22、 which is a function of time after molding or curing.4. Summary of Practice4.1 These practices can be used to evaluate systematicallythe effect of natural aging (Procedure A) or accelerated aging(Procedures B and C) on oxygen resistance. To apply itsprinciple, the user first characterizes the materi

23、al, then subjectsthe material to an aging stressor or stressors, followed byre-characterizing the material. Caution must be taken in inter-preting results because interactions occurring in service may bedifferent from those simulated during aging.4.2 It is always more accurate, although not alwayspr

24、actical, to determine the effect of natural aging (ProcedureA)without resorting to accelerated aging (Procedures B and C).Accelerated aging procedures are more useful for determiningmaterial rankings (Procedure B) or for making lifetime predic-tions (Procedure C).4.3 Summary of Practice for Evaluati

25、ng the Effect of Agingin Incident Studies:4.3.1 In incident studies, in which initial characterizationdata are not available, historical or average property data maybe used to draw coarser conclusions about the effect of agingon oxygen resistance.4.4 Practices for Natural Aging (Procedure A) and Acc

26、el-erated Aging for Comparative Oxygen Resistance (ProcedureB):4.4.1 The effect of aging is reported as positive or negativedepending upon whether the property used to evaluate oxygenresistance increases or decreases, and the magnitude of theeffect is reported as the degree to which the measured pro

27、pertychanges relative to that of the unaged material.4.5 Practice for Accelerated Aging for Lifetime Prediction(Procedure C):4.5.1 The time necessary to produce a fixed level ofproperty change is determined at a series of elevated agingtemperatures, and the time necessary to produce the same levelof

28、 property change at some lower temperature is then deter-mined by linear extrapolation.4.5.2 A practice for evaluating the effect of acceleratedaging on physical and mechanical properties under conditionsof variable time and temperature has been validated forsignificance and is described in detail.

29、This practice is similarto that given in Practice D3045 but is specific to aging inoxygen-containing media.4.5.3 A practice for evaluating the effect of acceleratedaging on ignition and combustion properties under conditionsof variable time and temperature has not been validated forsignificance, but

30、 may yield meaningful results. The practicedescribed is included to promote research and possible devel-opment into an established method.4.5.4 There can be very large errors when accelerated agingArrhenius approaches are used to estimate the time necessaryto produce a fixed level of property change

31、 at some lowertemperature. This estimated time to produce a fixed level ofproperty change or “failure” at the lower temperature is oftencalled the “service life.” Because of the errors associated withthese calculations, this time should be considered to be the“maximum expected” rather than “typical.

34、 this practice presupposes that the propertiesused to evaluate the effect of aging can be shown to relate tothe intended use of the material, and are also sensitive to theeffect of aging.5.3 Polymeric materials will, in general, be more suscep-tible than metals to aging effects as evidenced by irrev

35、ersibleproperty loss. Such property loss may lead to catastrophiccomponent failure, including a secondary fire, before primaryignition or combustion of the polymeric material occurs.5.4 Polymers aged in the presence of oxygen-containingmedia may undergo many types of reversible and irreversiblephysi

36、cal and chemical property change. The severity of theaging conditions determines the extent and type of changes thattake place. Polymers are not necessarily degraded by aging, butmay be unchanged or improved. For example, aging may driveoff volatile materials, thus raising the ignition temperaturewi

37、thout compromising mechanical properties. However, agingunder prolonged or severe conditions (for example, elevatedoxygen concentration) will usually cause a decrease in me-chanical performance, while improving resistance to ignitionand combustion.5.5 Aging may result in reversible mass increase(phy

38、sisorption), irreversible mass increase (chemisorption),plasticization, discoloration, loss of volatiles, embrittlement,softening due to sorption of volatiles, cracking, relief ofmolding stresses, increased crystallinity, dimensional change,advance of cure in thermosets and elastomers, chainscission

39、ing, and crosslinking.5.6 After a period of service, a materials properties may besignificantly different from those when new.All materials ratedfor oxygen service should remain resistant to ignition andcombustion (primary fire risk). Furthermore, all materials ratedfor oxygen service should be resi

40、stant to oxidative degradationand retain relevant physical and mechanical properties duringservice, because part failure can indirectly lead to an unaccept-able ignition or combustion risk (secondary fire risk).5.7 In cases where aging makes a material more susceptibleto fire or causes significant o

41、xidative degradation, aging testsmay be used to evaluate whether the material will becomeunacceptable during service. In cases where aging makes amaterial less susceptible to fire, aging tests may be used toevaluate whether a material can be conditioned (artificiallyaged) to prolong its service life

Determination of material acceptability must be per-formed within the broader context of review of system orcomponent design, plausible ignition mechanisms, ignitionproba

45、ng is expected to have agreater influence on a polymers ignition properties (forexample, autogenous ignition temperature (AIT), mechanicaland pneumatic impact) than its propagation properties (forexample, upward and downward flame propagation). To date,the only background on aging influences is that

46、 of theBundesanstalt fr Materialforschung und -prfung (BAM)which has assessed the effect of aging at elevated pressure andtemperature on a materials AIT. BAM has used the AIT testresults to establish maximum constraints on the use of mate-rials at elevated pressure and temperature.56. Rationale for

47、Aging Tests6.1 The body of information on the effect of natural agingon oxygen resistance under conditions of multiple stressors issmall, and so, this practice is intended to promote testingtowards the goal of developing better practices to evaluate thecompeting effects of multiple stressors.6.2 The

48、 body of information on the effect of acceleratedaging on ignition and combustion is small, and so, this practiceis intended to promote testing towards the goal of developingpotential practices to evaluate the effect of accelerated aging onignition and combustion.7. Apparatus7.1 General Consideratio

49、ns:7.1.1 The apparatus used for aging can vary widely. Agingin ambient pressure air, gravity-convection ovens or forced-ventilation ovens may be used. When aging in pressurizedoxygen-enriched media, pressure-rated cell-type ovens or oxy-gen pressure chambers that provide a greater margin of safetymust be used because of the increased risk of ignition orcombustion.7.1.2 This practice focuses on small-scale aging methodsinvolving a requisite number and type of specimens in accor-dance with the ASTM test method for the specific propertybeing de
