31、be not less than grade 3. 3.7 Resistance to chemicals and stains When tested in accordance with 4.4, the acrylic sheet shall show no permanent staining or deterioration. 3.8 Resistance to wet and dry cycling When tested in accordance with 4.5, the acrylic sheet shall not show any adverse changes in

32、appearance such as blisters, crazes, cracks and discoloration. 4 Test methods 4.1 Determination of tensile strength The test specimen shall be of type 1B according to EN ISO 527-2. The thickness of the test specimen shall be that of the sheet from which it is cut. The test shall be carried out at a

33、temperature of (23 2)C and the test specimens shall be conditioned to this temperature for at least two days before testing. The speed of testing shall be (5 1) mm/min. The mean of five determinations shall be recorded as the tensile strength of the material but if a test specimen breaks in the grip

34、s the result shall be disregarded and a further determination made. The tensile strength shall be calculated by dividing the breaking load by the cross-sectional area of the specimen before testing. DIN EN 263:2008-06 EN 263:2008 (E) 6 4.2 Determination of thermal stability Hang two sheets 300 mm sq

35、uare, taken from the acrylic sheet, in a circulating oven at (200 5)C for 20 min when this nominal temperature is reached. Remove the sheets from the oven, allow them to cool to room temperature while hanging vertically and visually examine them for the presence of blisters. If blistering occurs, re

36、peat the test using two new specimens which have been preconditioned at (80 2)C for 16 h. 4.3 Determination of colour fastness to hot water Cut a test specimen 100 mm x 25 mm from the acrylic sheet and fix in a suitable carrier. Immerse the test specimen in a water bath maintained at (60 2)C for 30

37、min, remove and allow to drain and dry in air for 30 min. Repeat the cycle one hundred times without interruption. Allow 48 h for the test specimen to dry out before it is compared with a sample of the sheet from which it was cut. The colour fastness of the material shall be recorded in terms of the

38、 grey scale for assessing colour change specified in EN 20105-A02. 4.4 Determination of resistance to chemicals and stains 4.4.1 Reagents The list of reagents is given in Table 2. Each aqueous solution shall be prepared immediately before application. The reagents shall be made up and applied at (23

Use any rotating device applying a mass of (1 000 50) g which loosely fits with the device. The lateral cleaning

41、force shall only be that exerted by the mass of the cleaning device; this can be affected by a floating action between the drive shaft and the disc.

42、.4.2.4 Test specimens Specimens shall measure (100 5) mm x (100 5) mm. 4.4.3 Procedure Use a separate test specimen for each reagent test. Clean the test area thoroughly with hot soapy water, rinse and dry with a clean soft cloth. On each test specimen deposit a drop of the test solution. Cover the

43、drop thus formed with a watch glass concave downwards. The drop size shall be determined in order to be completely covered by the watch glass. Allow to act for a time of (120 5) min, at a temperature of (23 5)C with the test areas protected from the affects of sunlight. Thoroughly rinse the test spe

44、cimen with demineralized water and check for adverse changes in appearance by visual examination. If deterioration exists, dip the foam disc of the cleaning device into demineralized water and place it on the surface to be cleaned. Rotate the device at 60 min-1. Clean for thirty revolutions. Rinse w

45、ith demineralized water and visually examine the test area. If deterioration persists repeat the cleaning process with an abrasive agent added to demineralized water. This abrasive agent is defined as follows: alumina used for surface polishing, with particle size comprised between 0,1 m and 2 m and

46、 centred on 0,5 m. DIN EN 263:2008-06 EN 263:2008 (E) 8 4.4.4 Results Note whether or not the reagent causes a stain or deterioration, whether or not such stain or deterioration is removed and if so with water or water with abrasive agent. If the stain is not removed by the water with abrasive agent

47、 record as permanently stained. 4.5 Determination of resistance to wet and dry cycling 4.5.1 Test specimens The specimens to be tested shall be (100 2) mm2. Prior to commencing the test examine the show faces of the samples and mark any surface defects. 4.5.2 Procedure Place a maximum of ten specime

48、ns to be tested vertically in a suitable carrier and place the carrier in a suitable open container. The carrier shall be arranged to avoid contact of one test specimen with another. Pour 2 l of boiling water into the container. Test specimens must be covered. Leave the test specimens in the water f

49、or (8 0,25) h whilst allowing cooling to room temperature. Remove the test specimens from the water, wipe the surfaces with a soft dampened cloth and place the test specimens for drying into an oven for (16 0,5) h at a temperature of (50 2) C. When placing the test specimens in the oven ensure they do not touch the oven walls or each other. Repeat this cycle twenty times using the same test specimens. In the event of an interruption of the test procedure, e.g. over the weekend, leave the test specimens i
