accordance with the test methods listed in Table V.

3.7 Physical properties. The density range and maximal water absorption of
the foam shall be as specified in Table I.

3.8 Fluid resistance. The foam shall be resistant to the fluids listed in

4. VERIFICATION

4.1 Verification alternatives. Alternative test methods, techniques, or

equipment, including the application of statistical process control, tool
control, or cost effective sampling procedures may be proposed by the
contractor. Acceptable alternative verification approaches shall be identified
in the contract.

4.2 Classification of inspection. The examination and testing of the foam

material shall be classified as follows:

a) First article inspection (see 4.2.1)

b) Conformance inspection (see 4.2.2)

4.2.1 First article inspection. First article inspection shall be performed

on the first production-representative samples of an order when a first
article sample is required (see 3.1). The first article sample(s) shall be
examined for all the provisions specified by the procuring activity, the
contract or the purchase order (see 6.2). This inspection shall consist of the
tests specified in table V.

3
 MIL-PRF-46194A

4.2.2 Conformance inspection. Conformance inspection for acceptance of rigid,

structural, closed cell foam shall meet all the provisions specified by the
procuring activity, the contract or the purchase order (see 6.2).

4.3 Lot size. Lot size shall consist of all foam material of the same density
produced from one batch during a single production run.

4.4 Sampling. Unless otherwise specified, at least one sample sheet which is
representative of each lot (4.3) shall be selected at random for conformance
testing. When material is supplied in thicknesses of less than 1 inch (2.5
cm), the supplier shall also furnish material from the same lot, not less than
1 inch (2.5 cm) thick for conformance inspection.

4.5 Water absorption test. Water absorption shall be determined on five

specimens selected at random from each density submitted for testing. Each
specimen shall be 2 inches by 2 inches by 1 inch thick (5 x 5 x 2.5 cm). The
specimens shall not be sealed or protected with any coating which would
inhibit moisture absorption. After drying as specified in 6.3, the specimens
shall be allowed to cool to room temperature (73.4 + 3.6oF) (23.0 + 2.0oC) in
an environmentally controlled (50 + 5% RH) room for 2 hours, and then shall be
weighed. The specimens shall then be placed into an environmental chamber at a
relative humidity of 85 + 2 percent and a temperature of 160 + 5oF (71 + 3oC).

Specimens shall be removed from the chamber periodically (but at least once a
week), allowed to cool to room temperature, then reweighed to determine weight
after exposure. The above procedure shall be repeated until the equilibrium
moisture level (saturation) is attained. Equilibrium shall be defined as two
consecutive weekly measurements indicating a moisture gain of less than 0.05
percent. Except for reweighing, wet conditioning shall not be interrupted.
Calculate moisture absorption for each specimen as: weight (percent) absorbed
= [(weight wet specimen - weight dry specimen)/(weight dry specimen)] x 100.
Calculate the average moisture absorbed.

4.6 Noncompliance.

4.6.1 Rejection. Unless otherwise specified where one or more test specimens
fail to meet the requirements of the specification, the lot represented by the
specimen or specimens shall be subject to rejection.

4.6.2 Retest. When a sampling plan is not provided or approved by the

procuring agency, where there is evidence that indicates that the specimen was
not representative of the lot of material, and when the contract does not
otherwise specify, at least two specimens shall be selected to replace each
test specimen which failed. All specimens so selected for retest shall meet
the requirements of the specification or the lot shall be subject to
rejection.

4.7 Test results. Test results shall be kept in the contractor’s file for the
duration of the contract.

5. PACKAGING

5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be

as specified in the contract or order (see 6.2). When actual packaging of

4
 MIL-PRF-46194A

materiel is to be performed by DoD personnel, these personnel need to contact

the responsible packaging activity to ascertain requisite packaging
requirements. Packaging requirements are maintained by the Inventory Control
Point's packaging activity within the Military Department or Defense Agency,
or within the Military Department's System Command. Packaging data retrieval
is available from the managing Military Department's or Defense Agency's
automated packaging files, CD-ROM products, or by contacting the responsible
packaging activity.

6. NOTES

(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature which

may be helpful, but is not mandatory).

6.1 Intended use. The foams which are specified in this document are rigid,
closed cell materials comparable in density to some types of honeycomb core.
This material may be a viable candidate for structural aerospace applications
whenever a core or filler is needed and in nonstructural applications
including formed configurations. Polymethacrylimide (PMI) foam has been used
to comply with the requirements of this specification.

6.2 Acquisition requirements. Acquisition documents should specify the

following:

a. Title, number and date of the specification

b. Type and class of material (see 1.2)
c. Issue of DoDISS to be cited in the solicitation, and if required,
the specific issue of individual documents referenced (see 2.2).
d. When first article is required (see 3.1).
e. Dimensions in SI and English units.
f. Sampling plan, if other than specified in 4.4
g. Packaging requirements (see 5.1).

6.3 Procedure for drying type I and type II foams. Dry foam sections and
panels in an air circulating oven at 250+ 10oF (121 + 5oC) for a minimum of 2
hours. Do not allow panels to come in contact with other panels in the oven
(do not stack panels). Separate each panel from the closest panel by not less
than one inch (2.5 cm). Arrange panels parallel to the direction of air flow.
Do not place panels directly on the bottom of the oven, or on any other piece
of nonperforated metal (which could restrict air flow). Place a piece of
perforated metal or heavy metal screen atop the panel to prevent warpage
during the drying cycle.

6.4 Procedure for heat treating type II foams. Prior to heat treating, dry
the material in accordance with 6.3. Heat treat the material immediately after
the drying cycle for the following times and temperatures: 48 hours @ 350 +
10oF (177 + 5oC) for class 2 and 3, 20 hours @ 320 + 10oF (160 + 5oC) followed
by 28 hours @ 350 + 10oF (177 + 5oC) for class 4 and 5, and 24 hours @ 350 +
10oF (177 + 5oC) for class 6. Do not allow panels to come in contact with
other panels in the oven (do not stack panels), and separate each panel from
the closest panel by not less than one inch (2.5 cm). Arrange panels parallel
to the direction of air flow. Do not place panels directly on the bottom of
the oven, or on any other piece of nonperforated metal (which could restrict
air flow). Place a piece of perforated metal or heavy metal screen on both

5
 MIL-PRF-46194A

sides of each panel to prevent warpage during the heat treating cycle. Heat
treating is a processing step involving extended exposure of foam to elevated
temperatures; heat treat under highly controlled conditions to ensure
dimensional stability of the foam.
