1、Designation:D3529M 10Standard Test Methods forConstituent Content of Composite Prepreg1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3529M;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.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the fibercontent,fiber a
3、real weight,matrix solids content and matrixcontent of composite material prepregs.Optionally,the matrixsolids content can also be determined after a volatiles contenthas been established.Volatiles content,if appropriate andrequired,is determined by means of Test Method D3530/D3530M.1.2 Procedure A
4、of this test method applies to compositeprepreg of primarily thermosetting matrices that can be ex-tracted in organic solvent.The reinforcement and filler must besubstantially insoluble in the selected extraction reagent.Thisprocedure may also be used for the same purposes to extractother matrix mat
5、erial types.1.3 Procedure B of this test method uses ignition loss of acomposite prepreg matrix and applies to organic matrix com-posite systems containing reinforcing fibers that do not changemass when exposed to the matrix combustion method.1.4 This test method assumes a two-part material system(p
6、lus volatiles)and does not distinguish between hybridreinforcements or matrices.Use with hybrid composites islimited to determination of total reinforcement or total matrixcontent.1.5 Matrix solids determination for Procedures A or B usesTest Method D3530/D3530M to determine volatiles content.1.6 Al
7、ternate techniques for determining constituent contentinclude Test Methods C613/C613M(resin content by Soxhletextraction)and D3171(used principally for consolidatedlaminates).1.7 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.
8、8 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 and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.Specific precau-tion
