1.1 这些试验方法评估了电缆填充物或电缆浸水化合物或两者与制造通常与填充物或浸水剂密切接触的电线电缆所用聚烯烃材料之间的兼容性。 1.2 这些试验方法有助于确保相容性，并验证填充或浸渍化合物的新配方对正在使用的其他聚烯烃材料没有有害影响，或者相反，使用这些方法来确保评估其他聚烯烃电线电缆材料的可能用途，使其不会因与已经使用的填料或浸渍剂接触而降解。 1.3 当以不同单位呈现两组值时，第一组中的值将被视为标准值。括号中给出的值是数学转换，仅供参考，不被视为标准值。 1.4 本标准并非旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的用户有责任在使用前制定适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 1.5 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒（TBT）委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认标准化原则制定的。 ====意义和用途====== 4.1 电缆填充和浸水化合物通常在室温下为半固态，在高温下为不同程度的流体。在电线电缆制造过程中，它们通常在液态和高温下使用。完工的电线或电缆在其使用寿命内暴露在各种环境条件下。如果不仔细选择，填充或浸没化合物的成分有可能在短期或长期降解其接触的材料。以下方法旨在将此类问题发生的可能性降至最低。 4.2 可能出现的一些影响包括但不限于: 4.2.1 完整电线和电缆中涂层金属屏蔽层或屏蔽层的分层。分层主要是测试温度和所用层压材料类型的函数，因此测试结果不太可能在常见系列的填充或浸渍化合物（例如，石油基填充或浸渍化合物）之间发生显著变化。 4.2.2 绝缘、护套、芯层等的物理性能退化。塑料材料退化的可能表现包括一些材料的脆化和其他材料的过度软化。 4.3 由于任何给定影响的大小都会有所不同，因此一些测试程序将比其他程序更为关键。因此，并非所有列出的程序都与所有相容性研究一起进行。按照产品规范的要求或生产商和买方之间的约定执行程序。

1.1 These test methods evaluate the compatibility between cable filling or cable flooding compounds, or both, and polyolefin materials used in the manufacture of wire and cable that are usually in intimate contact with the filler or floodant, or both. 1.2 These test methods are useful to ensure compatibility and to verify that new formulations of filling or flooding compounds will have no deleterious effect upon the other polyolefin materials being used or, conversely, use these methods to ensure that other polyolefin wire and cable materials are evaluated for possible use not degraded by contact with fillers or floodants already in use. 1.3 Whenever two sets of values are presented, in different units, the values in the first set are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. 1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 4.1 Cable filling and flooding compounds are normally semi-solid at room temperature and fluid in varying degrees at elevated temperatures. They are normally applied in a liquid state and at an elevated temperature during wire and cable manufacturing. The completed finished wire or cable is exposed to various ambient conditions during its useful life. If not carefully selected, components of filling or flooding compounds have the potential to degrade the materials they contact, short term or long term. The following methods are intended to minimize the chances of such problems occurring. 4.2 Some of the effects that might occur include, but are not limited to: 4.2.1 Delamination of coated metal shields or screens in completed wire and cable. Delamination is primarily a function of the test temperature and the type of laminant used, so test results are unlikely to vary significantly between filling or flooding compounds of a common family (for example, petroleum based filling or flooding compounds). 4.2.2 Degradation of physical properties of insulation, jackets, core coverings, etc. Likely manifestations of degradation of plastic material include embrittlement of some materials and excessive softening of other materials. 4.3 Since the magnitude of any given effect will vary, some test procedures will be more critical than others. It is not, therefore, intended that every listed procedure be performed with every compatibility study. Perform procedures to the extent required by product specifications or as agreed upon between the producer and the purchaser.
