Introduction
Standard Framework and Technology Evolution
As the first special specification for door seal materials for household refrigeration appliances, this standard marks a breakthrough in the standardization of elastomeric material applications in my country. Compared with the QB/T5370-2019 industry standard, new practical indicators such as antibacterial and mildew resistance (antibacterial rate ≥ 90%) and oil resistance (cream/soybean oil test) are added.
Comparison of core performance indicators
| Test items | Indicator requirements | Test methods | Technical breakthrough points |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tensile strength | ≥8MPa | GB/T528 | 15% higher than the industry standard |
| Low-temperature brittleness | ≤-40℃ | GB/T15256 | Adapt to cold climate requirements |
| Compression set | ≤30% | GB/T7759.1 | Ensure long-term sealing effect |
Analysis of key test methods
Case of detergent resistance test
Using the QB/T5370-2019 method, after the sample is immersed in a 5% detergent solution for 24 hours, it is required that the surface has no softening and swelling phenomenon. A Ningbo company has increased the chemical resistance of the material by 40% by adding nano-silicon dioxide filler.
Key points for the implementation of antibacterial performance
According to GB21551.2, the antibacterial rate against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus must reach more than 90%. It is recommended to pay attention to the compatibility treatment with the TPE substrate when adding silver ion antibacterial agent (dosage 0.8-1.2%).
Production process control suggestions
- Mixing stage: Temperature is controlled at 160-180℃ to avoid decomposition of heat-sensitive additives
- Granulation moisture content: Need to be <0.3% (GB/T2941 regulation requirement)
- Batch management: It is recommended to take samples every 2 hours to test the melt index (MI)
Special requirements for packaging, storage and transportation
The standard clearly stipulates that moisture-proof composite packaging (polyethylene lining + woven cloth outer layer) must be used. In the case of Ningbo Port export, vacuum packaging can extend the storage period to 18 months. Special attention should be paid to isolation from acidic and alkaline substances during transportation.
