ASTM D 816 - 06 Standard Test Methods for Rubber Cements

American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Current edition approved May 1, 2006. Published May 2006. Originally approved in 1951. Last previous edition approved in 2001 as D 816 – 82 (2001). 6 p. These test methods cover tests to measure the properties of adhesives, commonly called rubber cements, that may be applied in plastic or fluid form and that are manufactured from natural rubber, reclaimed rubber, synthetic elastomers, or combinations of these materials. All tests are not to be considered as applicable to a particular type of adhesive nor is every test included that may be applicable to a particular type. The tests do provide standard procedures for evaluating the more important properties of the usual adhesives ordinarily classed as rubber cements.
