1、Designation:D331204(Reapproved 2013)Standard Test Method forPercent Reactive Monomer in Solventless Varnishes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3312;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last
2、revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the percentof volatile reactive monomer having a vapor pressure exceed-ing 13.3 Pa(
3、0.1 Torr)at 25C in an uncatalyzed solventlessvarnish.Experience has shown this method does not accuratelydetermine percent reactive monomer when the vapor pressureis less than 13.3 Pa(0.1 Torr).1.2 The values stated in SI units are the standard.The valuesgiven in parentheses are for information only
4、.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.For a specificpre
