Standard Test Methods for Carbon Black<span class='unicode'>—</span>Sulfur Content
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
The total sulfur content of a carbon black is useful in determining whether a material meets a customer’s specifications, providing data for performing a sulfur material balance around a process for environmental monitoring and reporting, and in calculations for reconstructing a rubber composition from analytical data.
SCOPE
1.1 These test methods cover the determination of the sulfur content of carbon black. The following test methods are included:
