SCOPE The material defined by this specification is a thermoplastic polyolefinic elastomer. 2. APPLICATION WSS-M4D979-B2 This specification wa

3、s released originally for unpainted airbag covers with high sun exposure such as steering wheel/side airbag covers. Parts produced from materials of the specification must also meet the appropriate airbag System Design Specification (SDS) WSS-M4D979-B3 This specification was released originally to b

4、e used for airbag covers with low sun exposure such as knee airbag covers. Parts produced from materials of the specification must also meet the appropriate airbag System Design Specification (SDS) LIMITATIONS These materials should not be used for painted applications. 3. REQUIREMENTS 3.1 APPROVED

5、SOURCES This specification requires the use of approved sources. Only the sources identified on the Ford Approved Source List (ASL) can be used when this specification is listed on the drawing, CAD file, or other documents. The list of approved sources is located within Ford at or available externa

6、lly through a Ford Materials Engineer. Approval of new sources requires the completion of the latest version of the FMD template. Data should be submitted at the time as the specification data package. Only one FMD package is required per trade name approved, FMD is not required for each manufacturi

7、ng site. FMD is required for new site approvals that do not have an extisting FMD record. 3.2 CONDITIONING AND TEST CONDITIONS All test values are based on material conditioned for not less than 24 h prior to testing in a controlled environment of 23 +/- 2 C and 50 +/- 5% relative humidity. Testing

8、of the material should occur in the conditioning environment or soon after removal. 3.3 INFRARED SPECTROPHOTOMETRY AND/OR THERMAL ANALYSIS ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATION WSS-M4D979-B2/B3 Copyright 2017, Ford Global Technologies, LLC Page 2 of 8 IR spectra and thermograms from initial material ap

9、proval shall constitute the reference standard and shall be kept on file at the designated material laboratory. The material supplier shall ensure that all future material supplied to the specification shall produce IR spectra and thermograms that correspond to the reference standard when tested und

10、er the same conditions. 3.4 STANDARD REQUIREMENTS FOR PRODUCTION MATERIALS 3.4.1 Many 4D resin specifications prior to 2011, identified certain requirements with the symbol (s), which indicated that the mean and +/- 3 sigma values were to be reported. The specification minimum, maximum or range was

11、established using 3 sigma data. For 2011 and beyond, refer to Table 1 for number of samples required for each test. 3.4.2 This specification is based on virgin material and does not allow the addition of recycled content (PIR/PCR). 3.4.3 The use of regrind is permitted, for economic / environmental

12、reasons. Part manufacturers using this specification must complete DV and PV testing with the allowable amount of regrind and the maximum allowable regrind content must be specified on the engineering drawing. Any changes to what is specified on the drawing (no specific amount implies zero regrind)

13、must be approved by Materials and PD Engineering through the formal Ford Motor Company process (SREA) or Engineering Notice. 3.4.5 Materials requiring High Strain Rate, Creep or fiber oriented Tensile Modulus may be required to test to the requirements of WSS-M99D68-A1/Latest, Thermoplastic Property
