1、Designation:D480094(Reapproved 2015)Standard Guide forClassifying and Specifying Adhesives1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4800;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number i
2、n parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This guide provides a classification system for tabulat-ing the properties of adhesives suitable for holding parts orassemblies together.The use of

4、sed.1.2 LimitationsThis classification system is intended to bea means of identifying adhesives.It is not intended for theselection of materials.Material selection should be made bythose having expertise in the adhesives field after carefulconsideration of the design and the performance required of
5、thepart,the environment to which it will be exposed,the attach-ment process to be employed,the inherent properties of thematerial not covered in this document,and the economicfactors.1.3 This classification system is based on the premise thatadhesives can be arranged into broad generic families usin
6、gbasic properties to arrange the materials into groups,classes,and grades.1.4 In all cases where the provisions of this classificationsystem would conflict with the referenced ASTM specificationfor a particular material,the latter shall take precedence.1.5 The values stated in SI units,as detailed i

16、letterdesignations as found in Table 1.NOTE2For example:CA=Cyanoacrylate.5.2.1 The generic family is based on the broad chemicalmakeup of the base materials.By its designation,certaininherent properties are specified.5.3 The generic family is classified into groups according,in general,to the chemical composition.These groups arefurther subdivided into classes and grades,as shown in thebasic property table that applies.The letter designation appli-cable is followed by a four-digit number indicat
