In the test conducted prior to conditioning, the intial com- pressive stress shall be 30 N/mmé: 45 Compressive strength To determine the compressive stress, dyes, proceed as described in DIN 52918 by subjecting the specimen to a compressive stress of 50 N/mm over a period of 16 hours at 175°C. 46 Resistance to chemicals Determine the resistance to chemicals as specified in DIN 28090-3, taking into account that the test described has been designed as a type test, not an acceptance test.5 Material 51 Composition Compressed fibre gasket materials (FA) are composite materials made from elastomer binders or amixture of elas- tomer binders which are reinforced by the inclusion of fibres, and fillers, NOTE: Usually, the materialis based on a composi- tion of 10 to 30 % binder, 5 to 50 % fibres, and 10 10 Page 3 DIN 2091-2: 1996-08 ‘The designation system set out in subclause 5.2 shall be referred to whan supplying or ordering materialsintine with this standard (specitying the percentage by mass of the ‘main fre and binder components} 5.2. Designation system ‘The designation is based on the letter symbol FA (for com- pressed fibres), followed by the symbols given in table 2 85 % fillers.
