Plastics - Polypropylene and propylene-copolymers - Determination of thermal oxidative stability in air - Oven method (ISO 4577:2019)

This document specifies a method for the determination of the resistance of moulded test specimens of polypropylene and propylene-copolymers to accelerated ageing by heat in the presence of air using a forced draught oven.
The method represents an attempt to estimate the service life of parts fabricated from propylene plastics.
The stability determined by this method is not directly related to the suitability of the material for use when different environmental conditions prevail.
NOTE       The specified thermal levels are considered sufficiently severe to cause failure of commercial grades of heat-stable propylene plastics within a reasonable period of time. If desired, lower temperatures can be applied to estimate the performance of propylene plastics with lower heat stabilities.

Kunststoffe - Polypropylen und Propylen-Copolymere - Bestimmung der thermischen Oxidationsstabilität in Luft - Ofen-Verfahren (ISO 4577:2019)

Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Widerstandes geformter Probekörper aus Polypropylen und Propylen Copolymeren gegen beschleunigte Alterung durch Wärme in Gegenwart von Luft fest, wobei ein Ofen mit Zwangsbelüftung angewandt wird.
Mit dem Verfahren wird versucht, die Gebrauchsdauer von aus Propylen hergestellten Kunststoffteilen einzuschätzen.
Die nach diesem Verfahren bestimmte Stabilität steht nicht in direktem Verhältnis zur Gebrauchstauglichkeit des Werkstoffes bei Vorherrschen anderer Umgebungsbedingungen.
ANMERKUNG   Die angegebenen Temperaturbereiche werden als ausreichend hoch angesehen, um bei handels-üblichen Qualitäten wärmebeständiger Propylenkunststoffe innerhalb einer vertretbaren Zeit zur Schädigung zu führen. Falls dies gewünscht wird, können bei der Einschätzung der Gebrauchsleistung von Propylenkunststoffen mit geringerer Wärmestabilität niedrigere Temperaturen angewandt werden.

Plastiques - Polypropylène et copolymères de propylène - Détermination de la stabilité à l'oxydation à chaud dans l'air - Méthode à l'étuve (ISO 4577:2019)

Le présent document spécifie une méthode de détermination de la résistance d'éprouvettes moulées, en polypropylène ou copolymères de propylène, au vieillissement accéléré à la chaleur en présence d'air, dans une étuve à circulation d'air forcé.
La méthode représente une tentative d'estimation de la durée de vie en service des pièces en plastiques propyléniques.
La stabilité déterminée par la présente méthode n'est pas directement liée à l'aptitude du matériau à une utilisation dans différentes conditions d'environnement.
NOTE       Les niveaux thermiques spécifiés sont considérés comme suffisamment sévères pour entraîner la dégradation, en un temps raisonnable, des types commerciaux de plastiques propyléniques résistant à la chaleur. Si on le désire, des températures plus basses peuvent être appliquées pour estimer les performances de types de plastiques propyléniques de stabilité plus faible à la chaleur.

Polimerni materiali - Polipropilen in kopolimeri propilena - Določanje termično-oksidativne stabilnosti na zraku - Metoda s pečjo (ISO 4577:2019)

Ta standard določa metodo za določitev odpornosti oblikovanih preskusnih vzorcev iz polipropilena in propilen-kopolimerov proti pospešenemu staranju zaradi vročine v prisotnosti zraka s pomočjo peči s prisilnim vpihovanjem zraka. Z metodo se poskuša oceniti življenjska doba delov, izdelanih iz propilenskih polimerov. Stabilnost, določena s to metodo, ni neposredno povezana s primernostjo materiala za uporabo v različnih okoljskih pogojih.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 4577:2019(E)
Plastics — Polypropylene and propylene-copolymers
— Determination of thermal oxidative stability in air —
Oven method
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of the resistance of moulded test specimens
of polypropylene and propylene-copolymers to accelerated ageing by heat in the presence of air using a
forced draught oven.
The method represents an attempt to estimate the service life of parts fabricated from propylene
plastics.
The stability determined by this method is not directly related to the suitability of the material for use
when different environmental conditions prevail.
NOTE The specified thermal levels are considered sufficiently severe to cause failure of commercial grades
of heat-stable propylene plastics within a reasonable period of time. If desired, lower temperatures can be applied
to estimate the performance of propylene plastics with lower heat stabilities.

4 Principle
Accelerated ageing of test specimens is performed by heat in the presence of air using a forced draught
oven. Visual examination and determination of the time to failure is done.
Under the severe conditions of this test, the specimens undergo degradation at a rate dependent upon
the thermal endurance of the propylene plastic under examination.
For the purpose of this document, the time to failure of the material is taken as the number of days after
which the specimen shows localized crazing, crumbling and/or discoloration.
If a more reliable estimate of the life-temperature relationship of propylene plastics is required, the
test may be conducted at several temperatures and the data interpreted through use of the Arrhenius
ISO 4577:2019(E)
relation, by plotting the logarithms of times to failure against the reciprocals of the temperatures in
kelvins. Temperatures in the range from 100 °C to 150 °C, with intervals of 10 °C, are suggested for this
purpose.
