1、Designation:D285722Standard Practice forDilute Solution Viscosity of Polymers1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2857;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses
2、 indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This practice covers the determination of the dilutesolution viscosity of polymers.There are several ASTMstandards(Test Methods D789,D1243,D1601,and D4603,and
3、Practice D3591)that describe dilute solution viscosityprocedures for specific polymers,such as nylon,poly(vinylchloride),polyethylene,and poly(ethylene terephthalate).Thispractice is written to augment these standards when problemsarise with which the specific procedure is not concerned,orwhen no st
