This document specifies a method to determine the plasticity retention index (PRI) of raw natural rubber. The PRI is a measure of the resistance of raw natural rubber to thermal oxidation. A high resistance to thermal oxidation is shown as a high value of the index. PRI is not an absolute value and cannot give an absolute classification of plasticity number of different natural rubber after oxidation.

This document specifies two methods for the determination of volatile-matter content in raw rubbers by using a hot mill or an oven. These methods are applicable to the determination of the volatile-matter content in the “R” group of rubbers listed in ISO 1629. These are rubbers having an unsaturated carbon chain, for example natural rubber and synthetic rubbers derived at least partly from di-olefins. These methods can also be applicable to other raw rubbers, but in these cases it is necessary to demonstrate that the change in mass is due solely to loss of actual volatile matter and not to rubber degradation. The hot-mill method is not applicable to natural rubber, to synthetic rubbers which are too difficult to handle on a hot mill or to synthetic rubbers in powder or chip form. The two methods do not necessarily give identical results. Therefore, in the case of dispute, the oven method, procedure A, is the reference method. NOTE The applicability of each test method to various types of rubber is summarized in Annex A.

Method B is not suitable for polymer dispersions and rubber latices containing cationic surfactants. Methods A and B are also suitable for prevulcanized latices and compounded material. In case of dispute, the preferred method is method A (the ring method).

However, in the dry solids prepared from natural rubber latex, these materials can make a substantial contribution to the total nitrogen content.

1.1 This document specifies two thermogravimetric methods for the determination of moisture and other volatile-matter content in raw rubbers by using an automatic analyser with an infrared drying unit. 1.2 These methods are applicable to the determination of volatile-matter content in synthetic rubbers (SBR, NBR, BR, IR, CR, IIR, halogenated IIR and EPDM) listed in ISO 1629 and to various forms of raw rubber, such as bale, block, chip, pellet, crumb, powder and sheet. These methods might also be applicable to other raw rubbers only when the change in mass is proven to be due solely to loss of original volatile matter and not to rubber degradation. 1.3 The methods are not applicable to raw rubbers which need homogenizing as specified in ISO 1795. 1.4 The hot-mill method and the oven method specified in ISO 248‑1 and the methods specified in this document might not give identical results. In cases of dispute, therefore, the oven method, procedure A, specified in ISO 248‑1:2011, is the referee method. NOTE These methods can be useful for routine determinations, e.g. quality control, when the measurement conditions for the automatic analyser are fixed for a particular raw rubber or grade of raw rubber.

Since the soaps and organic acids present in the rubber are not single chemical compounds, the method gives only an approximate value for the soap and organic-acid content.

The method is applicable to raw, uncompounded latices of the above compositions and is suitable for rubbers having block polystyrene contents in the range from 5 % (by weight) to 100 % (by weight). Rubbers having block polystyrene contents of less than 5 % (by weight) may yield incorrect results unless a correction factor, based on information gained by working with such rubbers, is applied. The method is intended for use on gel-free rubbers, but it may be used on rubbers containing gel if it has been proved that the gel does not interfere.
