2、n.A number 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.Scope1.1 This practice covers the characteristic mechanical
3、 be-havior of rubbers at low temperatures,and outlines the condi-tioning procedure necessary for testing at these temperatures.1.2 One of the first stages in establishing a satisfactorytechnique for low temperature testing is the specification of thetime and temperature of exposure of the test speci

9、emperature testing of rubber can yield repeatableresults only if the preconditioning of the samples is consistent.Properties such as brittleness and modulus are greatly affectedby variations in time/temperature exposures.This practice isintended to provide uniform conditioning for the various lowtem
