Material suppliers must certify molding compound properties to the specific GM Test Sampling Plan approved for their material. 3.3 COMPOUND PROPERTIES (NATURAL AND BLACK). See Table 1. 3.4 COMPOUND PROPERTIES COLORED). See Table 2. (INTEGRALLY 4 TEST PROCEDURES. 4.1 Test specimens shall be injection molded per IS0 294/l, as described in SAE 51639, unless otherwise specified. 4.2 Tests shall be conducted on dry-as-molded, unannealed test specimens. These specimens are to be sealed in water vapor impermeable containers immediately after molding and maintained in the sealed containers 23 f 2C until the time of testing, 24 h min after molding. Tests shall be made 23 f 2C unless otherwise specified. 4.3 COLORFASTNESS EVALUATION PROCEDURE. The color of each test specimen shall be measured per SAE J1545, CIELAB color space, 10 observer, illuminant D65, specular included, sphere geometry, before and after exposure. 4.4 A shear modulus plotted curve, as detined in SAE J1639, shall be provided with each GMP certification package. The temperature range at 5C intervals is -50 to +21O”C. 5 GENERAL INFORMATION. This standard was origi- nated by the Plastics Committee in December 1994.
