1、Designation:D622621Standard Test Method forOpen Cell Content of Rigid Cellular Plastics1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6226;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in p
2、arentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers cellular plastics,which arecomposed of membranes or walls of polymer separating smallcavities or cells.These cells may be int
3、erconnecting(opencell),non-connecting(closed cell),or any combination of thesetypes.This test method determines numerical values for opencells.It is a porosity determination,measuring the accessiblecellular volume of a material.The remaining volume is thatoccupied by closed cells and cell walls.Sinc
4、e any convenientlysized specimen is typically obtained by some cutting operation,a fraction of the closed cells will be opened by specimenpreparation and will be included as open cells,(see Note 2).1.2 This test method provides good accuracy on predomi-nantly highly open-celled materials.By not acco
5、unting forclosed cells that were opened during specimen preparation,theaccuracy decreases as the closed cell content increases and asthe cell size increases.1.3 The values as stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.The values in parentheses are given for referenceonly.1.4 This standard
6、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 practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.NOTE1This test method
7、and ISO 4590 use the same basic principlesbut are significantly different in experimental detail.NOTE2Two procedures for correcting for cells opened duringspecimen preparation are described in Appendix X1.1.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized
