7、aling applications.In general,oil migration orplasticizer bleed-out is not desirable.However,in some limitedinstances,a controlled amount of plasticizer migration issometimes desired in order to improve the penetration of thetape into the interstices of porous substrates.This test methodis designed
8、to indicate whether or not a preformed tape sealantexhibits oil or plasticizer migration and,if so,to what extent.6.Apparatus6.1 Vented Air Circulating Oven,that complies with Speci-fication E145 and is capable of aging samples at 70 6 2C(1586 3.6F)or 100 6 2C(212 6 3.6F).6.2 Filter Paper,3six sheet
