ASTM D 1417 - 16 Standard Test Methods for Rubber Latices - Synthetic

Current edition approved June 1, 2016. Published June 2016. Originally approved in 1956. Last previous edition approved in 2010 as D1417 – 10. — 11 p.
These test methods cover test procedures for synthetic rubber latices ABR, BR, CR, IIR, IR, NBR, NCR, NIR, PBR, PSBR, SBR, SCR, SIR, synthetic rubber latices having substitute carboxylic acid (COOH) groups on the polymer chain (X), and synthetic rubber latices that are reinforced (Y). Exceptions to the above are noted in the individual test procedures. The test methods include procedures for sampling, and for determining total solids, volatile unsaturates (residual styrene), pH value, surface tension, viscosity, coagulum, bound styrene, Mooney viscosity, mechanical stability, polystyrene reinforcement in contained polymer, and residual acrylonitrile content.
The nomenclature used in these test methods is in accordance with Practice D1418.
