WARNING — Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory
practice. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with
its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to
ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.
CAUTION — Certain procedures specified in this International Standard can involve the use or
generation of substances, or the generation of waste, that could constitute a local environmental
hazard. Reference should be made to appropriate documentation on safe handling and disposal after use.
This International Standard specifies general procedures for the preparation, measurement, marking, storage,
and conditioning of rubber test pieces for use in physical tests specified in other International Standards, and
the preferred conditions to be used during the tests. Special conditions, applicable to a particular test or
material or simulating a particular climatic environment, are not included, nor are special requirements for
testing whole products.
This International Standard also specifies the requirements for the time interval to be observed between
forming and testing of rubber test pieces and products. Such requirements are necessary to obtain
reproducible test results and to minimize disagreements between customer and supplier.
