1、Designation:D95521Standard Test Method ofMeasuring Shrinkage from Mold Dimensions ofThermoplastics1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D955;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A n
2、umber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope*1.1 This test method is intended to measure shrinkage from
3、mold cavity to molded dimensions of thermoplastics whenmolded by compression or injection processes with specifiedprocess conditions.1.2 This test method covers shrinkage measurements at 24and 48 hours.1.3 This method will give comparable data based on stan-dard specimens and can not predict absolut
4、e values in actualmolded parts with varying flow paths,wall thicknesses,pres-sure and temperature gradients and process conditions.Differ-ences in mold shrinkage may also be observed among the threespecimen geometries described in this test method.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded
5、 as thestandard.The values given in parentheses are given forinformation only.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practice
