2、3 1 Scope Note: Nothing 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 test method shall be used to determine the effects of humidity aging on cellula

3、r materials. The test attempts, by the use of water vapor at elevated temperature, to simulate the naturally occurring effects of oxidation and hydrolysis. Deterioration of the material is observed by measurements of physical properties prior to and after aging. 1.2 Foreword. Not applicable. 1.3 App

4、licability. Cellular materials. 2 References Note: Only the latest approved standards are applicable unless otherwise specified. 2.1 External Standards/Specifications.

5、. 3.2 Equipment. 3.2.1 A steam autoclave or similar vessel capable of maintaining the required temperature to within 1 C and of withstanding pressures up to 1.5 bar (150 kPa) above atmospheric pressure (i.e., 2.5 bar absolute). The test vessel shall be equipped with means of venting at completion of

6、 the test so as to prevent undue frothing of water when the vessel is opened. 3.2.2 Alternatively, for aging at temperatures below +100 C: 3.2.2.1 A glass vessel with a suitable closure. 3.2.2.2 A water bath or drying oven for heating the vessel, capable of maintaining the required tem-perature to w

7、ithin 1 C, may be used. 3.2.3 During the test, sample supports shall be used that prevent test pieces from coming into contact with one another, the sides of the vessel or the water. Minimal contact with the supports shall also be ensured. No additional pressure on the test pieces is permissible. 3.

8、2.4 Test equipment for performance of the appropriate physical property. 3.3 Test Vehicle/Test Piece. Test pieces shall comply with the appropriate requirements for the test procedure to which physical property tests are to be conducted (i.e., tensile strength, compression set, etc.) 3.4 Test Time.

13、water shall be added to the test vessel dependent upon its volume, the support rack inserted and test pieces placed on the rack (Paragraph 3.2.3). 4.3.2.3 The vessel shall be tightly closed and subjected to the test conditions specified (see Section 4.3.2). Timing shall commence when the air in the

14、vessel has been replaced by water vapor or steam (i.e., when steam is issuing from the autoclave and the valve is closed). 4.3.2.4 After the appropriate test period (see Table 1), the test vessel shall be vented and opened and the test pieces removed within 1 minute. At that time, determine the appr

15、opriate physical properties after humidity aging (A1), including conditioning, according to the appropriate test procedure. 5 Data 5.1 Calculations. The percentage change in property after humidity aging (exception, see Paragraph 5.3.1) is calculated as follows: 100A AAC h a n g e 0 01 in percent (%

16、) Where: A0 = Value (arithmetic average) of property prior to humidity aging (units dependent on test) A1 = Value (individual values and arithmetic average) of property after humidity aging (units the same as A0) Note: Except values for compression, load deflection to ISO 3386-1 CV40 +23 C, 50% rela

17、tive humidity since test prior to and after humidity aging shall be performed on the same test piece. 5.2 Interpretation of Results. Not applicable. 5.3 Test Documentation. 5.3.1 For compression, set tests to ISO 1856 - A after humidity aging. Results shall be recorded only as individual and arithme

18、tic average values and, deviating from Paragraph 5.1, not as percentage change. 5.3.2 Only results on test pieces of the same dimension can be compared to each other. 5.3.3 Testing results as described in Section 5 shall be presented in a test report to the involved GM Engineer. 6 Safety This standa
