1.1
This standard applies to mineral or white spirits type of petroleum distillate
suitable for general use as a paint and varnish thinner. It can also be used
for similar types of coating materials that do not require special thinners,
such as low flash or high solvency thinners.
1.2
This thinner may be used to clean brushes and spraying equipment where it is a
specified reducer for the…
Standard Practice for Exposing Plastics to a Simulated Soil Environment
This National Standard of Canada is based on draft ASTM Standard D3826.
1. Scope
1.1
This Standard outlines a method for determining the effect of exposure to a
simulated soil on the properties of plastics in the form of moulded and/or
fabricated articles, tubes, rods, sheets, and film. Changes in visual,
chemical, and mechanical properties may be determined by the applicable method
(…
Standard Practice for Dilute-Solution Viscosity of Photodegradable Polystyrene
Scope
Z217.1
1.1 This practice outlines a method for the determination of the dilute solution viscosity of polystyrene products in tetrahydrofuran (THF). It is applicable to nondegraded and photodegraded polystyrene samples. It is used for the determination of relative viscosity (viscosity ratio), inherent viscosity (logarithmic viscosity number), intrinsic viscosity (limiting…
Test Method for Tumbling Friability of Degradable Polystyrene Foams
1. Scope
1.1
This method determines the degradation of polystyrene foams by measuring mass
loss due to a combination of abrasion and impact produced by a laboratory
tumbling device.
1.2
The values stated in metric (SI) units are to be regarded as the standard. The
values in parentheses are provided for information only.
1.3
This Standard does not purport to address all of the…
Textile Test Methods Quantitative Analysis of Fibre Mixtures - Binary
Mixtures Containing Acrylic...
1.1 This method describes a procedure for the quantitative analysis of binary
mixtures of acrylic with modacrylic fibres, by removal of the modacrylic
component.
1.2 If the types of fibres present in the mixtures are not known, they must be
identified before quantitative analysis is undertaken (par. 10.1).
1.3 The accuracy of the results obtained with this method will be decreased by…
Rubber and plastics hoses and hose assemblies — Guide to selection, storage, use and maintenance
Lays down recommendations intended to maintain hoses and hose assemblies, prior to use, in a condition as close as possible to their condition upon receipt and to obtain the maximum service life under normal operating conditions.
Guide for determining the effects of ionizing radiation on insulating materials - Part 2: Procedures...
Specifies the controls which shall be maintained over the exposure conditions during and following the irradiation of insulating materials with ionizing radiation prior to the determination of radiation-induced changes in physical or chemical properties. A number of potentially significant irradiation conditions are discussed and various parameters which can influence the radiation-induced…
This specification applies to dehydrated soup mixes and soup bases that can be reconstituted for use by adding water. Besides the mixes that require simmering, the instant mixes are included. The specification is intended to be used by food services in procurement of food.
The testing and evaluation of a product against this specification may require the use of materials and/or equipment that…
