Determination of compression modulus at room temperature ‘To determine the compression modulus at room tempera- ture, exsw, proceed as described in subclause 9.21 of DIN 286802 applying a preload of 1,0 N/mm? and sub- Jecting the gasket material to a compressive stress of 35 N/mm, 42 Determination of compression modulus at elevated temperature To determine the compression modulus at elevated tam- perature, eww, after loading for 16 hours at 300°C, pro- ceed as described in subclause 922 of DIN28090-2, subjecting th gasket material to a compressive stress of 50 N/mr 43° Recovery characteristic For the determination of recovery, R, see subclause 92.2 ‘of DIN 28090-2. 4.4 Determination of leak rate For the determination of leak rate, A, see clause 10 of DIN 2800-2. Testing istobe carried outatroom temperature, both before and after conditioning the specimen gasket for 48 hours at 300°C. In the test conducted prior to conditioning, the inital corn- pressive stress shall be 30 N/mm" 45 Compressive strength To determine the compressive stress, dyeys, 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 300°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 Exfoliated graphite-based gasket shest materials are based on graphite (GR) and may include an insert.
