ASTM D6909-03
Historical Standard: ASTM D6909-03 Standard Specification for High Temperature and Acid-Resistant Fluorocarbon Terpolymer Elastomer
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D6909
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers requirements for the fluorocarbon terpolymer elastomer used in the manufacture of expansion joints for use in coal-fired utilities and other high temperature industrial applications in which corrosive flue gases are present.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.3 This specification is intended as a reference procedure for evaluating the performance of these vulcanizates and can also be used for quality assurance testing before release of a lot based on agreement between supplier and purchaser.
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 and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory requirements prior to use.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
