Rubber, unvulcanized - Determinations using a shearing-disc viscometer - Part 2: Determination of pre-vulcanization characteristics
The test consists of determining how the Mooney viscosity of the rubber compound changes with running time at a specified temperature relevant to the process for which the compound is to be used. The time at which the Mooney viscosity has increased by a specified number of units is recorded. The pre-vulcanization characteristics determined by this method provide a means of estimating how long compounded rubber can be maintained at high temperatures and remain processable.
