10、 mixes, weigh the rubber and carbon black to the nearest 1.0 g, thesulfur and accelerators to the nearest 0.02 g, and all other compounding materialsto the nearest 0.1 g.EFor MIM batches weigh the rubber carbon black to the nearest 0.1 g, thecompounding material blend to the nearest 0.01 g, and indi

11、vidual compoundingmaterials, if used, to the nearest 0.001 g. For the MIM procedure, it is recom-mended that a blend of compounding materials, including black, be prepared toimprove accuracy in the weighing of these materials. This material blend is pre-pared by blending a proportional mass of each

12、material in a dry powder such as abiconical blender or vee blender. A mortar and pestle may be used for blendingsmall quantities.5.
