2、g in this standard supercedes applicable laws and regulations. Note: In the event of conflict between the English and domestic language, the English language shall take precedence. 1.1 Purpose. This standard is an alternative procedure to ISO 62 or ISO 15512 to determine the moisture (water) content

3、 of plastic components and molding compounds. In case of dispute, the responsible GM Material Engineer defines which procedure to use. 1.2 Foreword. Not applicable. 1.3 Applicability. It is particularly applicable to polyamide (except polyamide 11 and 12) components, which in order to attain their o

4、ptimum performance characteristics at +23 5 C and 50 6% relative humidity (RH) must have moisture content of 2% minimum in their finished form. The absorption of water affects the physical properties of polyamide (except polyamide 11 and 12). After manufacture, therefore, components shall be conditi

5、oned by suitable means (i.e., immersion in hot water) such that the moisture content thus attained approximates to that necessary to achieve optimum properties and dimensional stability during normal service and assembly conditions. 1.4 Definition of Moisture Content. Moisture content as determined

6、by this test procedure shall be defined as the mass loss of a test piece resulting from heating for 48 hours at +105 C. The test procedure has an accuracy of 0.2%. 2 References Note: Only the latest approved standards are applicable unless otherwise specified. 2.1 External Standards/Specifications.

For initial sample approval and arbitration purposes at least three test pieces, and for routine quality contro

11、l at least one test piece shall be tested. For tests on granules care shall be taken that test pieces are truly representative of the material under test. 4.2 Conditions. 4.2.1 Environmental Conditions. Tests shall be conducted on test pieces in the as received condition (i.e., no special preconditi

Such requirements shall be specified on component drawings, test certificates, reports, etc. 4.3 Instructions. 4.3.1 Summary of Test Method. The test sample is weighed, dried and weighed a

14、gain. From the weight difference the moisture content is calculated. Note: For granules it is recommended that portions no smaller than 5 g in weight be tested in previously dried and weighed crucibles. 4.3.2 The test pieces shall be weighed to the nearest 0.5 mg. 4.3.3 The test pieces shall be plac

15、ed in the oven at +105 3 C for 48 2 hours. 4.3.4 After removal from the oven, the test pieces shall be allowed to cool in a desiccator for 30 5 minutes at +23 5 C, and then reweighed. 5 Data 5.1 Calculations. The moisture (water) content shall be calculated as follows: 100*1m2m1mW in % by mass Where

16、: W = moisture (water) content in % m1 = mass of test piece as received in grams m2 = mass of test piece after heating in grams 5.2 Interpretation of Results. Not applicable. 5.3 Test Documentation. 5.3.1 With reference to this test standard, the results of the measurements shall be presented in a t

17、est report. The moisture (water) content shall be expressed as the arithmetical average of multiple tests or as the individual result for single tests, in percent rounded to the nearest 0.1%. 6 Safety This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. This standard does not pr
