ASTM D1824 – Standard Test Method for Apparent Viscosity of Plastisols and Organosols at Low Shear Rates
Description:
Significance and Use
5.1 The suitability of a dispersion resin for any given application process is dependent upon its viscosity characteristics.
5.2 The viscosity defines the flow behavior of a plastisol or organosol under low shear. This viscosity relates to the conditions encountered in pouring, casting, molding, and dipping processes.
Scope
1.1 This test method covers the measurement of plastisol and organosol viscosity at low shear rates.
1.2 Apparent viscosity at high shear rates is covered in Test Method D1823.
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
