Becauseit may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior ed

17、 the purchaser and the manufacturer. Toluene, xylene, mineralspirits, alcohols, etc., are used for the preparation of solutions of resins. For a given resin, the viscosity obtained will depend onthe solvent used. In case of dispute, both laboratories should use portions of the same batch of solvent.
18、7. Hazards7.1 Consult current OSHA regulations, suppliers Material Safety Data Sheets, and local regulations for all materials used inthis test method. practice.8. Preparation of Resin Solutions8.1 The procedure employed for dissolving solid resins will be dependent upon the chemical nature of the r
19、esin under test. Someresins will dissolve readily in cold solvent with moderate agitation, while others must be hot-cut in order to effect solution. Themethod of solution shall be agreed upon mutually between the purchaser and the seller since there may be differences in solubilityor viscosity betwe
20、en solutions prepared with and without heat. The solvent concentration may vary from 30 to 90 % and isgenerally selected to give a solution having a viscosity between 5 and 300 s. With hard resin use only material taken from freshlybroken lumps. Do not use crushed or powdered material from the resin
21、 sample container.8.2 Cold-Cut SolutionsBecause it is not easy to tell when solution of the resin is complete, proceed exactly in accordance withthe following directions, unless experience has shown that short cuts can be safely taken:8.2.1 Prepare 100 g of solution as follows: Weigh an 225-mL (8-oz
22、), screw-cap bottle, cap, and cellophane sheet to the nearest0.05 g. Weigh into the bottle to the nearest 0.05 g the appropriate amount of solvent (40 g for a 60 % solution).8.2.2 Weigh into a beaker to the nearest 0.05 g the correct amount (60 g for a 60 % solution) of the freshly crushed resin, pa
23、ssinga No. 10 (2000-m) sieve.8.2.3 Pour the resin slowly into the bottle containing the solvent, swirling gently so as to wet the resin as thoroughly as possibleas it is added. Place the cellophane sheet over the mouth of the bottle and screw on the cap tightly.8.2.4 Immediately shake vigorously by
24、hand and place on a shaker to give end-over-end agitation for an overnight period.8.2.5 Check the weight of the bottle, cap, cellophane and solution to make certain that none was lost during the mixing. Ifappreciable loss has occurred, discard the solution and prepare a fresh one.8.3 Hot-Cut Solutio
25、ns:8.3.1 Prepare 100 g of solution as follows: Weigh a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask with a ground joint to the nearest 0.05 g. Weighinto the flask to the nearest 0.05 g the appropriate amount of solvent (40 g for a 60 % solution).8.3.2 Weigh into the flask to the nearest 0.05 g the correct amount (60 g f
26、or a 60 % solution) of the freshly crushed resin passinga No. 10 (2000-m) sieve. Connect the flask to a suitable air or water condenser and warm gently on a hot plate with swirling asnecessary to prevent any charring or scorching of the resin. Usually, the solution will be complete in 15 or 20 min.8
27、.3.3 When the solution is complete, cool the flask, disconnect, and weigh. If over 0.1 g of solvent has been lost, add thenecessary amount and swirl to mix.8.3.4 If any air bubbles are present, allow the solution to stand until they disappear.8.4 Resins Supplied in SolutionThese resins ordinarily ca

However, if modification isnecessary, such as a reduction to a specified solids content, use a solvent or solvent combination suitable for use with resin undertest, as agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser.9.
