Method for determining flexural property changes of polymeric materials upon accelerated aging in refrigerant-lubricant mixtures.

Summary

A method for determining flexural property changes of small samples of polymeric materials upon accelerated aging in various refrigerants and or lubricants is described. Results obtained in the compatibility study of different polymers in R12 and R134a are reported. Effects of aging time and aging temperature are also determined. The described test method, along with visual observations, linear swelling and changes in hardness, are necessary in the interpretation of compatibility results from sealed tube tests.
