1、Designation: D 7131 05An American National StandardStandard Test Method forDetermination of Ion Exchange Capacity (IEC) in GraftedBattery Separator1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 7131; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,

2、in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method evaluates an important characteristic ofpolyolefin or other fib

3、rous nonwoven sheet material intendedfor use in alkaline battery separator applications. The hydro-philic properties of the material are enhanced by grafting afunctional group onto the polyolefin, and this test method is theprimary test method to determine the treatment level, that is,level of monom

This test methodcan also be used for film or membranes1.2 This test method is intended primarily for testingcopolymer-grafted polyolefin materials used as battery separa-tors, but could be used for any grafted material. Theseseparators have radiation-initiated graftin
