GB/T8168—2008 6 Test samples 6.1 Sampling The test samples should be randomly selected from the finished products that have been placed for more than 24 hours. When their dimensions cannot meet the specified requirements, it is allowed to manufacture the test samples under the same conditions as the production conditions. 6.2 Size The test sample is a regular rectangular cube. The area of the upper and lower bottoms is at least 100mm×100mm. If conditions permit, it is recommended to select test samples with an upper and lower bottom area of 200mm×200mm. The thickness of the test sample should not be less than 25mm (when the thickness is less than 25mm, it is allowed to be stacked). When the test material is in the form of thin flakes or particles, a compression box (see Appendix A) can be used for testing. Its area is 150mm×150mm and the thickness is more than 100mm. 6.3 Quantity The number of test samples is generally selected according to the accuracy required for the test results and the material of the test samples.
