Terminology3.1 DefinitionsMany of the terms in this test method aredefined in Terminology D907.4. Significance
6、 and Use4.1 During application, end users typically remove theadhesive from the container using 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 unac
7、ceptable be-cause they cannot be picked up by a trowel.4.2 Bead configuration is important in 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
8、 slump resistance of the adhesivewill allow an end user to know if an adhesive is capable of bothadhering well to the trowel during application and maintain anonflowing adhesive ridge.5.

Procedure8.1 Place the slump jig on a level table with the front faceupward and the plunger depressed to the limit of its travel.8.2 Apply the adhesive into the cavity of the slump jig. Usea steel spatula to level the adhesive flush with the surface of thetest jig.8.3
