Take a sufficient number ofreadings, depending on the size of the specimen, to

34、provide areliable average value.9.3 WeightDetermine the initial weight of a specimen byremoving it from the conditions required after conditioning(Section 5) and placing it immediately in the tared weighingbottle. Measure the weight of the test specimen to the nearest1 mg (0.001 g) and record where

35、calculations for percentage ofweight change are to be taken.9.4 Immersion in Fluids:9.4.1 Elevated TemperaturePlace appropriate specimensin the test tubes or boiling flask, using only one material pertest tube. Pour enough fresh fluid into the tube to completelycover the specimens and ensure that th

36、ey are immersed. Insertthe aluminum-foil covered stoppers into the test tubes beforeplacing them in the supporting rack within the oven.9.4.1.1 At the end of the test period, remove and immedi-ately immerse the specimens in a cool (21 to 29C (70 to85F), fresh portion of the test fluid for 30 to 60 m

37、in. Thenwithdraw the specimens from the cooled-down test fluid andimmediately blot the samples with sheets of blotting paper toremove excess liquid from the surfaces. Exercise care whenremoving the excess fluid so that no squeezing action occurs onthe sample. Specimens over 0.79 mm (0.031 in.) in th

38、icknessshould also be blotted on the edges.9.4.2 Room TemperaturePlace appropriate specimens inthe immersion containers using pieces of light-metal screens toseparate individual specimens of one test material from thoseof another and the bottom of the container, and also to ensurethat the specimens

39、remain immersed in the test fluid. Pourenough fresh test fluid over the specimens to ensure that thespecimens are wetted and covered by the fluid. Use enoughfluid to provide a minimum of 10 mL for each specimen in thecontainer.9.4.3 Volatile FluidsWhen withdrawing specimens thathave been immersed in

40、 a highly volatile fluid such as Fuel B,immediately test for the desired properties.9.4.4 ContaminationImmersion tests should contain ma-terials with similar chemistries to ensure that adjacent samplesare not contaminated as a result of chemical breakdown. Ifsuch information is not available, then t

41、he material should betested by itself in fresh fluid to determine compatibility withsaid fluid.9.5 Compressibility After ImmersionAfter subjecting thespecimens to immersion, test them in accordance with TestMethod F 36, except the time to apply the major load shall bebetween 5 and 10 s to avoid rupt

42、uring the test specimen.9.6 Tensile Strength After ImmersionAfter subjecting thespecimens to immersion in test fluid, test them in accordancewith Test Methods F 152 using the original dry measurementsas as reference values.9.7 Thickness Change After ImmersionRemeasure thespecimens that were subjecte

43、d to the immersion in test fluids tomeasure the change in thickness in accordance with theprocedure in 9.2. The change in thickness of the specimens isto be calculated as an expression of percentage change from theoriginal thickness.NOTE 2Great care must be taken to record the swollen thicknesswhen

44、the needle slows to a different rate which reflects indentation into thesoftened specimen.9.8 Flexibility After ImmersionTest specimens which areto be measured for flexibility after immersion in fluids inaccordance with the procedure in Test Method F 147.9.9 Volume Change After ImmersionTest specime

45、ns to betested for volume change in accordance with Test MethodD 471. For materials having less than specific gravity 1.00, usethe following procedure if a Jolly balance is employed:9.9.1 Level and zero the Jolly balance and ensure it isproperly shielded from drafts.9.9.2 Attach a small metal sinker

46、 (about5gisusuallysufficient) to the weighing hook so that it is totally immersed inwater.9.9.3 Weigh the specimen in air and record the scalereading, SR1.9.9.4 Then weigh the specimen in distilled water and recordthe scale reading, SR2.9.9.5 The original volume, V1, then equals SR1SR2.9.9.6 After r

47、emoving the specimen from the test medium,repeat 9.9.3, 9.9.4, and 9.9.5. This gives the final volume, V2.Change the distilled water used in the test frequently.NOTE 3Caution: Use the same sinker throughout.9.9.6.1 Calculate the change in volume, V, as follows:V 5 V22 V1!/V1# 3 100 (1)where:V = chan

48、ge in volume, %,V2= volume after removal from liquid, andV1= original volume.9.10 Weight Change After ImmersionReweigh specimensthat have been subjected to immersion in fluids using theprocedure in accordance with 9.3. The change in weight of thespecimens is to be calculated as an expression of perc

49、entagechange on the original weight.9.11 Adhesion After Immersion for MLS or Metal LayerGasket MaterialTest specimens of coated metal from Multi-Layer Steel, MLS, or Metal Layer Gasket Material subjected toimmersion in fluids and tested for adhesion per ASTM D3359,Standard Test Methods for Measuring Adhesion by Tape Test.It is understood that the results will be reported per D3359along with the specific immersion conditions used prior to saidadhesion test.
