Introduction
This purpose of this document is to identify changes resulting from exposure of a material to an
aerospace fluid that renders either the material or the fluid unsuitable for use.
This document can be used to determine the reactivity of system and component materials with
aerospace fluids.
While this procedure is an excellent quick screen test for long-term propellant compatibility, it is
semi-qualitative, and (if exposures exceed 12 months) long-term tests need to be used to quantify
degradation as a function of time under use conditions.

5.1.14.1.1 Procedure
This procedure is applicable for determining interactive reactions between propellants and materials
used in the design, construction, and operation of propellant storage, transfer, and flight systems. The
sample is immersed in the test fluid for 48 h at the maximum system temperature or 71 °C, whichever is
higher. This accelerated test provides semi-qualitative information. Tests used to evaluate the long-
term interaction of materials with reactive fluids shall be conducted for a period of time no less than
that of the anticipated time of use.
5.1.24.1.2 Safety
The proper safety equipment shall be worn by the technician performing the test. A face shield, gloves,
and a laboratory coat or apron shall be worn when handling the test fluids.
Test fluids shall be handled by engineering controls (e.g.,. operational fume hood) or as directed by the
appropriate Safety Data Sheetssafety data sheets for the test fluids.
The laboratory conducting the tests shall have a detailed emergency plan in the event of a runaway
reaction.
5.24.2 Test criteria
5.2.14.2.1 Screening test
Exposure of the material (screening test) to the fluid for 2 h at ambient temperature and pressure shall
not visibly change either the material or the fluid.

[1]1
The standard test temperature for the hydrazine propellants (see ISO 14951-6 and ISO 14951-7

comparison to literature information. Ot
