1.1 This specification covers certain requirements for natural rubber gloves used in conducting medical examinations and diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. It also covers natural rubber gloves used in handling contaminated medical material. 1.2 This specification provides for...
This specification covers certain requirements for packaged sterile rubber surgical gloves of the natural rubber latex type (Type 1) and of the synthetic rubber latex type (Type 2). The gloves shall be manufactured from any rubber polymer compound, with the inside and...
This specification covers an ethylene propylene rubber in the form of molded rings, molded compression seals, molded O-ring cord, and molded-in-place gaskets for aeronautical and aerospace applications.
4.1 MBT is commonly used as an accelerator for rubber and latex vulcanization. The purity of MBT may be of importance in predicting performance in rubber compounds and this test method is designed to assess the purity of MBT. 4.2 This test method may be used as a quality control tool...
1.1 These test methods cover the chemical analysis of extractables from synthetic rubbers and are intended for general use on solid uncompounded styrene-butadiene copolymers commonly referred to as SBR. Analysis of other synthetic rubbers is also possible with some of these test...
1.1 These test methods cover the determination of the melting range of commercial rubber processing chemicals either by use of capillary melting point tubes or by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of...
5.1 This test method is intended for use in quality control, material screening, and related problem solving where a compositional analysis, or comparison to a known material, is desired. 5.2 The parameters described are guidelines and may be altered to suit the analysis of other rubber...
This SAE Standard covers steel wire reinforced rubber hose assemblies using connectors specified in SAE J516 for use in hydraulic systems using petroleum based hydraulic fluids with maximum working pressures of 1.7 to 42 MPa. See Part 2, Table 7 for hose operating temperature ranges and...
1.1 This practice covers the determination of bromine and chlorine in rubber. 1.2 This procedure is applicable to raw or cured NR, SBR, BR, IR, IIR, CIIR, BIIR, and EPDM rubbers and blends of these. 1.3 Iodine interferes, but substances such as Zn2+, S, CN-, and (CO3)2 - do not. 1.4...
5.1 It is important for rubber compounders to know the extent of devulcanization a rubber might have undergone during recycling. It allows the compounder to determine if more curing agents are needed during mixing of devulcanized rubber when used either as partial replacement...
4.1 For quality control and classification purposes, it is required to determine the composition of recycled vulcanizate particulate rubber. 4.2 This practice provides references for standard test methods for composition analysis of rubber and offers a guide for methods widely applied...
4.1 The bound styrene test is a measure of the bound monomeric composition of the rubber. It is used as a check on the accuracy of monomer charging and also as a guide to the uniformity of the product, since the bound styrene content affects the physical properties.
1.1 These test methods cover the determination of the purity of present commercially available rubber chemical accelerators in the range from 80?% to 100?% by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using ultraviolet detection and external standard calculations. 1.2 Expertise in HPLC...
1.1 This test method covers the percentage of residual unsaturation (double bonds in unhydrogenated butadiene) in hydrogenated nitrile rubber and is based on infrared examination of rubber films cast from solution. 1.2 This test method is applicable to all grades of hydrogenated...
1.1 This test method covers the Wiijs procedure for the determination of unsaturation (iodine value) in hydrogenated nitrile rubbers. 1.2 This test method is applicable only to those hydrogenated nitrile rubbers derived from copolymers of acrylonitrile and butadiene. 1.3 Iodine values...
