Special atmospheres applicable to a particular test or material or simulating a particular c

17、limatic environment are not included in this International Standard. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced do

18、cument (including any amendments) applies. ISO 62, Plastics Determination of water absorption 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 standard atmosphere preferred constant atmosphere for which specific air temperature and humidity va

19、lues, as well as limit ranges for atmospheric pressure and air-circulation velocity, are specified, the air not having any significant additional constituents and the atmosphere not being subject to any significant additional radiation influences NOTE 1 Standard atmospheres permit a defined state to

20、 be attained and maintained for samples or specimens. NOTE 2 Standard atmospheres correspond to the average atmospheric conditions in laboratories and can be established in conditioning (controlled atmosphere) cabinets, chambers or rooms. 3.2 conditioning atmosphere constant atmosphere in which a sa

21、mple or test specimen is kept before being subjected to a test 3.3 test atmosphere constant atmosphere to which a sample or test specimen is exposed throughout a test 3.4 conditioning one or more operations intended to bring a sample or test specimen into a state of equilibrium with regard to temper

23、TE The phrase “at ambient temperature” refers to an environment the air temperature of which lies within a specified range, no consideration being given to relative humidity, atmospheric pressure or air-circulation velocity. In general, the air-temperature range extends from 18 C to 28 C and is stat

24、ed as “at an ambient temperature of 18 C to 28 C”. 4 Principle If a test specimen is exposed to a specific conditioning atmosphere or temperature, then a reproducible state of temperature and/or of moisture equilibrium is reached between the test specimen and the conditioning atmosphere or temperatu

25、re. It is not the intent of this International Standard to define procedures specifying how to determine sensitivity to moisture. Some materials may have special conditioning requirements. Follow the relevant International Standards. 5 Standard atmosphere Unless otherwise specified, use one of the s

26、ets of conditions given in Table 1 as the standard atmosphere. Table 1 Standard atmospheres Air temperature Relative humidity (RH) Symbol for standard atmosphere C % Remarks 23/50 23 50 Shall be used unless otherwise specified 27/65 27 65 May be used for tropical countries if agreed on by all partie

27、s NOTE The values in Table 1 apply to normal altitudes with an atmospheric pressure between 86 kPa and 106 kPa and an air-circulation velocity u 1 m/s. 6 Classes of standard atmosphere Table 2 gives the different classes of standard atmosphere corresponding to different tolerance levels for the temp

28、erature and relative humidity. The tolerances given in Table 2 apply to the specimen-storage space in a test enclosure or conditioning enclosure. Class 1 cabinets will require more frequent calibration. Follow the manufacturers recommendations for calibration. Cabinets shall be calibrated at least o

29、nce per year.

30、s 1 tolerance for both temperature and relative humidity or class 2 tolerance for both. 7 Standard and ambient temperatures If humidity has no influence or only a negligible influence on the properties being examined, the relative humidity does not have to be controlled. The corresponding environmen

31、ts are designated “temperature 23” and “temperature 27”, respectively. Similarly, if neither temperature nor humidity has any noticeable influence on the properties being examined, neither the temperature nor the relative humidity has to be controlled. In this case, the atmospheric condition is term

32、ed the “ambient temperature”. 8 Procedure 8.1 Conditioning The period of conditioning shall be as stated in the relevant specifications for the material. When the conditioning periods are not stated in the applicable standard, the following shall be adopted: a) unless otherwise specified, a minimum

33、of 88 h for atmospheres 23/50 and 27/65; b) unless otherwise specified, a minimum of 4 h for temperatures of 18 C to 28 C. NOTE 1 The length of time necessary for a plastics material to come to humidity equilibrium is in general much longer than the length of time necessary for it to come to tempera

34、ture equilibrium. NOTE 2 Samples conditioned in accordance with a) may not reach humidity equilibrium. A sufficient equilibrium is reached after conditioning longer than the time t70as defined in ISO 62. t70depends on the square of the thickness. More information about the time needed to reach equil

35、ibrium can be found in Annex A. NOTE 3 For particular tests and for plastics or test specimens that are known to reach temperature and humidity equilibrium either very rapidly or very slowly, a shorter or longer time may be specified for the conditioning period in the appropriate International Stand

36、ard (see Annex A). 8.2 Testing Unless otherwise specified, specimens shall be tested in the same atmosphere or at the same temperature in which they have been conditioned. In all cases, the test shall be carried out immediately after the removal of the specimens from the conditioning enclosure. BS E

37、N ISO 291:20084 Annex A (normative) Attainment of moisture equilibrium by plastics in a conditioning atmosphere The amount of moisture absorbed by a test specimen conditioned in an atmosphere and the rate of moisture absorption or desorption vary significantly depending on the nature and the shape o

38、f the material of which the specimen is made. The conditioning times given in 8.1 may not be satisfactory, especially in the following cases: specimen materials and specimen thicknesses that are known to reach equilibrium with their conditioning atmosphere only after a long period of time (for examp

39、le, certain polyamides and thicknesses over 2 mm, see ISO 62); unfamiliar materials, for which neither the capacity for absorbing moisture nor the time required to reach equilibrium can be estimated beforehand. In these cases, use one of the following procedures: a) Dry the material at an elevated t

40、emperature that will not significantly or permanently change the material (for many materials, a temperature of 50 C 2 C is acceptable). Allow the specimens at least 2 h to cool to the test temperature in a desiccator. State in the test report that the conditioning did not conform to ISO 291 but was

41、 a recommended alternative for special cases. b) Condition the specimens in atmosphere 23/50 until equilibrium has, to all intents and purposes, been reached. A sufficient time is the time t70at which 70 % of the water content at saturation is reached, as defined in ISO 62. If the time t70as defined

42、 in ISO 62 corresponds to a specimen of thickness d0, calculate the conditioning time t70necessary for specimens of other thicknesses using Equation (A.1): 270 7020dt td= (A.1) where t70is the conditioning time necessary; t70is the time taken for moisture equilibrium to be reached, determined in acc

43、ordance with ISO 62, with specimens of thickness d0; d is the thickness of the specimens to be conditioned in accordance with this International Standard. Mention this in the test report. c) Keep the specimens in a circulating-air oven or conditioning enclosure at a prescribed elevated temperature a

44、nd defined humidity (preferred are 50 % RH or 65 % RH) until moisture equilibrium has, to all intents and purposes, been reached (the temperature and relative humidity used shall be agreed upon by all interested parties and shall be included in the test report). Procedure a) has the disadvantage tha

45、t the values of certain properties, in particular mechanical properties, are different in the dry state from those obtained after conditioning in atmosphere 23/50. It is for this reason that this conditioning procedure does not conform to ISO 291 but is a recommended alternative. BS EN ISO 291:20085

46、In the case of procedure b), the following rule of thumb may be useful: equilibrium can be assumed to have been reached if two weighings made at an interval of d 2weeks differ by only 0,1 % (d being the thickness, in millimetres, of the specimen). Procedure c) is used when the moisture diffusion cha

47、racteristics of the polymer are known and can be used to determine appropriate exposure periods and conditions. The specimens shall be kept in the oven or conditioning enclosure until they are, to all intents and purposes, in a state of moisture equilibrium. This may be assumed to be the case when t

48、he average moisture content of the material changes by less than 0,01 % during a conditioning period of at least 1 day, determined by loss in mass as specified in ISO 62. If the moisture diffusion coefficient D is known, the time necessary for moisture equilibrium to effectively be reached is determ

49、ined using Equation (A.2) or taken as 1 day, whichever is the longer. 2702dtD=(A.2) where t70is the time taken for moisture equilibrium to effectively be reached (see ISO 62); d is the specimen thickness, in millimetres (mm); D is the moisture diffusion coefficient, in mm2/s.
