Plastics - Determination of the viscosity of polymers in dilute solution using capillary viscometers - Part 2: Poly(vinyl chloride) resins (ISO 1628-2:2020)
1.1 This document specifies conditions for the determination of the reduced viscosity (also known
as viscosity number) and K-value of PVC resins. It is applicable to resins in powder form which consist
of homopolymers of the monomer vinyl chloride and copolymers, terpolymers, etc., of vinyl chloride
with one or more other monomers, but where vinyl chloride is the main constituent. The resins may
contain small amounts of unpolymerized substances (e.g. emulsifying or suspending agents, catalyst
residues, etc.) and other substances added during the course of the polymerization. This document
is not applicable, however, to resins having a volatile-matter content in excess of 0,5 % ± 0,1 %, when
determined in accordance with ISO 1269. In addition to this, it is not applicable to resins which are not
entirely soluble in cyclohexanone.
1.2 The reduced viscosity and K-value of a particular resin are related to its molecular mass, but the
relationship varies depending on the concentration and type(s) of other monomer(s) present. Hence,
homopolymers and copolymers having the same reduced viscosity or K-value might not have the same
molecular mass.
1.3 The values determined for reduced viscosity and K-value, for a particular sample of PVC resin, are
influenced differently by the concentration of the solution chosen for the determination. Hence the use
of the procedures described in this document only gives values for reduced viscosity and K-value that are
comparable when the concentrations of the solutions used are identical.
1.4 Limiting viscosity number is not used for PVC resins.
1.5 The experimental procedures described in this document can also be used to characterize the
polymeric fraction obtained during the chemical analysis of a PVC composition. However, the values
calculated for the reduced viscosity and K-value in these circumstances might not indicate the actual
values for the resin used to produce the composition because of the impure nature of the recovered
polymer fraction.
Kunststoffe - Bestimmung der Viskosität von Polymeren in verdünnter Lösung unter Verwendung von Kapillarviskosimetern - Teil 2: Vinylchlorid-Polymere (ISO 1628-2:2020)
1.1 Dieses Dokument legt Bedingungen für die Bestimmung der reduzierten Viskosität (auch bekannt als Viskositätszahl) und des K Wertes von VC Polymeren fest. Es ist anwendbar auf Polymere in pulvriger Form, die aus Homopolymeren des Monomers Vinylchlorid und Co oder Terpolymeren usw. von Vinylchlorid mit einem oder mehreren anderen Monomeren bestehen, wobei aber Vinylchlorid den Hauptbestandteil darstellt. Die Polymere können kleine Mengen nicht polymerisierter Substanzen (z. B. Emulgatoren oder Suspensionshilfsmittel, Katalysatorreste usw.) sowie anderer Substanzen enthalten, die im Laufe der Polymerisation hinzugegeben werden. Dieses Dokument ist jedoch nicht anwendbar auf Polymere, die einen höheren Anteil als 0,5 % ± 0,1 % an flüchtigen Bestandteilen gemäß der Bestimmung nach ISO 1269 aufweisen. Darüber hinaus ist es nicht anwendbar auf Polymere, die nicht vollständig in Cyclohexanon löslich sind.
1.2 Die reduzierte Viskosität und der K Wert eines bestimmten Polymers sind abhängig von seiner molaren Masse, aber diese Abhängigkeit variiert mit der Konzentration und dem Typ anderer vorhandener Monomere. Deshalb ist es möglich, dass Homo und Copolymere mit gleicher reduzierter Viskosität oder gleichem K Wert nicht dieselbe molare Masse aufweisen.
1.3 Die für eine bestimmte Probe eines VC Polymers ermittelten Werte für die reduzierte Viskosität und den K Wert werden unterschiedlich von der für die Messung gewählten Konzentration der Lösung beeinflusst. Deshalb ergeben sich durch die Anwendung der in diesem Dokument beschriebenen Verfahren nur dann vergleichbare Werte für die reduzierte Viskosität und den K Wert, wenn die Konzentrationen der verwendeten Lösungen identisch sind.
1.4 Die Grenzviskositätszahl (en: limiting viscosity number) findet für VC Polymere keine Anwendung.
1.5 Die in diesem Dokument beschriebenen Bestimmungsverfahren können auch zur Charakterisierung der im Rahmen einer chemischen Analyse einer PVC Formmasse erhaltenen Polymerfraktion benutzt werden. Die so berechneten Werte für die reduzierte Viskosität und den K Wert könnten in diesem Fall jedoch von dem tatsächlichen Wert für das in der Formmasse enthaltene Polymer abweichen, weil die erhaltene Polymerfraktion im Allgemeinen verunreinigt ist.
Plastiques - Détermination de la viscosité des polymères en solution diluée à l'aide de viscosimètres à capillaires - Partie 2: Résines de poly (chlorure de vinyle) (ISO 1628-2:2020)
1.1 Le présent document spécifie les conditions particulières nécessaires à la détermination de la viscosité réduite (également appelée « indice de viscosité ») et de la valeur K des résines PVC. Il est applicable aux résines sous forme de poudres composées d'homopolymères de chlorure de vinyle monomère et de copolymères, terpolymères, etc., de chlorure de vinyle combiné avec un ou plusieurs autres monomères, le chlorure de vinyle étant cependant le principal constituant. Ces résines peuvent contenir de petites quantités de substances non polymérisées (telles qu'émulsifiants ou agents de suspension, résidus de catalyseurs, etc.) ainsi que d'autres substances ajoutées au cours de la polymérisation. Cependant, le présent document ne s'applique pas aux résines dont la teneur en substances volatiles est supérieure à 0,5 % ± 0,1 %, la détermination ayant été effectuée conformément à l'ISO 1269. Il ne s'applique pas non plus aux résines qui ne sont pas entièrement solubles dans la cyclohexanone.
1.2 La viscosité réduite et la valeur K d'une résine donnée sont liées à la masse moléculaire de cette dernière, mais cette relation varie suivant la concentration et le type de l'autre (des autres) monomère(s) également présent(s). De ce fait, il se peut que des homopolymères et des copolymères ayant la même viscosité réduite ou présentant la même valeur K n'aient pas la même masse moléculaire.
1.3 Les valeurs déterminées de la viscosité réduite et de la valeur K, pour un échantillon particulier de résine PVC, sont influencées différemment par la concentration de la solution choisie pour effectuer les déterminations. Ainsi, l'utilisation de modes opératoires décrits dans le présent document donne des valeurs pour la viscosité réduite et la valeur K qui ne sont comparables que lorsque les concentrations des solutions utilisées sont identiques.
1.4 L'indice limite de viscosité n'est pas utilisé dans le cas des résines PVC.
1.5 Les modes opératoires d'essai décrits dans le présent document peuvent également être utilisés pour caractériser la fraction polymérique obtenue au cours de l'analyse chimique d'une composition PVC. Cependant, il est improbable que les valeurs de la viscosité réduite ou de K obtenues par calcul dans ces conditions indiquent les valeurs réelles qui caractérisent la résine utilisée pour obtenir ladite composition, étant donné le caractère impur de la fraction polymérique récupérée.

Plastics — Determination of the viscosity of polymers in
dilute solution using capillary viscometers —
Part 2:
Poly(vinyl chloride) resins
1 Scope
1.1 This document specifies conditions for the determination of the reduced viscosity (also known
as viscosity number) and K-value of PVC resins. It is applicable to resins in powder form which consist
of homopolymers of the monomer vinyl chloride and copolymers, terpolymers, etc., of vinyl chloride
with one or more other monomers, but where vinyl chloride is the main constituent. The resins may
contain small amounts of unpolymerized substances (e.g. emulsifying or suspending agents, catalyst
residues, etc.) and other substances added during the course of the polymerization. This document
is not applicable, however, to resins having a volatile-matter content in excess of 0,5 % ± 0,1 %, when
determined in accordance with ISO 1269. In addition to this, it is not applicable to resins which are not
entirely soluble in cyclohexanone.
1.2 The reduced viscosity and K-value of a particular resin are related to its molecular mass, but the
relationship varies depending on the concentration and type(s) of other monomer(s) present. Hence,
homopolymers and copolymers having the same reduced viscosity or K-value might not have the same
molecular mass.
1.3 The values determined for reduced viscosity and K-value, for a particular sample of PVC resin, are
influenced differently by the concentration of the solution chosen for the determination. Hence the use
of the procedures described in this document only gives values for reduced viscosity and K-value that are
comparable when the concentrations of the solutions used are identical.
1.4 Limiting viscosity number is not used for PVC resins.
1.5 The experimental procedures described in this document can also be used to characterize the
polymeric fraction obtained during the chemical analysis of a PVC composition. However, the values
calculated for the reduced viscosity and K-value in these circumstances might not indicate the actual
values for the resin used to produce the composition because of the impure nature of the recovered
polymer fraction.

4 Principle
4.1 A test portion is dissolved in a solvent. The reduced viscosity and the K-value are calculated from
the efflux times for the solvent and the solution in a capillary tube viscometer.
5 Materials
−6 2 –1
5.1 Cyclohexanone, having a viscosity/density ratio (kinematic viscosity) between 2,06 × 10 m s
−6 2 –1 2 –1 2 –1
and 2,33 × 10 m s (2,06 mm s and 2,33 mm s ) at 25 °C. The specified boiling point shall be
155 °C. Store the solvent in the dark in a dark-coloured bottle fitted with a ground-glass stopper. Check
the kinematic viscosity before use.
6 Apparatus
6.1 The apparatus required to carry out viscosity measurements on polymers in dilute solution are in
accordance with ISO 1628-1:2009, Clause 5. In addition, the following particular items are required for
the procedures described in this document.
6.2 Viscometer. From the viscometers described in ISO 1628-1:2009, 5.1, model 1C, with a capillary
diameter of 0,77 (1 ± 2 %) mm, from ISO 3105:1994, Table B.4, shall be used as the reference viscometer.
Other viscometers described in ISO 1628-1 may be used provided the correlation between the chosen
viscometer and the reference viscometer has been established over the range of reduced viscosities and
K-values to be measured, and the results are corrected accordingly.
6.3 Graduated flask (one-mark volumetric flask), class A, as specified in ISO 1042, with a volume
of 50 ml.
NOTE The use of a flask calibrated at a temperature of 20 °C, as specified in ISO 1042, causes a systematic
error which can, however, be neglected.
6.4 Filter funnel, with fritted-glass filter disc of medium porosity (pore size 40 µm to 50 µm), or glass
funnel with paper filter.
6.5 Mechanical agitator, equipped with a heating device to keep the flask (6.3) and its contents at a
temperature between 80 °C and 85 °C.
As an alternative, a rotary agitator or shaker may be placed in an oven at a temperature between 80 °C
and 85 °C.
6.6 Analytical balance, accurate to 0,1 mg.
6.7 Temperature-regulated bath, capable of being set at 25,0 °C ± 0,5 °C in steps of 0,1 °C and
maintaining a stability of ± 0,05 °C around the set temperature.

6.8 Thermometer, with a sensitivity of 0,05 °C.
6.9 Time-measuring device, with a sensitivity of 0,1 s.
7 Sampling
Take a sample which is representative of the resin whose properties are to be determined and large
enough for at least two determinations.
8 Number of determinations
Carry out two complete determinations, starting each with a fresh test portion.
9 Procedure
9.1 Preparation of solution
General requirements for the dissolution of polymer in solvent are given in ISO 1628-1:2009, Clause 6.
3 3
Prepare a solution with a concentration of 5 kg/m ± 0,1 kg/ m at 25 °C ± 1 °C, as follows.
Weigh, to the nearest 0,2 mg, 0,250 g ± 0,005 g of resin and transfer it quantitatively to the 50 ml
flask (6.3). Add about 40 ml of cyclohexanone (5.1) to the flask, swirling the flask by hand to prevent
coagulation or the formation of lumps. Continue dissolution by agitating for 1 h between 80 °C and
85 °C using the agitator (6.5). Check visually that dissolution is complete. If gelatinized particles are
still visible, start again with a new portion of the resin. Cool the solution to 25 °C ± 1 °C and make up to
the mark with cyclohexanone at the same temperature. Mix the solution thoroughly by shaking.
Determine the actual concentration of the solution to an accuracy of ± 0,1 %.
If a mass of 0,250 g ± 0,000 25 g is taken and made up to 50 ml of solution as described above, Table A.1
in Annex A can be used to read off the reduced viscosity and K-value from the ratio of the efflux time of
the solution to that of the solvent (the so-called viscosity ratio).
Alternative methods for the preparation of the solution may be used, for example the addition of a
measured volume of solvent to a measured mass of test portion, provided that the values obtained for
the reduced viscosity and K-value can be shown to be equivalent to those obtained with the method
of solution preparation described above. Such alternative methods of solution preparation requires
the amounts of solvent and test portion taken to be determined by experiment, and can also require
compensation for loss of solvent by evaporation during the dissolution process.
With resins having K-values greater than 85, the ratio of the efflux time of the solution to that of
the solvent will exceed the maximum value of 2,0, which is contrary to the requirement specified in
ISO 1628-1:2009, 6.2. In order to ensure uniformity of testing for PVC, this non-conformity shall be
ignored, and all currently available resins tested using the same test-portion mass.
9.2 Determination of efflux times
The procedure is described in ISO 1628-1:2009, Clause 8.
The temperature of the thermostat (6.7) shall be set such that the actual temperature which is measured
by the thermometer (6.8) lies in the range 25 °C ± 0,5 °C. The measured temperature shall be stable to
±0,05 °C around the temperature at which the thermostat has been set.
When filling the viscometer, filter the solvent and the solution using a filter funnel or a glass funnel and
paper filter (see 6.4).

ISO 1628-2:2020(E)
Particular care shall be taken over viscometer cleaning, which shall be based on the procedure described
in ISO 1628-1:2009, Annex A. Efflux times with the control solvent cyclohexanone shall remain constant
to within 0,2 s for a given viscometer. With the solution, repeat the measurement of the efflux time until
two successive measurements differ by less than 0,25 %. Always discard the first efflux time reading.
NOTE This is a manual procedure. Proprietary equipment is available which will organize the charging of
the viscometer with solution and solvent and measure the respective efflux times automatically. The use of such
equipment is included in the scope of this document provided that all the procedures and verification checks
described above are followed by the automated procedure.

in the two determinations deviate by more than ± 0,4 % from the mean value, these results shall be
rejected and further determinations carried out with fresh test portions.

FINAL DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/FDIS 1628-2:2020(E)
Plastics — Determination of the viscosity of polymers in
dilute solution using capillary viscometers —
Part 2:
Poly(vinyl chloride) resins
1 Scope
1.1 This document specifies conditions for the determination of the reduced viscosity (also known
as viscosity number) and K-value of PVC resins. It is applicable to resins in powder form which consist
of homopolymers of the monomer vinyl chloride and copolymers, terpolymers, etc., of vinyl chloride
with one or more other monomers, but where vinyl chloride is the main constituent. The resins may
contain small amounts of unpolymerized substances (e.g. emulsifying or suspending agents, catalyst
residues, etc.) and other substances added during the course of the polymerization. This document
is not applicable, however, to resins having a volatile-matter content in excess of 0,5 % ± 0,1 %, when
determined in accordance with ISO 1269. In addition to this, it is not applicable to resins which are not
entirely soluble in cyclohexanone.
1.2 The reduced viscosity and K-value of a particular resin are related to its molecular mass, but the
relationship varies depending on the concentration and type(s) of other monomer(s) present. Hence,
homopolymers and copolymers having the same reduced viscosity or K-value might not have the same
molecular mass.
1.3 The values determined for reduced viscosity and K-value, for a particular sample of PVC resin, are
influenced differently by the concentration of the solution chosen for the determination. Hence the use
of the procedures described in this document only gives values for reduced viscosity and K-value that are
comparable when the concentrations of the solutions used are identical.
1.4 Limiting viscosity number is not used for PVC resins.
1.5 The experimental procedures described in this document can also be used to characterize the
polymeric fraction obtained during the chemical analysis of a PVC composition. However, the values
calculated for the reduced viscosity and K-value in these circumstances might not indicate the actual
values for the resin used to produce the composition because of the impure nature of the recovered
polymer fraction.

4 Principle
4.1 A test portion is dissolved in a solvent. The reduced viscosity and the K-value are calculated from
the efflux times for the solvent and the solution in a capillary tube viscometer.
5 Materials
−6 2 –1
5.1 Cyclohexanone, having a viscosity/density ratio (kinematic viscosity) between 2,06 × 10 m s
−6 2 –1 2 –1 2 –1
and 2,33 × 10 m s (2,06 mm s and 2,33 mm s ) at 25 °C. The specified boiling point shall be
155 °C. Store the solvent in the dark in a dark-coloured bottle fitted with a ground-glass stopper. Check
the kinematic viscosity before use.
6 Apparatus
6.1 The apparatus required to carry out viscosity measurements on polymers in dilute solution are in
accordance with ISO 1628-1:2009, Clause 5. In addition, the following particular items are required for
the procedures described in this document.
6.2 Viscometer. From the viscometers described in ISO 1628-1:2009, 5.1, model 1C, with a capillary
diameter of 0,77 mm ± 2 %, from ISO 3105:1994, Table B.4, shall be used as the reference viscometer.
Other viscometers described in ISO 1628-1 may be used provided the correlation between the chosen
viscometer and the reference viscometer has been established over the range of reduced viscosities and
K-values to be measured, and the results are corrected accordingly.
6.3 Graduated flask (one-mark volumetric flask), class A, as specified in ISO 1042, with a volume
of 50 ml.
NOTE The use of a flask calibrated at a temperature of 20 °C, as specified in ISO 1042, causes a systematic
error which can, however, be neglected.
6.4 Filter funnel, with fritted-glass filter disc of medium porosity (pore size 40 µm to 50 µm), or glass
funnel with paper filter.
6.5 Mechanical agitator, equipped with a heating device to keep the flask (6.3) and its contents at a
temperature between 80 °C and 85 °C.
As an alternative, a rotary agitator or shaker may be placed in an oven at a temperature between 80 °C
and 85 °C.
6.6 Analytical balance, accurate to 0,1 mg.
6.7 Temperature-regulated bath, capable of being set at 25,0 °C ± 0,5 °C in steps of 0,1 °C and
maintaining a stability of ± 0,05 °C around the set temperature.

6.8 Thermometer, with a sensitivity of 0,05 °C.
6.9 Time-measuring device, with a sensitivity of 0,1 s.
7 Sampling
Take a sample which is representative of the resin whose properties are to be determined and large
enough for at least two determinations.
8 Number of determinations
Carry out two complete determinations, starting each with a fresh test portion.
9 Procedure
9.1 Preparation of solution
General requirements for the dissolution of polymer in solvent are given in ISO 1628-1:2009, Clause 6.
3 3
Prepare a solution with a concentration of 5 g/cm ± 0,1 g/ cm at 25 °C ± 1 °C, as follows.
Weigh, to the nearest 0,2 mg, 0,250 g ± 0,005 g of resin and transfer it quantitatively to the 50 ml
flask (6.3). Add about 40 ml of cyclohexanone (5.1) to the flask, swirling the flask by hand to prevent
coagulation or the formation of lumps. Continue dissolution by agitating for 1 h between 80 °C and
85 °C using the agitator (6.5). Check visually that dissolution is complete. If gelatinized particles are
still visible, start again with a new portion of the resin. Cool the solution to 25 °C ± 1 °C and make up to
the mark with cyclohexanone at the same temperature. Mix the solution thoroughly by shaking.
Determine the actual concentration of the solution to an accuracy of ± 0,1 %.
If a mass of 0,250 g ± 0,000 25 g is taken and made up to 50 ml of solution as described above, Table 1
can be used to read off the reduced viscosity and K-value from the ratio of the efflux time of the solution
to that of the solvent (the so-called viscosity ratio).
Alternative methods for the preparation of the solution may be used, for example the addition of a
measured volume of solvent to a measured mass of test portion, provided that the values obtained for
the reduced viscosity and K-value can be shown to be equivalent to those obtained with the method
of solution preparation described above. Such alternative methods of solution preparation requires
the amounts of solvent and test portion taken to be determined by experiment, and can also require
compensation for loss of solvent by evaporation during the dissolution process.
With resins having K-values greater than 85, the ratio of the efflux time of the solution to that of
the solvent will exceed the maximum value of 2,0, which is contrary to the requirement specified in
ISO 1628-1:2009, 6.2. In order to ensure uniformity of testing for PVC, this non-conformity shall be
ignored, and all currently available resins tested using the same test-portion mass.
9.2 Determination of efflux times
The procedure is described in ISO 1628-1:2009, Clause 8.
The temperature of the thermostat (6.7) shall be set such that the actual temperature which is measured
by the thermometer (6.8) lies in the range 25 °C ± 0,5 °C. The measured temperature shall be stable to
−0,05 °C around the temperature at which the thermostat has been set.
When filling the viscometer, filter the solvent and the solution using a filter funnel or a glass funnel and
paper filter (see 6.4).

ISO/FDIS 1628-2:2020(E)
Particular care shall be taken over viscometer cleaning, which shall be based on the procedure described
in ISO 1628-1:2009, Annex A. Efflux times with the control solvent cyclohexanone shall remain constant
to within 0,2 s for a given viscometer. With the solution, repeat the measurement of the efflux time until
two successive measurements differ by less than 0,25 %. Always discard the first efflux time reading.
NOTE This is a manual procedure. Proprietary equipment is available which will organize the charging of
the viscometer with solution and solvent and measure the respective efflux times automatically. The use of such
equipment is included in the scope of this document provided that all the procedures and verification checks
described above are followed by the automated procedure.
10 Expression of results
10.1 Reduced viscosity
Calculate the reduced viscosity, I, for each test portion as specified in ISO 1628:2009, Clause 9, using
Formula (1):
tt−
0
I= (1)
tc
0
where
t and t are the efflux times, in seconds, of the solution and solvent, respectively;
0
3 3 3
c is the concentration of the solution, in 10 kg/m , i.e. g/cm .
Calculate the reduced viscosity I for the sample as the mean value of the two individual values obtained
in the two determinations, expressing the result to the nearest whole number. If the I values obtained
in the two determinations deviate by more than ± 0,4 % from the mean value, these results shall be
rejected and further determinations carried out with fresh test portions.
3 3
If the solution concentration is 5 g/cm ± 0,005 g/cm , it is more convenient to read off the values of I
3 −3 3
from Table 1, expressing I in (m /kg) · 10 , i.e. cm /g, rounded to the first place of decimals.
10.2 K-value
For each test portion, calculate the K-value as specified in ISO 1628-1:2009, Clause 9, using Formula (2):
2
15,lg,ηη−+11++21+ 51lg ,l5 gη
rr r
c
K = ×1000 (2)
150+300c
where
η t
is the ratio of the viscosities (efflux times) of the solution and solvent;
η ==
r
η t
00
t and t are the efflux times, in seconds, of the solution and solvent, respectively;
0
3 3 3
c is the concentration of the solution, in 10 kg/m , i.e. g/cm .
Calculate the K-value for the sample as the mean value of the two individual K-values obtained in the
two determinations, expressing the result to the first place of decimals. If the K-values obtained in the
two determinations deviate by more than ± 0,4 % from the mean value, these results shall be rejected
and further determinations carried out with fresh test portions.
3 3
If the solution concentration is 5 g/cm ± 0,005 g/cm , it is more convenient to read off the K-value from
Table 1, rounding to the second place of decimals.
