Foreword

This Standard adopted ASTM D5510.1994 (2001) " Standard Practice for Heat Aging of Oxidatively Degradable Plastics" (English edition). This Standard was redrafted based on ASTM D5510.1994 (2001). Considering China's national conditions, this Standard has made some changes when using ASTM D5510.1994 (2001). The relevant technical differences have been incorporated into the main text and marked with a single vertical line in the margins of the clauses they refer to. A list of these technical differences and their reasons is given in Annex A for reference. For ease of use, the following editorial changes have been made to ASTM D5510.1994 (2001). a) changed "ASTM Standard" to "this Standard"; b) deleted the standard description of ASTM D5510.1994 (2001); c) deleted the publication notes of ASTM D5510.1994 (2001); d) deleted the reference standard notes of ASTM D5510.1994 (2001); e) added the foreword of this Standard; f) in normative references, used corresponding national standards or international standards to replace the ASTM standards; g) added Annex A. This Standard replaces GB/T 7141-1992 " Plastics-Methods of exposure to thermal air". Compared with GB/T 7141-1992, the main differences in this Standard are as follows. - There is only one type of heat aging test box method in GB/T 7121-1992, that is, the forced ventilating air heat aging test box. However, this Standard provides two heat aging test box methods, that is, gravity convection heat aging test chamber and forced ventilation heat aging test chamber. These two kinds of heat aging test chambers are respectively suitable for specimens with different nominal thicknesses; - This Standard puts forward more requirements for the selection of test cycle for plastic heat aging test; - In addition to providing test methods and results comparison methods for each material at a single temperature during each exposure period, this Standard also provides test methods and results comparison methods for exposure tests for each material under a range of temperatures. The test results can be used for the basic assessment of the temperature stability of the material or the assessment of the maximum expected service life at a set temperature. Annex A of this Standard is informative. This Standard was proposed by China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Association. This Standard shall be under the jurisdiction of Subcommittee on Aging Methods of National Technical Committee on Plastics of Standardization Administration of China. The drafting organizations of this Standard. Guangzhou Synthetic Materials Research Institute Co., Ltd., Wuxi Jinhua Test Equipment Co., Ltd., Beijing Tianjia Technology Co., Ltd.

1 Scope

1.1 This Standard specifies the exposure conditions when plastics are only exposed to hot air at different temperatures for a long time. This Standard only specifies the method of heat exposure, but does not specify the test method or specimen. The influence of heat on any properties of plastics can be determined by selecting suitable test methods and specimens. This Standard recommends the use of ASTM D3826 standard to determine the end point of embrittlement. The end point of embrittlement means that at an initial strain rate of 0.1 mm/min, when 75% of the tested specimens have an elongation at break of 5% or less, the material reaches its end point of embrittlement. 1.2 This Standard gives guidelines for comparing the heat aging properties of materials. These properties are measured by changes in certain related properties (that is, the embrittlement properties are measured by the decrease in elongation). This Standard applies to the evaluation of plastics that are easily oxidized during use. 1.3 The results obtained in accordance with this Standard are affected by the type of heat aging test chamber used. The user can choose one of two methods to conduct heat aging test chamber exposure. The results based on these two methods shall not be confused with each other. 1.3.1 Method A. Gravity convection heat aging test box – It is recommended for thin specimens with a nominal thickness of not more than 0.25mm. 1.3.2 Method B. Forced ventilation heat aging test chamber – It is recommended for specimens with a nominal thickness greater than 0.25mm. 1.4 This Standard introduces methods to compare the heat aging properties of materials at a single temperature. This Standard also describes the method for determining the heat aging properties of materials at a series of temperatures, so as to estimate the time required for the material to change its properties at a lower temperature. This Standard does not predict the heat aging performance when factors such as stress, environment, temperature and time control failure interact. 1.5 This Standard does not involve relevant safety instructions. Even if there is, it is only related to its application. It is the responsibility of users of this Standard to establish applicable safety and health regulations and to determine applicable regulatory limits before use. NOTE. There is no ISO standard equivalent to this Standard.

2 Normative references

The following documents contain the provisions which, through reference in this Standard, become the provisions of this Standard. For dated references, their subsequent amendments (excluding corrigendum) or revisions do not apply to this Standard. However, the parties who enter into agreement based on this Standard are encouraged to investigate whether the latest versions of these documents are applicable. For undated reference documents, the latest versions apply to this Standard. GB/T 2035, Terms and definitions for plastics (GB/T 2035-2008, ISO 472.1999, IDT) GB/T 2918, Plastics - Standard atmospheres for conditioning and testing (GB/T 2918-1998 idt ISO 291.1997) GB/T 7142, Determination of time-temperature limits of plastics after exposure to prolonged action of heat (GB/T 7142-2002, ISO 2578.1993, MOD)

3 Terms and definitions

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions defined in GB/T 2035 apply.

4 Meaning and application

4.1 Since the correlation between the results obtained according to this Standard and the actual use environment has not been determined, these results are only used for comparison and rating. 4.3 Under normal circumstances, short-term exposure of plastics to high temperatures will release volatile substances such as moisture, solvents or plasticizers; reduce molding stress; improve the curing of thermosetting plastics; increase crystallinity; and make the color change of plasticizer or colorant or both. Generally, further shrinkage will occur as volatiles decrease or further polymerization reaction occurs. 4.4 Certain plastics, such as PVC, may become brittle due to loss of plasticizers or breakage of polymer molecular chains. Polypropylene and its copolymers tend to become very brittle when the molecules are degraded. On the other hand, polyethylene becomes soft before the tensile strength and elongation decrease and become brittle. 4.7 The exposure effect of the sample may be significantly different. Especially when exposed for a long time, the error will accumulate over time. Factors affecting data reproducibility include the degree of temperature control in the heat aging test box, the humidity of the heat aging test box, the air flow rate on the surface of the sample, and the exposure period. In the long-term test, some materials are easily degraded due to the influence of humidity. For example, hydrolysis-sensitive materials (i.e., hydrolysis-degradable plastics) will degrade due to moisture during long-term thermal tests. 4.9 In fact, there may be multiple temperature values. Each failure criterion corresponds to a temperature value. Therefore, to ensure the validity of the temperature value in any application, the heat aging procedure must be exactly the same as the intended exposure conditions of the final product. If the final use of the material is not evaluated by the aging procedure, then the resulting temperature index is not suitable for this application of the material. 4.10 In some cases, the material can be exposed to a temperature for a specific period, followed by exposure to another temperature for a specific period. This Standard is suitable for these applications. After getting the thermal aging curve of the first temperature, the heat aging curve at the second temperature can be obtained by exposing the sample after exposure to the first temperature. 4.11 When an Arrhenius curve or equation based on test data at a series of temperatures is used to estimate the time to reach a specified performance change at a lower temperature, there may be a very large error. The estimated time to reach the specified performance change or failure shall always be within the 95% confidence interval.

5 Equipment

5.1 Environmental conditions The environmental conditions of the equipment shall provide environmental state adjustment. 5.2 Heat aging test chamber 5.3 Specimen holder The design of the specimen holder shall ensure the air circulation around the specimen. 5.4 Test equipment It is used to determine the selected performance or multiple performances according to the corresponding national standards.

6 Specimens

6.1 The number and type of specimens required shall meet the requirements of the corresponding national standards for testing specific properties. 6.2 The thickness of the specimen shall be equivalent to but not greater than the minimum thickness in the intended application. 6.3 The method of making the specimen shall be the same as that used in the intended application. 6.4 All test specimens for a series of temperatures shall be the same batch.

7 State adjustment

7.1 According to the regulations of GB/T 2918, the initial test is carried out in a standard laboratory environment. The specimen shall be adjusted according to the requirements of the performance test method specified by the national standard.

8 Test steps

8.1 Choose Method A or B according to the applicable heat aging test chamber type in item 5.2. 8.2 When testing at a single temperature, all materials shall be exposed simultaneously in the same device. The number of parallel specimens for each material in each exposure period shall be enough, so as to ensure that the test results used to characterize material properties can be compared with analysis of variance or similar statistical data analysis methods. 8.3 When performing a series of tests at temperatures, in order to determine the relationship between the specified performance change and temperature, a minimum of four temperatures shall be used. It is recommended to select the exposure temperature according to the following methods. 8.4 Test the selected properties of a set of non-exposed specimens according to applicable test methods, including conditioning. 8.5 Mount the specimen on the specimen holder. Put the specimen holder in the heat aging test box to ensure that both sides of the specimen are exposed to the airflow. In order to minimize the influence of temperature changes in the heat aging test chamber, it is recommended to periodically adjust the position of the specimen or specimen holder.

9 Result calculation

9.1 When materials are compared at a single temperature, analysis of variance shall be used to compare the average of the measured performance data for each material at each exposure time. Use each group of parallel determination results for each material to be compared for analysis of variance. It is recommended to use an F statistic with a 95% confidence level to determine the validity of the results of the analysis of variance. 9.2 When comparing materials at a range of different temperatures, it shall use the following methods to analyze the data. Estimate the exposure time required to reach a predetermined level of performance change at a lower temperature. This time can be used for the basic assessment of the temperature stability of the material, or as an estimate of the maximum expected service life at the selected temperature. ......
