Summary of Test Method4.1 The crumb rubber sample is extracted in hot acetone perTest Methods D 297 and dried at 70 6 2C in a forced-ventilating air oven for 16 6 1 h. The dried crumb rubber isswollen in a solvent (for examples of polymer-solvent pairing,
7、see Appendix X1) with reagent grade purity, selection based onrubber type, for 24 h at room temperature. The solvent isreplaced with fresh solvent three times during the swellingprocess. After swelling, the solvent is wiped quickly from thesurface of the swollen crumb rubber using a clean paper towe
