    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    1.1This test method covers the determination of black polyethylene compounds containing channel or furnace black. It is not applicable to thermal black.

    1.2This test method is not suitable for plastics that char on pyrolysis.

    1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.

    1.4This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific hazard statements are given in Section 7.

    Note 1:There is no known ISO equivalent to this standard.

    1.5This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
