Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the appar-ent viscosity of h

3、ot melt adhesives and coating materialscompounded with additives and having apparent viscosities upto 200 000 millipascal second (mPas) (Note 3) at temperaturesup to 175C (347F).NOTE 1Although precision has not been studied, this procedure maybe adaptable to viscosities higher than the present 200 0

4、00-mPas limit andtemperatures above 175C (347F). Equipment described in this testmethod permits testing of materials having viscosities as high as 16 3 106mPas and provides temperatures up to 260C (500F).NOTE 2For petroleum waxes and their blends having apparent vis-cosities below 15 mPas, Test Meth

Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 apparent viscositythe viscosity determined by thistest method and expressed in millipascal seconds. Its valuemay vary with the spindle and rotational speed selectedbecause m

8、any hot melts are non-Newtonian.3.1.2 viscositythe ratio of shear stress to shear rate. Theviscosity of a liquid is a measure of the internal friction of theliquid in motion. The unit of dynamic viscosity is the pascalsecond. For a Newtonian liquid, the viscosity is constant at allshear rates. For a

9、 non-Newtonian liquid, viscosity will varydepending on shear rate.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 A representative sample of the molten material to betested is maintained in a thermally controlled sample chamber.Apparent viscosity is determined under temperature equilib-rium conditions using a precisio

10、n rotating spindle type viscom-eter. Data obtained at several temperatures can be plotted onappropriate semi-logarithmic graph paper and apparent viscos-ity at intermediate temperatures can be estimated.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method distinguishes between hot melts havingdifferent appar

11、ent viscosities. It is believed that apparentviscosity determined by this procedure is related to flowperformance in application machinery operating under condi-tions of low shear rate. Apparent viscosity as determined bythis test method may not correlate well with end-use applica-tions where high s

12、hear rates are encountered.5.2 Materials of the type described in this procedure may bequite non-Newtonian and as such, the apparent viscosity willbe a function of shear rate under the conditions of test.Although the viscometer described in this test method gener-ally operates under conditions of re

13、latively low shear rate,differences in shear effect can exist depending upon the spindleand rotational speed conditions selected for the test program.Maximum correlation between laboratories, therefore, dependsupon testing under conditions of equivalent shear.5.3 Approximate shear rates using variou

Calibration7.1 The viscometer is precalibrated using Newtonian fluidsby the manufacturer. No zero adjustment is provid

18、ed, sinceexperience has shown that the zero point will not vary due tochanges in the spring. The viscometer and spindles are preci-sion equipment and should be kept from undue shock andmishandling. Physical damage to the instrument will oftenreveal itself as erratic or no oscillation of the pointer

19、when theinstrument, with or without the spindle in place, is operated inair. When operating normally, the pointer will be stable andhave free oscillation about the zero point in air.7.2 The instrument may be further calibrated using standardreference fluids. Suitable fluids are available in nominalv

20、iscosities up to 15 000 mPas at 149C (300F).5The proce-dure for instrument calibration using standard reference fluidsis that encompassed by this test method. Results obtained usingstandard reference fluids should not deviate from the nominalviscosity by more than 2 %.7.3 The temperature controller

21、of the type recommended forthis procedure is factory calibrated and has control capabilityof 60.5 % of the control point (61.0C at 175C). To furthercheck the controller and further establish controller settings,use the following procedure: Place a sufficient quantity of lowviscosity (500 mPas or les

Viscometer scalereadings must be within the 10 to

27、 95 range.NOTE 6Care must be taken in the storage and handling of spindlesand assemblies. Protect them from dust, corrosive deposits, and mechani-cal abuse. Avoid touching the calibrated section of the spindle with thehands. Clean the spindle and sample chamber thoroughly after each use.A recommende

Melt the sample in an oven set at the desiredtest temperature or in t
