1、Designation:D86511Standard Test Method forRubberDeterioration by Heating in Air(Test TubeEnclosure)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D865;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A
2、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 test method covers a procedure to determine thede
3、terioration induced by heating rubber specimens in indi-vidual test tube enclosures with circulating air.This isolationprevents cross contamination of compounds due to loss ofvolatile materials(for example,antioxidants)and their subse-quent migration into other rubber compounds(specimens).Theabsorpt
4、ion of such volatile materials may influence the degra-dation rate of rubber compounds.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated
5、 with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D412 Test Methods for Vulcanized Rubber and Thermoplas-tic Elasto

11、perties with time caused by oxidative andthermal ageing.This test method determines these character-istics in a way that is free of some of the complications inherentin community-type ageing devices,that is where numerouscompounds(specimens)are aged in the same enclosure.4.2 The isolation of compoun
12、ds(specimens)by the use ofindividual circulating air test tube enclosures prevents crosscontamination from volatile products and permits a morerepresentative assessment of ageing performance.4.3 Please refer to the Annex in Test Method D573 forimportant information on standard compounds used for pre
