Standard Practice for Dilute-Solution Viscosity of Photodegradable Polystyrene/ Test Method for Tumbling Friability of Degradable Polystyrene Foams
可光降解聚苯乙烯稀溶液粘度的标准实施规程/可降解聚苯乙烯泡沫翻滚易碎性的试验方法
ScopeZ217.11.1This practice outlines a method for the determination of the di lute solution viscosity of polystyrene products in tetrahydrofuran (THF). It is applicable to nondegraded and photodegraded polystyrene samples. It is used for the determination of relative viscosity (viscosity ratio), inherent viscosity (logarithmic viscosity number), intrinsic viscosity (limiting viscosity number), and viscosity average molecular weight. These values will be used to quantify polystyrene degradation as part of a classification system.1.2This Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this Standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.Z217.21.1This method determines the degradation of polystyrene foams by measuring mass loss due to a combination of abrasion and impact produced by a laboratory tumbling device.1.2The values stated in metric (SI) units are to be regarded as the standard. The values in parentheses are provided for information only.1.3This Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this Standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
