7、ific to This Standard:3.2.1 working life of an adhesive,nthe time elapsingbetween the moment an adhesive is ready for use and the timewhen the adhesive is no longer usable.4.Significance and Use4.1 To determine acceptable working life of an adhesive,two procedures are used.This practice is intended
8、to apply to:4.1.1 Self-contained liquid or paste adhesives,4.1.2 Adhesives requiring addition of a catalyst,hardener,filler,thinner,and so forth,or combinations of two or more ofthese materials just prior to use,and4.1.3 Powdered or flaked adhesives which are dissolved inwater or other solvent and a
