Test Methods14.1 Responsibility for InspectionUnless otherwise spe

33、ci-fied in the contract or order, the manufacturer is responsible forthe performance of all inspection requirements as specifiedherein.14.2 Responsibility for ComplianceAll items must meetall requirements of Sections 716. The inspections set forth inthis specification shall become part of the manufa

34、cturersoverall inspection system or quality program for the contract ororder. The absence of any inspection requirements in thespecification shall not relieve the manufacturer of the respon-sibility of ensuring that all products or supplies submitted foracceptance comply with all the requirements of

35、 the contract ororder. Sampling in quality conformance does not authorizesubmission of known defective material, either indicated oractual, nor does it commit the buyer to acceptance of defectivematerial.14.3 Classification of Inspections:14.3.1 First Article of ManufactureWhen a product is firstman

36、ufactured in a plant, it shall be tested and inspected todetermine compliance with all examinations and tests of thisspecification. First article of manufacture examinations needonly be repeated when there is a change in materials, processes,or plant of manufacture. Specimens shall consist of at lea

37、st fivepads of flags representing a standard production lot.14.3.2 Quality Conformance InspectionsQuality confor-mance inspections shall consist of the following: adhesion,dispensing force, and thickness.14.4 AdhesionThe adhesion of the flag shall be measuredto a standard stainless steel surface as

39、 the stainless steel panel adhesive side down.14.4.4 Roll by hand with the 4.5 lb roller once in eachlengthwise direction, causing the roller to apply the flag to thepanel. If the flag is bent or creased during rolldown, discard thespecimen.14.4.5 Install a fixture to holda25in.metal panel at 90to t

40、he line of travel of the lower jaw of the adhesion tester. The5-in. dimension shall be parallel to the jaw faces.Adhere a stripof double-coated pressure sensitive tape to the fixture. Attachthe panel to the double-coated tape on the fixture.14.4.6 Attach a strip of pressure-sensitive tape to be used

41、 asa leader to the non-adhesive coated portion of the flag. Doubleover the other end of the piece of tape adhesive to adhesive andattach the leader to the upper jaw of the adhesion tester.14.4.7 Peel at 12 in./min (300 mm/min) and measure theaverage peel force.14.5 Dispensing ForceThe dispensing for

42、ce shall be mea-sured according to the method for tape unwind, Test MethodD3811/D3811M, with the following changes.14.5.1 Remove and discard the first flag in the pad.14.5.2 Install a fixture to holda25in.metal panel at 90to the line of travel of the lower jaw of the adhesion tester. The5-in. dimens

43、ion shall be parallel to the jaw faces.Adhere a stripof double-coated pressure sensitive tape to the under side of theflag dispenser.14.5.3 Apply the assembly to the double-coated tape so thatthe opening of the dispenser is centered on the upper jaw, inorder to maintain a 90 angle on removal.14.5.4

44、Attach a strip of tape to the loose end of theprotruding flag. The protruding end of the flag should becentered under the upper jaw of the adhesion tester. Clamp thefree end of the tape strip into the upper jaw of the adhesiontester.14.5.5 Start the upper jaw in motion at 12 in./min (300mm/min).14.5

45、.6 After the upper jaw is started in motion, record themaximum force obtained during the removal of the flag fromthe dispenser.14.6 ThicknessMeasure the thickness of the total con-struction of an individual flag including the adhesive accordingto Test Method D3652/D3652M.15. Rejection and Rehearing1

46、5.1 Materials that fail to conform to the requirements ofthis specification may be rejected. Rejected material should bereported to the producer or supplier promptly and in writing.The producer or supplier may make claim for rehearing incases of dissatisfaction with the results of any of the tests.1

47、6. Environmental Considerations16.1 Recovered MaterialsThe manufacturer is encouragedto use recovered materials to the maximum extent practicable.16.2 Toxic MaterialsThe use of potentially toxic materialsin the manufacture of flags covered by this specification are ofconcern because they could be pr

48、esent in emissions whenincinerated or leachate when landfilled. Materials used in themanufacture of flags covered by this specification shall nothave any lead, cadmium, mercury, or hexavalent chromiumintentionally introduced as a component during manufacture asopposed to the incidental presence of a
