ASTM D 926 - 08 (Reapproved 2013) Standard Test Method for Rubber Property-Plasticity and Recovery (Parallel Plate Method)

Current edition approved Nov. 1, 2013. Published January 2014. Originally approved in 1956. Last previous edition approved in 2008 as D926 – 08. — 4 p.
This test method covers the determination of plasticity and recovery of unvulcanized rubber by means of the parallel
plate plastometer. Uncompounded, compounded, and reclaim rubber may be tested.
ISO 2007 and Test Method D3194 use a principle similar to this test method although the apparatus, test conditions, and procedure are different.
