Historical Standard: ASTM D3716-99(2006) Standard Test Methods for Use of Emulsion Polymers in Floor Polishes
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D3716
1. Scope
1.1 These test methods cover test procedures for emulsion polymers that are used in water-based floor polishes. The term 'emulsion polymers' is used primarily to denote those materials produced by regular emulsion polymerization techniques, but may be extended to those polymers that are subsequently emulsified or dispersed after polymerization. Unless otherwise noted, the tests may be used for any polymer or copolymer systems. The methods appear in the following order:
| Section | ||
| Sampling | ||
| Total Solids | ||
| pH Value | ||
| Apparent Viscosity | ||
| Sediment | ||
| Storage Stability | ||
| Freeze-thaw Stability | ||
| Specific Gravity |
This 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 and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
