AS4720A: Batch Qualification Procedure for Tensile Strength, Elongation and Specific Gravity of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Resins, Virgin, Modified, Pigmented and Filled Compounds Used for Compression Molding

Scope

Content: This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers batch qualification procedure for virgin and compounded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resins used for compression molding. AS9100 requires virgin and modified PTFE as a testing material be representative of production PTFE and/or parts. The testing specified herein is limited to tensile strength, elongation and specific gravity. Any other tests required by the purchaser must be specified separately.

Rationale

Content: Committee AMP-P voted during the Spring 2012 Meeting that this document should be stabilized.
