1、Designation: D 7216 09Standard Test Method forDetermining Automotive Engine Oil Compatibility withTypical Seal Elastomers1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 7216; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, t

2、he 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.INTRODUCTIONAny properly equipped laboratory, without outside assistance, can use the test method described inthis stan

3、dard. However, the ASTM Test Monitoring Center (TMC)2provides a reference oil (TMC1006-1) and an assessment of the test results obtained with this oil and the reference elastomers. Bythese means, the laboratory will know whether their use of the test method gives results statisticallysimilar to thos

4、e obtained by other laboratories.The TMC also use the reference oil results on different batches of elastomers from differentlaboratories to update continually the total and within-laboratory standard deviation estimates. Somespecifications, for example, Specification D 4485, use the updated TMC sta

5、ndard deviation estimates,pertaining at the time test oils are evaluated, to adjust specification limits for the effects of the industrytest variability.Various agencies require that a laboratory utilize the TMC services in seeking qualification of oilsagainst specifications. For example, the U.S. A

6、rmy imposes such a requirement in connection withseveral Army engine lubricating oil specifications.Accordingly, this test method is written for use by laboratories that utilize the TMC services.Laboratories that choose not to use those services may simply ignore those portions of the test methodtha

7、t refer to the TMC.This test method may be modified by means of information letters issued by the TMC. In addition,the TMC may issue supplementary memoranda related to this test method.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers quantitative procedures for theevaluation of the compatibility of automotive en

8、gine oils withseveral reference elastomers typical of those used in the sealingmaterials in contact with these oils. Compatibility is evaluatedby determining the changes in volume, Durometer A hardnessand tensile properties when the elastomer specimens areimmersed in the oil for a specified time and

9、 temperature.1.2 Effective sealing action requires that the physical prop-erties of elastomers used for any seal have a high level ofresistance to the liquid or oil in which they are immersed.When such a high level of resistance exists, the elastomer issaid to be compatible with the liquid or oil.NO

10、TE 1The user of this test method should be proficient in the use ofTest Methods D 412 (tensile properties), D 471 (effect of rubber immer-sion in liquids), D 2240 (Durometer hardness), and D 5662 (gear oilcompatibility with typical oil seal elastomers), all of which are involved inthe execution of t

11、he operations of this test method.1.3 This test method provides a preliminary or first orderevaluation of oil/elastomer compatibility only. Because sealsmay be subjected to static or dynamic loads, or both, and theymay operate over a range of conditions, a complete evaluation1This test method is und

17、such cases, the precision and bias statement in Section 12does not apply. In addition to agreeing acceptable limits of precision,where relevant, the user and supplier should also agree: (1) test tempera-tures and immersion times to be used; (2) the formulations and typicalproperties of the elastomer

18、s; and (3) the sourcing and quality control of theelastomer sheets.NOTE 3The TMC may also issue Information Letters on this matter.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address

19、 all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.7 This test method is arranged as follows:SectionScope 1Re

34、2.1.1 DiscussionThe phrase “high compatibility” indi-cates that after contact or immersion, the elastomer propertiesare maintained at or near their initial level. The terms “lack ofcompatibility” and “low compatibility” indicate that aftercontact or immersion, the elastomer properties are adverselya

Summary of Test Method4.1 Measurements of initial volume, hardness (DurometerA) and tensile properties are

38、 made on specimens of specifieddimensions cut from sheets of reference elastomers.4.1.1 Table 1 shows the types of elastomers involved,typical of those used in heavy-duty diesel engines.4.2 The elastomer specimens are immersed in both non-reference oil(s) and a reference oil and aged for 336 h atspe

39、cified temperatures.4.3 The effects of the test oils on the elastomers aredetermined by measuring the changes in volume, hardness andtensile properties resulting from the immersion in the oil.5. Significance and Use5.1 Some engine oil formulations have been shown to lackcompatibility with certain el

40、astomers used for seals in automo-tive engines. These deleterious effects on the elastomer aregreatest with new engine oils (that is, oils that have not beenexposed to an engines operating environment) and when theexposure is at elevated temperatures.5.2 This test method requires that non-reference

41、oil(s) betested in parallel with a reference oil, TMC 1006-1, known tobe aggressive for some parameters under service conditions.This relative compatibility permits decisions on the anticipatedor predicted performance of the non-reference oil in service.5.3 Elastomer materials can show significant v

42、ariation inphysical properties, not only from batch-to-batch but alsowithin a sheet and from sheet-to-sheet. Results obtained withthe reference oil are submitted by the test laboratories to theTMC to allow it to update continually the total and within-laboratory standard deviation estimates. These e

43、stimates, there-fore, incorporate effects of variations in the properties of thereference elastomers on the test variability.5.4 This test method is suitable for specification compliancetesting, quality control, referee testing, and research anddevelopment.5.5 The reference elastomers, reference oil

44、 and the physicalproperties involved in this test method address the specificrequirements of engine oils. Although other tests exist forcompatibility of elastomers with liquids, these are consideredtoo generalized for engine oils.6. Apparatus6.1 The testing equipment as specified in Test MethodsD 41
