9、nmental Conditions. As specified for the relevant test in paragraph 4.3.4.2.2 Test Conditions. Deviations from the requirements of this standard shall have been agreed upon. Suchrequirements shall be specified on component drawings, test certificates, reports, etc.4.3 Instructions.4.3.1 ABS (Glacial

10、 Acetic Acid).4.3.1.1 Test Instructions.a Ensure that the part is completely dry prior to submerging in acid.b The part shall be dipped 30 s at (+24 3) C in acetic acid.c After dipping, the part shall be rinsed and dried at (+24 3) C (room temperature).d The part shall be evaluated for surface stres

11、s (see paragraph 4.3.1.2, item a) and hardening (seeparagraph 4.3.1.2 item b).e The dried part shall be dipped 2 minutes at (+24 3) C in the acetic acid again.f Afterwards, the part shall be rinsed and dried at room temperature again.g The part shall again be evaluated for internal stress (see parag

12、raph 4.3.1.2, item c).4.3.1.2 Evaluation.a Whitening of the surface (dense patterns) can be an indication of surface stress. The more dense thepattern, the higher the stress (see Note 1).b Hardening of the surface is indicated by discoloration. Proper molding surfaces show a uniform whitesurface. Po

13、or molding surfaces show white areas and dark, shiny areas on the same part, indicatingnonuniform distribution of the butadiene over the molding surface (see Note 2).c Cracks in the plastic material are an indication of very high stress levels in the part. The severity of thecracking indicates the s

14、everity of the stress.Note 1: The use of slightly colored grey resins often provides a greater degree of contrast in examination.Note 2: Weld lines, areas new gates and surfaces at the end of flow are typically more prone to stress.4.3.2 Test Procedure for ABS/PC (Organic Dye).4.3.2.1 Test Solution.

15、 The test solution is made up consisting of Isopropanol 750 ml/l, Acetone 250 ml/l andan organic compatible red dye 0.08 g/l.4.3.2.2 Test Instructions.a Immerse the part in the red dye solution for the appropriate amount of time (typically (5 to 10) minutes,dependent on material).b Immediately rinse

16、 part in running water to remove excess dye, and blow part dry using cool air.c Evaluate the part for surface stress (see paragraph 4.3.2.3).4.2.3 Evaluation.a Pink or reddish coloration variations are an indication of surface stress.b If the color change is minimal, the part may not be etched or th

17、e test material may require changing.c If the variation in color change across the surface of the component is extensive, the degree of etchingmay also mirror this change. The subsequent adhesion of the electrodeposit may be compromised due tothe variation in stress of the base material and its abil

18、ity to be evenly etched.d Dyes tend to penetrate faster in areas of lower stress. This test may also indicate that stress levels are sohigh that stratification of the resin has occurred. And, poor adhesion and potential delamination may result.5 Data5.1 Calculations. Not applicable.5.2 Interpretatio

19、n of Results. If any stress is detected by stress test for ABS or ABS/PC tooling and moldingparameter changes should be made to eliminate as best possible any surface or internal stresses in the partprior to plating.Copyright General Motors Company Provided by IHS under license with General Motors C
