-ture of 21 6 2C (70 6 4F) and rel

29、ative humidity of 60 610 %.9. Procedure9.1 Test the conditioned specimens in the standard atmo-spheric condition as set forth in 8.1.9.2 Care should be taken in handling of the test specimensto avoid altering the natural finished state of the material.9.3 Close the top of box, cover the slot where t

30、he sample isplaced, and turn on the light source. Place the light meter on theshelf in front of the opening at the end of the box.9.4 Slide the adjustable rod with bulb inside the box toobtain maximum brightness (highest meter reading), recordreading.9.5 Open top of box and insert the specimen into

31、the slottedarea, being sure to leave no area open to avoid false readings.NOTE 4A stiff opaque border may be use to ensure proper holding ofthe specimen in place if material is flexible. When a border is used, themeter reading taken before placement of the specimen, must include theopen border place

32、d in the slot.9.6 After the top has been closed and the slot openingcovered, obtain meter reading. Ensure meter is set on theappropriate scale to obtain best reading. Record the results.9.7 Repeat the procedure for each of the remaining speci-mens.10. Calculation10.1 Calculate the percent of light p
