The products provided shall meet the salient characteristics of this commercial item description, conform to the producers own drawings, specifications, standards, and quality assurance practices, be the same product of

31、fered for sale in the commercial market and when required, the same as the product provided to the Government as a product sample. 5.1.1 Product sample. When specified in the contract, solicitation, or purchase order, product samples shall be submitted when the molding material is biobased. Provided

32、 by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-A-A-3109B 65.1.2 Certification of biobased content. When specified in the contract, solicitation, or purchase order, certification of biobased content shall be provided. 5.2 Tests. 5.2.1 Flexibility tests (Type

33、 III, all items; and Type IV, item 13 only). 5.2.1.1 Suggested apparatus. The suggested apparatus is equivalent to a laboratory stand with a base, upright and a drill press vise attached to the top of the upright. The base and upright should be at right angles to each other. Any suitable height gaug

34、e may be used for recording the readings before and after loading of the fork, knife or spoon. 5.2.1.2 Fork tine. Insert the handle of a finished fork into the vise jaws of the apparatus until 3 inches protrude from the jaws to the tip end of the tines. The fork shall have the concave surface facing

35、 up. Using a 1 pound weight, attach a small loop of 0.010-inch wire to the weight for applying the load. Apply the load at a point 1/4 inch from the end of each tine. The wire loop shall not fall off due to excessive deflection nor shall the tine break off under this load. 5.2.1.3 Fork. Insert the h

36、andle of a finished fork into the vise jaws of the apparatus so that 2 inches of the fork protrudes from the vise jaws to the base of the tines. The fork shall have the concave surface facing up. Using a triangular file, slightly notch the edges of the fork where the tines begin. Apply the 1-pound l

37、oad smoothly to the point where the base of the tines begin. Deflection greater than that specified in 3.2.5.1 constitutes failure of this test. 5.2.1.4 Knife. Insert the handle of a finished knife into the vise jaws so that the knife protrudes 4 inches from the vise jaws to the end of the cutting e

38、nd. The flat surface of the knife shall be horizontal. Using a triangular file, notch the knife blade at a point 3-1/2 inches from the vise jaws. Apply the 1-pound load and measure the deflection at the point the load is applied. Deflection greater than that specified in 3.2.5.1 constitutes failure

39、of this test. 5.2.1.5 Spoon. At the center of a finished spoon bowl, notch the edge of the bowl with a triangular file. Insert the spoon in the vise jaws so that the distance from the vise jaw to the notches is 3-1/4 inches. The concave surface shall face up. Apply the 1 pound load and measure the d

40、eflection at the point the load is applied. Deflection greater than that specified in 3.2.5.1 constitutes failure of the test. As an additional test for the MRE spoon (item 13), testing shall be performed as previously specified above, except that the distance from the vise jaws to the notches shall

41、 be 4-1/4 inches, and the deflection measurement shall be taken between 30 and 45 seconds after the load is applied. Deflection greater than that specified in 3.2.5.2 for either test shall constitute failure of this test. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without l

42、icense from IHS-,-,-A-A-3109B 7 5.2.2 Heat distortion test (Type III and IV). A hole shall be drilled through the handle, near the end of the fork, knife, or spoon to be tested. The fork, knife, or spoon shall be suspended from the top of a 1000 mL beaker containing enough distilled water, maintaine

43、d at 181oto 187oF, so that the test specimen shall be completely immersed in the distilled water, and in such a manner that no part of the specimen comes in contact with the beaker. After 15 minutes remove the test specimen from the water. Any change in shape shall be considered a test failure. 5.2.

44、3 Impact strength test for Type IV spoons. 5.2.3.1 Apparatus. The apparatus for this test shall be as shown on Natick Drawing 4-1-169. The test weight shall be 1.00 + 0.03 pound and shall be made of metal. 5.2.3.2 Conditioning. The finished spoon shall be conditioned at 73o+ 10oF and 50 + 4 percent

45、relative humidity for 48 hours prior to test. 5.2.3.3 Procedure. The conditioned spoon shall be laid on the hardwood base of the stand with the convex side of the bowl facing upward. The spoon shall be secured to the base in the middle of the handle area by the spring clip as shown on Drawing 4-1-16

46、9, or by any other suitable method which provides sufficient pressure to prevent movement of the spoon during the test. The weight guide tube shall be centered over the bowl area so that the test weight strikes the highest point of the bowl. The bottom of the weight guide tube shall be approximately

47、 1 inch above the bowl. The test weight shall be dropped onto the highest point of the bowl from a height of 12 inches. The spoon shall then be removed from the apparatus and examined to determine conformance with 3.4. Any nonconformance shall be considered a test failure. 5.2.4 Odor and taste test.

48、 A finished fork, knife, spoon, or spork shall be immersed in distilled water at 181oto 187oF for 15 minutes. At the expiration of this time, the utensil shall be removed and tested for odor. The utensil shall then be re-immersed in distilled water at 80oto 90oF for 15 minutes. At the expiration of this time, the fork, knife, spoon, or spork, as applicable, shall be removed and evaluated for taste by placing it in the mouth in simulation of actual eating operation as required in 3.5. The presence of any objectionable odor or taste shall be considered a test failure. 5.2.5 Biodegradation te
