17、tion (see BS ISO 4589-2) BSI 31 October 20051BS4N100-2:19994 General4.1 IntroductionNOTE 1 The compatibility of a non-metallic material with oxygen in a particular application is normally assessed by use of its specific SIT, the critical oxygen index, the heat of combustion, its record of use in sim

18、ilar applications and the quantity involved. However, recent research indicates that the SIT alone provides exactly the same rank order of materials regarding correlation linking the SIT with the heat of combustion and the critical oxygen index. In some circumstances, a knowledge of all three parame

19、ters may help to decide which non-metallic material to select.NOTE 2 In the earlier editions of BS N 100 the criteria for selecting a non-metallic material were primarily based on the “bomb test” (providing data to calculate the statistically defined SIT) and material performance in pass/fail tests

20、referred to as the “pot test” and the “liquid oxygen impact test”. The three defined tests had specific uses. The pot test was used to assess materials used in oxygen atmospheres up to a pressure of 0.4 MPa. The bomb test was used for the assessment of a materials performance in oxygen atmospheres a

21、t pressures in the range 0.4 MPa to 20.8 MPa. The liquid oxygen impact test was used to support decisions about a materials compatibility with gaseous oxygen, when pressures of 20.8 MPa to 34.6 MPa were to be employed.NOTE 3 The liquid oxygen impact test was also used to assess the suitability of a

22、material for use with liquid oxygen.Gaseous oxygen used in these tests shall conform to BS N 3. Liquid oxygen used in these tests shall conform to Def Stan 16-1.The sample shall be submitted to the tester using Form 1 in Annex A.4.2 The pot testNOTE The pot test was originally developed to simulate

23、the dynamic conditions found in very low pressure hoses, aviators oxygen masks and similar equipment.4.2.1 The apparatus shall consist of a horizontal tube furnace, a flow meter and a borosilicate glass ignition tube, fitted with a thermocouple and a suitably terminated glass rod.4.2.2 The oxygen at

24、mosphere shall be held at pressures below 0.69 MPa.4.2.3 Maintain the flow rate of oxygen at 2 103m3minute1at atmospheric pressure. Heat the furnace to the selected temperature between 273 K and 673 K and maintain it for 15 minutes. Introduce a fresh 60 mg block sample into the hot oxygen stream. Re

25、move the sample after 2 minutes and examine it for signs of ignition. Repeat the test, using fresh samples each time, with temperature increments of 20 K per test until either ignition or 673 K is reached. When a sample is found to have ignited, reduce the test temperature by 5 K steps until no igni

26、tion occurs. Repeat the test a succession of five times at this temperature, during which no ignition shall occur.A recorded temperature of not less than 523 K is required for materials intended for use up to 0.4 MPa, when tested six times in succession without ignition.4.3 The bomb testNOTE The bom

27、b test was originally developed to test materials used for oxygen service at pressures substantially above 0.4 MPa. (See also clause 6.)4.3.1 Expose a sample to progressive ramped heating while in a high pressure oxygen atmosphere, i.e. 13.2 MPa. Contain the sample in a pressure vessel designed to w

28、ithstand pressures exceeding those of the test conditions.4.3.2 The bomb shall be a stainless steel pressure vessel with a custom-built electric heater. The element of the heater shall be wound on to a borosilicate glass tube and covered in heat-resistant cement. A borosilicate combustion tube shall

29、 be situated horizontally inside the pressure vessel, to hold the test sample in a borosilicate combustion boat. A chromel-alumel thermocouple shall be inserted through the flanged end of the pressure vessel and be permanently fixed in place in the combustion tube so that the centre of the combustio

30、n boat can be positioned directly below the tip of the thermocouple. The nose of the bomb, remote from the flange, shall be fitted with a removable plug and PTFE sealing gasket, to provide access to the interior of the bomb for each test.4.3.3 Insert block samples of (60 2) mg into the bomb and seal

31、 and purge it to remove air and any previous products of decomposition. Fill the vessel with oxygen to the test pressure of 13.2 MPa. Increase the sample 12 BSI 31 October 2005temperature at a rate of not less than 20 K min up to the temperature at which ignition occurs or 673 K, whichever is the lo

32、wer. The ignition temperature shall be determined by noting the sample temperature at which a sudden increase in the rate of temperature rise occurs. The pressure in the bomb shall be maintained at the set test pressure throughout the heating period.BS4N100-2:19994.3.4 The statistically defined SIT

33、(3.4) for each test sequence shall be determined by calculating the arithmetic mean and the standard root mean square deviation of a minimum of six ignition temperatures.4.3.5 The maximum permitted working pressure for a material shall be determined from Table 1 and this value shall be used to decla

34、re the compatibility of the material in oxygen at a maximum working temperature of 363 K (90 C), with respect to fire hazard.Table 1 Determination of maximum working pressure4.4 Liquid oxygen impact test4.4.1 PrincipleThis test requires the sample to be mixed with abrasive material (carborundum powd

35、er or silicon carbide), immersed in liquid oxygen and subjected to the impact of a known mass falling vertically from a pre-determined height on to the sample. The required drop height of the mass is 1.37 m. The total mass is 9.1 kg, thus the impact energy is 122 J.4.4.2 Apparatus4.4.2.1 Impact test

36、 machine, of a typical construction which is illustrated in Figure 1, consisting of two vertical columns down which the mass (drop weight) slides. The test machine is housed in a steel cabinet. The release mechanism is controlled from outside the cabinet and the door carries a periscope through whic

37、h the results of impact are observed.NOTE The apparatus should have low temperature strength and be protected against corrosion. A suitable material for use in its construction is stainless steel 304S15 in accordance with BS 970:Part 1, alternatively grade 1.4301 of BS EN 10088-1.4.4.2.2 Sample hold

38、ers, made from 0.08 mm gauge nickel foil by pressing the foil into a brass former with a brass rod. The resultant “cup” is to be a sliding fit onto the end of a 12.6 (0/0.25) mm diameter striker pin (see Figure 0). When the cup is in position on the anvil with the striker pin resting on the sample,

39、liquid oxygen has to be able to enter and surround the sample with minimum loss of the abrasive material.4.4.2.3 Abrasive material, 80 to 100 mesh, Carborundum (silicon carbide) rigorously cleaned by heating to 600 C for 2 h, cooled in a desiccator and then protected by storing in a glass-stoppered

40、bottle.NOTE A desiccant may be considered necessary if long term storage is envisaged.4.4.2.4 Liquid oxygen, in accordance with 4.1.Minimum statistically defined SIT at 13.2 MPa Maximum working pressure at 363 K(90 C) (MPa absolute)K C473 200 0.4503 230 1.1523 250 2.1573 300 4.1623 350 10.1648 375 1

BSI 31 October 20053BS4N100-2:19994.4.3 Procedure4.4.3.1 Cover the bottom of the inside of a nickel cup with abrasive material, place the test sample on the powder and pour on more abr

42、asive material until the sample is covered.4.4.3.2 See that the drop weight is in the required position (4.4.1) and that the safety pin is securely fixed.4.4.3.3 Transfer the nickel cup, with contents, to the baseplate, placing it immediately under the striker pin. Adjust this pin so that it rests l

43、ightly on the surface of the abrasive material.4.4.3.4 Gently tighten the pin retaining screw in the bridge against one of the flats, with minimum pressure, so that the pin can only move vertically along the length of the flat, approximately 10 mm, thus preventing the pin bouncing out of the bridge

44、immediately after impact with consequent damage to the bridge.4.4.3.5 Slowly pour liquid oxygen into the reservoir, until the boiling rate decreases to a constant low level.4.4.3.6 Support the drop weight, remove the safety pin, and while still supported advance the release pin.4.4.3.7 Refill the li

45、quid oxygen reservoir until it overflows.4.4.3.8 Close the cabinet door, observe the liquid oxygen reservoir through the periscope and pull the release lever. The drop weight shall impact the striker pin while the sample material is still covered with liquid oxygen.4.4.3.9 Through the periscope obse

The audibility of any detonation varies from a sound just distinguishable from the background of the impact to a very loud, sharp, bang.4.4.3.10 Remove the nickel cup and note

47、any odour which indicates that some oxidation has occurred to the sample that did not produce a flash or detonation.4.4.3.11 Repeat the operations 4.4.3.1 to 4.4.3.10 until a clear detonation occurs or until a maximum of ten times.Dimensions in millimetresKey 1 Faces square and parallel.Figure 0 Det
