Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method is used for determining chemical

3、compatibility of substances in contact with thermoplastic pipeand fittings materials.1.2 This test method is not intended to evaluate the suitabil-ity of solvent cements or adhesives used to join plastic piping.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given

Significance and Use4.1 These procedures can be used to evaluate chemicals ormaterials expected to come in contact with plastic pipingrelative to causing environmental stress-crackin

This procedure can also be usedin stress-rupture regression analysis, where a variety of stresslevels are needed. The methodology can be readily adapted toconducting immersion tests in liquids

Until such time as data is available to address this,the user should take this into consideration when app

Apparatus6.1 Apparatus for constant tensile method.6.1.1 Constant-tensile-load test apparatus which maintainsthe load to within 61 % throughout the test duration.6.1.2 Immersion vessels which can be mounted to thetensile-load apparatus (if applicable).7. Test Specimen7.1 Tes

10、t bars may be either fabricated from compressionmolded plaques, injection molded, or cut from finished prod-uct. Test times and/or stress levels may be reduced byincorporating a knit-line into an injection-molded test bar. If aknit-line is present, the mold should be designed such that theknit-line

11、occurs in the center of the bar, perpendicular to thelongitudinal axis.7.2 A Type IV specimen as shown in Test Method D638shall be used for referee testing. Other specimen geometries areacceptable if shown to provide equivalent results.8. Calibration and Standardization8.1 All test instrumentation s

12、hall be calibrated to standardstraceable to a national standards agency such as the NationalInstitute of Standards and Technology in the United States.9. Conditioning9.1 Condition the specimens and the test chemical ormaterial for 40 hours at 73F 6 4 (23 6 2C) and 50 % 610 % RH prior to applying the

Procedure10.1 Constant tensile method10.1.1 Attach the grips to the test specimen. The ends of thegrips shall be at least 0.

16、75 in. (15 mm) from the area where thetest material is being applied. If testing in an immersionapparatus, this requirement does not apply, failures within 0.25in. (6.4 mm) of the grip shall not be considered a valid test.10.1.2 If using a semi-solid paste material, wrap the speci-mens with plastic

17、wrap or aluminum foil to prevent evapora-tion of liquid components of the paste.10.1.3 If using a liquid, the test specimen must be immersedin the liquid or otherwise exposed in direct contact with theliquid until failure. This exposure should only be used if thechemical agent remains as a liquid fo

19、ng, the stress level shall be the1000-hour stress from the material stress-rupture curve.10.1.5.2 For multiple-stress testing, at least four stresslevels shall be used with at least one stress at or beyond the2500-hour point on the material stress-rupture curve.10.1.6 Apply the load to the specimen

20、gradually within aperiod of 5 to 10 seconds without any abrupt or impact-typeloading of the specimen.10.1.7 Record the time-to-failure of each specimen.10.1.8 If the failure occurs at an area away from where thetest material was applied (that is, clean tensile bar region), at atime less than the neg

21、ative control, it shall not be considered avalid test for that specimen. If only one of 4 specimens fails inthis manner, it may be discarded and the remaining threereported. If more than one fails in this manner, new specimensshall be tested.11. Calculation or Interpretation of Results11.1 When usin

22、g this method with a single stress level, theapplied stress or strain should be sufficient to cause failureswith known stress-cracking agents within 100 hours. As such,it is generally considered acceptable if the chemical or materialunder test does not cause a failure within 1 000 hours at thatsame

23、stress level.11.2 When using this method with multiple stress levels, thetest specimen fail times must be compared with controlspecimens at each stress level, or a previously establishedregression curve for the thermoplastic material.12.
