(2) immersion test Imerte whole surfaces of a test piece in various kinds of lig- ‘ids, and measure the changes in ite dimensions, mass, volume, surface area, fand such mechanical properties as tensile strength, observed before and after the immersion, This is called the complete immersion test, (2) one surface immersion test Immerse only one surface ofa test pice in various kinds of liquids, and measure the mase change per unit surface area ofthe test ieee. 8. Type of test The immersion test of vuleanized rubber is classified into the fol- Towing two types. (2) Immersion test (2) One surface immersion test2 K6258:1098 4 Immersion test, 4.1 Purpose This test shall be carried out to measure the changes in dimensions, ‘mass, volume, surface area and the change in mechanical properties such as tensile strength and the like before and after immersion of whole test piece of the vulea nized rubber to the various types of liquids. 42 Test apparatus Test apparatus is composed of a test container for immer sion, balance, thickness gauge, dimension-mearuring device, end various types of testers for measuring mechanical properties, 4.2.1 Test container Test container shall be determined by the temperature of ‘immersion and the volatility of the test liguid. In the case of that the temperature of immersion is considerably lower than the boiling point of the test liqid, a stop pered glass container ora glass test tube(’) shall be weed. When the temperature of {immersion is near the boiling point of the test liquid, a glass container or a glass test tube equipped with a reflux condenser or other suitable apparatus fer minimiz ing evaporation ofthe test liquid shall be used. The size of the test container shall ‘be large enough to immerse completely the test piece when itis immersed in a specified ‘volume of the test liquid, and simultaneously the whole surfaces of the test piece shall be freely without any restraint exposed to the test liquid Note (1) Ifthe test container does not resct or mix with test lig ‘taminate the liquid, a metal container may be used, 4.2.2 Balance Balance shall be sensitive enough to weigh accurately the mass of he test piece to the nearest 1 mg Informative reference : Weight originally has the unit of foree, but usually a belance is calibrated with weights and sealed with ‘mass. ‘The weight ofthe test piece in ai, before and after immersion or its apparent weight in water, whith ‘is measured in this Standard, shall be regarded as hhaving the unit (mg) of mass. 42.8 Thickness gauge Thickness gauge is used to measure the thickness of the ‘teat piece when measuring the change in dimension ofa test piece. Thickness gauge is composed ofa dial gauge installed on a flat measuring base. The minimum gradvation of the dis] gauge shall be 0.01 mm. ‘The plunger of a dial gauge has a circular flat ‘contact surface, measuring about 100 mm* area, which is rectangular to the plunger and parallel with the measuring bese. The dial gauge can apply pressure about 2kPa (0.2 gmm) on the test piece, 4.2.4 Dimension-measuring device Dimension-measuring device is used to mes: sure the length, width, and diagonal of the test piece, when measuring the changes in dimension or surface-ares of a test piece. The device has the scale to she nearest, 0.01 mm, and is preferahly equipped with a mechanism capable of measuring the test piece without touching the object like optical instrument, 43. Test piece 43.1 Shape and dimensions of test pi piece shall be as follows 1e The shape and dimensions of atest3 1K 6258:1998 (2). Test piece for testing changes in mass and volume, and extract The tet piece for testing the changes in mass and volume, and the mass of extract shall be of Lem? to 3em? in volume, and (2.00.2) mm in thickness(®). Suitably shaped test piece cut from sheet or product may be used. [Note (8) When the product has 1.8 mm or less in thickness, the test piece cut from the product may be used, but when it has over 22 mm in thick ness it shall be reduced to (2.00.2) mm in thieknese. In immersion tests under the condition where the maximum absorp- tion is not reached, the thickness talerance of (2.001) mm shall be ‘used as the change in volume during the early stages of immersion is inversely proportional to the thickness of the test piece. (2) ‘Test piece for testing change in dimension The test piece for testing the change in dimension measures 20 mm in width and 50 mm in length. Its thick- hess is uniform and preferably (2.00.2) mm(). The side fave of the test piece shal be clearly cut, and it be rectangular to upper face and bottom face. When the grain direction on the test pice is knoven, test piece must be sampled so as ‘to make its lengthways be parallel to the grain direction, (8) ‘Test piece for testing change in surface-area The test piece for testing change in surface-ares shall be of rhombic shaped, measuring @.0:0.2) mm in ‘thickness and about & mm in Tength of side face. ‘The side face ofthe test piece shall be clearly cut, and it be rectangular to upper face and bettom face. The test piece can be obtained by cutting two times at about right angle using @ cutter having 2 parallel cutting edges with a suitable distance When cutting off from product, it ia conveniont to use a thinner test plese because it can reach the maximum absorption within a shorter duration, but the result eannot be compared with that abtained by test plese having the specified thickness. ‘The smaller test piece gives inferior accuracy of teat results, (A) Test piece for tensile test The test piece for tonsil test shell be the dumb. bell type test piece or ring type test piece specified in subclause 4.1 of JIS K 6251, (5) Test piece for testing change in hardness test The test piece for testing change in hardness test shall be each one specified in clauses 4 and 5 of JIS K 6253. The test piece, having smooth and parallel two faces and measuring (2.00.2) mm in thickness, may be used, but in ease of the micro test for inter- national rubber hardness degree, the test piece with at least 8mm square shall be used, When the normal test for international rubber hardness degree is car ried out, wo piled-up test piece may be used, but in this case, the result shall be expressed as the apparent value. In case of hardness test by type A durom- eter, pile up 3 test pieces to make its thickness 6mm or more, and then carry ‘out measurement. 4.3.2 Sampling and preparation of test piece Sample and prepare test piece According ta subelause 5.5 of JIS K 6250, and principally prepare the test piece from plate type sample. 4.3.8 Number of test pieces For the measurement of changes in mass and va: lume, mast of extract, changes in surface-area and dimensions, the number of test pieces is respectively 8. For tensile test, it is at least 8, and for hardness test it ie4 6258:1995 43.4 Selection of test ‘ters or bubbles, or has flavis, se Don’t use the test piece which includes alien mat 44. Test liquid The selection of the test liquid depends on the purpose of test. ‘When information is required on the probable service behaviour of vuleenized rub- bber in contact with « particular liquid, this liquid should preferably te used for immersion test. In this case, however, because this liquid (commercial liquid) is not always constant in composition, and the test should, therefore, inelude a contol material of known change in volume characteristics, thus abnormal results due to unsuspected ‘variations in the commercial liquid will be made apparent. Tt is essential to store a bulk volume of this liquid for a particular series of tests, ‘The ligud (commercial liquid) does not necessarily have constant composition, there~ fore in order to make rating or quality control of vuleanized rubber, the liquid for test whose composition is known shall be used. Informative reference: The liquid with poisonous property, corrosiveness, and inflammebility shall be handled with paying suitable preventive eounterplane for safety. When handling the liguid emitting smoke or vapor, work in a draft. Cor- rosive liquid shall be kept from contacting with human body or clothing. Inflammable liquid shall be stored at the spot sufficiently apart from an ignition source. 4.4.1 Fuel oll for test The fuel oll for test shall be as specified one in Table 1 and Table 2 ‘Table 1 Fuel oil for test Foal fr tet Consent Content © ee ee) B | Bacaeimetipentane Gnosane) | 70 ‘Tole E © [axwimein7pestane iwocane | #0 D | 2atarimathyipentane Ganoaane) | 6 Tole o Tolvene 700 ‘Sirsigh chain pain Guo | 80 Timethyinepthatene 2 Informative reference 1 Fuel ol fr test B, C and D ean bbe mainly used as the substi- tute of gasoline for automobiles. 2 Fuel ol for test F can be used tas the substitute of fuel oil for diesel engine, kerosine for home nse, and gas ol5 1K 6258:1993 ‘Table 2 Alcohol-added fuel oil for test Wesbatadaed Connata Contant © fetal T | Bacsrimatiipatane Gaon) » Disobtrene 6 hans! 5 P| Saarietivipentane Genetane) | 2835) Bauer o ‘Toluene 22s | sds cof Diabutlene 1268 f alm acdes en feat Mathanal 3 | zccimetylpetaneUsootane) 6 ‘Tehuone © Mathenl 3 a | 2eeimetyipentane (noone) as ‘Teluene a5 Methanol 18 Informative reference: Aleohol-added fuel ol for test can be tated as the substitute of aleohol-added {gasoline for automobiles 44.2 Lubricating oll for test The lubricating oil for test shall not contain addi- tives other than pour-point depressant by about 0.1%.

In a laboratory kept under standard condition, mes- sure the mass of the test piece to the nearest 1 mg in air (ras m:). ‘Next, ‘measure its mass in distilled water (mass m:) [see Note (*)n 46.3]. While carrying out this measuring, be careful not to let bubbles sick on the test pieee(®). When the density of the test piece is less than 1 gem, fx a suit. fable sinker to the test piece to make it immerse completely in the water, land measure ite mass (m:) In this case, measure the mass ofthe sinker in water (rs). Then, take it out of water, and wipe off water gently with filter paper or gauze, Note (9) In ender to semuve auch bubbles attaching on a 2st piece, permissible to add a very small amount of surfactant in dist water. ()_ Prepare liquid for test whose volume is at least 15 times the whole volume ‘ofthe test pieces and sufficient to keep the test pieces completely immersed, fand place the test pieces and the test liquid in the glass eoatainer for test With care not to let them touch each other. When there is no reflux con- denser, stopper the test container, The test liquid shall be kept at the specified temperature for immersion. While the test piece is being immersed, shield from sunlight. In the same container, the test pieces of the eame voleanizate shall be put in. When the density of « test piece is emaller than that of test liqui adopt a euit- fable measure to let it immersed completely in the liquid. ‘After immersion process was over, it is preferable to make the tast piece immersed in the same type test liquid, newly prepared, for (10 to 80) min ‘under the standard condition in the laboratory, and then to allow it to coo. ‘Then, take off surplus test liquid staying on the surface of te test piece). Note (°) The method to remove surplus test liquid staying on the surface ofthe test piece depends on the property of the liquid. In case of appreciably volatile isooctane or toluene, take it oat from the lig uid, and wipe gently with filter paper or gauze to remove the surplus liquid. When liquid is difficult to remove owing thigh viscosity ‘and low volatility, soak the test piece in suitable volatile liquid ‘as methanol or petroleum ether, take out swiftly and wipe gen- tly it with Slter paper or gauze8 6258:1995 (2) Measurement of change in dim ® (©) Under the standard condition ina laboratory, immediately measure the mass of the test piece to the nearest Img in air (mass m,). Then measure its ‘mass in distilled water to the nearest 1 mg (mass ma). If test liquid has a high volatility in room temperature, an evaporation curve of the test piece shall be plotted. The plot of mass versus square root of time shows a straight line. On this line, taking a3 zero time when the test piece is taken out of the liquid or the surplus liquid ie removed, the mass immediately after im- rmersion ean be obtained by extrapolation (mass m,). This procedures can rasily be carried out by using an automatic balance. Prior to weighing the ‘mass in distilled water, soak the test piece in test liquid for (80 to 60) min Instead of plotting an evaporation curve, a weighing bottle may be used. ‘After removing surplus liquid, the procedures to closely stopper the weigh: ‘ng bottle shall be earried out within 80 s. ‘When obtaining change in mass, the measurement of mass in distilled ‘water (ma, m,) and mass of sinker in distilled water (m) is omitted. ‘When successively immersion testis carried out, return immediately the test piece into the test liquid, and earry out the procedure for test jons (length, width, and thickness) (a) Under the standard condition of laboratory, measure the length (3) and ‘width (b0 of the test piece before immersion with a dimension measuring evice specified in 4.2.4, to the nearest 0.5 mm. ‘Measure the thickness (i) ofthe tet piece with a thickness gauze specified in 42.8 ‘Measure length along the center line of upper and bottom surfaces of the test piece, and calculate their average. Measure width at 4 points of upper and bottom surfaces which are near end of the test piece, and calcu- late their average. Measure thickness at 4 different pointe ofthe test piece, ‘and average their value. (b) Next, immerse it according to the method specified in (1) (). (6) After immersion, under the standard condition of laboratory, measure length (©, width () and thickness () ofthe est piece, according tothe same method ‘as that before immersion, When test liquid has appreciable volatility at room temperature, make ‘measurement within one min from removing surplus liquid after immer- sion. When successively immersion testis carried out, return immediately ‘the test piece into the test liquid, and earry out the procedure for test. Measurement of change in surface-area (a) Under the standard condition of laboratory, measure the length of diago- nals (s,s) of the test piece before immersion with a dimension-meesuring device specified in 4.2.4, to the nearest 0.01 mm, (b) Next immerse it according to the method specified in (1) (b).@ 6 8 1 6258:1998, (© After immersion, under the standard condition of laboratory, measure the length of diagonals (ls, In of the test piece, according to the same method fas that before immersion. In ease of using an optical dimension-measur ing device, instead of taking out the tast piece from test liquid, messure- ‘ment may be carried out a itis placed in a glass container. When successively ‘immersion tet is carried out, return immediately the test piece into the test liquid, and carry out the procedure for test. Mass measurement of extract Mass measurement of extract may be applied to the high volatile test liquid (boiling point: 110°C or lower) which has the same level as fuel oil shown in Table 1. The mass measurement of extract is Carried out using the test piece or test liuid by which the changes in mass and volume have been measured as shown in (1. ‘There are 2 types of methods to test it. (a) Method by dried test piece Dry in vacuum the test pieze, whose mass thas been measured after immersion, at about 40°C under absolute pres sure of about 20 kPa (0.2 kgflem) until it gets constant mass (1 mg oF less nace difference between successive weighings at 30 min intervals). After drying, meacure the mass of the test piece (ms) to the nearest 1 mg. (b) Method by evaporating test liquid Transfer the test liquid which has ‘been used for immersion of test piece into a suitable vessel whose mass bhas been measured. ‘Then, wash the test piece with 25 mi of the same type tect liquid that was newly prepared. Add the test liquid used for washing into the vessel in which the test liquid for immersion has been put, evapo rate the test liquid in the vessel at about 40°C, and dry in vacuum under abeclute pressure of about 20 kPa (0.2 kgflem*) until it gets constant mass (img or less mass difference between successive weighings at 30 min in- tervals), Weigh the mass of vessel after drying, and measure the mass of fextract. To confirm the solid content in tes liquid, carry cut a blank test With using the test liquid whose volume is the same as ths total used for ‘immersion test and washing. ‘Measurement of chang: tensile stress in tensile strength, elongation at break and (a) Measure the sectional area of a test piece according to JIS K 6251.
