Significance and Use5.1 The specific wear rates determined by this test methodcan be used as a guide in ranking the wear resistance of plasticmat

18、erials. The specific wear rate is not a material property andwill therefore differ with test conditions and test geometries.The significance of this test will depend on the relativesimilarity to the actual service conditions.5.2 This test method seeks only to describe the general testprocedure and t

19、he procedure for calculating and reporting data.NOTE 2This test configuration allows steady state specific wear ratesto be achieved very quickly through the use of high loads and speeds. Thethrust washer configuration described in Test Method D 3702 does notallow for the use of such high speeds and

20、loads because of possibleoverheating (which may cause degradation or melting, or both) of thespecimen. Despite the differences in testing configurations, a goodcorrelation in the ranking of wear resistance is achieved between the twotests (Table X2.1).6. Apparatus and Materials6.1 Test SetupAn examp

21、le of the basic test configurationand part names are shown in Fig. 1. The recommendeddimensions of the test apparatus are shown in Fig. 2. Thefigures shown in this test method represent one example of ablock-on-ring test apparatus. The mandatory elements are: thecapability to change load and sliding

22、 speed, the ability toreposition the specimen after weighing as before, and acounterface ring with acceptable eccentricity. All other designelements can be varied according to the user preference.6.1.1 Bearings recommended for counterface drive shaftsare industrial-grade tapered roller bearings.6.1.

23、2 Required centerline alignment limits of the counter-face drive shafts are 60.41 mm (60.016 in.) from the center ofa counterface ring. Allowable eccentricity of the counterfacering is no greater than 60.06 mm (60.002 in.).6.1.3 Bearings recommended for the linear ball groovedbushing bearing are ind

24、ustrial-grade linear bearings.6.2 Counterface RingThe recommended dimensions forthe counterface ring are 100 + 0.05, 0.00-mm diameter and15.88 + 0.30, 0.13-mm width. Often a hardened tool steelring with a hardness of 50 to 60 HRC and a surface roughnessof 0.102 to 0.203 m (4 to 8 in.) Rain the direc

25、tion of slidingis used for the general evaluation of plastics. The requirementfor the ring material is that it should not wear appreciably orchange dimensions during the course of the test. Therefore,other materials and surface conditions may also be used. Itshould be noted that test results will be

26、 influenced by thechoice of ring material and surface roughness.6.3 Test BlockThe recommended dimensions of the testblock are 6.35 + 0.00, 0.03-mm (0.250 + 0.000, 0.001-in.)FIG. 1 Single Station Block-on-Ring ArrangementG 137 97 (2009)2width, 6.00 + 0.00, 0.03-mm (0.236 + 0.000, 0.001-in.)depth, and

For materials wheresurface condition is not a parameter under study, a groundsurface with the grinding marks running parallel to the depthdirection of the block and a roughness of 0.102 to 0.203 m (4to 8 in.) Rain the direction of motion is recommended.However, other surface

28、conditions may be evaluated as de-sired.6.4 Test Parameters:6.4.1 The recommended range for the normal load is from20 to 40 N.6.4.2 The recommended range for the velocity is from 0.5 to1 m/s.6.5 Apparatus:6.5.1 Analytical Balance, capable of measuring to the near-est 0.01 mg.7.

31、alibrated with NISTtraceable standards.9. Conditioning9.1 ConditioningCondition the test specimens at 23 62C (73.4 6 3.6F) and 50 6 5 % relative humidity for not lessthan 40 h prior to testing in accordance with Procedure A ofPractice D 618 for those samples where conditioning is re-quired.3The inte

32、rlaboratory tests were conducted using the torque transducers manu-factured by Key Transducers, Inc., Sterling Heights, MI.NOTEAll dimensions are given in millimetres.FIG. 2 Recommended Dimensions of Block-on-Ring ApparatusG 137 97 (2009)39.2 Test ConditionsThe recommended conditions are thestandard

33、 laboratory atmosphere of 23 6 2C (73.4 6 3.6F)and 50 6 5 % relative humidity.10. Procedure10.1 Clean the counterface ring using mild soap and waterso as to remove bulk dirt and corrosion-inhibiting oil. After-wards, clean the counterface ring in an ultrasonic acetone bathfor 2 h (43 kHz 95 W) to re

34、move the remaining contaminants.Allow the ring to dry completely. Handle the ring from thispoint on with lint-free cotton gloves.10.2 Mount the counterface ring on the drive shaft andsecure with a counterface retaining nut (Fig. 1).10.3 Clean the test block and specimen holder with metha-nol. Handle

35、 the test block and the specimen holder withlint-free cotton gloves from this point.10.4 Measure the width and the depth of the test block toensure that the surface dimensions fall within the specifica-tions.10.5 Mount the test block into the specimen holder andtighten so that the test block does no

36、t move within thespecimen holder (Fig. 3).10.6 Weigh the test block and specimen holder to thenearest 0.01 mg.10.7 Position the specimen holder with the test block underthe counterface ring. Repositioning is possible with the use ofa guide that the specimen load shaft slides on and an alignmentscrew

37、 which secures the specimen holder to the specimen loadshaft. The linear ball grooved bushing bearing prevents thespecimen load shaft from rotating.10.8 Apply the required load.Yokes 1 and 2, and Nuts 1 and2inFig. 1 are of equal weight and will not figure intocalculations. The weight of the weight h

38、anger will be includedin the total weight needed. The weight of specimen, specimenholder, specimen load shaft, and lever arm angle adjusting rodwill have to be countered to equal the desired force. To ensurethat the proper load has been applied, a small load cell can bemounted between the specimen a

39、nd the counterface ring withthe load being applied. The lever arm should be maintainedhorizontally by adjusting the height of the lever arm angleadjusting rod. The required load can be applied by othermechanisms.10.9 Frictional torque values produced by the machine itself(should not be more than 60.

40、05 Nm) should be zeroed asfollows:10.9.1 The block-on-ring tester is turned on without anyload being applied to the specimen. This gives a stable torquereading which should be zeroed.After zero marker is obtained,load may be applied to run the test.10.10 Bring the lever arm angle adjusting rod gentl

41、y intocontact with the specimen load shaft to apply the load.10.11 Start the motor and adjust to a desired speed. Thespeed should preferably not exceed 1 m/s.10.11.1 Frictional torque values may be recorded so that anaverage value for the test period may be obtained. Values forthe frictional force c

42、an be obtained from these measurementsby dividing the frictional torque by an appropriate momentarm.10.12 The test should be interrupted a minimum of six timesto determine mass loss as a function of time, though more maybe required to ensure that steady state is established. Theintervals need not be

43、 uniform. Shorter intervals should be usedduring the initial portion of the test and longer intervals duringthe latter portion of the test. The test should be continued untilthree or more of the intervals occur in the steady state range.10.12.1 Halt the speed controlling motor for weight mea-suremen
