Rubber, raw — Determination of
volatile-matter content — Part 1: Hot-mill method and oven method

This document specifies two methods for the determination of volatile-matter content in raw rubbers by using a hot mill or an oven. These methods are applicable to the determination of the volatile-matter content in the “R” group of rubbers listed in ISO 1629. These are rubbers having an unsaturated carbon chain, for example natural rubber and synthetic rubbers derived at least partly from di-olefins. These methods can also be applicable to other raw rubbers, but in these cases it is necessary to demonstrate that the change in mass is due solely to loss of actual volatile matter and not to rubber degradation.

The hot-mill method is not applicable to natural rubber, to synthetic rubbers which are too difficult to handle on a hot mill or to synthetic rubbers in powder or chip form. The two methods do not necessarily give identical results. Therefore, in the case of dispute, the oven method, procedure A, is the reference method.

NOTE The applicability of each test method to various types of rubber is summarized in Annex A

Guidelines for application of multiple standards for fixed installation in explosive atmosphere

This document specifies guidelines on harmonizing the various standards, which are widely recognized and adopted across international jurisdictions. The scope of these guidelines encompass explosive atmosphere areas in industrial facilities, where flammable gases, vapours, liquids, combustible dusts, or ignitable fibers are present.

While these explosive atmosphere areas can be diverse and include facilities dealing with

manufacturing, gas processing refining and chemical processing, these guidelines exclude areas like military installations, hospitals, and other non-industrial contexts.

The primary objective of these guidelines are to provide a reliable resource for users navigating the application of multiple standards in explosive atmospheres. By offering a detailed comparison of requirements, specifications, terms, and conventions used in various standards, these guidelines aim to streamline the process of selecting, designing, and implementing systems within hazardous areas.

These guidelines are intended to be used by a wide range of professionals and stakeholders, including engineers, designers, technicians, safety officers, and regulators. Whether involved in the design, installation, operation, or maintenance of systems within explosive atmosphere areas, users can refer to these guidelines to better understand the requirements of different standards and how to reconcile them.
