1、Designation: D 6005 03Standard Test Method forDetermining Slump Resistance of Carpet Adhesives1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6005; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A
2、 number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method describes a procedure to measureslump, or sag, resistance of a trowel-grade carpet adhesiveusing a button slump test
3、 apparatus.1.2 This test method provides a visual evaluation to relatetroweled bead profile and trowel pickup.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thes
4、afety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use4.1 During application, end users typically remove theadhesive from the container usi
6、ng the trowel and spread it ontothe desired substrate. Adhesives with good rheological charac-teristics, therefore, will allow trowel retention. Adhesives withpoor rheological characteristics tend to be unacceptable be-cause they cannot be picked up by a trowel.4.2 Bead configuration is important in
7、 order to provideproper wetting/contact of the carpet backing. Beads drawn witha trowel, which show a nonslumping ridge, are preferredbecause they allow good contact to both substrates.4.3 Measurement of the slump resistance of the adhesivewill allow an end user to know if an adhesive is capable of
