Title:  Standard Test Method for Carbon Black Content in Olefin Plastics Scope:  This test method covers the determination of the carbon black content in polyethylene, polypropylene, and polybutylene plastics. Its use with acrylic or other polar monomer modifications which might affect the accuracy is not recommended. Determinations of carbon black content are made gravimetrically after pyrolysis of the sample under nitrogen. This test method is not applicable to compositions that contain nonvolatile pigments or fillers other than carbon black Status:  Active Adoption Date:  04-DEC-2020         Next Review Due:  29-NOV-2030 FSC/Area:  6810 Doc Category:   American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)   Reaffirmation Date:  01-DEC-2020
