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.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard ISO 1628-1 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 61, Plastics, Subcommittee SC 5, Physical-chemical properties.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 1628-1:
1984), which has been revised to include
a) the determination of the K-value;
b) a procedure for the determination of the efflux times for several
solution concentrations by the addition of solvent to a given solution
held in the viscometer;
c) revised viscometer specifications.
ISO 1628 consists of the following parts, under the general title Plastics —
Determination of the viscosity of polymers in dilute solution using capillary
viscometers:
—  Part 1: General principles
—  Part 2: Poly(vinyl chloride) resins
—  Part 3: Polyethylenes and polypropylenes

Plastics — Determination of the viscosity of polymers in dilute
solution using capillary viscometers —
Part 1:
General principles
1  Scope
This part of ISO 1628 defines the general conditions for the determination of the reduced viscosity, intrinsic viscosity
and K-value of organic polymers in dilute solution. It defines the standard parameters that are applied to viscosity
measurement, and can be used to develop standards for measuring the viscosities in solution of individual types of
polymer. It can also be used to measure and report the viscosities of polymers in solution for which no separate
standards exist.
2  Normative references

3.2  Definitions applicable to any liquid
3.2.1  viscosity: The viscosity of a fluid sheared between two parallel plates, one of which moves relative to the
other in uniform rectilinear motion in its own plane, is defined by the Newton equation

th= g .(1)
where
is the shear stress;
t
is the viscosity;
η
dV

is the velocity gradient or rate of shear, given by where V is the velocity of one plane relative
g
dz
to the other and z the coordinate perpendicular to the two planes.
-1 -1
The dimensions of viscosity are: ML T .
.
The units of viscosity are: Pa s.
-3 .
For practical use, the sub-multiple 10 Pa s is more convenient.
NOTE —  Viscosity is usually taken to mean “Newtonian viscosity”, in which case the ratio of shearing stress to velocity
gradient is constant. In non-Newtonian behaviour, which is the usual case with high-polymer solutions, the ratio varies with the
shear rate. Such ratios are often called “apparent viscosities” at the corresponding shear rate.
3.2.2  viscosity/density ratio; kinematic viscosity, v: This ratio is defined by the equation
h
v = .(2)
r
where r is the density of the fluid at the temperature at which the viscosity is measured.

The dimensions of kinematic viscosity are: L T .

The units of kinematic viscosity are m s .

For practical use, the sub-multiple 10 m s , i.e. mm s , is more convenient.
3.3  Definitions applicable to polymer solutions

stated concentration) h and the viscosity of the pure solvent h , at the same temperature:

For practical use, the sub-multiple 10 m /kg, i.e. cm /g, is more convenient and the commonly quoted numerical
values for reduced viscosity (viscosity number) use these practical units.

The reduced viscosity is usually determined at low concentration (less than 5 kg/m , i.e. 0,005 g/cm ), except in the
case of polymers of low molar mass, for which higher concentrations may be necessary.

viscosity ratio to the polymer concentration in the solution:

case of polymers of low molar mass, for which higher concentrations may be necessary.

or of the inherent viscosity at infinite dilution:

NOTE —  The effect of the shear rate on the functions defined in 3.3.1 to 3.3.5 has been neglected, since this effect is usually
3 3
negligible for values of the reduced viscosity, inherent viscosity and intrinsic viscosity less than 0,5 m /kg, i.e. 500 cm /g.
Strictly speaking, all these functions should be defined at the limiting (preferably infinitely small) value of the shear rate.
3.3.6  K-value: A constant independent of the concentration of the polymer solution and peculiar to the polymer
sample. It is a measure of the average degree of polymerization.
K-value = 1 000 k .(8)

4 Principle
The data needed for the evaluation of the functions defined in 3.3 are obtained by means of a capillary-tube
viscometer. The efflux times of a given volume of solvent and of solution are measured at fixed temperature and

atmospheric-pressure conditions in the same viscometer. The efflux time of a liquid is related to its viscosity by the
Poiseuille-Hagenbach-Couette equation:

where
v is the viscosity/density ratio (see 3.2.2);
k is a constant of the viscometer;

less than 0,5 %, the viscosity ratio will be given by the so-called “efflux time ratio” .

The need for these constraints, and the consequences of not observing them, is developed in annex B.
5 Apparatus
5.1  Capillary viscometer, suspended-level Ubbelohde type.
The use of a viscometer having the dimensions given in figure 1 or 2 is strongly recommended. Furthermore, it is
strongly recommended that the size of the viscometer is chosen from among those listed in table 1. The choice is
determined by the viscosity/density ratio of the solvent at the temperature of the measurement, as indicated in
table 1. The next-smaller viscometer can also be used.
Other types of viscometer listed in ISO 3105 can be used, provided they give results equivalent to those given by
the particular size of Ubbelohde viscometer chosen on the basis of the criteria specified in the preceding paragraph.
In cases of dispute, an Ubbelohde viscometer shall be used.
With automated apparatus, fitted with special timing devices, it may be possible to obtain equivalent results with
larger sizes of capillary than those listed for the appropriate solvent viscosity/density ratio in table 1.
5.2  Viscometer holder, suitable to hold the viscometer firmly in the thermostatic bath (5.3) in the vertical position.
5.3  Thermostatic bath, holding a transparent liquid or vapour and of such depth that, during the measurement, no
portion of the test liquid will be less than 20 mm below the surface of the bath medium or less than 20 mm above
the bottom of the bath.
The temperature control shall be such that, within the range 25 °C to 100 °C, the temperature of the bath does not
vary from the specified temperature by more than 0,05 °C over the length of the viscometer, or between the
viscometers if several determinations are carried out simultaneously.
At temperatures higher than 100 °C, the tolerance shall be ± 0,2 °C.
5.4  Temperature-measuring device.
A liquid-in-glass, “total immersion” thermometer, reading to 0,05 °C in the range to be used and in a known state of
calibration, is suitable. Other thermometric devices of at least equal precision may be used.
5.5  Timing device.
Any timing device may be used providing that it can be read to 0,1 s and that its speed is constant to 0,1 % over
15 min.

6 Solutions
6.1  Preparation
The dissolution of the test sample of polymer in the solvent shall give a “true” solution, essentially free of microgels
and associated macromolecules. Polymer degradation shall also be minimized. For these reasons, it is necessary
for the dissolution procedure to be exactly defined and it is recommended that the following factors be specified:
a) the solvent and its pretreatment, if any;
b) the apparatus and the method of agitation;
c) the temperature range within which the system is maintained during the preparation of the solution;
d) the time interval necessary for the complete dissolution of the polymer without degradation, or at constant
degradation;
e) the stabilizer and/or the protective atmosphere used;
f) the conditions of filtration of the solution, if applicable.
6.2  Concentration
Where no standard exists, careful consideration shall be given to the choice of solvent and the solution
concentration. The solution concentration shall be chosen so that the ratio of the efflux time of the solution to the
efflux time of the solvent is at least 1,2 and less than 2,0.
NOTE —  A lower limit of 1,2 is necessary to ensure sufficient precision of the measured difference in efflux times. The upper
limit of 2,0 is necessary because, at higher molecular masses, there can be shear effects and non-linearity of the viscosity
number in relation to concentration.
More than one concentration can therefore be used for a given polymer/solvent system, depending on the molecular
mass of the polymer under test.

The concentration is preferably expressed in kg/m of solution or as the multiple 10 kg/m , i.e. g/cm .

The temperature shall be chosen with due regard to sufficient solubility and other technical requirements, but kept
constant for any particular polymer/solvent system. The temperature tolerance shall be specified. A temperature of
25 °C ± 0,05 °C shall be chosen whenever possible. If another temperature is used, it shall be chosen from the
values recommended in ISO 3205 and state
