1、Designation: D8156 18Standard Classification System for and Basis of SpecificationsforThermoplastic Elastomer Copolyester Molding andExtrusion Materials (TPC)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D8156; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal ado

2、ption or, in the case of revision, the 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.1. Scope1.1 This classification system covers segmented block co-polyester elastome

3、rs suitable for molding and extrusion.1.2 This classification system allows for the use of seg-mented block copolyesther elastomers that are recycled pro-vided that the requirements as stated in this classificationsystem are met. The proportions of recycled material used, aswell as the nature and am

It ispossible that there are other requirements necessary to identifyparticular characteristics impor

5、tant to specialized applications.One way of specifying them is by using the suffixes as given inSection 5.1.4 This classification system and subsequent line callout(specification) are intended to provide a means of calling outplastic materials used in the fabrication of end items or parts.It is not

6、intended for the selection of materials. Materialselection is best made by those having expertise in the plasticfield after careful consideration of the design and the perfor-mance required of the part, the environment to which it will beexposed, the fabrication process to be employed, the costsinvo

No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.6 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to thetest methods

8、portion, Section 11, of this classification system.This standard does not purport to address all of the safetyconcerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilityof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety,health, and environmental practices and determine the appli-ca

9、bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.NOTE 1This standard, ISO 14910-1, and ISO 14910-2 address thesame subject matter, but differ in technical content.1.7 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in t

19、 Preparation of Test Specimens and Determinationof Properties3. Terminology3.1 DefinitionsThe terminology used in this classificationsystem is in accordance with Terminologies D883 and D1600.4. Classification4.1 Thermoplastic copolyester elastomers are classified intogroups in accordance with the ma

20、terial chemical structure.These groups are subdivided into classes by Hardness and withit, as the result of some relationship with modulus, Flexibility,and are further subdivided into grades by melting point andmelt mass-flow rate, as shown in the Table 1 TPC Group, Table2 TPC Classification, and Ta

21、ble 3 Property requirements.4.1.1 There are no callout-lines included in this standard. Adesignation, a callout-line, is drawn up by using Tables 1-4 asbuilding blocks (see Tables 1-4 and Fig. 1).NOTE 2Drawing up callout lines by using Tables 1-4 as buildingblocks implies that addition of new callou

22、t lines is not necessaryanymore. In case of addition of a new TPC type, only the new materialtype need to be added to Table 1.4.1.2 To facilitate the incorporation of future or specialmaterials, the category unspecified (0) is shown in the TableTPC group.4.2 Reinforced, filled, and/or lubricated ver

23、sions of thePolyester copolymer materials are classified in accordance withTables TPC Group, TPC Classification and TPC Requirements.Table A is used to specify the addition of reinforcements orlubricants at the nominal level indicated (see 4.2.1).TABLE A Reinforcements and LubricantsSymbol Material

25、materials are identified by a single letter that indicates thereinforcement or filler used and two digits that indicate thenominal quantity in percent by weight. Thus, a letter designa-tion G for glass-reinforced and 33 for % of reinforcement, G33,specifies a filled material with a nominal glass lev

26、el of 33 %.The reinforcement letter designations and associated tolerancelevels are shown in the following table:NOTE 3This part of the classification system uses the percent ofreinforcements or additives, or both, in the control of the modified basicmaterial. The types and percentages of reinforcem

27、ents and additives aresometimes shown on the suppliers technical data sheet. If necessary,additional callout of these reinforcements and additives can be accom-plished by the use of the suffix part of the system (see Section 5).NOTE 4Examples of an unfilled and filled Thermoplastic copolyesterelasto

Suffixes5.1 When additional requirements are needed that are notcovered by the basic requirements or cell-table requirements,they shall be indicated through the use of suffixes.5.2 A list of suffixes can be found in Classification D4000(Ta

29、ble 3) and can be used to indicate additional requirements asappropriate. Additional suffixes will be added to that classifi-cation system as test methods and requirements are developedand requested.6. General Requirements6.1 Basic requirements from the property or cell tables arealways in effect un
