Standard Test Procedures Effect Of Immersion In Liquid - Rubber Hardness This test procedure measures the ability of rubber

to withstand the effect of liquids. It is designed for testing specimens of elastomeric vulcanizates which are from standard sheets (D31 !". #lair $ubber can supply these for the lining specified. In view of the wide variations often present in service conditions% this test may not give direct correlation with service performance unless the actual vessel considered for lining is utilized. &owever% this test method yields data on which to base 'udgment as to e(pected service quality.

Description of Test This test procedure provides a method for e(posing test specimens to the influence of liquids under definite conditions of temperature and time. The resulting deterioration is determined by noting the changes of volume% weight and hardness before and after immersion in the test liquid. Test onditions
