Summary of Test Method4.1 A rubber tes

16、t specimen is contained in a die cavity that is closed and maintained at an elevated cure temperature. The cavityis formed by two dies, one of which is oscillated through a rotary amplitude. This action produces a sinusoidal torsional strain inthe test specimen resulting in a sinusoidal torque, whic

17、h measures the viscoelastic changes of the test specimen as it cures. Thetest specimen must be a unvulcanized rubber compound containing curatives. A controlled limited strain is applied during cure toprevent effecting the aftercure properties.4.2 After a predetermined cure time, the temperature is

18、reduced and dynamic property measurements can be based on a strainsweep in which the strain amplitude is programmed to change in steps under constant frequency and temperature, a frequencysweep in which the frequency is programmed to change in steps under constant strain amplitude and temperature, o

19、r, a temperaturesweep in which the temperature is programmed to decrease under constant strain amplitude and frequency conditions.4.3 For an after-cure strain sweep, the instrument is typically programmed to increase the strain with each subsequent stepchange. This is done to minimize the influence

20、of prior test conditions on subsequent test steps. Typically two repeat strain sweepsmay be programmed consecutively to quantify the Payne Effect,3 which is the reduction in dynamic storage modulus from strainsoftening of the rubber vulcanizate.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is used to

21、determine the vulcanization characteristics of (vulcanizable) rubber compounds under selectedtest conditions of strain and frequency which do not significantly affect the cured dynamic properties. In the same test, this testmethod also will measure the dynamic properties of the vulcanizate at temper

22、atures significantly below the cure temperature. Theselower temperature measurements are necessary in order to more effectively relate to rubber product service conditions.5.2 This test method may be used for quality control in rubber manufacturing processes and for research and developmenttesting o

23、f rubber compounds containing curatives. This test method also may be used for evaluating cure and dynamic propertydifferences resulting from the use of different compounding ingredients.5.3 For additional information regarding the significance of dynamic testing of vulcanized rubber, the reader may

25、y.6.2 Sealed Die CavityThe sealed die cavity is formed by two conical surface dies. In the measuring position, the two dies arefixed a specified distance apart so that the cavity is closed and sealed (see Fig. 1).6.3 Die GapFor the sealed cavity, no gap should exist at the edges of the dies.

35、ty. Once the initial heatingup time has been completed, die temperature shall not vary by more than 60.3C for the remainder of a cure test at a settemperature. When the set temperature is changed in a programmed temperature sweep or strain sweep, dynamic propertymeasurements should not be recorded u
