The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out th

17、rough ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collab

18、orates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Stan

19、dards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of

20、 this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 7231 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 45, Rubber and rubber products, Subcommittee SC 4, Products (other than hoses). This second edition cancels and rep

21、laces the first edition (ISO 7231:1984), which has been technically revised. Major modifications in this revision are: a) the inclusion of a warning statement; b) the inclusion of a new method (method B) particularly suitable for materials with a low permeability to air; c) the inclusion of precisio

22、n data for method B; d) the inclusion of an example showing how a computer-controlled apparatus could be used to carry out method B.

23、stant pressure-drop WARNING Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and he

24、alth practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies two methods for determining the air flow value of flexible cellular polymeric materials: method A, for conventional types of flexible cellular polymeric material; method B,

25、for all types of flexible cellular polymeric material, but especially for materials with a low permeability to air. NOTE 1 Air flow values can be used to give an indication of the effects of formulation and production variables on the cellular structure. NOTE 2 In this International Standard, the ex

26、pression “conventional type of flexible cellular polymeric material” means types which are unsuitable for sealing purposes. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

28、 flow value volume flow rate required to maintain a constant pressure differential across a flexible foam test piece 4 Principle A specified constant air pressure differential is created across a standard flexible foam specimen. The rate of flow of air required to maintain this pressure differential

29、 is the air flow value. BS EN ISO 7231:2010ISO 7231:2010(E) 2 ISO 2010 All rights reserved5 Method A 5.1 Apparatus 5.1.1 General Diagrams of suitable apparatus are shown in Figure 1 (using an air pressure below atmospheric) and Figure 2 (using an air pressure above atmospheric). The essential parts

30、are described in 5.1.2 to 5.1.5. 5.1.2 Flow-meters Low-pressure-drop flow-meters with an accuracy of up to 2 % are required for air flow measurements. The actual air flow shall be adjusted by a combination of valve restriction, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, and blower or vacuum pump speed, so that th

31、e required pressure difference across the specimen see 5.4 c) is maintained constant. Air flow-meters with at least 250 mm scales are recommended. Flow-meters measuring in the range 0 dm3/s to 10 dm3/s will cover a wide variety of cellular polymeric materials. 5.1.3 Manometer A manometer graduated i

32、n the 0 Pa to 250 Pa range and with an accuracy of 2 % is required. Traps to prevent manometer fluid being drawn into the test chamber by accidental pressure changes shall be provided. A plunger in the fluid reservoir is used to set the zero point after levelling the manometer. The use of an incline

33、d manometer with 2 Pa graduations is recommended. A level mounted on the manometer should be used to ensure that the proper degree of inclination from the horizontal is maintained. 5.1.4 Air supply or suction equipment The air supply or suction may be such that positive or negative pressure differen

34、ces from atmospheric pressure are obtained across the test piece, using compressed air, an exhaust blower or a vacuum pump, etc. NOTE A particular apparatus can be constructed to use only positive or negative pressure. 5.1.5 Test piece mounting A chamber of nominal dimensions 140 mm diameter 150 mm

35、depth (see Figure 1) or 75 mm diameter 1 000 mm length (see Figure 2), incorporating a test piece mounting and fittings for the manometer and exhaust, shall be provided. The test piece cavity shall be (50 0,05) mm (50 0,05) mm (25 0,05) mm. The test piece shall be supported by suitable means, for ex

36、ample by the use of vanes, wires or a perforated support. The support shall provide a minimum open proportion of 70 % of the overall area, evenly distributed over its area (see Figures 1 and 2 for the positioning of the supports). Manometer and exhaust fittings shall be as shown in Figures 1 and 2.

37、5.1.6 Test chamber operated at below atmospheric pressure The apparatus, shown in Figure 1, shall be checked for leaks in the following manner: a) Seal the test piece mounting cavity with masking tape. b) With all the flow-meter valves closed, turn the air supply to approximately one-third of the ma

38、ximum setting and observe any movement of the manometer. The manometer reading shall not exceed 1 Pa after 30 s. c) Open the valve on the lowest-range flow-meter very slightly. The flow shall be essentially zero, as shown by a movement of less than 3 mm of the flow-meter float from its static positi

39、on. BS EN ISO 7231:2010ISO 7231:2010(E) ISO 2010 All rights reserved 35.2 Test pieces The test pieces shall normally be in the form of a right parallelepiped of dimensions (51,0 0,3) mm (51,0 0,3) mm (25,0 0,3) mm. If test pieces of a different thickness are used, the thickness shall be stated in th

40、e test report. Any test pieces with length or breadth dimensions outside the required tolerance shall be discarded as they will lead to inaccurate air flow values. The test pieces shall be cut out without deformation of the original cell structure. Three test pieces shall be tested. NOTE Test pieces

41、 both with and without surface skin can be tested by this method, but the results will not be comparable. 5.3 Test conditions Testing shall be carried out under the standard conditions of either (23 2) C and (50 5) % relative humidity or (27 2) C and (65 5) % relative humidity, unless otherwise spec

42、ified. NOTE Since the flow-meter calibration is sensitive to temperature, the results obtained with these two sets of conditions will not necessarily be comparable. 5.4 Procedure The method of measurement shall be as follows: a) Place the test piece in the test cavity with any skin on the side expos

43、ed to the lower pressure. Make sure that the test piece is free from undue strain and that a good air seal is obtained between the edges of the test piece and the apparatus. b) Close the flow-meter valves and switch on the blower or vacuum pump. c) Open the high-range flow-meter slowly and adjust th

44、e air flow to obtain a pressure differential of (125 1) Pa on the manometer. d) If this reading is less than 10 % of full scale, close the valve of this flow-meter and open the medium-range flow-meter valve. Repeat this procedure until the correct flow-meter has been selected and the reading obtaine

45、d. For greater accuracy, it is preferable to use two adjacent flow-meters, holding the higher-range one steady on an appropriate graduation mark and making the adjustment on the lower-range one. In this case, the air flow value is obtained from the sum of the two flow-meter readings after maintainin

46、g the pressure differential for 10 s. e) Record the reading obtained as described in step d), in cubic decimetres per second, as the air flow value for the specimen. 5.5 Test report The test report shall include the following information: a) a reference to this International Standard; b) the method

47、used (method A); c) all details necessary to identify the material tested; d) the individual test results and the mean air flow value; e) if test pieces of thickness different from that specified in 5.2 were used, the thickness of the test pieces; f) the orientation of the test pieces with respect t

48、o the direction of any anisotropy and the presence or absence of any skins; g) the test conditions used, i.e. temperature, relative humidity, apparatus type and pressure direction; h) the date of the test.
