3、 provide a callout system for polyethylene utilizingspecimen preparation procedures and test methods based primarily on ISO standards.1. Scope*1.1 This classification system provides for the identification of unfilled polyethylene plastics molding and extrusion materials,with a melt index of 7 to 11

4、 melt flow rate (190C/21.6Kg).NOTE 4It is recognized that some high-density polyethylene plastics of very high molecular weight may have densities slightly less than 0.960, yetin all other respects they are characteristic of Class 4 materials. Similarly, there are other polyethylene plastics of very

5、 high molecular weight havingdensities less than 0.941 that, in all other aspects, are more characteristic of Class 2 than of Class 3 materials.NOTE 5Use the following terms in describing polyethylene plastics:Class 1 (0.910 to 0.925) = low densityClass 2 (0.925 to 0.940) = medium densityClass 3 (0.

6、940 to 0.960) = high density-low rangeClass 4 (0.960) = high density-high range2 For referencedASTM standards, visit theASTM website, www.astm.org, or contactASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.

43、ways be referred to as “Melt Flow Rate”as many of the material grades in this document require shear rate values that are higher than this to accurately differentiate.12.1.2 DensityTest Method ISO 1183-2. Sample shall be a chip from a molded specimen. The use of an alternative methodof suitable accu

45、; however, machine-cut specimens are acceptable. Percentage elongation at break shallinclude the cold-drawing distance. Test results for specimens that break outside the gage marks after extensive cold drawing neednot be discarded, unless the break occurs between the contact surfaces of a grip.12.1.
