Significance and Us

17、e4.1 This specification describes types (based on resistanceto tearing and compression set), grades (based on durometerhardness), class (based on flame propagation requirements),and surfaces (based on surface characteristics) of products aslisted in Section 5 for various applications. It is essentia

18、l,therefore, that the applicable type, grade, class, and surface bespecified, as well as other options stated, so that the properproduct is provided for the intended use.5. Classification5.1 The products described by this specification are classi-fied by type, hardness, class, and surface.5.2 Type:5

19、.2.1 Type T, Tear ResistantIn general these productshave a higher level of tear resistance. This type is applicablewhere finished products are intended to bridge or to cover aspace (for example, expansion joint gaskets), or where hightear strength is required due to conditions of exposure or usage.5

20、.2.2 Type C, Compression Set ResistantIn general, theseproducts have a higher level of compression set resistance. Thistype is applicable where finished products are used as com-pression gaskets, or where low compression set is required dueto conditions of exposure or usage; and as setting blocks,sp

21、acers, shims, or other accessories in glazing and sealingsystems.5.3 GradeEach type described in 5.2 is subdivided intovarious hardnesses, based on nominal durometer hardness asshown in Tables 1 and 2. For example, Grade H3 is 30durometer.5.4 Class:5.4.1 Flame propagation characteristics of the fini

22、shed prod-ucts can be varied depending on the degree of exposure,expected usage, and intended durability desired. Productsdescribed by this specification shall be classified as to flamepropagation as follows:5.4.1.1 Class FResistance to flame propagation is re-quired (reference Specification C 864,

23、4.1, Table 1).5.4.1.2 Class designation is not needed when flame propa-gation resistance is not required.5.5 Surface:5.5.1 Consideration of product surface requirements may benecessary. During the production of these products the use ofvarious lubricants, release agents, dusting agents, and othersol

24、utions may be required. It may be necessary to remove thesematerials from the surfaces of the product because of appear-ance fabrication, or usage requirements. All products do notrequire removal of these materials or removal to the samedegree of cleanliness.5.5.2 Products may also be required to de

25、velop adhesion orto not develop adhesion to sealants with which they are incontact.5.5.3 Products described by this specification shall be clas-sified as to surface condition as follows:5.5.3.1 Surface S1The surface of the product shall besmooth, clean, free from any foreign matter, and shall not al

27、t.5.5.3.3 Surface S3The product shall have a surface that issmooth, clean, and free from any foreign matter.5.5.4 Surface designation code is not needed for productsnot requiring special cleaning for removal of processing agentsand materials.5.6 The following is an illustration of the use of theclas

Materials and Manufacture6.1 The products described by this specification shall be apreformed extrusion manufactured from a thermoplastic vul-canizate (TPV). This TPV shall be classified under Classifica-tion System D

30、2000.6.1.1 The pre-compounded TPV shall be manufacturedfrom virgin polymer, that when properly extruded, will result inan elastomer that will comply with this specification.6.2 The compound in its final shape shall be flee of visibleinternal porosity, surface defects, and dimensional irregulari-ties

31、 that affect serviceability and durability.6.3 Unless otherwise specified, the compound color shall beblack. If colors other than black are specified, the compound inthe color specified shall also meet the requirements of thisspecification.TABLE 1 Requirements for Fully Cured Elastomeric Alloy Injec

The closer tolerances d

44、emanded, the tighter the control which must be exercised during manufacture and hence higher costs.NOTE 2When particular physical properties are required in the product, it is not always possible to provide them in a combination which is capableof fabrication to close tolerances. It is necessary, in

45、 these circumstances, that consultation take place between the customer and supplier. In general, softermaterials need greater tolerances than harder ones. Where close tolerances are required, a specific technique of measurement should be agreed uponbetween purchaser and manufacturer.NOTE 3Tolerance

46、s on dimensions above 100 mm (3.94 in.) should be agreed on by supplier and user. General cross sectional dimensions below 1mm (0.04 in.) are impractical.NOTE 4In general, softer materials and those requiring a post cure need greater tolerances.RMA Class1High Precision2Precision3CommercialDrawing De
