Summary of Test Method4.1 The band at 965 cm1is characteristic of the trans-vinylene substituted group. The band at 908 cm1is character-istic of the terminal vinyl group.4.2 These

8、bands are not seriously overlapped by interferinggroups from the polymer. The vinyl absorbance at 908 cm1isclose to the absorbance band from terminal methyl groups onchains longer than ethyl, at 895 cm1. This interference isminimal for most products. Inclusion of the bromination andspectral subtract

9、ion step from Test Method D3124 has beenfound to improve the results for some very low densityproducts.4.3 Integrated absorbance is used in this test method.Integrated absorbance is found by integrating the spectrumover the absorbance band when the spectrum is plotted asabsorbance versus frequency,

Most spectral manipu-lation software contains algorithms for adequately determiningbaseline corrected integrated absorbencies.4.4 Calibration is performed using a solution of 1-octene fornormal vinyl groups, and trans-3-hexene for trans-vinylenegroups.5.
