Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren für die Bestimmung der Weichmacheraufnahme bei Raumtemperatur fest. Es ist anwendbar auf PVC für allgemeine Anwendungen und Extender Harze, bezeichnet mit „G“ und „F“ in ISO 24024 1 [1].
Dieses Dokument kann zur Bestimmung der Weichmachermenge, die ein Polymerisat bei Raumtemperatur unter Bildung einer trockenen Mischung aufnimmt, angewendet werden.

Plastiques - Résines d'homopolymères et de copolymères de chlorure de vinyle à usages généraux - Détermination de la prise de plastifiant à température ambiante (ISO 4608:2023)

Le présent document spécifie une méthode pour la détermination de la prise de plastifiant à la température ambiante. Il est applicable aux résines PVC à usages généraux et aux résines chargées désignées «G» et «F» dans l’ISO 24024-1.
Le présent document peut être utilisé pour déterminer la quantité de plastifiant qu’une résine absorbe à température ambiante pour donner un mélange sec.

Polimerni materiali - Homo- in kopolimeri vinilklorida za splošno uporabo - Določanje absorpcije mehčal pri sobni temperaturi (ISO 4608:2023)

Ta dokument določa metodo za ugotavljanje absorpcije mehčal pri sobni temperaturi. Uporablja se za smole iz polivinilklorida za splošno uporabo in polnilne smole z oznako »G« in »F« iz standarda ISO 24024-1.
Ta dokument je mogoče uporabiti za določanje količine mehčala, ki ga absorbira smola pri sobni temperaturi, da nastane suha mešanica.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use
of (a) patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed
patent rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received
