ASTM D4325 Standard Test Methods for Nonmetallic Semi-Conducting and Electrically Insulating Rubber Tapes
ASTM D4325非金屬半導體電絕緣橡膠帶測試方法
The physical and electrical properties, including break strength, elongation, dielectric strength, dissipation factor, permittivity, fusion, etc., will vary with temperature and moisture content. Control the temperature and moisture content of the sample for these test methods to yield consistent and reproducible results.
